Property information

Tanya and Richard Edwards took over The Courthouse in March 2014. Richard was previously the Tourism Manager for a local authority in Sussex; and has worked in travel and tourism management for most of his career. Tanya has also spent her career to date in the hospitality industry. The Courthouse is unique - originally the police station and courthouse for the Betws y coed area it is steeped in history and full of character. Since taking over the present owners have re-decorated all the guest rooms, replaced all the soft furnishings, carpets and beds and introduced lots of special touches to reflect the history and character of the building. A unique feature which is loved by our guests is the River Conwy which flows past the garden and is overlooked by 2 of our 5 guest bedrooms.

Neighbourhood information

Betws y coed truly is the "Gateway to Snowdonia". It lies at the confluence of 3 river valleys and straddles the A5 trunk road from London to Holyhead, yet is a lovely, tranquil and scenic village. The river Lugwy cascades through the village on its way from the mountains to the sea and is a spawning ground for salmon as well as other species. At the famous Pont y Pair bridge you can see the waters of the Lugwy cascading over the rocks and a mile or two up river there are the famous Swallow Falls. The Courthouse has an enviable location close to the centre of the village yet in a tranquil spot adjacent to the River Conwy. There are many scenic and varied walks from the village itself and we provide printed directions for our guests. The mountains of Snowdonia - and Mount Snowdon itself with it's 8 routes to the summit - are a short drive from the village. Also within a short drive are the most amazing adventure activities on ; offer at 3 Zipworld sites and the country's only man-made surf lagoon - Surf Snowdonia. North Wales has some of the best beaches in the country including the 3 mile long sandy beach at Black Rock. The famous Bodnant Gardens and Portmeirion are also close by
