Description by the author

Conwy is a North Welsh village located about 80 kilometers west of Liverpool. The village is almost completely walled in and also has a large medieval castle that towers above Conwy. In addition, Conwy also has the honor and pleasure of having the smallest house in Great Britain. The walk will of course take you past all these eye-catchers and will ensure that a day at Conwy turns out to be no lost effort.
