About this property
Westfield is a warm and welcoming, primrose yellow semi detached cottage. It is only a five minute walk to Conwy's charming high street of independent shops. Follow the stream to the bridge and take the steps or slope to the ancient archway through the medieval town walls and there you are. The railway station is also within five minutes walk from Westfield. This superb holiday home provides warm and comfortable accommodation. The sitting room is at the front of the house and is light and airy. It has a large bay window with a view of Conwy's ancient town walls and town orchard.
It has comfortable sofas where you can spend your evening with your friends or family in front of a cosy log fire. The kitchen diner has a big table for enjoying large family meals and is fully equipped for home cooking. Behind the kitchen there is a lobby for all those coats and shoes plus a utility room with downstairs loo and sink. Upstairs there is a warm, modern bathroom with bath and shower plus three spacious bedrooms with comfy beds. To the front is a sunny gravel garden with lavender, where you can sit looking at the lovely view of the ancient town walls with a cup of coffee while planning your day.
At the rear, steps lead up to a partially enclosed decking area with plenty of seating and BBQ. Beyond is a grassy lawn and a huge apple tree that provides shade on hot summer days plus apples to pick for yourself, of course, in the autumn. Westfield is great for children, with baby equipment including stair-gate, highchair and travel cot. There is plastic tableware and a cupboard full of games. A visit to Conwy castle is a must along with crabbing on the quay, nearby sandy beaches and Conwy's annual Pirate weekend! For older children a free walk around Conwy's ramparts gives amazing views, including a unique view of Westfield itself.
As a center, Conwy has a beautiful 12th century castle, many pubs and restaurants, a historic quayside, medieval houses (that you can visit) and art and craft shops. Its great for a walking holiday as it is close to the Welsh coastal path, the Conwy Valley, Conwy mountain, an RSPB reserve and of course, Snowdonia. In addition there are frequent special events held in Conwy, from the Honey Fair to torchlight processions and Conwy Feast. If you want to jump into a car, within just a few miles are bustling Llandudno with its pier, the wonderful Bodnant Gardens, the fastest zip line in the world and the beautiful wide sandy beach at Colwyn Bay.
Further afield, for day trips are Anglesey with miles of coastline, Chester for excellent shopping and the vibrant cities of Manchester and Liverpool. For family holidays, walking holidays and getting together with friends, Westfield is the ideal cottage, all year round.
The historic town of Conwy is a World Heritage Site and is home to a castle, harbour and variety of interesting shops, good restaurants and pubs. Many events and festivals are held during the year.

We enjoyed four nights there and we're able to explore lots of North Wales and Anglesey in that time. There were no issues with the property, other than one oven that we couldn't get to work and the shower door could do with some attention but is absolutely usable. A great place to stay, in an ideal location.

The location is amazing and view of the castle from the windows is super. Itâs a few minutes walk to the shops and a playground. The house is nicely furnished, comfortable and a really pleasant place to stay. There were lots of other positives about the property: kitchen well equipped, Two fridges and a freezer, spacious kitchen & dining area, small garden, downstairs loo aswell as a main bathroom. Fans in the bedrooms were appreciated. Beds were comfortable. We didnât find it noisy apart from bin morning. Parking - It isnât ideal on the street but manageable. We managed to park two cars near the house every day. If you move the bins back and forwards it makes it a lot easier! A few improvements that could be made: The shower sliding doors were loose and very difficult to control. They would come off the rail. The dining table was lovely and big but the entire table was sticky. Place mats and arms stuck to it. Impossible to clean off. It would have been handy to have a second tv in a house for 6 people- especially for those who have kids. One of the ovens didnât work so we had to just use the long thin oven. Bathroom lock was not working (owner gave us advance warning about this) so there was a bolt at the top of the door instead. My two tweens couldnât reach the bolt so couldnât lock the door when using the bathroom. We really enjoyed our stay and despite the small issues, would happily stay there again. A lovely property.

The property was just perfect. Large rooms, clean and well maintained. There was everything we needed for our 2 weeks stay. The location of the property was perfect for a family with no car. 10mins to train station which was in Conwy. The bus stop was only a 15min walk and that took you to Llandudno. Closet supermarket was a 25min walk on otherside of Conwy Bridge. Weather was perfect, we even had fans in bedrooms which we were very greatful for. Everything was just perfect.
