All about Betws-y-Coed

Surrounded by enchanting river valleys clad in lush green forests, Betws-y-Coed is known as the Gateway to Snowdonia, the first Welsh National Park and home to Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales. Betws-y-Coed is nestled next to the mighty Gwydir Forest, making it a great setting for outdoor activities and adventures. Follow local trails, enjoying the clean air and marvelling at the natural wonders, including the Swallow Falls, as well as ruined mine workings harking back to the area’s industrial heritage.

As you walk along the main street lined with stone and slate buildings, it is easy to see how this idyllic setting encouraged the formation of Betws-y-Coed artists’ colony in the 19th century, one of the first of its kind in Britain. Much of the village dates back to its popularity as a tourist resort around this time and the nearby Trefriw Spa. There is a sense of real pride in Welsh heritage here, so it is fitting that the man responsible for translating the Bible into Welsh in the 16th century was born at Tŷ Mawr Wybrnant within a stone’s throw of the village.

What are the top things to do in Betws-y-Coed?

Tu Hwnt i’r Bont

The next village along from Betws-y-Coed is called Llanrwst, which is where you will find Tu Hwnt i’r Bont (Beyond the Bridge). This ivy-clad house dates back to the late 15th century, and it has been everything from a residential home to a courthouse. It has been lovingly restored and is now used as a tearoom, where you can enjoy Welsh delicacies, including Welsh cakes, rarebit, and Glamorgan sausages.

Conwy Falls Forest Park

Walk through the turnstile at the café and follow the winding path through the woods until you reach the lookout point of the Conwy Falls. This is the best place to take in the views of the water cascading down the rocks in the gorge of the Fairy Glen.

Gwydir Castle

A loving restoration project is underway to preserve a piece of history here, the Tudor courtyard house at Gwydir Castle. Step back in history, with some parts dating to the 14th century, but most having been rebuilt in the 16th century. As well as offering you a glimpse into life almost 500 years ago, you can also enjoy the delights of its fragrant gardens.
