  The instructions for access were clear and unloading was easy but via 8 steps.

  However it should be noted that the drive is on quite a steep slope which might be a problem for some individuals. The house was in a quiet neighbourhood (late June) with little or no disturbance despite the nearby railway and main road. There were good views of the nearby hills, the river and the castle from the front bedroom and the decked area adjacent to the front door. The double bed was soft but tolerable with our own toppers. We did not use the single bed so cannot comment. There is no gas in the property and the heating, hot water and the shower were electric. We did not use the heating so cannot comment. The hot water is from a hot water tank with an immersion heater and was very good. The shower was also perfectly adequate with a reasonable flow. The towels were a bit small compared to other properties we have used and we did not find an information folder with instructions for appliances etc. There was some information on local attractions. The TV was good with both Netflix and Amazon Prime included. We thought Deganwy was an excellent location for visiting the area. There was a fish and chip shop 1-2 minutes on the main road to Llanduno Junction. At Llanduno jumction there were supermarkets and access to the NorthWales Expressway. There is an M&S at Llanduno but parking costs £2.50 per hour. Lots to do in the area and we would return to the area and the property in the future it we have time.

  A nice little house in a good location.

  Our welcome pack was thoughtful and appreciated, thank you. On first entering the house appeared clean. Unfortunately some aspects were not up to the standard we expected. The white curtains in lounge are very dirty. We moved the armchair to fit a dog bed in, the floor behind and under the furniture had not been swept, revealing bits of old food and small dog toys, (these were left in the house). The shower head has black mould on it. The bathroom fan is filthy. The back patio was dirty with dog poo and litter. I had to clean this up before I could allow my dogs outside. Not a very nice welcome. Stripping the bed down on leaving revealed a stained mattress protector and rubbish under the bed. I have photos of the curtains, shower head, fan, stained bedding and under bed. The sofa has been well used and you sink right into the left seat. Sofa also needs a good clean. The rear outside light does not work. The focal center of the lounge is a very large clock. Unfortunately this was not working either. The literature in the house says a spare set of keys are in the cutlery drawer. They were not there so we had to separate the keys on the keyring in order to be able to open both doors. It is such a shame that these little matters could not have been better managed as this could be a fabulous place to stay.

  We loved Havens End what a beautiful cottage!

  The town Conwy is stunning and rich with history, the people were friendly and helpful. Julian the landlord was helpful but did not interfere with our stay leaving us alone but let us know he was around if we needed anything! Everything you could need was at the cottage, it was so welcoming the lights were on when we arrived with a bottle of Prosecco chilling in the kitchen what a lovely welcome thank you! Situated in a great location right inside the UNESCO protected city walls. This does mean the parking outside the cottage is tricky but there are alternatives (long stay car park) nearby if you would prefer not to tackle it! if you have mobility issues the stairs are steep due to the age of the cottage. We visited with our 2 dogs and there are stair gates to prevent them going upstairs which was particularly good for our old collie who would struggle. The dogs loved it here and the garden area was a big hit. The dogs settled quickly and slept downstairs (as they do at home) with little fuss and then put their paws firmly under the mat. A really lovely relaxing stay with beautiful walks, views, food and accommodation. This was just what we needed away from our busy life. Thanks again Julian we would highly recommend this cottage!

  The parking is there BUT it is difficult because the space is on a severe gradient which makes getting in an out of the car a struggle and there were always cars parked opposite which hampered the access and exit.

  One reason for us choosing Castle View was the enclosed garden and grass area as we have a small dog. However you need to be very fit and agile to access this area. The steps are steep and without an adequate handrail.The upper steps are hazardous with loose gravel. If we hadn’t had the company of a young person with us we could not have cleaned up after our dog. Internally the property did better. The kitchen needs slightly more than pots and pans ….such as a few casserole dishes.and a dishwasher would have been preferable to the large freezer which we never used. Upstairs is comfortable but the single bedroom has no hanging rail and only 1 hook…..definitely not to our daughters liking.The same goes for the bathroom. Fantastic shower but a grab rail to aid getting in and out of the bath would be a great idea. It’s the first bathroom I’ve been into that has not even one hook on which to hang one’s clothes……and the lock fell out and had to be pushed back into place on numerous occasions. On the positive side the beds and linens are excellent.As is the lounge and dining ares. I would suggest that this property is not ideal for anyone with mobility or balance problems.

  We had a really lovely time at Havens end cottage.

  This was our second visit to this cottage and hopefully we will be back. Juillian the owner is very helpful and pleasant and is always on hand to help if it is needed. We had arrived a little earlier than the check in time on arrival day and we were able to park our car by the cottage rather than having to find somewhere in Conwy with a car full of things. Juillian was even happy for us to put our things in the cottage at this point rather than leaving them till we got back. On check out day again we were able to leave the car up by the house for a few hours whilst we went and looked round Conwy. There was a small issue with the toilet during our stay and Juilian was more than happy to pop round and sort it out. The outside seating area to the cottage was new to us on this stay and makes for a really beautiful addition to the property. I just love the position of the cottage literally within the walls of the castle and so close to the town. The views out over the estuary from the upstairs back room and the snug are amazing. The cottage is also within easy driving reach of Llandudno, Deganwy, Colwyn Bay, Glan Conwy and Rhos on sea. Would highly recommend
