“I stayed at this property for one week in mid-October 2024 and was fully satisfied with my stay.”

I was first struck on entering by its cleanliness - the condition was immaculate. The house is well laid out and the kitchen has all you need to settle in and take care of all your culinary needs. The bedroom I used was spacious and the bed was very very comfortable. I slept soundly, which is never a guarantee for me. There was ample hot water and good water pressure.

I was first struck on entering by its cleanliness - the condition was immaculate. The house is well laid out and the kitchen has all you need to settle in and take care of all your culinary needs. The bedroom I used was spacious and the bed was very very comfortable. I slept soundly, which is never a guarantee for me. There was ample hot water and good water pressure. The wi-fi was great and I had no issues streaming on my tablet, though I also appreciated having a tv to catch some news and such. The location was wonderfully, just a few steps from a great pub and from an access point to the old city walls. I found the hosts to be very helpful when I reached out to get a drying rack for a load of laundry I had to do. If I get back to Conwy, I would definitely stay here again.

“We really loved this location.”

Close to everything neat and tidy and the hosts left lots of instructions and helpful notes on parking and sights. The amenities were really nice and modern.

Claire July 2024

“We enjoyed our time in Conwy, and the cottage was a perfect space for us (parent + 12 yr old + 15 yr old).”

I did wish there was a laundry airer for drying clothes. Conwy has the loudest seagulls we have ever heard, but other than that, we slept great!

“Had a great stay at 22 Uppergate Street.”

We booked very last minute (the morning of the day we travelled) leaving the hosts very little time to get everything ready, but everything went smoothly and was ready to go when we arrived. Property was easy to find and was in a fantastic location for access to the town and local attractions. A key safe by the door holds the front door key, allowing a “contactless” check in. Inside you will find a dining table and chairs, large seating area (lounge) with TV. The owners had left plenty of instructions to help with your stay, including parking instructions and leaflets for things to do in the area. A pack of Welsh cakes had been left to enjoy (which I promptly did!) and some fresh milk in the fridge. Kitchen was well appointed and had everything you needed for a stay (plenty of plates, cutlery, etc.) and included a few of the basics that often get forgotten (salt, vinegar, etc.). On the first floor was a great sized bathroom, single bedroom and double at the front of the property. I did struggle a bit with noise from traffic and people walking past talking loudly but it wasn’t a deal breaker that would stop me from returning, but be aware that if you are a light sleeper then the double room might not be for you. For me the location of the property outweighed the noise and the only time I noticed it was later at night. In the attic was a further two singles. Plenty of towels available, beds were comfy enough and overall more than enough room for 4 to 5 people to stay. No parking at the property but, thanks to the instructions left, had no issue finding free parking within a few minutes of the property. Even the paid parking wasn’t too bad if you had to use it (around £7 per 24 hours). The property is a moments walk to the city walls and only a short walk to the town centre and castle. All easily walkable in around 10 to 15 mins at a gentle stroll. Highly recommended both as a property and from good hosting skills.

“A lovely little house in the town walls just next to Upper Gate.”

Easy waking distance to anywhere in town and whilst there is no parking, instructions are in the house to where there is free parking. We'd happily stay here again.

“Beautiful cottage in great location close to everything.”

Comfy sofas and beds. Lovely and clean with really nice bedding and towels. Kitchen has everything you need and more. Heating and fire so was nice and warm. Bathroom lovely with great shower. We parked on the pay and display on the street behind only a few minutes walk away. If you are a light sleeper maybe take earplugs as traffic does go past the cottage at night but again not an issue for us. Also ask in advance if you require the stair gate set up for little ones as stairs are steep. Would definitely recommend and love to return.

“This apartment was in a great location.”

We travelled by train, and it was a short walk to the accommodation and everything we wanted to see in town. It was a cosy apartment - a great place to stay as a family. It had everything we needed. Would highly recommend.

“We have stayed at this cottage twice now.”

It is very pleasant and homely. Very clean and comfortable.

Julie August 2023

“Had a lovely stay in this house.”

parking was a problem but I did see that in the description. The house was clean and comfortable but the attic room was extremely hot and needs a fan or air cooling tower. The outside space was a hit with grandchildren with the castle wall being part of the garden this, did, however mean a constant stream of walkers going by.

“Lovely place to stay 2 mins walk from all the action.”

The cottage had everything you could ever need and was very clean. Owners left lots of information qnd were really easy to contact when needed. We had a lovely stay.

Tamsin August 2022

“Fantastic location and very comfortable cottage with everything we needed for a very relaxing week.”

I stayed with my 12 year old and 20 year old daughters .We know the area well, and I didn’t want to have to drive much. It was lovely to be able to walk up into the wall and there are so many walks in and from the town, and loads to visit within 10-20 minutes drive. There was no parking anywhere nearby due to roadworks and the bank holiday but I didn’t mind parking by the secondary school and walking to and from the car. We know the parking situation in Conwy anyway so this was never an issue and there would have been on road parking under the arch had the road not been closed. The only issue / complaint we had was that the shared , grassy part of the garden was pretty much full of dog poo so we didn’t want to sit out there . There is a dog next door so I guess this is a difficult one to address . We had fabulous weather every day and really wanted to sit out there on the grass . Other than this, I’d definitely book this cottage again and am sad to see it’s for sale and therefore unlikely to be available next year . Many thanks .

“It was a really lovely house.”

Extremely clean and comfortable.

Anne June 2022

“Great little terraced house in Conwy, set just inside the ancient town walls.”

Perfect for us (two adults). There is one double, one single and one twin room so it would sleep 5 at max capacity. It is a 5 minute walk from the centre of Conwy, but there are a couple of take-aways and a great pub pretty much at the end of the road. The facilities are good; we would have much preferred a dishwasher instead of the washing machine, as this is supposed to be self-catering and I don't want to be washing up after every meal. We took our own cafetiere as the Sykes description did not list one, but there was both a cafetiere and a teapot in the property. We met the owners as we were leaving, they are a lovely couple and were interested to hear how we had got on in the house. The bedding is supplied and was clean and fresh - however the duvets were 10.5 tog, so in the summer months you might want to take your own summer-weight duvets. Parking: this can be a problem in Conwy but we were able to find free, on-street parking just up the road under the arch on every day (mid-June), about a 2 minute walk. For unloading/loading you can pull up immediately outside the property.

Jennifer May 2022

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.”

The property was comfortable and welcoming. I struggled with the steepness of Uppergate street, and feel that this might have been mentioned in the description, rather than "a short stroll from the harbour". The one drawback was the open plan nature of the 2nd floor room, meaning that every sound travelled up there, making sleeping arrangements less than ideal. I feel that this was not made clear. There was meant to have been a torch provided, and this would have helped during the 2 hour power cut one night. As the house was spotlessly clean inside, I was surprised that I had to clean the outside windowsills and back door, which were VERY dirty, being covered in bird lime. However, we loved our stay, and the younger members of the group would be more than happy to return. Thank you.

Keyna September 2021

“It far exceeded my expectations in every possible way, the accommodation was superb with back garden views of the castle walls itself, but the handwritten messages for parking, where to go access to the internet, you could see the couple gone to great lengths to be helpful and personal with the information, which was needed.”

I will hopefully at some point go back. but the backdrop of the castle walls!!

- Keyna, September 2021
Lyn July 2021

“A lovely cottage in an excellent location in the centre of Conway.”

My only criticism would be that the “shared garden” was derelict wast ground and not suitable for sitting in. There is a lovely park, however, 5 minutes walk away.

Michael September 2020

“In an ideal spot next to castle”

- Michael, September 2020
David September 2020

“Great location and cottage.”

No issues at all with booking process aside from a ridiculous amount of marketing / promotional emails from Sykes after I booked. Would encourage marketing dept to have a re-think of the volume of emails sent out as they become annoying and just become a blur.

- David, September 2020
Ian July 2020

“The house was ideal: very compact, comfortable and extremely well-located with easy access to all Conwy has to offer.”

The owner, Arfon, was very friendly, hepful and obliging. We had a really enjoyable stay and I very much to stay there again.

Andrea October 2019

“22 Uppergate street is a beautiful cottage right in the heart of Conwy.”

Much more spacious than we anticipated there was tons of space for the five of us . The cottage was spotlessly clean . Contained all the modern amenities you’d expect ( such as fast WiFi) whilst retaining some character and charm. Will definitely visit again.

Tina August 2019

“The cottage was amazing, it exceeded our expectations.”

The power shower was amazing and my girls loved being in the roof conversion, which the views from there were amazing. WE couldn't ask for any lace near to the walls and the castle. it was so central to everything. I would high recommend this cottage.

- Tina, August 2019
Maurice July 2019

“Just off the Main Street , excellent location.”

Spotless with all the mod cons.Very helpful notes left by owner about places to go. Think we might be back.

Claire May 2019

“A superb stay in beautiful Conwy.”

The cottage was in a really great location with close proximity to everything within a short walk. The cottage was beautifully clean and modern, everything worked well. All linen was good quality, beds really comfortable. It was bigger than expected with high ceilings giving it a spacious feel. Having the parking permit with so we could park close to the cottage was brilliant. A couple of notes which would have added to our stay but only for feedback, my Mum (89) would have liked a grab handle at the top of the stairs to hold onto when descending. They are quite steep. The saucepans and frying pan would have been better to use if they were nonstick. A larger mirror in the single bedroom. Waste paper bins in the bedrooms would be useful. Despite the above, everything was superb and we would totally recommend this delightful cottage in this truly beautiful town. Thank you.

Nick May 2019

“22 Uppergate was clean, comfortable and very welcoming.”

There is ample space for four adults and will easily accommodate a family of four. There was coffee, tea, sugar and fresh milk in the fridge and Welsh cakes on our arrival (thanks). Conwy is a beautiful Town which we all intend revisiting with all the amenities just a stone's throw from the cottage.

- Nick, May 2019
Gary May 2019

“Great location in Conwy!”

Walking distance to castle, pubs, restaurants, waterfront and shops. Bus and train service to surrounding area just 6 minute walk. The cottage itself is modern and clean. Nice kitchen (we did cook some), seating area with flat screen tv and a dining table. You must be able to use stairs since bedrooms and bathroom are on the second floor.

“This is cottage is ideally located near all the amenities in Conwy and the perfect base to explore all Conwy has to offer.”

It was spacious,clean, had all the utensils you would need for your holiday and had a lovely view of the wall and was a perfect property to celebrate my mum's 50th birthday. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be booking again

Lin September 2018

“The cottage was delightful and lacked nothing.”

It is in a fabulous location for the town and castle walks and also for exploring the general area. Llandudno and Colwyn Bay are within easy reach and there is RSPB Conwy Nature Reserve which is well worth a visit. Upon arrival there was a welcoming note and milk in the fridge and delicious welshcakes. We will be back.

About the location

CONWY

Llandudno 5 miles; Betws-y-Coed 16 miles.

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.
