Ysbyty Estate

The vast Ysbyty Estate lies just south of picturesque Betws y Coed and is the largest single estate cared for by the National Trust.

The estate covers 8,000 hectares of high wild open moorland, dramatic river valleys and 51 hill farms.

Many of the tenant farms are less than 100 acres in size and are often very remote.

Some of the farms have been farmed by the same families for generations.

It has always been the National Trust policy to help it's tenant farmers maintain their traditional way of life, hard though this can often be.

The southern part of the estate is largely open moorland, with the beautiful Llyn Conwy set in its midst.

The northern section is mostly farmland interspersed with woodlands on the middle slopes with the hills above,

This remote area of property has some dramatic and very picturesque scenery which is maintained by the hard work of the local farmers and the continued support from the National Trust.
