THE ESSENTIAL POCKET GUIDE
LLANDUDNO TH E E S S E N TI AL PO C K E T G U ID E THE INSIDE STORY BESIDE THE SEASIDE AS 2016 IS WALES’ ‘YEAR OF ADVENTURE’ WE THOUGHT WE’D START WITH A FEW ADVENTUROUS IDEAS. SO HERE’S A SMALL SELECTION OF THINGS TO DO IN WALES’ LARGEST SEASIDE RESORT. Walk to the top of the Great Orme (Llandudno’s mini mountain) or hop on board Britain’s only cable hauled tramway which will take you right to the summit. Head for the slopes to try skiing, sno-tubing or tobogganing. Cycle around the Marine Drive, the toll road which curves around the Great Orme headland - you might even spot a wild goat on the cliffs above. Delve into our history and heritage, art and culture too.Your adventure could start underground in the Great Orme Mines, the oldest Bronze Age copper mines in the world, or on the Alice Trail to discover the Alice in Wonderland connection to Llandudno. You can enjoy gentle adventures on one of our links golf courses, stretching your legs on the longest pier in Wales. Or tasting local food and drink in one of our cafes, restaurants or pubs. Just remember to leave time for mooching ‘round the shops and a night at the theatre. Enjoy the adventure. 04 12 20 04 CHILD'S PLAY 08 YOUR NEXT BIG ADVENTURE 12 DELVE INTO THE PAST 14 ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT 17 WHAT’S ON IN 2016 20 ATTRACTIONS 22 STREET MAP & INDEX Don't forget! While you’re here, visit Llandudno’s Tourist Information Centre on Mostyn Street.The friendly staff can help you with things like booking tickets and planning itineraries. And, if you haven’t already found somewhere to stay, they can help you choose from our great range of accommodation, too. Just remember, the longer you stay, the more time you’ll have to enjoy Llandudno! WWW.VISITLLANDUDNO.ORG.UK 3 DONKEY RIDES LLANDUDNO BOAT TRIPS ALICE IN WONDERLAND NORTH SHORE & PROMENADE There’s never a dull moment at the North Shore! All the best old-fashioned ways to enjoy our beautiful coast are here. Punch and Judy shows, donkey rides on the sand, ice cream on the pier, live music from the bandstand. Not forgetting falling asleep in your deckchair! Plus, a play area, paddling pool and snacks at the Prom’s east end. LLANDUDNO TOWN BAND Map Ref:D7 Still blowing strong after over 100years.The band perform live from the bandstand on the promenade every Sunday, for Songs of praise, and Monday for a concert of popular music, starting on 29th May and finishing on 29th August - 7:30pm-8:30pm (weather permitting). BUCKETS AND SPADES. SAND BETWEEN YOUR TOES. TRYING TO DECIPHER THE WORDS IN A STICK OF ROCK. THE PROMISE OF ICE CREAM BEFORE BED. WHAT’S NOT TO LOVE ABOUT LLANDUDNO? Our range of attractions is a big hit with families. Take a boat trip around the Great Orme, see the sights from an open top bus and get to know the animals at Bodafon Farm. For a spot of nostalgia, take a ride on the Great Orme Tramway. Or in complete contrast, discover the Alice in Wonderland connection to Llandudno through two exciting town trail apps. 4 WWW.VISITLLANDUDNO.ORG.UK BOAT TRIPS Map Ref:C6 The Jetty, North Shore, Llandudno 07961 561589 One of the best ways to see Llandudno is from a boat, hop aboard Sea-Jay for a water-based sightseeing trip to see the Little Orme and Great Orme; or a longer sea fishing trip on Striker when you can enjoy the breathtaking coastline in the hope of catching your own dinner. BIG SHIP LTD Map Ref:C6 The Jetty, North Shore, Llandudno 01492 877458 Hop aboard one of the speedboats and whiz by the Great and Little Ormes in a blur of spray and salt. Great fun! Open from Easter to the end of September (weather permitting). NORTH SHORE BEACH LLANDUDNO LAND TRAIN Map Ref:C5 North Shore, Llandudno 01492 877458 Few modes of transport raise more smiles, from both passengers and passers-by, than the Llandudno Land Train. The urge to wave to the crowds, as the multi-coloured engine ‘chuffs’ its way between the North and West Shore, is too much to resist. Also 1 hour trips around the Marine Drive. Runs from April to October. PROFESSOR CODMAN’S PUNCH AND JUDY Map Ref:C5 07900 555515 The Codman family has been performing this firm seaside favourite for over 150 years next to the pier on the North Shore Promenade. Daily shows take place at weekends and school holidays (weather permitting) between Easter and September. Performances are at 2pm and 4pm and also at 12 noon during the height of the season and on Bank Holidays. Additional performances for school parties by arrangement. WEST SHORE Llandudno’s quieter shore has play areas for children and adults too. Plus a pond perfect for model boats. Look out across the mouth of the Conwy Estuary to see some of the best views around, and (if your timing’s good) the most spectacular sunsets. WWW.VISITLLANDUDNO.ORG.UK 5 MARINE DRIVE TOURS Map Ref:C5 01492 879133 Get on board a vintage coach for a one hour tour of Marine Drive and enjoy breathtaking views of Anglesey, Snowdonia and out over the Irish Sea. Tour departs daily throughout the year from the pier entrance at 11am, 1pm & 3pm. CITY SIGHTSEEING Map Ref:C5 01492 879133 www.city-sightseeing.com Sightseeing has never been so much fun! Take an open-top bus tour around Llandudno and Conwy. Tours start at North Parade near the pier, with buses hourly from 10.15am (every 30 minutes peak season) 5 March to 30 October. ALICE IN WONDERLAND It seems fitting that a magical story like Alice in Wonderland is closely associated with Llandudno. Its author, Lewis Carroll was inspired by a real Alice, Alice Liddell. The Liddell family first came to Llandudno in 1861 staying at the St Tudno Hotel. They liked the area so much that they had a house built on the West Shore and Alice spent many childhood summers here. The family were friends with Charles Dodgson, better known as Lewis Carroll.
