Join Us on 28th & 29th March for a Special Anniversary Weekend
In March 1956, Anna Davies opened a small village shop in Betws-y-Coed at just 16 years old. In 2026, we are proud to celebrate 70 years of Anna Davies – and we’re marking the occasion with a special in-store anniversary weekend on Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th March.
If you’re looking for things to do in Betws-y-Coed this March, we’d love for you to join us as we celebrate seven decades of independent retail in the heart of North Wales.
Starting a business at sixteen takes courage. Building one that lasts seven decades takes resilience.
Over the years, Anna Davies has grown from its original beginnings into a well-loved independent retailer in the heart of North Wales, welcoming both locals and visitors exploring Betws-y-Coed and Eryri (Snowdonia).
Through changing fashions, evolving trends and generations of customers, the heart of the business has remained the same – quality products, thoughtful buying, and a strong sense of Welsh identity.
What began as one young woman’s vision has become a shop known for:
- Carefully chosen clothing brands
- Unique Welsh gifts and homeware
- Jewellery and accessories
- Seasonal collections that reflect both heritage and modern style
And while the shop has evolved over time, the original spirit of Anna’s hard work and independence still runs through everything we do today.
A 70th Anniversary Celebration in Betws-y-Coed
Our anniversary weekend will bring together everything that makes Anna Davies what it is today – Welsh roots, heritage, and a carefully curated selection of brands and gifts.
Across the weekend, you can expect:
- A special weekend atmosphere in store
- Thoughtful touches throughout the shop
- Exclusive anniversary elements created especially for 2026
- A warm welcome in our Betws-y-Coed shop
Whether you’ve shopped with us for years or are visiting Betws-y-Coed for the first time, it’s the perfect time to pop in and experience Anna Davies during this milestone year.
A Proud Welsh Business Since 1956
As an independent retailer in Betws-y-Coed for 70 years, Anna Davies has grown alongside the community. From a small village shop to a well-known destination for gifts, clothing and homeware in North Wales, the business has always remained rooted in its Welsh identity.
Celebrating 70 years is about more than a date – it’s about recognising the journey, the customers, and the generations who have supported the shop along the way.
Our March anniversary weekend marks the beginning of a year of celebration throughout 2026.
