Bodnant Garden

Travel back in time to the Iron Age, as you imagine the hill forts that once stood on this dramatic bluff overlooking Llandudno Bay.

North Wales is probably not the first destination that comes to mind when you think of skiing but Llandudno ski slope offers exactly that, in this charming resort town.

Llandudno Pier is an impressive structure that dominates the coastline of Llandudno, a picturesque town in North Wales. The largest pier in Wales, stretching 2,296 feet into the Irish Sea, is one of the finest, and best preserved, examples of a Victorian pier you will find anywhere in the UK.

The only cable-hauled tramway in Britain, and in fact one of the last remaining in the world, the Great Orme Tramway is one of the most beloved heritage attractions in Wales, carrying in the region of 160,000 passengers every year from Victoria Station in Llandudno to the Summit Station, a distance of around a mile. First opened at the turn of the 20th Century, and preserved in part through funding from the National Lottery and the EU, the tramway operates on a funicular system, whereby each car is attached to the cable that is winched up the hill, the weight of the descending car helping to pull up the one ascending.

Artifacts from pre-history and Rome, historical photographs and a small but interesting art collection crowd into a beautiful Edwardian townhouse.

Gothic sculptures and stained-glass windows adorn the interior, while a Virgin Mary statue watches over visitors entering this friendly parish.
