    “A beautiful property full of character.”

    Very cosy feel to the original building, with the bonus of a bright and spacious conservatory for dining/relaxing. The owner left some Halloween activities for our 2 children, and their niece baked for us too, which was greatly appreciated by all of us. Lots of games in the living room cupboard and a library of DVDs helped to keep us entertained. A lovely quiet spot to return to after our days out exploring the nearby attractions - Bodnant garden, Penrhyn Castle, the Welsh Mountain zoo, ...

Benefit from a well-equipped country-style kitchen, where you can prepare home cooked meals, before retiring to the suntrap conservatory to dine as a group.

Relax in the inviting sitting room, featuring plush seating, a woodburning stove, TV, and a selection of books, ahead of catching the last of the sunshine in the decked garden, or enjoying an evening tipple in the local pub.

Enjoy a seaside stroll across the resident beach, where you can also dine at Bryn Williams Restaurant, explore the shoreline by bike, possible to hire from the centre of Colywn Bay, or take up the chance to wind surf, before exploring further hot spots, including Fairy Glen woodland and the family attraction of Welsh Mountain Zoo.

On route, stop off at Rhos on Sea, a seaside resort dotted with family-friendly attractions, before travelling into Llandudno, where you can stroll down Llandudno Pier, tour the Great Orme Mines through the self-guided tunnels, or enjoy a sweet treat at the Llandudno Chocolate Experience.

Heading into the county, visit The Smallest House in Great Britain, standing at 72 inches wide, relax upon Conwy Morfa Beach, or tour Conwy Castle, a grand medieval fortress, offering guided tours and experiences.

Bodnant Garden, a botanical 80-acre garden under the National Trust is also a firm favourite, perfect for visiting whilst stopping off at Bodnant Welsh Food, an 18th century farmhouse, offering local produce through its charming tearoom and restaurant.
