Conwy, a World Heritage Site, is unquestionably well-known around the world for its historical and architectural legacy, yet the centre of the town is a hive of busy activity. There are numerous specialised stores, eateries, and motels in addition to its traditional festivals and fairs, musical performances, galleries, and tourist attractions. Conwy Castle, which was constructed for King Edward I between 1283 and 1287, is still regarded as one of the finest examples of mediaeval military construction. The castle's unusual, elongated shape—complete with two barbicans, eight enormous towers, and a large bow-shaped hall—was likely influenced by the castle's location on a small rocky outcrop. The Gwledd Conwy Feast, the Honey Fair, the Seed Fair, and other yearly festivals, events, and fairs, as well as other musical occasions throughout the year, are just a few of the town's many annual celebrations of its historical traditions, which it is pleased to uphold. Conwy is the ideal starting point for exploring the stunning Snowdonia National Park, strolling along undeveloped sandy beaches, or taking in the breathtaking nature right outside your door. The Llechwedd Slate Caverns, which have the longest zip line in Europe, are also close by, while Surf Snowdonia is only six miles distant.

! Perfect for our family. Grandmother, son, his wife and 8 year old son. Lovely little outdoor table in the rear for suppers. Two bathrooms and four bedrooms was perfect .The location was perfect for northern Wales castle visits and only a few blocks to Conwy castle itself! Evening stroll along quayside only a block away. High Street full of shops and places to eat. We walked all around the quaint town. We day-tripped to Snowdonia, Manchester and Wrexham.

It is so convenient for shops and restaurants and has retained a lot of its historic charm. The kitchen is well-stocked and the lounge is fabulous - very comfy settees. The main difficulty is with the parking - there was some confusion involving the owner of the kebab shop and our next door neighbour. Also, I thought that the back yard needed some TLC. I spent quite a while sweeping it to make it a bit nicer.
Carole
Very much appreciated the generous welcome pack with cakes and Prosecco as well as all the essentials. Ideal location for exploring all that Conwy offers. Would definitely recommend Sea Chest.
