Y Warwwwwwwwwwws Beddgelert.
Some older readers will get that, younger readers probably won't!
Y Warws is a pretty famous outdoor gear shop in Beddgelert. They sell high quality walking, hiking, mountaineering etc clothing and equipment.
Lots of the clothing sold here is Gelert branded, produced locally, and with a good reputation in outdoorsey type circles.
Y Warws is also an excellent place for camping gear, tents, waterproofs, anything you might need to survive an adventure in Snowdonia if you're unlucky enough to visit during the rainy season (50 weeks approx per year, sometimes 52).
The stuff sold here isn't the cheapest, but it's quality. I have to be honest and say that the same high quality branded gear can pobably be found cheaper online, but for once I'd actually recommend visiting the shop, discussing your needs with the knowledgeable staff, and buying something from them instead of the cheapest option.
They not only sell good stuff, they also provide you with a service, buying advice, and will in my experience steer you toward what you need, not simply the items that make them most profit. read more
