It’s well stocked with local beers and liquors.

Iechyd da! (As they say in Wales.)

The castle

Conwy castle

The Castle was awarded world heritage status 30 years ago.

It’s a magnificent structure with scenic views over the estuary.

Built in 13th century by Edward I, it’s one of the most impressive fortresses ever built in medieval Europe.

One of the best-preserved castles in Europe, the eight towers and connecting walls are still intact today.





Gettting to Conwy

Conwy is off the beaten track, but one well worth making a detour for.

Located on the north coast of Wales, the town is around 75 minutes drive from Manchester Airport.

Best options to reach Conwy are via road or train.

Conwy train station

The closest train stations are Conwy Town and Llandudno Junction.

There is little to no parking in town so a park and ride service has been set up to make your life easier.

Look out for the Conwy Feast park and ride signs as you approach from whatever direction.

For a list of road directions see the Conwy Feast website.
