One of the Best Places To Visits in Bryn Pydew Frequently mentioned in reviews: Top-rated.online cuts through the clutter, highlighting only the reviews that are most helpful, earn the most likes, or come from the most active contributors. Situated off A55 J18, RSPB's North Wales location takes advantage of a site once used to receive ground excavations for the A55's Conwy Tunnel. The site features freshwater wetland, a modern visitors centre/store, and a cafe. The facilities are excellent, and include ample parking, great accessibility, toilets/baby changing facilities and also a playground. Dog walkers beware that canines are not allowed, however a trail joins the visitor centre to Conwy, and anyone prepared to for 20-30 minutes during summer months will probably reach Conwy Harbour before successfully finding a parking place in town. RSPB is a charity, so be prepared for a modest entrance fee unless your is restricted to the only, and be prepared for well versed volunteers asking for donations! Fabulous place to visit. It's well thought out with beautiful scenery. Great paths for the disabled and chair. Easy walking for the not so able. Great café. Cheap entrance fee. 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended UPDATED MAY 2025 Blue bage bays near entrance and book shop. Staff are mostly helpful and always friendly! I've been on different weekdays as well as weekend days, and the only negative I have had unfortunately was when i took my mum, they forgot to give me the code for the gate on the coastal path and i forgot to ask at the desk when we first entered and showed our membership cards, it meant we had to turn around and back when my mum was a bit tired. The toilets have been in working order and kept clean on the visits I have used them. The serves a good coffee and a nice selection of cakes, and they also have a small selection for dietary needs as well. Alternative milks are also available. Had a very blustery about, but it didn't put the or wild horses off! There was a very friendly Robin bobbing about that my mum had a lovely encounter with! We had a hot drink in the after our to warm up. The new build is a good size and seems to offer the basics! There are 6 toilets near the cafe, unfortunately 3 of these were out of order when we were there so there was a bit of a queue for the loo, which wouldn't have been so bad if the wind didn't funnel down that bit! As an RSPB Member, I have enjoyed visiting this reserve some years ago. Returning recently, I found the free parking excellent and the staff more than helpful with their knowledge of the site and genuine interest in their visitors. Initially, the place seemed quite busy, but once we started around the walks I was surprised by the quiet tranquillity of this beautiful location. The reserve is also well placed for the wonderful views over the Conwy river, the Medieval Castle and towards the Carneddau mountains of North Wales. We noticed lots of interesting at the various viewing points and comfortable hides along the way and finished with an excellent coffee from the on site Café to accompany our picnic lunch. There are plenty of clean and spacious toilets near the Café. Well worth a visit! A nice round. Plenty of hides and look outs to see the birds. Only did a small walk. Saw the Water Rail bird. is nice, locally made biscuits and can see by the pond. Toilets by thats all. A wonderful nature reserve, well looked after with wonderful staff and volunteers. They have a small serving drinks and snacks and very clean toilets. There a week stocked shop too. Definitely worth a 5* What a marvelous place. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We were given an excellent overview of the work being done on the site and have to say the enthusiasm of the team is wonderful to see. A special mention for Jake for his advice and guidance. We enjoyed a lovely observing many and a few squirrels along the trail and in the estuary. We stopped at a number of hides and had great fun trying to identify the numerous species going about their business. The scenery and the abundance of made for quite a special day out. Lovely first stop in Wales and we really scored with the weather. Walked the lagoon perimeter and enjoyed some fantastic views out over to Conwy and the surrounding hills. Staff were great in telling us what to expect and where. A great place to break the journey to Anglesey. A round the reserve was relaxing and we saw various wildflowers, including lots of Southern Marsh Orchids and plenty of waterfowl and waders. Seriously beautiful place. Great little family outing. Good value, decent little play area for the kids and the main circular was interesting and not too long for our young kids. We've been meaning to for a long time but actually managed it today as read online there was also a Farmers Market taking place. We had a lovely around and spent time in a few of the hides watching the various birds. Hoping for a lot of rain which will sort out the water problems in the lagoons! We would definitely recommend a and we'll be back soon. A nice day out. Enjoyed walking round and viewing the birds. The staff in the shop were very knowledgeable and the service is the was very quick and the tea was served in beautiful crockery.
