St Mary's Church, Betws-y-Coed

St Mary's Church, Betws-y-Coed Located in the busy tourist village of Betws-y-Coed in the beautiful Snowdonia National Park in North Wales. The church is open every day. All welcome.

Built in 1873, St Mary's Church was designed by Paley & Austin of Lancaster, and replaced the 14thC church of St Michael. Our congregation is drawn from a variety of backgrounds and surrounding towns and villages, and the number of attendees is increased by tourists on holiday. Located right in the centre of Betws-y-Coed, the Gateway to the Snowdonia National Park, St Mary's Church is visited by thousands of people every year. We're open daily from around 9am to around 5pm for visitors wishing to escape the hustle and bustle of the village - whether to pray, for quiet reflection, or simply to admire our beautiful church. Guide leaflets are available in several languages. Our church hall is used for a variety of activities - from weekly antique fairs in the summer and a Parent & Toddler group that meets two mornings a week to being the rehearsal venue for one of the leading Male Voice choirs in North Wales.
