New Build Homes in Colwyn Bay
About Hafan Y Glyn
Hafan Y Glyn is a carefully considered new build development in Colwyn Bay by WPV Homes, set in the well-established and sought-after area of Colwyn Bay in Conwy, North Wales. Offering a limited collection of three and four bedroom detached homes, the development is designed to meet the demands of contemporary living whilst sitting comfortably within its coastal surroundings.
The name ‘Hafan Y Glyn’ reflects the character of the location — a haven in the valley — and this sense of sanctuary is carried through the design and layout of the development. As you enter, you are met with generous open space and a thoughtful mix of traditional yet contemporary architecture that gives the development a welcoming, established feel from day one.
WPV Homes is a local house builder with a strong reputation built on quality and care. Unlike larger volume developers, WPV Homes prioritises craftsmanship, integrity, and personal service over scale. Every home is finished to a high specification, with attention to detail that is evident throughout — from the quality of materials used to the practical layout of each property. This is a developer that builds homes it would be proud to live in.
Hafan Y Glyn will be the latest addition to WPV Homes’ portfolio of exceptional North Wales developments, following the success of Penrhos Heights and Gwel Y Fenai. With only a limited number of plots available, early interest is advised.
Location & Setting
Colwyn Bay is a small but vibrant seaside town on the North Wales coast, offering the best of both worlds — the relaxed pace of coastal living combined with excellent connectivity and a growing range of independent businesses, restaurants, and amenities. The town sits within the county of Conwy and is surrounded by the outstanding natural beauty that makes North Wales one of the most desirable regions in the UK.
The development is ideally positioned for those who want to enjoy the outdoors without sacrificing convenience. The Welsh coastline is approximately a 20-minute walk from the front door, while by car you can be at Rhos-on-Sea, Llandudno, or the historic walled town of Conwy within minutes. The A55 — the main arterial route between Chester and Holyhead — is just four minutes away, making Hafan Y Glyn an excellent choice for commuters travelling across North Wales or into the Northwest of England.
The surrounding area offers an abundance of outdoor activities, from walking in the mountains and along the coast to cycling, water sports, and wildlife watching. Snowdonia National Park is within easy reach, providing world-class landscapes and adventure for those who seek it.
