https://conserveconnect.com/properties/wales?format=rss&page=1&location_id=14 ConserveConnect en Tŷ Hyll, widely known as the Ugly House, is a distinctive Grade II listed early nineteenth-century cottage standing beside the A5 between Betws-y-Coed and Capel Curig in Eryri National Park. Built from massive undressed boulders and closely associated with the development of tourism in North Wales, it has become one of the best-known historic landmarks in the area. Since 1988 the property has been owned by Cymdeithas Eryri (the Snowdonia Society). It served as the Society's headquarters until 2010 and has subsequently operated as a tearoom, honeybee hub and demonstration site for woodland conservation and wildlife-friendly gardening. The adjoining land includes gardens and woodland that have formed an important part of the property's environmental and visitor role. Tŷ Hyll is now being offered for sale by unconditional online auction on 23 September 2026, with a guide price of £199,000 plus fees. The sale includes approximately 5.19 acres. Its established public identity, heritage significance, roadside location and landscape setting provide opportunities for continued hospitality, visitor, educational, conservation or other appropriate uses, subject to the necessary statutory consents. https://conserveconnect.com/properties/ty-hyll-the-ugly-house-capel-curig-eryri 67e103b0761e60683e83c559be18d40c Sun, 20 Sep 2026 21:39:33 +0000 Civic, Community & Cultural
