Where you’ll be based

Rhyd‑y‑Creuau sits in the heart of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, surrounded by rugged peaks, quiet valleys and the dramatic North Wales coastline. It feels wonderfully remote but is easy to reach, with the A55 a short drive away and Betws‑y‑Coed station just a simple, flat 1 km walk from the centre.

Our 2.2‑hectare estate includes woodland paths, a biodiversity garden, ponds, streams and a cosy campfire circle, creating a relaxed and inspiring place to work. The outdoors isn’t just a backdrop here, it’s the character of the place and a big part of what makes the experience special for guests and staff alike.

We ask that you have:

• A positive, can-do attitude

• Ability to work independently and with others

• Good customer service skills

• Flexibility and willingness to support different areas of the centre

Sound like the role for you? Come and be part of the team! We look forward to your application.
