Location
Friog is a charming hamlet on the outskirts of Fairbourne which is a village on the coast of Barmouth Bay to the south of the estuary of the River Mawddach in Gwynedd, surrounded by the Snowdonia National Park.

The 2 mile stretch of the sandy beach at Fairbourne to Friog is backed by steep pebble banks and at the northern end joins the Mawddach Estuary, while at the southern end the beach is squeezed between sheer cliffs and the sea. There are local shops, a post office in the village, a main line railway station and Barmouth with its greater variety of shops, harbour and Leisure Centre can be reached by train across the viaduct.
