Hotels and Guest Houses

Situated above the River Conwy, with spectacular views of the Snowdonia range, the National Trust's Bodnant Garden is one of the finest in the Britain.

The gardens were laid out by the 2nd Lord Aberconway in 1875 and were presented to the National Trust in 1949. The rhododendrons, camellias and magnolias are a truly magnificent sight in the spring, followed by herbaceous borders, roses and water lilies in the summer and glorious colours in the autumn.

Bodnant has many other attractions, including a laburnum arch, a lily terrace and a stepped pergola; in the Dell, formed round a little tributary of the Conwy, is the tallest redwood in the country. The pretty Garden House was built in Gloucestershire in the 1730s and was later used as a Pin Mill before being brought to Bodnant in 1938. The garden has a shop (not National Trust) and a refreshment pavilion. Bodnant, which is open from mid-March to early November, is located off the A470 eight miles south of Colwyn Bay and Llandudno.
