FIND STILLNESS IN NATURE
April is Stress Awareness Month, a time to recognise stress and find ways to manage it. One of the best ways? Spending time in nature. Studies show that being outdoors can lower stress levels, improve mood, and help us feel more grounded.
The Power of Nature & Relaxation
Here in Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, we’re lucky to have stunning landscapes that invite us to slow down. A quiet walk, a moment by the lake, or simply looking up at the night sky can help put things into perspective. For deeper relaxation, our Barlwyd Shepherd’s Hut guests have access to our wood-fired sauna, which offers a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature.

This month, take a moment for yourself. Step outside, take a breath, and slow your world down, even if just for a little while.
