Alternative breaks in eco-cabins
The Centre for Alternative Technology in Snowdonia is promoting family holidays in its eco-cabins and will be featured on the BBC's Holiday programme, in Spring 2002.
Holiday-makers can hire a self-catering apartment, powered by renewable energy with open access to the CAT site and all facilities.
The visitor centre, now receiving over 70,000 visitors a year, has interactive displays on wind, water and solar power, green transport, energy efficiency, ecological building and organic growing. Visitors are encouraged to combine entertainment with education, such as joining a slug-and-bug hunt or making solar powered kits.
Paul Allen, CAT's development director says for many people a day at CAT is too short and the only answer is a week's holiday: CAT and the Dyfi Valley has become the natural choice for a great green holiday. Activities such as painting and mountain walking are also on offer.
