There are a wide range of gardens to visit in the southern part of the Snowdonia National Park.  Gardens on the coast, with the challenges that they face, formal gardens, mountain gardens and those which specialise in certain plant types.  Cadair View Lodge log cabins make an ideal base when visiting gardens in Snowdonia.  Cadair View Lodge accommodation is within a half hour drive of most of these locations.
