Just 45 minutes from Seven Oaks, the majestic Lake Vyrnwy sits proudly on the cusp of Snowdonia National Park and is one of the top places to visit in Wales.

Despite its name, Lake Vyrnwy isn’t a lake at all but a reservoir that was created as a way to supply water to Liverpool in the late 1800s. During the creation of Lake Vyrnwy, an old village was submerged under the water including a church, farmhouses and even a post office. Visitors can hardly believe that an entire village sits calmly under the magnificent breadth of still water.
