  • "The family have an accomplished a first class renovation on this property."

    The view from the bi folding door in the dining kitchen is stunning. We arrived late in the evening in the dark, to wake up to that view was with every penny. We holidayed with my mum and grandson and the accommodation catered for all ages. Can’t recommend the accommodation and the helpfulness of the owners. Hope to return soon!!!

  • "We were a family of group of nine adults and had a lovely stay at the cottage."

    It is an amazing place with everything we needed plus more and we loved our few days there. We loved our soaks in the hot tub, and the view is amazing. Our stay gave us a chance to reflect and recharge. We wish it could have been longer and if we get a chance we’ll be back!

  • "This is a fantastic property with great views Good sized rooms."

    The bedrooms are a little lacking in storage space although this does not stop it from being a great property. The drive up to the property is a little difficult which some may find challenging. It is vital that you follow the instructions that are provided as without them you will get lost The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of crockery etc. Some microwavable dishes would be useful The hot tub was very popular. Despite the occasionally inclement weather the grandkids absolutely loved it and the views over the valley definitely add to the experience. Highly recommended

  • "This is a really great property, the views are outstanding, however, the road to the property is narrow and you will get your car scratched from overhanging branches."

    Inside everything is comfortable, and the kitchen is a great central area. The only downside with the bedrooms is there isn't enough hanging or storage for your clothes. The jacuzzi is spectacular at night.

    Thank you for your feedback. Although there are chest of drawers in every room for storing clothes we do appreciate that some people prefer to hang there clothes, and we are looking into hanging facilities that we can hopefully install during the quieter seasons as we have only started letting the property this year. Our listing does note that the track leading to the property is a farm track and should be navigated with care. We have however never scratched our car, or had any other feedback noting that any other guests have done so. Property Owner

  • "A beautifully converted barn in a very pretty location high above the Conwy Valley."

    The property worked well for three generations of our family, with plenty of space for all. The owners were delightful and could not have been more helpful.

    Thank you very much for your kind feedback. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay :) Mari and Dafydd Property Owner

    I've been lucky enough to stay in many holiday homes priced at two or three times what I paid for this property. This is right up there, I would 100% recommend this property. 10/10

    The home was immaculately presented and very well stocked….except for a cork screw.

    Thank you for your lovely feedback. We have now made sure that there is a cork screw at the property for future use :) Mari and Dafydd Property Owner

    It is decorated and maintained to a very high standard. The view of the Conwy valley is stunning. The road to it requires careful navigation but is well worth the effort!

  • "Fantastic!! I cannot emphasise enough how wonderful this place is coupled with how amazing the owners are"

    . Be sure to follow to the supplied directions as you will get lost using a sat nav! We had a superb family holiday at this property and it was made even more special due to the beauty and openness of both the location and the actual house. The house has oodles of space both inside and out and the interior has been tastefully furnished to a high standard. There is a fantastic view from the garden overlooking the valley. Any questions we had were almost instantly responded to by the owners, with whom we had the pleasure of meeting. Would we come again? Absolutely – we have booked for next year!

  • "This is the best cottage that we have ever stayed in."

    The hosts are lovely and super helpful and the facilities and location are unbelievably beautiful - we were lucky enough to stay on a weekend where it was roasting hot and the northern lights were out. We had lovely walks through the mountains and down to the great pub in the village, which has a stream running through the beer garden that the kids loved splashing in while we enjoyed some local ale. If you’re lucky enough to find availability for this cottage then jump at the opportunity. This is a really special, unique spot. I hope we get the chance to visit again.

    Thank you very much for the feedback, we are so happy that you enjoyed your stay with us. It would be a pleasure to welcome you again in the future at the barn. Mari and Dafydd Property Owner

    Lots of archeological landmarks from the Celtic period on your doorstep and walks along the Roman Road. Beautiful rooms and excellent facilities. Lovely friendly family.

    Thank you very much for the great feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay and were able to enjoy the many wonderful walks from the property. Mari and Dafydd Property Owner

  • "An amazing weekend break at this truly wonderful cottage for our joint 50th birthday celebrations."

    Group of five couples. Its specification is to an extremely high standard and it was a 'wow' factor when we walked through the door. The welcome basket was a lovely touch from our hosts and the Welsh cakes went down a treat. Thank you. Situated on a hill with magnificent views of the Welsh landscape there was nothing better to relax to, with the jacuzzi being an added bonus - it was already heated prior to our arrival which was amazing. The wood stove fire which had fuel to hand made the cottage so cosy and inviting. Facilities were great, beds so comfy, bathrooms with free standing baths added a touch of luxury to our stay. Cleaning products and other essential items were provided. Anyone considering booking here will not be disappointed. We didn't want to leave. Tips: use the pinpoint location provided by the host as it's easy to miss the first gate to the main driveway. We had a lovely Sunday lunch at the pub restaurant Ty-Gwyn at the bottom of the road, easy to walk to but would advise transport back for those who may struggle with an incline return walk. We would certainly recommend this cottage, it deserves 5 stars if not more.

    Thank you very much for your lovely feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay at the cottage celebrating very special birthdays :) 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 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.
