Dinas Oleu
Barmouth, Gwynedd LL42 - Wales, UK
  Share Location Map  
 
 
The gorse covered hillside above Barmouth known as Dinas Oleu has the distinction of being the first property to be given to the National Trust. The name means "Fortress of Light", and it was donated in 1895 by Mrs Fanny Talbot, a wealthy philanthropist who lived in a villa nearby. The hill offers splendid views of Barmouth and Cardigan Bay. On the top there is a seat commemorating the 100 year anniversary of its donation. Dinas Oleu is easily reached by lane and footpath from the main street in Barmouth and, for those with the energy, it is a good starting point for longer walks.
