Enjoy classic beach days
Our seafront Llandudno hotel is the perfect base for families looking to spend days at the beach; playing, building and splashing. Head to North Shore, Llandudno is Wales’ largest resort and it’s the closest beach to your North Wales accommodation – on the doorstep of our hotel. A lovely sheltered area with a designated bathing zone, making it the perfect spot for family paddling or a relaxing swim.
West Shore in Llandudno is a 5-minute drive away or a 25-minute walk from our seafront hotel. It’s considered quieter than the more popular North Shore, offering a beautiful sandy beach facing Conwy Bay. At low tide it reveals a large stretch of sand and is popular with kite-flyers and kite-surfers. Slightly further away, but still just 15-minutes by car, reach Porth Eirias beach in Colwyn Bay. A welcoming family-friendly man-made beach with golden sands. Or discover Rhos-on-sea at Colwyn Bay. Just 12-minutes away from our Llandudno hotel, 3-mile bay begins at the harbour and leads to a sand and shingle beach.

A picturesque Victorian promenade, our wonderful Llandudno Pier is 700 metres long, ‘stretching out into the Irish Sea, making it Wales’s longest Pier, and the fifth longest in the UK.’

Take on a family challenge, and try a new experience – walk to the summit of Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) but do it in the safe hands of an expert guide with MountainXperience. Join a mixed group or book a private mountain guide and reach the top of Wales’ highest mountain.
