Forget abroad, North Wales is my favourite holiday destination and has been since childhood. I am now 60 and always holiday in this beautiful country. I've never been abroad, ever, why would I when we have all this? Going again just before Christmas. Can't wait? :)

I have been inside both Aberconwy House and Plas Mawr, fantastic inside. If you are ever in Conwy in season pay them a visit, well worth the entrance fee as there is so much to see. I also visited the castle, but only stayed on lower level due to disabilities. The Catholic church and the beautiful statues were a sight to behold. The second church, St Mary's has lots of character and interesting headstones. Try to visit both when you visit this lovely Harbour town, especially inside the smallest house. I loved every second of my visits in Conwy, and always manage to find something different I missed on previous visits. A town full of hidden gems.

Thanks for your reply, depends on how much you like walking? you could do the castle of North Wales (maybe only a few or important ones, but there are a lot and that's without South Wales? they are very busy in the summer even if they are not that accessable, England has got a Nice lot of Castles too. Then you could do the Walled city's York, Chester(done already) etc. there are lots of history there, have you thought about looking at Bridges in the UK, there are a lot of interesting and famous Bridges that draw the tourist (small and big). Have you thought about a road route say 30/40 miles and pick out interesting places on route? what about Popular beeches and their surrounding interesting places for the tourist?

Glad you liked them, no, but been to loads of places here in UK, and it is easy to observe how people like their country so much every where there are very interesting places to see or learn about, it is very easy to overlook things, because history is everywhere here! and all over people appreciate the things that people like you, do very well, tell people about what they are looking at! like I said its everywhere. let me know thoughts, and see if I can help.

I stayed at the YHA in Conwy and its on top of a hill, heading towards the mountains. The walk up to the hostel was one of my best work outs. I used to arrive panting in the beginning but by the end I was taking it in my stride. (Pardon the pun)

Nice video but a few errors in the commentary. Snowdon is not by far the second highest mountain in Britain. The Morfa/Mulberry Harbour is not in the Quay/Harbour area indicated in the video. RNLI is not Royal Naval.... - it is Royal National.....

Snowdon is 3rd highest in UK by prominence, 19th highest in height. Prominence is an important measure as it gives sense how sheer it rises from the landscape around it. Ben Nevis is, unsurprisingly, highest in both measures.

How long would it take to see all of Conwy's main sights, at leisure? Two or three days? More? Less? I'd appreciate any advice, thanks!

Hi sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I think a fairly leisurely day at most would easily cover Conwy . You could spend another couple of days exploring the area in & around Snowdonia. Hope this helps & if you need more information just drop me a line . rsbjones@outlook.com

I was 12 / 13 we where camping in pensarn / abergele remember the teacher saying this is the smallest house in wales I'm sure we where on a bend in he road and it was in2 the rock face it seemed as 2 have been on the way 2 Snowdon cos that's the only place we went 2 out of camp / I'm sure there was another story about a small dewelling and a dog ,ring a bell with u , lol

Mick, Well, the house in Conwy has stolen the march. They've gotten themselves in the Guinness Book of World Records so the are considered the World's Smallest House. But, I suspect, just as every town in Britain has the oldest pub, there are probably other houses who are also claiming the title. Now, to your inquiry. Your story does ring a bell. It reminds me of The Legend of Beddgelert- www.beddgelerttourism.com/gelert/. The mention of the dog really is what made me wonder. The dog's grave even has what appears to be a little house on it. Man, what a great story. I wouldn't be surprised if you remembered this one all these years! Your story also reminded me a bit of The Ugly House,Ty Hyll, at Betwys-Y-Coed. Your description of a house "in the rock face "in the bend of the road" made me wonder if you were thinking of this house as well. This house is made of "boulders" so it looks like a rock face and is located in a bend of the road. www.theuglyhouse.co.uk/ On your school trip, I suspect you would have traveled the old A5, the original coaching route to Holyhead, which would have taken you past both these places. I am sure someone would have mentioned stories and legends as you were en route. I had a fun time reminiscing about both places. Thanks Mick. Hope I was of some help. Let me know what you think. Rich.

Although my last name is Jones, I'll admit my command of the Welsh language is nonexistent since I grew up several miles up the coast. We always had days out to Rhyl and Prestatyn and Llandudno (which most of us pronounced it with a U). Thank you for the correction. I like learning new things.
