No need for further introduction. If you have been there in June, a December visit is different, the snow should be lying on the top of Snowdon, blizzards, and a great Christmas Party in prospect!

For new members though, this is a first class centre owned by Hertfordshire County Council and maintained to a very high standard, like great beds, washing facilities, plenty of common areas and very good drying facilities. Beware, the light switch and the fire-alarm are right next to each other in the drying room and can cause a hell of a racket! You have been warned.

This centre also boasts an excellent commercial standard gas cooker which allows members to express their cooking skills to the full.

It is a brillant centre for a Christmas Party!

The centre is at the start of the Watkins Path up Snowdon.

As Christmas Dinner is included, the cost for this weekend is £5 more than usual.

Oh, and bring a low cost gift for the party (rough guidelines £3 to £5 - wrapped of course!), otherwise Santa will not visit the centre that night...sniff sniff ...
