  • "This is a beautiful house and the views are spectacular."

    There is plenty of room - we were a group of 7 adults with 3 dogs. The kitchen is very well equipped and washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets etc were already in a cupboard (we had brought our own as you don’t always get them). We had the main bedroom with a panoramic view of the countryside. This room doesn’t have curtains/blinds so you can enjoy this view but eye masks were provided (we didn’t use them). Everyone said their bedrooms were comfortable. One bedroom has an en-suite that has a bath and shower cubicle. The main bedroom and a second bedroom have wet rooms which we’re not too keen on. Water gets everywhere in them. However, they were as described. The main lounge had a large comfortable sofa with the magnificent view. The log fire was great and a big basket of logs were provided (plus another basket in the second lounge area). At time of going you could purchase more logs for £5 but not needed as a good amount was given.There was access on the tv to Sky, Netflix etc using the owners login or using your own. There is a large lawned area and also a small wooded area to take your dogs. The lawned area is not fully enclosed so keep an eye on them as there are sheep in surrounding fields. The patio could be a lot better as it does need some attention. The wooden decking is rotting in small areas and we felt it needed a proper enclosed railing around as it has a drop to the field in front. Not very safe if you have young children. But we did sit out and it was stunning. I’m sure it is something that will be sorted as this is fairly new to the rental property. There is an EV charger which we made use of. £30 per car which we thought was great value and we only stayed 4 nights. The drive up to the house was probably the biggest downside as it really is a bumpy track that has had a culvert built down the centre for part of it which is quite deep for a small section. Coming down can be a bit slidy if you don’t drive very slowly. This was written in the description so we were ready for it. The owners rang before we arrived to explain some things regarding the house and one then arrived at the house just as we arrived. Very friendly. The location of the house was ideal for what we wanted which was a dog friendly beach (Conwy Morfa), ZipWorld and some of the towns. If you’re a National Trust member, Bodnent Gardens are a 5 minute drive away and they were beautiful. Would we come back to this property, definitely. Great size, clean, beautiful views, great amenities.

  • "We had a very lovely stay at Ty Uchaf, we were are group of friends getting together for a long weekend with small children in tow."

    The cottage was very well appointed, it had all the kitchen appliances and kitchenware for us prepare our meals together. We used the BBQ on an evening as well. The living room was our central spot to play games and catch up and with a brilliant view over to Eryri National Park. The bedrooms were all a good size and our bed was incredibly comfy! If you have dogs be aware that the patio backs directly onto a sheep field and there isn't a complete fence that would stop adventurous dogs getting access, we kept a close eye on ours and it was all fine. The garden itself was large and fenced. The EV charger worked brilliantly and meant we didn't have to bake in any stops on the way to charge our car. For anyone who orders a supermarket food delivery you will need to meet them down at the road and transfer your food into your car as the untarmacked track up to the cottage is very steep and not suitable for delivery vans. All in all it was a brilliant stay. We took a nice walk into the village and had a warm welcome at the Bee Inn, the nearby National Trust gardens is also a must see. Thank you for having us!

The property

Ty Uchaf is a stunning five-bedroom house nestled just outside the charming village of Eglwysbach, Conwy, surrounded by sweeping countryside.

Perfect for families or groups, this spacious retreat offers a blend of character and comfort, with stone walls and floor-to-ceiling windows framing picturesque rural vistas.

Step inside to discover two inviting sitting rooms, one centred around a woodburning stove in 300 year old part of the house, the other around an open fireplace in the modern extension, ideal for warming up after a day of exploring.

The kitchen/diner is well-equipped for creating hearty meals with two ovens, while the utility and study provide practical touches for longer stays.

Outside, the garden beckons with a mix of patio, decking, lawn and ornamental garden around the house, and then beyond, a private field, woodland and stream to explore.

There is ample space to relax and enjoy, whilst being surrounded by fields of a working sheep farm.

Keep your eyes peeled for our resident Buzzards, Red Kites, Pheasants, Owls, Foxes, Badgers and Hares, oh and of course our beehive.

During the day the house is blessed with breathtaking views down the Conwy Valley and over the Carneddau and Snowdonia mountain range beyond.

At night look skyward, with exceptionally low light pollution levels allowing mesmerising views of the stars.

Use our telescope to get a closer look, or sit back and spot the regular satellites and shooting stars.

Venture beyond Ty Uchaf to uncover the delights of the Conwy Valley.

We are within earshot of the closing bell at the world famous Bodnant Gardens, with National Trust Gardens and Welsh Food Centre.

Just a short drive away, the historic walled town of Conwy boasts the medieval castle and charming harbour, perfect for history lovers.

Head to Llandudno for a traditional seaside experience, complete with a Victorian pier and scenic walks along the Great Orme.

For nature enthusiasts, Betws-y-Coed is a haven of outdoor adventure, with cascading waterfalls, woodland trails, and independent shops to browse.

Whether you’re seeking coastal charm, cultural heritage, or countryside tranquillity, Ty Uchaf provides an exceptional base for your North Wales escape.

EGLWYSBACH

Conwy 8 miles; Llandudno 9 miles; Betws-y-Coed 12 miles.

The village of Eglwysbach is in the wonderful Conwy Valley, which is renowned for its beautiful countryside, scenic walks and the world famous Bodnant Gardens. Nearby Conwy, a World Heritage Site, is one of Britain's most unspoilt historic towns. A true medieval gem, the town is dominated by a splendid castle and completely enclosed by its well-preserved town walls - fortified with 21 towers and three gateways, the walls form an almost unbroken shield around the old town. There's plenty to enjoy in Conwy - the picturesque fishing harbour, National Trust's Aberconwy House, Britain's "smallest house" (worth an interesting, if quick, visit!) as well as the town's shops, pubs and restaurants. Close by are good beaches along the North Wales coast and excellent walking, mountain biking, canoeing, climbing and surfing in Snowdonia and the surrounding hills.
