We decided to stop one night to escape sons all night jamming session. The welcome was gracious and room was both comfortable and pretty. The breakfast tables were decorated with old world charm and looked out into a restful view. The breakfast itself included all the trappings. If you are looking for a a place to unwind this it it....

I adore this house. We had stayed before and totally fell in love with it. Liz is a very beautiful Lady and is the perfect host and her breakfasts are to die for. We stayed in Rosslyn this time and had stayed in Molly's chamber and The Captains room before. There is a Pancake house next door and their Anglesey... More

We booked in at the Glyn Isa for one night as we fancied a night away and decided to visit nearby Conwy. We wanted something a little off the beaten track and this hotel really is, but its not difficult to find as long as you take the time to get a map/directions. Lovely welcome when we arrived and we... More

Glyn Isa could be described as a lovely B&B - Full of antiques, lovely decor and really peaceful. The hosts were nice people, very welcoming and helpful. The breakfast the next day was excellent. However on our visit, our room was not cleaned properly. The television and area surrounding it was thick with dust. Also next to the bed, the... More

A wonderful place for a romantic break. The hostess was very attentive though discreet, making us feel more like house guests. The room was as in the website photo, charming and cosy without being twee.The breakfasts were tasty and freshly cooked, room cleanliness was of a high standard contributing to make the stay delightful.

We booked late and we had only one room available, Dollys Chamber but this proved to be a room full of real olde world charm. The hosts Liz and Darren are fantastic and you do not feel like paying guests but more like friends. Breakfast is good albeit at 08.30 it may not suit those looking for an early getaway.... More

We stayed here for 3 nights while touring North Wales last week. The house is beautiful and is full of so much character from another age. The location is perfect, being just outside of the city of Conwy in the middle of the countryside. It's extremely quiet and peaceful, set back from the street. The owners, Elizabeth and Darren couldn't... More

A truly fantastic B&B with lots of charm and character, it is perfectly located for the nearby attractions of Bodnant Gardens, Conwy and Betws Y Coed. We had the pleasure of staying one night in the tastefully decorated Bronte Room, with its comfortable 4 poster bed and en-suite shower room. Our host, Liz was really helpful and accommodating and made... More
