Conwy, a unesco World History Site, is unquestionably famed for its historical and architectural heritage, yet the town's centre is a hive of activity. There are a variety of specialty stores, restaurants, and motels in addition to the ancient festivals and fairs, musical concerts, galleries, and historical sights. Conwy Castle, designed by Master James of St George and built for King Edward I between 1283 and 1287, is one of the most spectacular examples of mediaeval military architecture. The narrow rocky ledge on which the castle rests may have influenced its peculiar, elongated shape, with its two barbicans, eight huge towers, and a magnificent bow-shaped hall.

It had everything we needed for our stay and more, like the bath robes provided and complimentry tea and coffee. The hosts also provided a very detailed information booklet, which told us how to use all the electronics in the house and gave us information about the town and local businesses. The space was comfortable and nicely styled. The walk in shower was one of the best I've had in my life and the oven was 10/10. We would 100% rebook here if we stay in the area again.

Located in a great place to get all over Conwy, a helpful welcome pack left to give us some tips about the area. My children loved the little terrace and the beds were so comfortable and the bedding pristine. The added touches of dressing gowns and easy access appliances you donât always find in a holiday home was so helpful, especially the hoover, with three little ones their always crumbs
