Back in Conwy



We got back to our base in Penmaenmawr from Llanberis in the early afternoon but we weren't hanging around for long. Instead, we headed off to Conwy, taking the road via the Sychnant Pass. Conwy is one of my favourite old towns in the UK. The medieval walls are still largely intact and the castle dominates the town. It also has great views across the bay. The main drawback is that there are often lots of cars (and we were as guilty as everyone else visiting by car). Fortunately we got a parking space next to the walls.



We have visited the castle and walked the walls in previous years so this time we were just looking to have a late lunch and wander around for a bit.



One of our favourite places for relaxing is on the waterside, next to the smallest house in the UK! There was a queue to go in so we gave it a miss.



Our late lunch was at the George and Dragon on Castle Street. Food was pretty much what you expect from a pub and despite being on the tourist route, was not pricey. What attracted us however was the chance to eat our meal in the garden at the back.



Back to Penmaenmawr afterwards.
