“Visited for my Dad's 70th birthday with my family, House was so lovely with all amenities to hand, beds were super comfy, fully stocked kitchen, hot tubs were ready to use and plenty of towels.”

There were a few tiny things that are just feedback, but it really didn't impact our stay . The enclosed area out the back was not accessible and with us having dogs it would of made it a bit easier as the main garden isn't fully enclosed for wandering pets. Some of the curtains and blinds could do with a little TLC for when you need to open and close them.BUT this didn't impact on us and the house was so lovely and homey, we would definitely visit again.

Chloe September 2024

“We had a wonderful stay at Gwern Borter Manor.”

The house and garden were so beautiful, a perfect setting for a celebration with our friends and family. The house had everything we needed, plenty of glasses and crockery, and the hot tubs were a welcome addition! It was in a quiet location, surrounded by trees and peaceful nature. We enjoyed lots of dog walks straight from the door. Before we stayed, the owner made us feel very welcome before we arrived and helped to make everything great about our stay. We would highly recommend to anyone.

- Chloe, September 2024

Thank you so much for the lovely feedback. It’s a great location for exploring North Wales Property Owner

Iona May 2024

“We had an amazing two night stay in the property.”

It is very well appointed property and with very comfortable beds. Beautiful gardens and amazing hot tubs! It is also in a stunning part of Wales! My only thing I would flag is a few maintenance things: the kitchen sink tap is leeky, a few of the cupboards had loose handles and one of the bathroom showers (four poster room) didn't work.

- Iona, May 2024

Thank you so much for your feedback. I have the issues to our maintenance team and they have been resolved Property Owner

Lovely place in a lovely area,only down side was that the dogs couldn't roam in and out to garden as there is no gate,we would of let them roam in and out from the boot room to small area with railings but the was no key for the door,otherwise it was an enjoyable stay

- Linda, April 2024

Thank you for your feedback. Apologies about the door, we have resolved this now Property Owner
Pat December 2023

“Wonderful house and facilities with everything we needed in the kitchen.”

The hot tubs were a great success even tho the weather was atrocious.

- Pat, December 2023

Thank you so much for your lovely words. I am so glad you enjoyed your stay. So sorry we cannot control the weather, but do come back and you may have better luck! Property Owner
Claire December 2023

“We loved this house, it was in a beautiful rural location which was great for exploring despite the awful weather and was within a very close proximity to the gorgeous town of Conwy, which we enjoyed.”

The house was very spacious and full of character with lots of receptions rooms for people to have quiet time if they wanted. The bedrooms were well made up and very clean. Only very minor feedback would be that a full size dishwasher would have been better as the house is advertised for up to 20 guests so a half size dishwasher is not appropriate for this number of dishes. Also a few more pans of varying sizes would also have come in useful. Lastly, we stayed over Christmas so would have been more magical if the house was made to look a little more festive, as there was just one small rather sad looking tree in the main living room with no other decorations anywhere in the house. This is just a nice to have though, not a necessity and didn’t spoil our amazing Christmas. We really did enjoy the house and the area and thoroughly enjoyed our Christmas, so thank you so much for the opportunity to use your beautiful house for our special family get together!!!!!

- Claire, December 2023

Hello Claire, Thank you so much for the lovely feedback, I'm so glad you had a brilliant Christmas. The constructive feedback is very welcome too, we have to scratching our heads how to fit in a bigger dishwasher for a while but will look further into it. We will invest in more decorations for next Christmas for sure, it's such a big house clearly what was there (including the 7 ft tree) gets rather lost. Thank again for your comments, we'd love to have you back Property Owner
Laura September 2023

“Absolutely stunning house and location.”

Very well equipped with great quality and tasteful furnishings. Everyone commented on how comfortable the beds were. Owner lovely and helpful. We absolutely loved our stay and wish it could have been for longer. Will definitely look to book again.

- Laura, September 2023

Thank for that lovely feedback. It was lovely to host you and your group and I am so happy you enjoyed your stay. We'd love to welcome you back any time! Property Owner
Iri August 2023

“We stayed at Gwern Borter Manor for one week as a group of 20.”

We had a really lovely time and found it to be spacious enough for all of us. The beds were so comfortable and it was very well equipped with spare towels as a plus. The kitchen was our main hub. It felt very homely and again well equipped with plenty of crockery. Location was perfect for nature walks and short drive to Conwy castle and the coastline, the beautiful village of Betws-Y-coed and the waterfalls. We also visited Zip world for some activity. Overall, I would highly recommend it and would happily return.

- Iri, August 2023

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback, I agree it is such a lovely base from which to explore the stunning countryside around. We'd love to welcome you and your party back Property Owner
Sarah August 2023

“Gorgeous property, issue with lights first evening but this was resolved next day, 2 showers not working at all, not resolved.”

Fruit flies everywhere in kitchen & dog poo in garden. House was extremely comfortable, especially the beds. We really enjoyed our stay despite few issues.

- Sarah, August 2023

Thank you for your feedback. I am pleased we were able to resolve the electrical issue. Sadly we were not made aware of any issue with the showers, flies or dog mess and so were unable to do anything. Following your response I have checked for all the issues mentioned and have not been able find any sign of a problem then or since, but we will stay vigilant Property Owner
David July 2023

“We had a fabulous stay at Gwern Borter.”

It is a beautiful house in a lovely setting and was the perfect location for our family gathering. The kitchen is very well appointed and it was wonderful being able to seat everyone in the dining room.

- David, July 2023

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We are very proud of the house and agree the dining room is the perfect place to gather Property Owner
Rachel June 2023

“Fabulous stay, with some lovely additional touches such as robes, luxury soap and plenty of fluffy towels.”

The hot tubs and saunas were fabulous- easy to operate with clear instructions, and a warm, friendly welcome was given through the super brochure and a welcome email from the owners. A couple of the showers in two of the rooms were running hot and cold, but that is the only small grumble- the house, setting and atmosphere was fantastic and we have made many happy memories as a family! The beds are THE most comfortable I have ever stayed in in my life! I would highly recommend staying at this beautiful home.

- Rachel, June 2023

Thank you so much for the feedback Rachel. I've got the plumber to check the showers, it's really helpful to know. I'm so happy you liked the house, especially the beds! We're very proud of it. You were fantastic guests and left the place spotless. We'd love to welcome you back to any of our properties Property Owner
Charmaine May 2023

“Just spent the May bank holiday staying at this house for my 30th birthday, and couldn’t ask for a better place to celebrate.”

The house is very spacious and was not short of cutlery, cups, plates etc. the hot tubs and sauna was perfect, both really clean and situated in the perfect location for friends and family to socialise if they didn’t want to go in. The views are stunning, the beds are really comfy and spacious, no complaints from any guests. We finished the weekend sitting round the fire in the living room and it was so cosy! Would definitely stay again and recommended to friends and family who didn’t come.

- Charmaine, May 2023

Thank you so much for your lovely words, we're very proud of the house and really glad you enjoyed it. We'd love to welcome your friends and family back Property Owner
Laura May 2023

“Lovely property in a great location.”

Very clean & tidy with great space for a large group and plenty of room for everyone. The dining room provided a lovely space for the whole group to sit down together & no shortage of glasses, cutlery or crockery. Great countryside and walks on the doorstep, not far to drive to lovely beaches.

- Laura, May 2023

Thank you so much for the lovely comments, it's wonderful to hear you enjoyed the house. We'd love to welcome you back Property Owner

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.
