  Lovely apartment with tasteful decorations and furnishings.

  My wife loved a certain chair so much she spent nearly a whole day in it on our lazy day. Perfect amount of natural light coming in through the windows with the option to draw the blinds if you wanted. My wife insists I mention here that the bathroom has a bidet installed which functions exactly like those in her home country of Finland, very important since not too many places in the UK have them. Which I'll admit that it does make a big difference. Something that cannot go unsaid is that the location is literally perfect as a homebase for exploring the local area. Right next to what I'd call the primary bus stop for the town where you can hop onto a bus and get to anywhere nearby. A minute walk away from the local tram that goes to the summit of the mountain nearby. A 2-3 minute walk away from the beach and pier. Plenty of places to dine in or take food away nearby as well, with a sainsbury's just around the corner as well if you are in need of any little bits and pieces. Not to forget that it's about a 5-8 minute walk to the nearby cable cars which also go up to the summit of the mountain as well (just bring cash!). Conwy castle is easy to reach with the nearby bus stop having multiple buses that stop outside the castle too. Last but not least the host is very attentive and polite. Was always happy to answer my questions if I needed to call. Me and my wife stayed for a week and it was a lovely get away. Couldn't recommend more, especially for the price. An absolute steal!

  We enjoyed our holiday at Riverside Cottage which is in a nice location and within a few miles of all the places we had arranged to visit, the town is also very close to the property with some nice places to eat.

  The drawback is the parking with nearly every entry in the visitors book giving their view. Because of an event on the promenade we were unable get our car near the property and had to unload our luggage through a wall at the front on a small grass verge (with help from the people who lived next door) also, there is a scaffold on the Harbour Masters building where the road leads to the property so I left the car on the grass verge overnight. On the Sunday morning I went to the Harbour Master and explained the problem and they gave me a weekly pass for parking in one of four spaces in front of the RNLI shop but asked to leave my car where it was until Monday with pass displayed after that there was no problem. My personal view is if the property owner speaks to the Harbour Master to arrange a pass for all visitors.

  Lovely small but perfectly formed cottage with an amazing view of the Quay at Conwy.

  We were a little concerned after reading a couple of recent reviews but we shouldn't have been as the cottage was beautifully presented, clean & well equipped with a bottle of Fizz in the fridge and a bag of logs etc. for the log burner. Parking is tight & can be a bit like a game of jenga if all of the other cottages are occupied but with a bit of communication with your neighbours it can work out. We had a fabulous weeks stay, the weather was extremely kind & we loved sitting in bed each morning with a coffee watching the boats. For a couple & four legged friend this was a perfect accommodation and we'd certainly recommend and visit again.

  Not your issue but my SAT NAV sent me down Avallon Avenue rather than Queens Road.

  which is the next (correct road) Premises 1.Overall, very good, probably exceed my expectations. 2.only issue we had was learning how to open the kitchen back door. (basically you had to insert they key, push the door and turn the key at the same time, rather than insert and turn the key. Notes left by the owner. 1.Very good & useful. particular on eating out, we tried both recommendations, both very good. Location, although a secluded location the local and street lighting enabled us to confidently leave and come back well after sunset.

  The kitchen sink and bowl were clearly not clean, as brown with tea stains.

  In addition the grill pan in the oven had a layer of fat on it, so this had also not been cleaned. The lounge had numerous dead damp Beatles in the corners of the fireplace. The bathroom was clean thank goodness. Outside the yard hadn’t been swept and no broom for us to do it! Therefore spoil the opportunity to sit out there. Finally, parking is a real issue! We managed, but in higher season this would not be possible to park vehicles for five cottages!! We enjoyed our break, but l think the above should definitely be addressed.
