"An excellent property well located."
The only difficulty is having to pass through one bedroom to access the other which may limit the property letting.
-
"Lovely cottage in a great location so near to the castle and shops."
Very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Also really handy being able to park the car so close. Thank you.
-
"Our stay at Millgate House in one word was perfect."
There was not one complaint about the house. The comfort and cleanliness was faultless. There was everything we needed in the house. We have stayed in Conwy many times but this house was the best to stay in. The only thing we were disappointed in was having to leave and we will definitely be back. Thank you so much, the perfect week is the only way I can describe it.

"We found Millgate House super clean warm and comfortable."
The toilets on every floor were very useful. It was in a good location. The down side was that the bedrooms were accessed through each other. Also I feel the second floor stairs would have benefited from a second hand rail as the first floor had. The owner/managers were helpful on the one occasion we contacted them.

"A beautiful, well presented and very clean property in the heart of Conwy town (with parking!"
). It is a real home from home, and has everything that you could possibly need whilst away. The welcome pack including fresh milk, was really appreciated, and Rachel and Lorna were both extremely helpful hosts. We will definitely return.

"Fantastic cottage fab little town can't beat it"
-
"This property is in a great location and we found it to be extremely comfortable, clean and very well appointed."
All the equipment worked perfectly, including a very good sized television. The water was always hot, the bathrooms very modern and the beds extremely comfortable. It was all positive with no negative issues at all - and the welcome tray with the delicious Bara Brith loaf was a nice touch. We were two old friends so having one bedroom through the other was not a problem for us and it would be fine for a young family. That might be a bit less successful for two couples staying together. We really enjoyed our stay in the Cottage and recommend it highly..

"Well fitted out and excellent finish."
Beds comfortable, kitchen easily worked. Heating good, tv, too. Very handy location and parking. One sofa low and in need to replacement. Welcome pack with coffee, milk and cake. Would return.

"A lovely clean and comfortable town house, with parking just a stone's throw away an absolute bonus in Conwy."
-
"Great location for self catering get away, being in the town lots of pubs and cafes just a stones throw away, plus Spar shop open 7 days a week early until late at night also local off licences, chip shops, bakeries etc so you can decide meal by meal what to have and where with no need to plan ahead just see what you feel like - go out or get something to eat in back to the cottage."
Cottage itself is over 3 floors very clean modern & nicely done boutique style I'd say, with a toilet on every level it's well thought out and with private parking highly recommended

"Blind broke pully at the side down stairs ,water soaking in to the work top near sink and sofa a bit tired but saying this it a good place to stay and decorated very well we enjoyed our week."
Bonus parking for two cars would go again

"We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Millgate House."
The property is in a perfect location right in the centre of Conwy with the added bonus of parking. The decor is beautiful throughout and to a high standard. Communication was really good and there was a lovely welcome pack on arrival. The house has everything you need for a lovely stay in the area and there are plenty of nice places to eat in the town. The Erskine Arms opposite is superb and lovely inside. Despite being in the town there was no noise and we felt totally relaxed. We loved the property so much we will definitely come back. Lovely walks nearby on the Conwy mountains and along the river at Betsw y coed. A beautiful dog friendly beach too at Morfa beach. You can also visit the smallest house in Britain which is in the town. The only thing we would change is the seating in the lounge. For 2 people we managed ok but it wasn’t that comfortable. If the sofa was replaced with a bigger L shaped one which seats 4 adults, rather than having the rocking chair and table that would make this property perfect. Thanks for a great stay in your lovely home and we look forward to coming back again.
Thank you so much for your feedback and kind words. So glad you enjoyed your stay. Just to let you know we are in the process of getting a new sofa X Property Owner

"After reading the reviews of Millgate House we thought the property would be adequate for two, but sadly not."
The seating would not accommodate four people and was extremely uncomfortable badly in need of replacement. There were no wardrobes just a rail, which was too close to the bed. We always rent properties for four people to ensure comfort. By Tuesday we had had enough and decided to come home. I might add we are average sized people, not overweight.
We are sorry to hear that you didn’t enjoy your holiday at Millgate House. However we’re surprised that you scored us so low for accuracy of listing and comfort which is in contrast to many positive reviews we have received and we believe that the photos and listing show clearly that this is a small town house. We appreciate that everybody has different tastes and needs and we’re sorry that our house didn’t match yours. Property Owner

"This property not only met, but exceeded our expectations."
A fantastic well-presented town house oozing history, right in the centre of town, and a brilliant base from which to explore the surrounding area. Great local pubs too, to while away a few hours after a day's walking.
-
"A charming cottage, feels like part of the castle wall."
Excellent location for Conwy and surrounding areas. Close to good cafés and restaurants. Bus and train links within short walking distance. Beautifully presented and spotless.
-
"What a fantastic place to stay; could not fault a thing about Millgate House."
Lorna and Rachel have really put lots of thought and effort into the house from the decor, to the layout and all the lovely finishing touches…just perfect. We are already thinking of a second stay later in the year.
-
"Everything was very good."
The cottage has an excellent washing machine with a selectable one-hour wash/dry cycle. 0nly disadvantage is the fact that the front door frontage is used as a car park and pedestrian walkway. Difficult to unload luggage and enter the house. Also, people (tourists) walking past the lounge widow most of the day. Apart from that everything is 5 stars.
-
"Gorgeous cottage in fantastic location."
Added bonus having 2 parking spaces. Beautifully renovated and great to have downstairs toilet for our elderly mum. Super comfortable beds too. Thank you!

"Amazing family stay 24-27th feb X2 adults x1 child and a dog Perfect ..."
Amazing family stay 24-27th feb X2 adults x1 child and a dog Perfect location on the door step to everything Very comfortable and clean No garden wasn’t a problem atall as you come out of the door and turn right and there’s plenty of grass to take your furry friend out for the toilet Already looking forward to staying again

"Lovely accommodation, spotlessly clean, and wonderfully warm for a late-winter week."
Single beds extremely comfortable, bedroom spacious enough, ensuite well-appointed and spotless. The boot room is a very useful space. The kitchen is well-planned for function, and all appliances and usual equipment available, other than dishwasher (who was too busy editing his photos of the stunning locations). The living space is small but cleverly planned for comfortable TV-watching. The wi-fi was perfect. The location of Millgate House is central to Conwy, and the parking a few paces away. North Wales itself is a wonderful mix of stunning countryside, with Snowdonia close by, and easily accessible coastal towns.

"We have had a lovely stay at Millgate House."
The cottage was very clean and comfortable. The location was ideal for exploring Conwy and the local area and the car parking spaces were invaluable. I mentioned to our hosts that we may be a late arrival. When we got to the cottage the lights were on and it was lovely and warm. Little touches like that made all the difference. Thank you.
-
"Millgate House is a lovely property & right in the centre of Conwy."
The cottage is very tastefully decorated & very cosy for 2 people & 1 small dog. I think it would be a little small for more than 2 people as the downstairs is very small. Great to have a private parking space right next to the cottage. All in all we really enjoyed our stay at the cottage.
-
"One of the newest decorated property that we ve stayed in."
Great taste, design, quality items throughout. Ground floor living kitchen( also a small room with toilet and basin) then up the stairs to first floor bedroom (2single beds with shower and toilet-beds sizes were OK for 2 adults) To go to the second bedroom you do have to go through first bedroom but we didn't see any issues with that. The second bedroom has got a double bed and a big bathroom with bath and toilet. The communication with the host was excellent We had space to park 2 cars which is a bonus. Thank you very much for the experience
-
"Excellent location."
House has loads of character and was immaculately clean with everything you could want for your stay.
-
"What a wonderful place, Conwy is a beautiful town and this place is right in the middle of everything."
The rear wall is actually part of Conwy Castle!!! Perfect parking right next to the building for two cars and a visitor's place is the next building along. Ever so tidy, basically newly refurbished and the beds are oh so comfy. A great place.
-
"Overall, we loved the house, its location and, most especially, the provision of two parking spaces."
Cleanliness was exemplary. The ground floor seating area was slightly small for four adults, but good enough for a holiday period. The absence of a dishwasher is understood on space grounds, but we missed one! The bedrooms and bathrooms were fine, and, for us, access to the second bedroom through the first did not present a problem.
-
"A nice property but not somewhere I would choose to stay again."
Good central location but it was quite a cramped 1 bedroom cottage with the middle floor converted to a walkthrough second bedroom. We were a couple staying away but if we had been with friends or children this would have been a disaster when trying to go to bed / get up in a morning. We picked it for the convenience of being in the centre of Conwy but no garden was not as easy as I thought with a dog, and not ideal in summer even if we hadn’t had a dog. Also was a late decision so options were more limited. Very clean. Comfortable memory foam beds. Good parking given it’s location. Poor water pressure and water heat which wouldn’t bode well for winter stays. Nice equipped kitchen but quite cramped (see small cottage) and a very small under counter fridge / freezer).
Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that you would not return to Millgate House. I appreciate you raising your concerns about the hot water / pressure. This has not been mentioned by previous guests so I will definitely check it out. Regarding the lack of a garden; I hope it is clear from the particulars that the house doesn't have a garden and I am sorry if you missed that detail. We are dog friendly to be as inclusive as possible and there are many lovely walks within a stone's throw of the front door. I’m glad you didn’t have a ‘disaster’ on finding that you need to access the top bedroom via the middle bedroom. This detail - which I’m aware won’t suit everyone - is also noted in our particulars on Sykes’ website. Many families have stayed with us and have been perfectly satisfied with the configuration of the property, again I am sorry it did not suit you. However, I am very glad that we were able to accommodate your last minute booking. Regards Lorna and Rachel Property Owner

"Lovely little cottage, exceptionally clean and well equipped kitchen with very new looking crockery etc."
Having to take your rubbish to local bin collection point a bit annoying but can't be helped. I should have liked to have a spare key as holidaying with adult son and we had different timings. But a great holiday liovely place.
-
"Lovely cottage, fantastic position and beautifully presented."
Did not realise that to get to the main bedroom you had to go through the second bedroom and the living area good for two adults but a bit cramped for four, better for two adults and two kids!! We were two adults and thoroughly enjoyed it, thank you.
-
"Lovely house right in the centre of Conwy."
Parking at the property, which was a real bonus. Kitchen really well equipped. Very comfy bed. Fresh and clean throughout. All in all, would highly recommend.
-
"Beautiful stay, thank you."
-
"A wonderful location."
So convenient for all Conwy has to offer. The house is spotlessly clean and has been modernised to a very high standard. Our only negative comment is that we weren't aware from the description of the property that to get to the bedroom on the second floor we had to walk through the bedroom on the first floor.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay at Millgate House. We have been in touch with Sykes and they have now amended the description regarding the access to top bedroom. Property Owner

"Excellent property in prime location to vist town with easy local private parking."
Rachel is very friendly and helpful. Would definately return again for another short break.

"Cottage was booked fairly last minute for a long weekend break."
House is in a great location, just a few minutes walk from the Main Street, is easy to find and with the added bonus of designated parking. Received email instructions for entry. The cottage was extremely clean and the beds comfortable. One think not mentioned on the details is the third bedroom is accessed through the twin room. Not a problem for us but maybe for some families. Minor irritation was the TV. There is no Ariel reception and all TV has to be watched through the apps. To rectify this simply would be to add a sky TV box. On contacting the owners they were very helpful and offered to come and show me how to watch live TV, you can but it’s through an app, so no channel hopping. Some people may struggle with this. You can sign in to Netflix or Prime but of course you need a subscription. Overall the positives outweigh the negatives and I would recommend the cottage. We had an enjoyable few nights.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay at Millgate House. We have been in touch with Sykes and they have now amended the description regarding the access to top bedroom. Property Owner

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 Eryri (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.
