I certainly consider myself lucky to be part of a team of people who want to share their passion and encourage people out into the fresh air to take in the beauty of our natural world.

I hope you enjoy our new 2018 brochure – with 100 years’ experience under our belt, we know the great pleasure to be gained from seeing the UK at walking pace, and we would love to share it with you.

Q&AWITH SEAN, OUR
CHEF AT DOLSERAU HALL, DOLGELLAU
Q How important is good food to HF Holidays’ guests?
A Very! Holidays are all about indulgence and treats so they expect the highest standards; it’s not just about replacing calories they might burn up if they are out and about. We focus on classic dishes cooked with modern techniques, fuelling our guests while creating anticipation at mealtimes.
Q Do you concentrate on Welsh cuisine or international dishes at Dolgellau?
A I take classic Welsh dishes and give them a modern twist. We pride ourselves on quality produce, from our world-renowned salt marsh lamb, Welsh black beef, Swansea bay cockles and Menai Bridge mussels to simple winter leeks and summer samphire.
Q What would you say is your signature dish?
A My signature dish is an assiette of Welsh lamb – herb and pistachio-crusted rack, crispy braised belly, miniature Shepherd’s pie with creamed leeks and home-smoked bacon, roast celeriac purée, potato & leek terrine, charred asparagus and rosemary gravy.

MEET MIKE ONE OF OUR HF HOLIDAYS NATURAL WORLD LEADERS
I’m a countryman born and bred, and I’ve devoted my adult life to sharing my enthusiasm about the British countryside’s fascinating wildlife. My expertise extends across the natural world, and I’m a passionate believer in a holistic approach to its interdependency – from the underlying geology and vegetation through to the creatures which depend on it.

I’ve been teaching art and photography for over 30 years and I love passing on my skills.

I’m looking forward to sharing my knowledge with you.

CAPTURE NEW MEMORIES

Enjoy one of our wonderful photography breaks and learn how to take amazing pictures that will help your holiday live long in your memory.
considerations for photographing landscapes – a useful skill for any outdoor holiday.
“To capture the country’s wonderful vistas and famous landmarks at their best, the essential requirement is observation; look for a good vantage point, consider the light and where it is coming from, make use of shadows and aim for good composition.
“Advances in technology mean most people’s digital cameras will produce a quality image –
the next stage comes with having a greater understanding of the various controls and settings to make those images even better.
“Sunshine is great, but given we’re talking about the UK, it’s certainly not a guaranteed event! Fear not, however – even on dull and overcast days you can still get great pictures. On cloudier days, why not switch your focus to, say, architecture or heritage features like historic steam railways, making use of the changing tones and colours.
“And of course, if it is raining you’ll want to ensure your camera stays safe! Some simple protection against the elements is perfect – it doesn’t need to be hi-tech, and placing your camera in a plastic bag with a hole for
no reason for the weather to stop you taking photos!”
