    “Had a fantastic week in Conwy at the old sweet shop.”

    What a lovely home from home and so convenient to explore Conwy and surrounding area. The extra touches such as the full fridge of breakfast items, variety of milk , treats and fizz and just too much to mention on this review. The underfloor heating was a luxurious touch and a fantastic power shower. The people in Conwy were so friendly and despite the weather we managed to do lots of walking. The walk along the Welsh coast towards the marina and beyond along Morfa beach was spectacular! There ...

    What a lovely home from home and so convenient to explore Conwy and surrounding area. The extra touches such as the full fridge of breakfast items, variety of milk , treats and fizz and just too much to mention on this review. The underfloor heating was a luxurious touch and a fantastic power shower. The people in Conwy were so friendly and despite the weather we managed to do lots of walking. The walk along the Welsh coast towards the marina and beyond along Morfa beach was spectacular! There is also a beautiful marine bar and restaurant, the Mulberry. We were also very lucky to hear the saxophonist in the secret church bar which is so quaintly decorated like an old fashioned speakeasy. We didn’t dine but had a most enjoyable craft beer on the comfy sofas. We will most certainly be planning a return trip to Conwy and the old sweet shop will be top of our list for the stay! The Erskine arms is a lovely pub and would also recommend the Llandudno bay hotel for the afternoon tea and the most helpful, attentive young man there who looked after us ever so well , many thanks to all Two best friends who love to travel Pat and Ruth

On the ground-floor, discover the open-plan living space equipped with a stone-built fire surround featuring a woodburning gas stove, an audio entertainment system and contemporary furniture, ideal for those wanting to indulge in a relaxing evening, enjoy a movie marathon or have a quiet read whilst listening to some soothing background music.

To the rear, there is a balcony leading to a small patio space, complete with a table and chairs, an idyllic spot for unwinding with a morning coffee or basking in the midday sun.

Conwy is a thriving seaside town and a popular destination for tourists, set within the walls of the medieval castle built in 1287 where guests can delve into the local history.

Marvel at the views of the pretty harbour and backdrop of mountains, forming part of the Eryri National Park, before sampling some local produce in one of several of the local restaurants, pubs, cafes and independent shops.

From here, travel to the beautiful Isle of Anglesey, boasting an array of stunning beaches, or traverse the Eryri National Park, partaking in hikes, wild swimming, watersports or action-packed activities at Zip World Llechwedd.

About the location

CONWY

Llandudno 5 miles; Betws-y-Coed 16 miles.

Conwy, a World Heritage Site, is without doubt world famous for its historical and architectural heritage, yet at the heart of the town lies a hub of bustling activity. Alongside its ancient festivals and fairs, musical recitals, galleries and historical attractions, there is an array of specialist shops, restaurants and hotels. Built for King Edward I between 1283 and 1287, Master James of St George's design, Conwy Castle remains one of the most outstanding achievements of medieval military architecture. The distinctive, elongated shape, with its two barbicans, eight massive towers and a great bow-shaped hall was perhaps determined by the narrow rocky outcrop on which the castle stands. The town is proud of its historic traditions and celebrates its past by retaining many of these in its annual festivals, events and fairs, including the Honey fair, Seed fair and Gwledd Conwy Feast in October, along with other musical events throughout the year. Conwy is the perfect base for exploring the dramatic Snowdonia National Park, walking unspoilt sandy beaches, or taking in the wonderful scenery on your doorstep. Also within reach are the Llechwedd Slate Caverns, which has the longest zip wire in Europe, and Surf Snowdonia is just six miles away.
