"Perfect stay in a lovely cottage."
Super friendly owner. Great spot and we appreciated the garden too. Really comfortable, cosy and well appointed cottage, conveniently located for for everything conwy has to offer.
Thank you for your great feedback, it is very much appreciated. We hope to see you again in the future. Julian & Beverley Property Owner

"Excellent stay for our second visit to the property."
Julian the property owner lives 3 doors away and is always helpful to attend to any concerns.Previous feedback highlights access difficulties and parking restrictions.This is not true ,yes you need to reverse but there have been temporary property renovations in the street that are almost finished. Best parking for properties within the walls of Conwy.So don't dismiss out on the opportunity to visit this property based on previous feedback.
Thank you for your feedback, it was great to see you again and we hope to see you again the future Property Owner

"This cottage is superb, spotlessly clean, complete with all mod cons."
As regards to being dog friendly beds, throws and bowls were all provided. Julian the owner who only lives a couple of doors away and is really helpful and even carried our cases in when we arrived. We certainly will be staying again and would reccomend to anyone.
Thank you so much for your feedback. It’s was lovely to meet you and we hope to see you again in the future. Julian & Beverley Property Owner

"The parking is a nightmare!"
You have to reverse up a very tight road that is on a slight hill and then the space is only really big enough for a small car (like a fiat 500) not anything bigger. There is no way to do a u-turn on the road itself. There was rubbish in the garden including panes of glass lent up against the wall. The owner wasn't particularly helpful and left us waiting over 26 hours to move the glass, even though he lives a few doors down. If you are looking for a secure garden for your dogs please don't think this is - there is a huge gap under the decking that small dogs can get under and the garden wall connected to next door is only a few feet high (which is easy for dogs who jump to get over). The pictures of the garden are completely misleading as this wall isn't shown. There was also dog poo in the garden when we arrived. As we didn't take photos of this Sykes didn't believe us and any issues we had they sided with the owner. We will never book with Sykes again and do not recommend this property in any way.
This is totally unfair feedback. I met you on arrival and everything was fine. We only live four doors away and stated if you have any problems please just knock on. The next thing we got was a phone call from Sykes saying you had left. The parking is excellent with it being the end house. I reverse up and there is plenty of room for my long wheelbase Vivaro van. It is one of the very rare good parking spaces within the castle walls. There was definitely no dog mess in the garden as I personally picked up all the fallen leaves from the tree by hand prior to your arrival, and certainly no rubbish. The pain of glass is a double glazed sealed unit and is very safe behind a screened off area. Which I have moved anyway. The gap below the decking is around 3” as on all decking. The wall is 4ft high on one side and can be seen on the kitchen photos. We have people staying with dogs all the time and everyone always says how good and secure the garden is for their dogs. You gave us no opportunity to rectify any of your concerns and just left asking Sykes for a refund. We are a very dog friendly cottage and stay there ourselves. We have two small dogs and if it were unsafe we would know straight away and rectify it. We take great pride in looking after our cottage and our guests staying there as our consistent good feedback shows. Property Owner

"After booking our Autumn Break inside the Walls of Conwy in North Wales we were really looking forward for our seven night stay in October 2023."
On arrival we found the cottage in Seaside Terrace with the side Entrance and Garden touching the actual stone wall. Inside the cottage was beautiful and although we had to reverse up Seaside Terrace to allow ourselves to easily drive to places outside of Conwy the location of Haven’s End is absolutely fabulous. It was superb to walk around the lovely streets, harbour and castle in Conwy with really nice independent shops, cafes and pubs. The other main highlights was driving about one mile to Morfa Beach to walk our dogs together with driving about 15 miles to the wonderful town of Betws-y-Coed and a few miles beyond to see fantastic views of Snowdonia Mountains. We also visited within minutes the seaside resorts of Llandudno, Rhos-on-Sea and Colwyn Bay.

"We had a lovely stay after a very stressful time."
The owner’s compassion meant a lot to us both, and we definitely recommend staying here.
-
"We had a fabulous stay here at Havens End."
Lovely cottage which was so central to the town of Conwy and all shops, bars and restaurants. We would definitely return so much so we are looking already for next year. Thanks to the host Bev & Julian ....

"Lovely cottage very clean and well kept ."
Comfortable bed . The kitchen had everything we needed to make a meal not that we’d did very often because we went out most nights for something to eat . You could not fault the location just a short walk and your on the Main Street . Will definitely be booking again

"The cottage is in a perfect location and the parking is an added bonus."
We had a relaxing stay.
-
"The cottage was just as it was shown in the brochure had everything we needed and the owner let us know he was only 4 doors down if we needed anything."
House was well stocked and the top floor had great views plus books and games. Garden was great for the dog and the decking was perfect for the excellent weather we had. I would definitely recommend the cottage. Positive for Conwy was onside Street parking but for a large car had to be careful parking took a 7/9 point turn.
-
"The cottage it’s self was immaculate, well equipped and comfortable."
My only issue is there was no mention in Sykes information of the cottage being up two steep hills. This was a problem for me. I think this should be in your advert
Thank you for your great feedback, however, I feel the negative feedback for accuracy of our listing is unfair. Conwy Town is built on hills and these are unfortunately unavoidable when staying within the heart of the Castle walls. Property Owner

"Loved this cottage it was well equipped, very clean and comfortable, very dog friendly."
We enjoyed our stay with our fur baby Poulo. The back garden was secure enough to enjoy sitting outside relaxing with our dog enjoying the sunshine and a few drinks. The extra touches left by the owners such as Prosecco, biscuits, flowers and other little extras was an added treat.
-
"A perfectly placed cottage for exploring the town."
Very clean, comfortable and well equipped. The outside space is a lovely sun trap too. Will definitely return.
-
"We had a lovely time in Conwy, the accommodation was perfect for us, close to pubs, beaches, castle."
Would highly recommend.
-
"Lovely cosy cottage with everything you could need, & for my dog as well."
Courtyard garden ideal, location perfect. Upstairs sitting room ideal to sit & read, though there’s a tv as well. Owner very helpful, & on hand. Didn’t move the car till I left. Nice walks, dog friendly places to eat. Close to Bodnant gardens so visited the day I left. Would recommend & visit again.
-
"Brilliant central location for Conwy, parking outside the house."
Comfortable cottage style house, nicely decorated with thoughtful touches. Looking forward to returning for another break, thank-you Jackie x

"We had a great weekend, the cottage was absolutely amazing."
Excellent location, friendly owners. Already recommended to family and friends. We will definitely be going back.
Thank you for your lovely review. We’re really happy you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you back again in the future. Julian & Bev x Property Owner

"Perfect location, ideally situated in easy walking distance of the harbour, town, castle and walks."
The dogs loved it and so did we. The cottage was nice and warm and we especially liked the openly accepted dog friendliness of the place as we have 3 and one of them is a little princess lol.
-
"We had a fantastic New Years break at Havens End."
The cottage was nicely furnished, very cosy and in a great location. Everything that we could possibly need was provided and the welcome pack was a lovely touch. The garden was very secure for dogs. We loved relaxing in the snug and the views from the velux window are great, especially the castle at night. We all came home feeling fully recharged after our break. Thanks for a great stay! We will definitely be back.
-
"Lovely well kept , clean, cosy property."
Everything you would possibly need and more ,
-
"Lovely cosy cottage and couldn't get a better location with a 1-2 min walk to the shops and pubs yet no noise at night!"
The castle wall runs alongside the property and so you can see the odd passers-by but you can also walk the castle wall yourself and see cottage from a different perspective! The cottage had everything you could possibly need and more including Alexa and hive heating, some welcome goodies, everything you might need for your pooch, tons of blankets amd towels, toilet roll, kitchen roll...... The view from the snug is incredible, especially to peep out of the velux window and see the castle lit up at night. The garden is very secure for dogs. In response to other comments and reviews, yes there is a hint of dog on arrival however you are renting a property which is well equipped for a dog, it was not over powering and the owner has provided throws for the furniture and air fresheners. Dogs ARE ALLOWED upstairs and the guide book now reflects this.

"Really enjoyed staying at Havens End."
Furniture was comfortable also a well equipped kitchen, with a nice welcome pack, what was also nice, salt ,spices etc was provided. Pleasant secure back garden. I would recommend this cottage, reasonably priced and welcoming.
-
"The property exceeded our expectations, it was extremely well equipped and was clean and tidy."
We loved here a job well done by the owner’s.
-
"Unfortuntely the cottage is not welcoming when you enter as there is an overpowering "doggy" smell of which stayed the entire time we were there even with air freshers everywhere."
The living room was not liveable as the furniture was rather pongy. The upstairs loft area however was great and it meant we had somewhere clean and comfortable to spend in the evenings. I am afriad this is the first time I have ever left a negative review!!!
-
"Great location Any issues addressed with kindness."
It's a beautiful house.
-
"A charming little house."
Clean & comfortable and everything we needed was there. Minutes walk from the shops, pubs, castle & quay. Apart from when we first arrived, no issues parking. Please note if taking dogs we only discovered on arrival you are asked not to let them upstairs and a stair gate is in place to deter them. This was not mentioned when booking. Apart from this we would rebook this property.
Hi thank you for your feedback. Dogs ARE allowed upstairs. I can only assume you have misread it in the welcome pack or we have worded it incorrectly. Very sorry about this, we will delete it from our welcome pack to avoid any further confusion. The stair gates are for child safety and for people who prefer their dogs to sleep downstairs. Thank you again Julian & Beverley Property Owner

"Lovely little cottage in a great location."
We had a tiny issue that was resolved immediately. Extremely happy holiday!!
-
"Cottage is in a good position very close to all amenities."
Has everything you need. As others have said parking is a 'challenge' but managed to get a pickup parked up no problem.
-
"Excellent cottage, had everything you could possibly need, amazing location, few minutes walk from restaurants and shops."
The only thing I would say is, is the parking is tight, especially if the street is full of cars.
-
"Nice cottage, had everything we needed, including treats, balls and throws for the dogs."
Ideal position in Conwy. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
-
"We were very impressed with the cottage."
It was so nice to arrive and find it warm and welcoming. There were some very nice touches, welcome pack and flowers on dining table. Also very much appreciated the throws being available to cover the sofa to protect it. The cottage is well equipped , comfortable sofas, bed , nice fluffy towels We were so impressed , we have rebooked. Thank you .

Havens End rests wonderfully in the heart of Conwy on the North Wales coast, inside the renowned Conwy City Walls.
Havens End is newly refurbished and surrounded by the delights of this popular tourist town, and offering high-quality accommodation for four people, this is an excellent choice for a family break by the sea.
This sumptuous holiday home is tucked away from the vibrant town centre; step inside and be greeted by an immaculately furnished sitting room which is graced with an attractive feature fireplace and plenty of snug seating to unwind on after a day of exploring.
Next to this, find a charming, traditional country cottage-style kitchen/diner, laced with splendid light grey units and featuring a wooden dining table, the neutral overtone gives it a real homely feel.
Take the stairs to the first floor where you will find the two peacefully decorated bedrooms, a pleasant double and a bunk room both benefit from pretty feature fireplaces and provide the ideal accommodation for a family of four.
Also on this level is a well-appointed traditional family bathroom, playing host to a bath with a shower over.
For some quiet time away from the group, head up to the characterful eaves of Havens End upon the second floor, here you will find a comfortably finished snug room - just perfect for sitting with a book or your headphones in away-from-it-all.
This room also has a TV and to the right through the skylight you will find excellent castle views, particularly at night.
The calming enclosed garden to the rear of the property rests within the well-known Conwy City Walls; it comprises a gravel area and a tranquil decking just perfect for enjoying a relaxing drink or two under the sun.
Roam the quaint streets of Conwy with ease from this home-away-from-home, its assortment of fine restaurants, shops and cafés lie at your fingertips, as does the town's beautiful castle and the famous Smallest House in Great Britain.
Across the Conwy Suspension Bridge, you will find the village of Llandudno Junction which leads towards the ever-popular Llandudno itself - a seaside resort bursting with charm, attractive architecture and a range of superb attractions.
After exploring all that this sublime coastline has to offer, why not head inland into the magnificent Snowdonia National Park?
Tour this marvellous region of Wales from the inviting Havens End cottage.
About the location
CONWY
Llandudno 5 miles; Betws-y-Coed 16 miles.
Conwy, a World Heritage Site, is without doubt world famous for its historical and architectural heritage, yet at the heart of the town lies a hub of bustling activity. Alongside its ancient festivals and fairs, musical recitals, galleries and historical attractions, there is an array of specialist shops, restaurants and hotels. Built for King Edward I between 1283 and 1287, Master James of St George's design, Conwy Castle remains one of the most outstanding achievements of medieval military architecture. The distinctive, elongated shape, with its two barbicans, eight massive towers and a great bow-shaped hall was perhaps determined by the narrow rocky outcrop on which the castle stands. The town is proud of its historic traditions and celebrates its past by retaining many of these in its annual festivals, events and fairs, including the Honey fair, Seed fair and Gwledd Conwy Feast in October, along with other musical events throughout the year. Conwy is the perfect base for exploring the dramatic Snowdonia National Park, walking unspoilt sandy beaches, or taking in the wonderful scenery on your doorstep. Also within reach are the Llechwedd Slate Caverns, which has the longest zip wire in Europe, and Surf Snowdonia is just six miles away.
