Conwy Cottages with Hot Tubs

Conwy Guide

Conwy's cottages with hot tubs offer a perfect North Wales getaway. This medieval walled town combines history with stunning Snowdonia views, all while you have your own private hot tub to enjoy after exploring.

The area boasts Conwy Castle (4.5/5 TripAdvisor), Bodnant Garden (4.5/5) and the smallest house in Great Britain (4/5). You're just 15 minutes from Llandudno's Victorian seaside attractions and 30 minutes from Snowdonia National Park's mountains.

Conwy has royal connections - Queen Victoria visited in 1832 and was reportedly so impressed by the castle she extended her stay by three days. The town's medieval walls remain almost completely intact - one of the best-preserved ancient fortifications in Europe.

Cottages range from cosy one-bedroom retreats perfect for couples to large farmhouses accommodating 12+ guests. Many properties welcome dogs and you'll find converted barns, fishermen's cottages and modern builds all featuring that essential hot tub.

Sightseeing

Conwy packs an incredible amount of history and beauty into a small area. The imposing Conwy Castle (LL32 8AY, open 9:30-5pm daily, 4.5/5 TripAdvisor) dominates the town. Built by Edward I in the 1280s, it's one of the best-preserved medieval fortifications in Europe. The views from the towers across the estuary are worth the climb alone.

Plas Mawr (LL32 8DE, open 10am-4pm, 4.5/5 TripAdvisor) is an outstanding Elizabethan townhouse. I was amazed by how much of the original 16th-century interior remains intact. The audio guide brings the house's stories to life.

Bodnant Garden (LL28 5RE, open 9:30am-5pm, 4.5/5 TripAdvisor) sits just outside Conwy and covers 80 acres. The famous Laburnum Arch blooms with yellow flowers in late May/early June. We recommend visiting early morning to beat the crowds if you're staying during this peak time.

Don't miss the Smallest House in Great Britain (LL32 8BE, open 10am-4pm, 4/5 TripAdvisor) on the quayside. At just 72 inches wide and 122 inches high, it's a quirky photo opportunity that costs just £1.50 to enter.

Pet Friendly

Conwy is brilliant for dog owners. The beach restrictions are minimal compared to many UK coastal spots. Conwy Morfa beach allows dogs year-round, giving your four-legged friend plenty of space to run. The West Shore Beach in nearby Llandudno also welcomes dogs throughout the year.

Many local pubs welcome dogs. The Albion Ale House (LL32 8BB) is a traditional pub with excellent real ales and a dog-friendly policy. The Erskine Arms (LL32 8AA) not only allows dogs in the bar area but also offers water bowls and treats.

Conwy's town walls make for an excellent dog walk - the complete circuit is about 1.3km and gives great views. For a longer walk, try the Conwy Mountain trail, which starts near the castle and offers panoramic views across Anglesey and the Great Orme.

Most cottages with hot tubs in Conwy will specify if they accept pets, but always check if there are restrictions about dogs using outdoor areas where the hot tub is located.

Top 3 attractions you have to see in Conwy

Conwy Castle stands as the town's crowning glory. This UNESCO World Heritage Site features eight massive towers and a great hall. I recommend taking the wall walk for spectacular views across the estuary. The castle hosts regular events throughout summer, including medieval reenactments that bring history to life. A visitor recently wrote: "Worth every penny. The views from the towers are breathtaking and the information boards tell the castle's story brilliantly."

The Town Walls offer a free activity that gives you a different perspective on Conwy. The nearly mile-long circuit is the most complete in Britain. Start at the Upper Gate and work your way around. The walls have 21 towers and three gateways. You'll get fantastic photo opportunities of the castle, harbour and mountains beyond. A TripAdvisor reviewer noted: "Walking the walls gives you a real sense of what medieval Conwy must have felt like."

Conwy Quay and Harbour is the perfect spot to watch boats come and go while enjoying fresh seafood. The Liverpool Arms pub (LL32 8BB) offers great views across the water. Nearby, you can buy fresh mussels - Conwy is famous for them - directly from the fishermen. The quay comes alive during the Conwy River Festival in July, with boat races and waterside entertainment. After a day exploring, you'll appreciate returning to your hot tub even more!

Is Conwy suitable for children?

Absolutely! Kids love exploring the castle ramparts and the walls are an adventure in themselves. The Conwy RSPB nature reserve (LL31 9XZ) offers wildlife spotting opportunities, while Conwy Valley Railway Museum (LL32 8LD) has miniature train rides that delight younger visitors.

When is the best time to visit Conwy?

May to September offers the best weather, but Conwy is less crowded in May and September. The Conwy Feast food festival in October is worth experiencing, while Christmas brings magical illuminations to the castle.

Do I need a car in Conwy?

While not essential, a car helps explore the wider area. Conwy has a train station with connections to major cities and local buses serve nearby towns. Many attractions are within walking distance of the town centre.

Where can I park in Conwy?

Parking can be limited in summer. The main car parks are at Morfa Bach (LL32 8FZ), Llanrwst Road (LL32 8LD) and the Quay (LL32 8BB). Most cottages provide private parking, which is a significant advantage during busy periods.

Are there good restaurants in Conwy?

The town has excellent dining options. Watson's Bistro (LL32 8AN) serves locally-sourced Welsh cuisine, while Amelies (LL32 8BE) offers fantastic seafood. The Erskine Arms (LL32 8AA) provides high-quality pub food in a historic setting.
