A Victorian seafront guest house with bay views in Llandudno

Occupying a spectacular position on Llandudno’s promenade at Craig-y-Don Parade, this elegant Victorian guest house looks straight out over the magnificent sweep of Llandudno bay. With beautifully appointed rooms — many overlooking the sea — and a breakfast room facing the water, it is a superb base for enjoying the pier, the promenade and everything this grand Victorian resort has to offer. Guests rate it highly, and the sea views are the undoubted star.

Rooms with the view

There is a choice of rooms, from standard and superior doubles to king rooms and king rooms with a sea view. The sea-view rooms are a real treat, with thoughtful touches like cosy throws and binoculars or a telescope for taking in the bay, the boats and the headlands. The whole house has the elegant feel of its Victorian heritage, comfortably brought up to date.

Breakfast over the sea

Breakfast is served in a room overlooking the water, with both continental and full English/Irish options — a lovely way to start the day before heading out along the promenade. Free wireless broadband runs throughout the property.

Easy seafront parking

There is free, unrestricted on-street parking right on the promenade outside, with additional parking on the inland streets nearby — a genuine bonus in a busy resort. Please note it is a non-smoking, no-pets house.

Exploring Llandudno and the coast

Llandudno’s great curving bay sweeps between the Great Orme and the Little Orme, and this guest house sits right on the promenade overlooking it, with the North Shore beach just 150 feet away. The pier — the longest in Wales — is a little over a mile along the front, and the town centre an easy fifteen-minute promenade stroll. Above it all rises the Great Orme, with its tramway, cable car, ancient copper mines and summit views, while the walled town of Conwy and the mountains of Snowdonia are within easy reach for a day out.
