Bed and Breakfast - The Branstone, Llandudno, Conwy

Llandudno sits nestled between the headlands of the Little Orme and the Great Orme. With the Irish Sea at one side, and the estuary of the river Conwy on the other, you can walk across town from miles of golden sandy beaches, with dunes to explore and the chance to land-yacht, wind surf or even try kite boarding, to pebble beaches, Punch and Judy and yes, even Donkey rides.

Long before the pre-fabs of the 1950s, Llandudno could be described as a purpose built resort. Marshland was drained and developed by Lord Mostyn, a visionary and highly enthusiastic developer and entrepreneur, who began work to create a new town in 1857. Along with promenades, arcades and all good Victorian facilities, he built a new Church and a pier, following the Victorian tradition of including a folly or two whenever possible.

Llandudno now offers a magnificent mix of welcoming traditional pubs and restaurants, as well as eateries from all over Europe, meaning everyone is, quite literally, catered for. If you enjoy live shows, then the North Wales Theatre offers true seaside fare, as well as a broad range of top class music and culture. The Oriel Mostyn art gallery is renowned across Wales as one of the best in Britain, and there are numerous Castles and historic parks and houses all within an easy drive through beautiful countryside.
