Why choose Conwy for your group getaway?
As well as being the perfect base to explore Snowdonia National Park, Anglesey and the North Wales Coast, Conwy is a jewel that offers a full itinerary all on its own.
This medieval harbour town is picture-perfect and sits along the north coast, near the Conwy River. Its pretty narrow streets are cobble and stone-lined and sit within the dramatic shadow of the impressive castle that sits on a rocky outcrop.
The origins of Conwy date back to the 1200s and there is a lot of history waiting to be discovered, the most popular of which being the magnificent Conwy Castle.
This remarkable stone fortress and the town walls were built in the 13th century by the order of King Edward I. As the King attempted to take control of the whole of the UK, there was much resistance by the North Wales population and battles soon commenced. Due to this, King Edward decided to build several castles in North Wales to act as an iron ring and Conwy Castle was one of them.
The castle is now listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and you can enjoy everything it has to offer from its towers, rooms and spiral staircases as well amazing views over the town, harbour, mountains and Snowdonia National Park.
For a spot of opulence, head to the 16th-century Plas Mawr townhouse on the high street. This beautiful house is said to be the finest standing house of its era and you can see how the wealthy merchant Robert Wynn lived in his wonderful Elizabethan home.
Watch the world go by at Conwy Marina and Quay. Grab some fresh fish and chips or a pint at one of the pubs, marvel at the Quay House, the smallest house in Britain and enjoy a gentle stroll while you take in the wonderful views. In the summer, you can even watch boat racing at the annual Conwy River Festival.
For an epic family day out, visit the Conwy Nature Reserve. You'll be treated to birds of all shapes and sizes, and they usually hold activities and events to get stuck into such as bird watching, guided walks and farmers markets.
If you fancy taking it a bit easy, head to Bodnant Garden, one of Wales' best gardens and wander around the lawns, intimate corners, stunning ponds, pretty terraces, wooded valley and stream. You can see plants and flowers from all over the world and it is a lovely activity for all ages.
Fifteen minutes away is Llandudno, the largest seaside resort in Wales. There's an award-winning beach complete with a Victorian pier as well as donkey rides on the sand, plenty of ice cream and seaside treats and a Punch and Judy show in the summer months.
