If approaching from the A55 along the North Wales coast , turn off at the sign for Betws-y-coed, which is the A470. This takes you down the Conwy Valley, through Glan Conwy and up and over Bodnant Hill. (Do not fork off to the left to Bodnant Gardens) Approx half a mile from the bottom of Bodnant hill,(It is the only significant hill on this road) you will pass the Tal-Y-Cafn pub on your right. Approx 1 mile further on you will pass the sign for The Plas Maenan Hotel on your left, and about 1 mile from this point, you will see a cluster of houses and a hotel on your right. They are partly concealed by trees. Prepare to turn right here.

The private road is accessed via a gateway on your right, that has large white balls on the top of each gatepost. If you have gone a little too far you will see the Maenan Abbey Hotel. Turn into its grounds and come out of the other entrance that is only a yard or two from the turn down to The Coach House.



If you are approaching from the A5, continue to Betws-Y-Coed, take the A470 at Waterloo Bridge, down the Conwy Valley. Continue through Llanrwst, following the main traffic flow through the square (it flows round to the left). Keep on this road, and after approx 3 miles, you will see the Maenan Abbey Hotel on your left, prepare to slow right down as you need to turn sharp left immediately after the hotel's second entrance. You are looking for a gateway to a private road, with white balls on top of each gatepost.
