The Smallest House In Great Britain

Tucked beneath the town walls of Conwy on the banks of the River Conwy, the Smallest House in Great Britain is a fascinating slice of urban history. At just 6ft wide and 10ft tall, its compact facade hides a vividly preserved, narrow interior that captures imaginations and curiosity alike.

Open to visitors from April to October.

Once occupied by a fisherman until 1900, the tiny home has been carefully restored and maintained as a quirky heritage site. Stepping inside feels like walking into a time capsule -complete with period furnishings and impossibly snug living space. It's been featured in travel lists and postcards around the world as a symbol of both small-scale living and local lore.

Located in the heart of Conwy’s historic town centre, the house sits directly beside the original fishing quay and under the castle drop. Visiting is quick but memorable - a fun stop for families, photographers, or anyone with a taste for the unusual. Open seasonally, it’s best combined with a stroll around Conwy’s streets, town walls, and waterfront.
