Penmaenuchaf Hall lies some fifty metres above the Mawddach estuary just west of Dolgellau. The hall is now run as a hotel and also rents out meeting rooms for day visitors. Here, a few delegates of the Cafmad postgraduate conference enjoy the gardens during a break in the proceedings. Cafmad, the Centre for Advanced Materials and Devices, is a joint undertaking of Aberystwyth (physics) and Bangor (chemistry and electrical engineering) Universities, but the topography of Wales means that it's often best to meet somewhere in the middle.
