The Best Self Catering Holiday Cottages in Conwy

Conwy is a complete medieval walled town, small enough to walk end to end in a few minutes, with the castle, the quay and the High Street all close together. The estuary runs along one side, and fishing boats still land mussels at the quay.

More About Holiday Cottages and Self-Catering in Conwy

Go up on the walls first, which cost nothing, then down to the quay for the boats. Give an afternoon to Plas Mawr, the Elizabethan townhouse on the High Street, open March to early November. If your dates are flexible, keep an eye out for the Honey Fair in September.

The valley behind the town runs south towards the mountains, with Bodnant Garden about twenty minutes up it and Betws-y-Coed at the head. Llandudno is ten minutes the other way along the coast, and the A55 passes under the estuary rather than through the town.

On Castle Street there is a house that was old when Elizabeth I came to the throne. Aberconwy House is a medieval merchant’s house — not a church and not a castle, but a place somebody lived and traded from.

Its timbers have been dated to 1417, which puts it up in a town then about a hundred and thirty years old. Very few houses of that age survive anywhere in Wales, and the National Trust owns it now.

One honest warning, because a good many guidebooks have not caught up. It is no longer a furnished historic house you tour. Since it reopened in October 2023 the ground floor operates as a second-hand bookshop, on limited days, and that is the visit. The building is worth standing in front of; just do not go expecting period rooms.

What the town does give you is somewhere small enough to run on foot. Self-catering here means a kitchen inside the walls, the shops of the High Street a few doors away, and the quay five minutes down the hill.

A cottage inside the walls means the car can stay put all week, with everything a few minutes on foot. For a day out, the Conwy valley opens south towards Betws-y-Coed, and the beaches at Llandudno and Rhos-on-Sea are ten minutes east. Come out of season and the walled town is quiet, the Aberconwy House bookshop open and the car parks half empty.

Holiday Cottages in Conwy — your questions answered

How much do holiday cottages in Conwy cost?
Prices for the nine we list start at £80 a night, most between £80 and £130. Conwy is a small walled town with a limited number of properties, so the ones inside the walls go first and July and August are the dearest weeks. Every listing shows its own guide price.
Are there cottages actually inside the town walls?
Yes. A number stand inside the walls themselves, near the castle and the quay, and others are just outside or out along the Conwy valley, which is quieter and greener. Being inside is worth paying for if you want to leave the car all week, because everything is then a few minutes on foot. The listing says where each one stands.
Are they let by the week or by the night?
Both. In high summer most owners hold to full weeks, Saturday to Saturday, and will not split them. Spring and autumn open up, with three- and four-night breaks common and far better value than a July week. The minimum stay is on each listing.
Where do we park, and will a campervan fit through the walls?
Check the listing first, because parking inside the walls is limited and not every property has a space. Morfa Bach is the main public car park at 217 spaces, with Vicarage Gardens at 98 and free spaces at Mill Hill in Gyffin. In anything tall, mind the archways: the lowest, at Lower Gate Street, is only 2.20m high.
Can we bring the dog?
Yes at most of them. Dogs are never allowed on the town walls. The Conwy county beach limits run 1 May to 30 September, and two stretches are closed all year: Colwyn Bay between the pier and Porth Eirias, and Rhos Point. None of those beaches has lifeguards, so treat the sea as unsupervised.

Self-catering in Conwy means your own front door and kitchen, a few minutes from the castle, the quay and the High Street, from £80. Some properties sit within the medieval walls, others out along the valley with more room and easier parking. Rather be cooked for? See the town's hotels and inns or its B&Bs, or everything in Conwy.
