Chalet Taking Steps Towards Sustainability

The Cabins Conwy is the perfect getaway for eco-conscious travelers who wish to bask in the raw beauty of the Conwy Valley and the majestic Snowdonia Mountains. This establishment features two romantic eco cabins that effortlessly blend relaxation with a commitment to sustainable practices. Each cabin is a masterpiece of eco-friendly architecture, boasting high levels of insulation, thereby reducing energy consumption.

Constructed from locally sourced, sustainable timber, the cabins exemplify the essence of eco glamping. The location is just as eco-conscious, with the cabins tucked away in a sprawling three-acre expanse of verdant Welsh meadow. This previously intensively farmed land has been allowed to regenerate, transforming into a natural wildlife haven. At The Cabins Conwy, guests can soak up the serene surroundings while appreciating the commitment to environmental stewardship.

We minimise any food waste very effectively by asking guests to order their breakfast in advance and adjusting their order each day. We do not use sachets in the breakfast room for sauces as we use recycle the mini jam jars and use those for sauces and other purposes including a small gift when guests leave the hotel. The milk in the rooms is provided in glass bottles. We do not change the towels or bedding unless guests request the service as they are on a longer stay. We provide tap water in the rooms in glass bottles which are refilled as required. We do not use table cloths that require washing - just place mats that are wiped each day. The china we use is vintage and has been in the family since the 1970s and we source other serving/decorative items from the local charity shops. Many of the cushions in the hotel are made from up-cycled fabric. Due to the close proximity of the hotel to all the local attractions we encourage people to park their car here and walk to restaurants and other parts of the resort by providing maps and suggested walking routes. We provide the open top bus timetable and other tips on enjoying Llandudno without using the car. We have a link on our website to train services for booking rail tickets to visit the resort.
