Amid 16 acres, surrounded by calm woodland slopes on the banks of the River Conwy, this 4-star gold award-winning Victorian country house offers a unique location in the village, with an emphasis on peace and quiet. Craig-y-Dderwen is a traditional hotel in the small, but popular village of Betws-y-Coed.

    Extremely friendly staff who couldn't do enough to help during the whole of our stay. The room was beautiful and spotless with gorgeous views of the river and grounds. We didn't eat in the restaurant at night but the breakfast was amazing!
