Conwy, a World Heritage Site, is unquestionably well-known around the world for its historical and architectural legacy, yet the centre of the town is a hive of busy activity. There are numerous specialised stores, eateries, and motels in addition to its traditional festivals and fairs, musical performances, galleries, and tourist attractions. Conwy Castle, which was constructed for King Edward I between 1283 and 1287, is still regarded as one of the finest examples of mediaeval military construction. The castle's unusual, elongated shape—complete with two barbicans, eight enormous towers, and a large bow-shaped hall—was likely influenced by the castle's location on a small rocky outcrop. The Gwledd Conwy Feast, the Honey Fair, the Seed Fair, and other yearly festivals, events, and fairs, as well as other musical occasions throughout the year, are just a few of the town's many annual celebrations of its historical traditions, which it is pleased to uphold. Conwy is the ideal starting point for exploring the stunning Snowdonia National Park, strolling along undeveloped sandy beaches, or taking in the breathtaking nature right outside your door. The Llechwedd Slate Caverns, which have the longest zip line in Europe, are also close by, while Surf Snowdonia is only six miles distant.

    We had a great time celebrating our sons 40th with family fantastic house great spot very comfortable and we used one of the recommended chefs Darek Chimielnicki he was excellent

    There were a few tiny things that are just feedback, but it really didn't impact our stay . The enclosed area out the back was not accessible and with us having dogs it would of made it a bit easier as the main garden isn't fully enclosed for wandering pets. Some of the curtains and blinds could do with a little TLC for when you need to open and close them.BUT this didn't impact on us and the house was so lovely and homey, we would definitely visit again.
