Wonderful stay. Susan and Stewart are incredible hosts. This beautiful country home looks like a castle. Gorgeous rooms and the breakfast and evening meals were delicious. Big group stayed for a birthday celebration ranging from 3 months to 80 and we all loved it. Nothing was too much trouble and they made it very special. The grounds, the rooms and decor were all very impressive. Will definitely be returning. Location was great for Conway bay, marina, promenade and castle.

Was treated here for an anniversary night away from the kids during our holiday to Abergele. Well needed after a few days in the arcades, walking miles around zoos and seasides etc.. Left the smalls with babysitters and headed here to a huge room, beautifully decorated and that bath 😍 Other half earned himself some brownie points!We left well rested and refreshed, especially after a fabulous breakfast downstairs (good selection of yoghurts, fruit, cereals, packaged brownies and waffles, jams etc followed by a decent cooked breakfast, great coffee, juices... definitely set us up for the day!)Loved the shared spaces that could be enjoyed at leisure, the honesty bar was a bonus with an ice cold Welsh cider going down nicely with a game of pool.Yes there was a couple of cobwebs around, but the room itself was spotless, the building beautiful, and the couple that run it clearly work incredibly hard to ensure people have a great stay with them.Would definitely recommend a stay!(side note, we ate at the wheatsheaf inn, a 5 min walk- good grub in a proper country pub!)

A very impressive property on some quiet expansive grounds. The owners are very friendly and the king-size room is very comfortable and impressive. As the room was on the ground floor there were some natural sounds coming through the door but by and large it was a peaceful stay .

Stayed for two nights in a twin room and we were not disappointed. We had an evening meal the first night which was home cooked and delicious. Breakfast was also amazing and plentiful. Could not fault the stay which was very relaxed and would recommend.
