Welcome to Llandudno
The Queen of Welsh Resorts
Nestled between the ancient headlands of the Great Orme and Little Orme on the North Wales coast, Llandudno is one of Britain’s finest Victorian seaside resorts. With its sweeping crescent promenade, elegant pier, and stunning mountain backdrop, this is a town that has been welcoming visitors for over 150 years — and the warmth of that welcome has never faded.
Whether you’re planning a weekend break, a family holiday, or a day trip from elsewhere in North Wales, Llandudno offers a rare combination of natural beauty, seaside charm, and genuine Welsh hospitality.
