About this property
Tucked away in the coastal town of Penmaenmawr, Conwy, is this wonderful, terraced house, 6 Erasmus Street. Enjoying a superb location just moments away from the beach and on the outskirts of the stunning Snowdonia National Park, 6 Erasmus Street is a fantastic dog-friendly choice for a group or family. Step inside, where you will discover a well-equipped kitchen for rustling up your favourite dishes, ready to savour at the dining table for six or alfresco out on the rear enclosed patio. After dinner, relax in the inviting sitting room on the corner sofa in front of the electric fire as your favourite show plays out on the wall-mounted TV. Follow the stairs up to the first floor, where you can end your day with a soak in the bath or freshen up under the overhead shower, before retiring to one of two tastefully decorated bedrooms, a king-size and a double, both with their own TV. Explore the town, where you can treat your loved ones to a delicious meal at Alexandra or The Village Bistro, stock up on essentials at the convenience store, order in Chinese or fresh fish and chips from two takeaways, grab a light bite at the Snowdonia Animal Sanctuary Café, tour the Penmaenmawr Museum, or spend a day on Penmaenmawr Beach. From here you can easily access the historic town of Conwy, home to a magnificent castle, a gorgeous beach, The Smallest House In Great Britain, Plas Mawr, and the welcoming eateries of The Jackdaw, LAVA, Watson's Bistro and The Erskine Arms. For scenic hikes and bike rides, venture into the Snowdonia National Park, where you can visit the stunning Aber Falls, take on the famous Snowdon Peak, explore the treetops of Zip World Fforest in Betws-y-Coed, or underground mines at Zip World Llechwedd in the World Heritage town of Blaenau Ffestiniog. Further afield, you’ll find Llanberis, where you’ll find the National Slate Museum, Dolbadarn Castle and the nearby World Heritage Site of Dinorwig Quarry. All this and more awaits at 6 Erasmus Street.
Penmaenmawr, North Wales, is a former quarrying town that has been transformed into a charming hamlet along the coast. It is located between Llanfairfechan and Conwy and features a wonderful golf course, golden sand beaches, and numerous local pubs, restaurants, and shops. Conwy Harbor, Llandudno, Puffin Island, Anglesey, and the Irish Sea are all visible from Penmaenmawr and its sister settlement Dwygyfylchi, which are all located on the side of Tal-Y-Fan. Dolphins and seals can sometimes be spotted playing in the bay. A new bike path has opened up along the coast, connecting Llanfairfechan in the west to Conwy Marina in the east. You could also hike the Sychnant Pass and the surrounding mountains in the Conwy valley. Penmaenmawr has a thriving sailing club that attracts day visitors, as well as a 9-hole golf course nestled among the beautiful coastal scenery at the village's foothills. The promenade features many attractions, including a skate park, a children's paddling pool, and a beach cafe that is open for business for the better part of the year. A number of beach shacks are available for daily rental along the boardwalk. There is a bowling alley and all-weather tennis courts close to the shore as well.

We don't own dogs, so a slight dog smell was apparent to us but was mild considering it is a dog friendly house. The sofa was very comfortable although the bed in the big room was too soft for me so I slept on the sofa bed which gave me a better sleep than at home. The blade of a knife in the kitchen broke on me on the first day whilst cutting a pizza and the toilet flush broke just before we left, due to the plastic inside the tank connecting the flush handle to the chain breaking. Also the brush on the vacuum cleaner was full of dog hair making it hard to manuver. Other than the couple of inconveniences mentioned, our stay was very comfortable and delightful and I would reccomend you to others as we all enjoyed the feel of the property. The bath and shower was amazing which was very handy for washing children whilst also being luxurious for the adults. The wide open dining area which is viewable from the kitchen was convenient for the children. A large dining table to enjoy meals as a family. It was all very convenient. Great location. Wonderful beach with an absolutely breathtaking view! Not far from llandudno, Conwy, Bangor ect. We had a great stay. Thankyou so much!

Village centre and shops are within walking distance - hills are steep but that's the truth in any mountain village. And Pen is a great spot to return to after days out around Conwy, Snowdonia and Anglesey. We couldn't fault the cottage which was comfortable and well equipped. The property is a former quarry worker's cottage so you are very close to neighbours and the back courtyard is tiny. But neighbours were pleasant and pretty quiet and with the mountains and sea literally outside the door, you don't really need much of a garden. The only little niggles I can think of would be the need for a bedside light in the smaller bedroom and some hooks for damp coats and gear. Thank you for our stay; we thoroughly enjoyed it.
