The youth hostel is set in the pretty village of Rowen, Cowny, which sits on the on the western slopes of the Conwy Valley, between Tal-y-Bont and and the Groes Inn with the Afon Roe, a tributary of the River Conwy, flowing through the village. Rowen has won "The Tidiest Village" Award several times and in the book Crwydro Arfon (1959, by Alun Llewelyn-Williams), Rowen is described as "...one of the loveliest villages in Wales". The hostel boast stunning views across the valley and to Snowdonia National Park and is the ideal base to explore the nearby hills, mountain and breathtaking scenery. The property is a traditional Welsh farmhouse of local stone construction under a slate roof. Accommodation over two levels and has much character and charm.
