Conwy

In a nutshell. One of Britain’s best-preserved medieval towns.

Conwy is a true one-off. Well-preserved ancient walls, the most intact in Europe, enclose a town of narrow cobbled streets, nooks and crannies chock-full of historic buildings. And that’s just the half of it. The walls radiate out from a gritty, dark-stoned castle that, even after all these years, still preserves an authentic medieval atmosphere – and still has the power to dominate.

Conwy Castle, a World Heritage Site, was a key part of the ‘iron ring’ of fortresses built around Snowdonia in the 13th century by Edward I to contain the Welsh. The views from the battlements, with the mountains of Snowdonia one way, the Conwy Estuary the other, are stunning. And it’s from here that the entire town comes into perspective, ringed by a circuit of walls over three-quarters of a mile long and guarded by no less than 22 towers.

A Conwy ‘must-do’ is a walk along these walls, before venturing into the streets below and visiting places like Plas Mawr (the UK’s best-preserved Elizabethan town house) and the dinky Smallest House (see if you can fit inside).

Other attractions include the Royal Cambrian Academy of Art and Thomas Telford’s Suspension Bridge. The Conwy Culture Centre is a great starting point for your journey through the story of Conwy County. Housed in a striking modern building just a stone’s throw from Conwy’s medieval town walls, it is home to the county archive, an area library, heritage exhibitions, café and community arts hub.

In town there’s a unique mix of shops to delight and entice – everything from an award-winning butcher and chocolatier to trendy boutiques and galleries.

Over at Conwy Tourist Information Centre, meanwhile, there’s a display of local flavours for take-home souvenirs, including Halen Môn sea salt from Anglesey and flavoured gins from the local Aber Falls distillery.

Call in to find a place to stay, buy tickets, see what’s on, buy gifts or just to say hello to our friendly staff.
