Llanbedr-y-Cennin is a small village in Conwy county borough, Wales, in the community of Caerhun.

It lies in the foothills on the western side of the Conwy valley, in Wales. The river Conwy runs through the valley, running into the sea to the north, at the town of Conwy, which is about five miles north of the village. The village lies on the eastern edge of the Snowdonia National Park. Near the village lies the Iron Age fort of Pen y Gaer.

The village itself has no bus service, but buses can be accessed at nearby Tal-y-Bont.

In recent years the village has become popular with ornithologists as one of the best places in Wales to observe rare hawfinches. They feed adjacent to the churchyard, attracting many bird watchers in early spring.[1][2]
