Overview
Nestled in the picturesque embrace of the charming village of Trefriw within the Snowdonia National Park, Tearoom Place stands as a captivating testament to the seamless fusion of tradition and contemporary flair. This haven of comfort and style beckons visitors to an unparalleled retreat in the heart of Snowdon's foothills. From its unassuming exterior, this 1840 heritage property has undergone a masterful transformation, emerging as a resplendent six bedroom, three storey abode, capable of graciously accommodating up to twelve guests. It was previously the local tearoom, hence its charming name. Tearoom Place is the perfect property to bring the generations together and to spend a special, active holiday with your favourite friends
Passing through its threshold, a world of sophistication intertwined with the warmth of yesteryears opens up. The open plan expanse, where living, dining, and kitchen seamlessly converge, sets the stage for convivial gatherings. A wonderfully chic, fully-equipped kitchen shares space with an expansive dining table, encouraging shared meals and jovial conversations. Beyond, a lounge area adorned with an L-shaped sofa and love seat revolves around a crackling log-burning stove, casting a cozy spell that seems to whisper tales of old. A magnificent 60-inch Sky Glass TV adorns an opposing wall, offering the best of modern entertainment. The snug offers a separate area to the lounge, and comes with its own sofa and 65 inch sky TV, just perfect for the young ones.
A journey upwards leads to a floor where slumber is blissfully assured. The spacious bedrooms, each featuring king-sized beds cocooned in soft linens, create sanctuaries of restfulness. A generous family bathroom, graced with both shower and bath, promises relaxation. A practical drying room stands ready to cradle the outdoor gear, a silent witness to the day's adventures.
A descent to the lower ground reveals further marvels. Three additional bedrooms offer flexible arrangements, including a king-size suite and two twin rooms sporting zip and link beds that harmoniously transform into kings at will. A second family bathroom, this one embracing a walk-in shower, caters to the lower level's inhabitants. A utility room, complete with a washing machine and dryer, fulfills practical needs.
The exterior of Tearoom Place is equally enchanting. A private garden, a sun-soaked haven, holds a freestanding charcoal barbecue and outdoor loungers, bathed in the glow of mood-enhancing outdoor lighting. An outdoor dining table invites al fresco feasts, turning summer evenings into cherished memories.
Tearoom Place not only welcomes families but caters thoughtfully to their needs. Cots and highchairs await the smallest guests, while additional infant equipment stands ready with a moment's notice. Pets, those beloved companions, are accommodated upon the premises for a small additional cleaning fee, their presence adding to the warm tapestry of this welcoming home.
Beyond its walls, Tearoom Place stands as a gateway to Snowdonia's splendor. A haven for walkers, hikers and cyclists, it is a serene base from which to explore the surrounding natural wonders. Just steps from the front door, you will experience the charm of Trefriw, a village steeped in history. Just 50 yards away, the local Welsh pub extends a heartfelt invitation.

Luxury self-catering holiday accommodation in North Wales
Nestled in the bear hug of the United Kingdom, North Wales is rich in history, wrapped in natural beauty and adorned with cultural bling. This land of stunning landscapes beckons you, intrepid traveller, to unravel its treasures. Please take a look at our jaw-dropping properties that will make your holiday a wonderful adventure.
North Wales’ showstopper, the Snowdonia National Park, is a playground for nature lovers and hiking enthusiasts. Mount Snowdon, the VIP of the scene, towers above, overseeing the fun. Scenic trails, waterfalls that put your shower to shame and lakes are scattered across this magnificent landscape.
If history is your jam, Conwy Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site is a medieval masterpiece that flaunts military architecture. The town of Conwy is a living history book with cobbled streets and ancient buildings. One amazing landmark, Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, is a 19th-century engineering marvel. Imagine a soaring aqueduct, the Dee Valley below, and views that make you question if you accidentally stepped into a postcard.
The charming village of Portmeirion is a colour explosion. Designed by Sir Clough Williams-Ellis, this place enjoys vibrant buildings, lush gardens and seaside vibes. It is like a Welsh-Italian love affair that birthed a unique destination. Bangor is not just a university town. It is where Penrhyn Castle stands tall, a neo-Norman masterpiece surrounded by gardens that put Versailles to shame. The majestic Snowdonia mountains are the backdrop, adding drama.
North Wales is a theme park for thrill-seekers. Hiking, mountain biking, water sports, it is a playground of outdoor delights. Zip World Velocity in Bethesda takes the cake with the fastest zip line globally, making you feel like Superman over dramatic landscapes.
The coastline comes up trumps too. Llandudno boasts Victorian elegance, a historic pier and a Great Orme headland with cable cars and tramways making you feel as though you have stepped into a period drama. Aberystwyth brings the seaside charm while the nearby charmer, Betws-y-Coed is the tranquil village nestled in lush woodlands, inviting you to escape the chaos.
North Wales, with its blend of natural wonders, historic landmarks and adventure galore, is a love affair waiting to happen. Pack your bags, because each step in this magical land unfolds a new chapter in a story that has been brewing for centuries.
While the image of lush valleys and a laid-back lifestyle are right at the heart of a holiday in Wales, don’t think stunning landscapes and a bit of relaxation are the only thing on offer in this beautiful country. Don’t believe us?
Check out our Wales travel guide – it’s full of handy hints, travel ideas and great stuff for families and groups of friends to do.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesThere are wonderful walks in the Snowdonia National Park and several thrilling zipline adventures. The Penrhyn Slate Quarry, located near Bethesda, is home to Zip World Velocity 2, the fastest zip line in the world and the longest in Europe. You can enjoy the view of brave zippers flying from the Blondin Restaurant. Once this was the world’s largest slate quarry but now you can fly 500m above the bright blue quarry lake. You can learn all about the history of the quarry on a tour. You can also enjoy quarry karts if you are fifteen years old or older at the UK’s only mountain kart venue. Children and adults not quite up to Velocity 2 can enjoy a thrilling ride at the Quarry Flyer with 200m of zip line with two lines sitting side by side. A closer one is Zip World Fforest close to Betws-y-Coed. In a stunning woodland setting there is the Fforest Coaster, the UK’s only alpine coaster of its kind, bouncing fun on Treetop Nets and zipline and adventure courses on Tree Hoppers and Zip Safari. It also boasts Europe’s highest giant swing, Skyride.
Kids also love heading into the magical Gwydir Forest Park which is brimming with glassy mountain lakes, leafy trails through carpets of bluebells and rushing waterfalls. There are fourteen trails in all and fabulous views across the mighty mountains of Snowdonia.
The glacial valleys and craggy dramatic canyons around Betws-y-Coed have been popular with teens and adults for centuries. Those that love the challenge of canyoning, scrambling, gorge walking and getting wet can have great fun here. They can abseil sheer cliffs and zipline across rivers with Seren Ventures. You will be accompanied by a professional instructor and it is absolutely thrilling. There are also amazing mountain biking trails including the Marin Route and the Llyn Elsi Route which heads up to a reservoir.
Another way to discover these fabulous landscapes is to hop in a saddle and criss-cross traffic free bridleways on Snowdon’s eastern foothills. Gwydr Stables is accredited by the Wales Trekking and Riding Association and offers rides from just half an hour long. Otherwise you can go for an all day hack or even two or three day trail rides.
Another popular adventure is to jump on a steam train. The Conwy Valley Railway Museum is the only station in the UK with a footbridge that spans three different gauges of track. The mile long miniature steam railway and the one third size tramcar is great for younger children.
