Developers are lining up to regenerate the Snowdonian village of Llanberis.
One of the eight rival schemes is looking to turn the Welsh village’s old slate quarries into a huge hotel and leisure complex, which would almost double the size of the village at a cost of £160m.
The only other scheme to be made public so far is a £12m non-profit making community plan to build the most ambitious mountain bike centre in Britain with a cable car ride over the quarries.
