Follow the road further until you come out of the 40 mph speed limit and reach a long straight. Look to your left and you will see a lot of Mobile Holiday Homes. Pass Caerddaniel until you reach the end of the straight, and pass the Wayside Pub/Fish Bar which is on the right. Trawsdir entrance is just a little further down the hill and is on the right. By Train Exit at the Train Station in Barmouth and go to the Bus Stop adjacent to it, and get on the bus heading towards Harlech. Ask the driver for Trawsdir.
