Llyn Idwal is a small lake that lies within Cwm Idwal in the Glyderau mountains of Snowdonia, North Wales UK. Cwm Idwal is a Site of Special Scientific Interest, the cwm was also the first nature Reserve in Wales, being designated as such in 1954. The area around the lake has much interesting geology and botany and is popular for walking, climbing and, in the winter months, ice climbing.
The Barracks comprised two rows of 11 dwellings, served as accommodation for quarrymen, they would spend the week based in the barracks working in the quarry, leaving their homes very early on Monday morning and returning Saturday afternoon. Conditions were spartan. Each two-room unit had a living area with a fireplace and a sleeping area for four men. Facilities were scant no running water, toilets or electricity. Public-health inspectors closed down these barracks in 1948. Dinorwic Quarry, Llanberis north Wales, UK

Llyn Mair is a beautiful lake nestled within the Vale of Ffestiniog north Wales. The lake is surrounded by mixed woodland and designated a Special Area of Conservation. Llyn Mair enjoys a wealth of wildlife, with frequenting bird species such as Heron, Yellow Wagtail, Pied Wagtail and Osprey, as well as insects including Damselfly and Dragonfly. Over the winter season, the lake is a magnet for diving and dabbling wild ducks and during the summer, water lilies are a striking sight to behold.

All the photos bring such a sense of peace to the onlookers and for me a sense of curiosity about what is around the corner, at the end of the trail, or in the barracks. Beautiful photos of a beautiful “home” you have. Thanks for sharing.
