 |
| ...and then looking down on another side. |
 |
| And....their Suspension Bridge over the River Conway. |
 |
| We spent a sunny afternoon enjoying these fabulous gardens. Founded in 1874 ~ 80 acres. The Bodnant family still occupy the original home...see below. |

And of course at path end....there was a tea house !   |
 |
| A drive to Snowdonia National Park (that mt. is in the background) |
