Os medrwch chi ddod o hyd i rywun i rannu ystafell, neu os oes grŵp o bedwar – mae hynny’n iawn hefyd. Ar ôl derbyn y blaendaliadau bydd Jan yn cysylltu. Pebyll a charafanau - £5 y person y noson. Brecwast £5 ar ben hynny. Ceir byrbrydau a phrydau nos yn amrywio mewn prisiau.

Gweithgareddau arfaethedig.

Dydd Sadwrn 27ain, brecwast am 9.00 yna cyfarfod yn y brif ystafell am sesiwn y bore. Dewis o’r canlynol:   

Dysgu caneuon traddodiadol – Calon lân, Sosban Fach ac wrth gwrs yr Anthem. Fideos Cymraeg, trafod lluniau gwyliau (mi fydd gynnoch chi ddigon erbyn mis Medi!) neu drafod hen gardiau post. Senarios fel siop..caffi..banc..swyddfa bost..gofyn cyfeiriadau..neu chwarae gemau. Mi fydd ‘na rywbeth i bob lefel gyda’r rhai mwy profiadol yn cynorthwyo’r rhai sy’n dechrau’r daith. Os bydd y tywydd yn braf gobeithiwn gerdded ar hyd yr afon Gonwy i mewn i Fetws-y-coed.

Mi fydd dydd Sul yn rhydd i chi droi am adre neu grwydro’n hirach o gwmpas y siopau, galw i mewn i weld Alison a Jon yn yr oriel neu wylio ffilm am yr Wyddfa yn Saesneg ac yn Gymraeg yn y ganolfan groeso. Does ‘na ddim angen bwcio ymlaen llaw. Mae ‘na nifer o lefydd bwyta ardderchog ym Metws wrth gwrs.  

Rhaglen dros dro ydy hon, ac mae’n bosib y bydd rhai newidiadau yn nes at yr amser. Os oes gynnoch chi awgrymiadau, a wnewch chi gysylltu ag aelod o’r pwyllgor os gwelwch yn dda.

Proposed activities

Saturday 27^th,  breakfast 9am meet in the main room for a morning session for a  selection of the following: for those of a musical persuasion and talent there could be a session of learning traditional Welsh songs Calon Lân, Sosban Fach and of course the Welsh National Anthem. Welsh videos, discussions about your holiday photos (you will have plenty by September) or Old Postcards. A good opportunity to try out your Welsh, see how you get on you might be surprised. Another choice would be a set of scenarios such as A Shop… buy something in Welsh. A Café…. Order a paned and something to eat. The Bank… Draw out money. Get stamps from the Post Office… Ask the way to somewhere (directions) or just play games scrabble etc.

There is something for all abilities the more experienced Welsh speakers in the Clwb attending the weekend will be able to help you to shop, order food etc… you should feel safe and confident to use your’ Welsh among friends and leave with a sense of achievement!

Weather permitting you could go for a walk along the river Conwy into Betws-y-Coed.

Sunday, after breakfast is up to you: leave and go home have a wander round the shops, pop into Alison’s Gallery and say hello or you could go to see the film at the information centre which is held in their theatre, it is a tour of Snowdonia from the air in English and then replayed in Welsh; the theatre holds approx 50 people. The film is played on a continual loop so booking is not necessary. There are also many Hotels and Restaurants in Betws for Sunday lunch. 

This programme is provisional and will probably change nearer to the date. If you have any suggestions contact a Committee member.
