Ty Gelert

About this property

Ty Gelert is a welcoming holiday cottage set within the historic town of Conwy, North Wales, offering an excellent base for couples or small families keen to explore the coastline and the landscapes of Snowdonia. Inside, the cottage features a well-equipped kitchen with an oven, hob, and fridge, making it easy to prepare meals at your own pace, and a dishwasher and washing machine assisting you with any cleanup. Walk across the contemporary wooden flooring and sink into the spacious corner sofa, perfectly positioned in front of the exposed‑brick feature fireplace with a mounted TV, an inviting setup for cushy movie nights.

The living and dining space blends style and comfort, with artwork adorning another exposed brick fireplace and a circular dining table set beneath a chic statement light, creating the ideal spot to unwind or map out tomorrow’s adventures. Two well-presented double bedrooms offer restful accommodation, served by a bathroom with a bath, shower over, basin and WC. Outside, the enclosed rear patio is arranged with outdoor furniture and suits a quiet morning coffee or a relaxed drink at the end of the day. WiFi, fuel, power, Conwy itself is rich in history, with its well-preserved town walls, impressive castle and independent shops all within easy reach on foot, alongside a choice of cafés and traditional pubs.

The nearby river adds to the town’s character and provides pleasant waterside walks. Llandudno is easily accessible by car for classic seaside days and a stroll along the promenade, while Betws-y-Coed sits slightly further afield, opening up woodland walks, waterfalls and outdoor pursuits within Snowdonia National Park. Ty Gelert offers a well-placed base for discovering North Wales, combining historic surroundings with easy access to coast, countryside and mountain scenery.

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 to enjoy
