SNOWDONIA CHAPEL
WALES
-
Snowdonia Chapel is a historic 1812-built chapel nestled in the picturesque coastal village of Llwyngwyril, North Wales. Just a short walk from the pebble beach and Llwyngwyril train station, this location offers a quintessential Welsh backdrop ideal for filming. The village itself provides a charming, quiet setting with local amenities including a farm shop, art and souvenir stores, and a traditional playground - all adding authentic local colour to any production. Nearby towns such as Fairbourne and Tywyn enhance the area’s visual and cultural richness, with attractions like steam trains and the oldest cinema in Wales offering further cinematic potential. While the village is remote and best accessed by car, its seclusion adds to its cinematic charm. Wales' diverse landscapes have long attracted major film productions - from Harry Potter to Batman - and Snowdonia Chapel sits within reach of dramatic coastlines, mountains and waterfalls, perfect for on-location shoots.
