Fantastic location. Supermarkets and food outlets close by. 10mins walk to Conwy. Attic room stairs were very narrow. No tvs in the rooms. Owner went out of their way to put a birthday banner up for my daughter. Could have done with a user manual. Found this useful in previous properties weâve stayed at.

Very clean and tidy cottage with good kitchen facilities and enclosed patio garden and great view of Conwy Castle in the distance. We stayed here for a few days with two grandsons and three dogs during school half term late October 2024. Highly recommended.
