Blossom time at Bryn Eisteddfod Bryn Eisteddfod

The gardens demonstrate the history of garden design of the last few centuries. They include a Dutch walled garden, with ancient specimens of mulberry and medlar.

A natural 18th century garden extends down to the Conwy River, while the 19th century kitchen garden is home to a vinery, peach and nectarine houses.

The 1920s arboretum has rhododendrons, azaleas, specimen conifers and, with the coming of the spring, snowdrops and bluebells.

Opening times: From June to September betwwen 2pm and 5pm or by appointment, any time of the year.

Directions: On the junction of the A470 and A55 (nr Colwyn Bay), turn uphill towards Bryn y Maen.
