About this property
Ty Bach Twt, a charming two-bedroom home, is nestled in the heart of Conwy, North Wales. Boasting an open-plan layout and a central location, this delightful abode rests within the town walls and is just moments away from amenities, attractions, and the picturesque coast, making it a fabulous base for couples, friends, and families looking for a Welsh getaway. Park up to the roadside and unload your belongings, stepping indoors to find an inviting living space where you can prepare meals in the well-equipped kitchen, gather around the drop-lead table, and unwind with the gas fire for a gentle glow. A handy utility rests to the rear, where you can store your muddy walking gear, watersport equipment, and dirty washing, reached via the enclosed courtyard. When it's time to turn in, head upstairs, where you will find two well-appointed bedrooms, a double and a single, both serviced by a shower room. Prepare a fresh coffee and some breakfast before heading into the courtyard for an alfresco brunch or return later in the day for a tipple under the stars. Explore the beauty of Conwy, a medieval, walled town sat on the banks of the River Conwy, whose cobbled streets are lined with traditional inns, independent boutiques and local attractions; be sure to tour Conwy Castle and The Smallest House In Great Britain, before birdwatching from RSPB Conwy Nature Reserve. Head to Llandudno, an elegant seaside town with a Victorian pier, an impressive selection of shops and eateries, and a cable car to the summit of the Great Orme, or continue your journey to Betws-y-Coed, an ideal base for exploring Eryri (Snowdonia National Park), the gateway to the magnificent mountain range and home to the beautiful Swallow Falls nestled in the Conwy Valley. Delve into a wealth of adventure during your stay at Ty Bach Twt, from mountain biking and horse-riding to boat cruises on the Conwy Estuary or take a day trip to the coast of Colwyn Bay, Towyn and Penmaenmawr for the best of both worlds. Enjoy all of this from the base of Ty Bach Twt.
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, which has the longest zip wire in Europe, and Surf Snowdonia is just six miles away.

We've stayed here before and likely will again. This time we came by train but we could have parked outside easily enough had we used our car. Cottage is lovely, very clean and well equiped but we didn't cook anything. Fish'n'chips plus Edward's baps and pies etc. Great pubs, lovely walks, buses, okay. English senior citizens can get a weekly all Wales bys pass on board bus for £14.50. Conwy is lively and interesting. The walk from the harbour past the small house all along towards the marina is quite stunning as is the walk from the cafe in Llanfairfechan to the bird sanctuary which is spectacular. I could go on forever. Yes, it was lovely alltogether.

Ty Bach Twt is a wonderfully peaceful place; a little jewel in Conwy. Very well equipped, clean, comfortable, and tastefully decorated. I love the nautical and beach-themed ornaments! The welcome items were much appreciated. Arfon and Sian are so friendly and helpful. It is a delight and pleasure to stay at Ty Bach Twt and we look forward to our next stay.

It is small but for the two of us it was no problem. It has a well equipped kitchen and generally the rest of the house was well furnished and very clean. Would definitely stay there again.
