The Alms Houses

Originally built in the 16th century and rebuilt in 1880, this detached row of three Grade II listed 5* holiday cottages are located in the beautiful and peaceful National Trust Estate of Ysbyty Ifan just outside Betws-y-Coed. The village which is dissected by the River Conwy has many historic buildings including an old mill, workshop and smithy.
