| "In
Wales there are jewels to gather, but with the eye only."
Established as country house accommodation
since 1991, we pride ourselves with having created a little
piece of Welsh heaven that would be difficult to emulate by
any other hospitality provider in Snowdonia.
As a luxury five star highly commended
gold award winning country house operating in the guest house
designated category, just outside Betws-y-Coed, we can be
found listed amongst the finest establishments in Wales, our
private Snowdonian hideaway offers unique, quiet, intimate
and luxury accommodation, and a gourmet sanctuary for the
discerning traveller, who seeks the ultimate of holidays in
Wales.
Independent and family owned the consistent
hand of the owners can be felt at all times; while serving
breakfast; welcoming guests and being a presence in the restaurant
in the evening, we offer a special kind of North Wales holiday
experience suitable for those wishing to stay in a small boutique
country house in Snowdonia. With only a limited number of
rooms and intimate dining for our residents we can offer a
unique experience, with this in mind we therefore do not accommodate
party reservations of more than four persons for accommodation.
Children are also welcome, however we do have a minimum age
restriction of 12 years.
Unlike many other country houses
in Wales, the traditional 17th century Welsh stone exterior
belies, what lies within, for once inside the entranceway
opens into a stunning sequence of intimate, immaculately
designed rooms, where a fusion of traditional and contemporary
style is allied with simplicity.
Tan-y-Foel
means 'house under the hillside,' and perfectly describes
the locality of our award winning holiday accommodation
in Wales, perched 750ft above sea level, nestling amongst
tree covered hills, with spectacular sweeping views of the
Conwy Valley and Snowdonia National Park we provide the
idyllic quiet setting well away from noisy main roads and
high traffic areas, making us just perfect for that Snowdonia
weekend break.
Whilst walking in North Wales you
can explore the breathtaking scenery as well as enjoy great
days out visiting the CADW castles of Snowdonia at Conwy,
Caernarfon, Beaumaris and Harlech. The National Trust places
to visit include Chirk Castle, Erddig, Bodnant Gardens,
Penrhyn Castle and Plas Newydd.
Enjoy horse riding at nearby Gwydir
Stables Ltd www.horse-riding-wales.co.uk or for nature lovers
bird-watching at Conwy RSPB bird reserve.
For arts and entertainment choose
from the North Wales Theatre or Oriel Mostyn Gallery, Llandudno
or the Royal Cambrian Gallery, Conwy.
For urbanites, Chester is only one
hour away and another thirty minutes from there you will
find yourself in the shopping mecca of Manchester.
Alternatively, for those who wish
to leave the car keys behind you can walk or cycle directly
from Tan-y-Foel Country House.
