Take the turn signposted Llanbedr-y-Cennin which is just off the B5106 between Caerhun and Dolgarrog. Go about half a mile up the road and turn right opposite Ye Olde Bull Inn. St Peter’s Church is on the left. There is limited roadside parking outside the church.
As with most churchyards, please take care when you walk around as the ground can be uneven. Also please try to walk around the graves rather than over them.
So why “Saint among the Daffodils”?
The Welsh word ‘Llan’ means enclosure (which could be why so many place names begin Llan...), and this church marks the place where Peter first set up his church in the 6th century. The Welsh word ‘Cennin’ means daffodil so Llanbedr y Cennin can be translated as “St Peter among the daffodils” – hence “Saint among the Daffodils”.
St Peter’s Church holds many more tales and secrets, why not pop in if you have time? The Church welcomes visitors and is open daily between 10am & 5pm. Whilst looking around, please remember that they are places of worship and contemplation, and the heritage is much valued by the local communities.
The cache is a camouflaged nano container and it has a logbook, sharpener and pencil inside. Happy hunting!
