“Enjoyed our stay in the apartment.”

It was clean and comfortable with all the facilities you would need for a good stay .We had a problem with the smoke alarm but it was sorted quickly and gave us the opportunity to have a chat with lovely owners Colin and Mitchell. We did hear some noise from the apartment above, but nothing more than was to be expected and certainly not disturbing as some reviews suggest.

Lovely holiday home and lovely couple, the only downside was couldn’t use oven as dials had no numbers or heat numbers The parking was awkward as our car is low at front and couldn’t park where asked as it was a ramp and the car catches the ramp underneath ,which caused a problem with resident upstairs and he couldn’t manoeuvre his car around, Otherwise ideal place and beach nearby Tesco small shop and post office, chippy not far away , and pub nearby next to beach and a cafe as well

“We had a lovely stay a really nice apartment and close to beach and dog walks .”

A bit of noise coming from apartment above but didn't spoil our stay .we will certainly be going back .

Jayne May 2025

“Outside the property could do with a good tidy up and a lot of weeding which would make all the difference!”

Inside the property was lovely and clean with everything we needed for our stay, the beds were clean and very comfortable and we enjoyed our time here very much. The property is in a lovely quiet area and we didn't use the car once parked until we came home...I would not park on site as it was a very tight passage way down to the parking, but it was so easy to park across the road where you could see it from the front window. I would of loved an area rug in the lounge as it felt a little clinical rather than homely . That said I would stay here again, and I would recommend to others.

“It is always lovely to come home to Wales and an added bonus to stay in a comfortable, peaceful property in a perfect location.”

The owners were also very helpful and friendly.

- Johanna, January 2025
Kevin January 2025

“The property is great, other than the fact that there is no insulation between the flats.”

Even if someone is walking above it is loud, a child running about is even louder...not great. Other than this it was a great break and a great property, thanks.

“The flat was clean and tidy everything there we needed, the double bed could have been higher as it posed a few problems for my wife who has mobility issues.”

we enjoyed our stay

David August 2024

“The property was neat, clean and tidy.”

It was well equipped. It was a great base to visit Llandudno from there’s a beach and promenade 2 min walk away. One very minor criticism is I’m used to having a dishwasher and there wasn’t one here. There is parking to the rear of the property however the driveway to it is very narrow. All in all we had a really enjoyable stay and I would certainly use the property again in the future.

- David, August 2024
Richard July 2024

“Shower nice, no grab rail or non slip mat.”

After my third visit, and reading all the instructions I still can not get the oven to cook anything. No markings on the front of the oven.

- Richard, July 2024
Ann June 2024

“Lovely place to stay, owners were very helpful and checked we had everything we needed for our stay.”

Very cosy and comfortable. This isn’t a criticism but a grab rail in the shower may be helpful for some people. This was our second visit and we would love to return again. Thank you for everything.

- Ann, June 2024

“Enjoyed our stay at Besides the Sea.”

Very quiet location with easy flat 20 minutes walk into Llandudno. Well equipped flat with comfy beds. Nice walks along the coast path and seafront Recommended you walk up the path up side of the Orme just past boat lake for fabulous views and nice cafe halfway up Pub 7 minutes away on seafront is good for a meal and drink One stop about 7 minutes away for essentials Thanks for a lovely week

- Steve, May 2024
Antonia April 2024

“The property is perfectly situated for the beautiful dog friendly beach, however the configuration of the flat was very unsettling for our dog.”

There is a interior door in the kitchen which leads to the rest of the house , so when people ( possibly the owners )are coming and going / living the other part of the house our dog ,as I think most dogs would , would get excited / barking telling us someone is coming in the house . Also there is no enclosed lawn as described it is just a small paved yard .. again not great for dogs .

- Antonia, April 2024
John March 2024

“Excellent accomodation and location.”

Very clean. very comfy. Just unfortunately had to leave a day early due to family crisis. But would certainly book again

- John, March 2024
David November 2023

“The only thing I had a problem with was the toilet I am slightly disabled therefore I found it difficult rising from the seat with nothing to hold on to you can get removable handles with suckers which any other person can use if they are in the same predicament as myself.”

Gill November 2023

“November holiday was just great at Beside The Sea - Ar Lan y Mor.”

Lovely fully equipped apartment, very homely with everything you need for a home from home stay, comfy bed, great shower, kitchen is very well equipped, great location for beach and 15 min walk into the town centre, our first holiday with dog, lots of dog friendly cafe's and pubs, will definatley book again.

- Gill, November 2023
Ann October 2023

“Lovely clean holiday let, well equipped kitchen, nice quality bed linen and comfy beds.”

Situated on the outskirts of Llandudno near the beach and a short walk away from the hustle snd bustle of the shops, plenty of places to walk the dog too. The owners messaged to make sure everything was alright and even popped round to introduce themselves and check we had everything we needed. Would love to rebook next year.

- Ann, October 2023
Karin September 2023

“Llocation is great.”

By the sea. Five minutes drive to pier and center. Mattresses and chairs need replacing. Everything could use tlc. otherwise fine. Private parking and great TV.

- Karin, September 2023
Amanda August 2023

Brenda July 2023

“We’ll situated for west Beach, The apartment was ideal every thing in it that we needed, quiet area, would definitely book again.”

- Brenda, July 2023
Wendy July 2023

“Flat was well equipped.”

Clean upon arrival. Comfortable. We didn’t know Llandudno at all so it would have been helpful for us, if the description did say it was a 25 min walk to the centre. This may have made a difference to us booking the flat. Having said that we’re were more than happy that we booked this accommodation . We do think the access instructions should say that entrance is at the rear of the property.

- Wendy, July 2023
Alyn June 2023

“Loved the location.”

We could walk into town and were very close to the beach, a park, a cafe, shops and takeaway very close. Apartment itself was comfortable with ample room and good facilities. Particularly liked the walled garden area as we had a dog. The owner was very attentive and resolved a minor issue very quickly.

- Alyn, June 2023
Richard June 2023

“Only problem was the fact that the cooker instructions had been cleaned form the front of the cooker, which made it hard to use.”

Apart from that brilliant, our third stay.

- Richard, June 2023
Julie June 2023

“Lovely little flat so close to beach and a local shop.”

Only a 15 minute walk to town, we didn't use the car once during our stay. Sofas are really comfortable. Double bed was a little low for us but mattress was good with quality bedding. Well stocked kitchen and great shower. Michelle was welcoming and helpful. minute walk to Deganwy along the coastal path is worth doing.

- Julie, June 2023
John June 2023

“Once again we have had a lovely week's stay at beside the sea, owner very friendly and made us welcome.”

Just a little suggestion, it would be a good idea to have some drying facilities for the wet towels ie clothes airer or washing line, it would save using the tumble dryer thus saving on electricity. Would recommend this holiday let to anyone.

- John, June 2023
Barbara April 2023

“This appartment was perfect.”

In a quiet road and very close to the west shore beach. The facilities were excellent and the owners very helpful. It is dog friendly, providing bowls etc. Cannot fault this accommodation and will be happy to return there.

- Barbara, April 2023
Sarah April 2023

“Great location close to all facilities especially the beach.”

Excellent facilities and very clean and well equipped flat. Would recommend and we will go again. Michelle and Colin were only a phone call away if needed anything.

- Sarah, April 2023
Janet March 2023

“We enjoyed our stay at the apartment.”

Well equipped. On site parking which is a big bonus. Across the road from the beach which Charlie our cockapoo really enjoyed. It's a dog friendly area. Michelle and Colin friendly hosts. We'll be back. Thanks.

- Janet, March 2023
Gillian February 2023

“Lovely apartment to stay in, very well equipped.”

Really comfortable and cosy. Near the beach so ideal if you have a dog or like to walk but not far from the centre of Llandudno if you want cafes and shops. Owner was very helpful with a request from me . Highly recommended.

- Gillian, February 2023
Anne-marie February 2023

“The grandchildren loved their “Holiday Home”.”

We had a lovely time, very close to the beach. The new shower made things much easier for disabled hubby

- Anne-marie, February 2023
Louise February 2023

“Lovely place.”

Well maintained our third stay here and we will be back again. Easy access and hand to explore from. Only one thing the settees are a bit low and soft. Otherwise everything is great.

- Louise, February 2023
Julie October 2022

“Property clean and comfortable especially the reclining sofa.”

Shower had good pressure which is not always the case with over the bath showers. Only downside was that the oven facial had been cleaned so thoroughly that the temperature numbers around the dial were none existent so a lot of guess work was required, but we managed. Property is very well situated for the beach at west shore, basically a street behind the west shore cafe. The town centre is easily walkable and it is all on the flat. Colin was happy to be contacted as and when and was very helpful with prompt responses. Property is value for money.

- Julie, October 2022

- John, September 2022
Robert August 2022

“Third time we have stayed at the property, ideally placed so close to the quieter West Shore.”

Very peaceful area. Clean, spacious, everything you need , with a small outside space nice for having breakfast when the weather is good . Great base for exploring surrounding area. The owners are very helpful and responsive to your needs.

- Robert, August 2022
John August 2022

“This is an ideal property to enjoy Llandudno and the surrounding area.”

It is situated at West Shore which is quiet with lovely beaches. The property is only 100 yards from the sea front. It is clean, comfortable and ideal for a couple with children. Being dog friendly it was perfect for us. The facilities are good and the owner was very pleasant and helpful. I wouldcertainly recommend the property to others. Thank you.

- John, August 2022
Grahame May 2022

“A visitor from Germany and I had a brilliant week in Llandudno at Ar Lan y Mor.”

The property is an a wonderful position in the West Shore area, just a 150 yards or so from the dog-friendly beach. The property is very accurately described, and was perfect for our needs. The owner was extremely helpful, for example: letting us know that we could enter the property earlier than advertised, leaving us some milk in the fridge, making sure that we were online and that we knew how the TV and Netflix functioned, etc. Very clear instructions pack. I had a senior moment and broke a glass - owner was very understanding! We also found the locals very friendly. There is loads to do in the town and in the surrounding area. We would gladly have stayed longer. All in all, a first class experience. Thanks. Grahame

Janet April 2022

“We had a good holiday here.”

But on a negative there was Broken bathroom tiles on the floor masticed over was an eyesore . Immediately outside of back door needed tidying and a good brushing. On a positive note all these issues did not prevent us from having a great holiday. Location was really good. Inside flat was very comfortable and clean. Owners were very friendly and helpful.

- Janet, April 2022
Anne March 2022

Christine March 2022

“First impressions around entrance door on arrival were grubby dirty unswept and unkept.”

Day 2 no water from shower head for 5-10 mins. When it came through it was disgusting hadn't been used or cleaned in months. There was no bottom seal on shower screen, so therefore the floor was flooded. We had to mop up with towels.Rang the owner who came round , said he'd had no problems before with the water situation also agreed that the shower seal was missing and that the bathmat should be replaced as well. We were told he would get things sorted and could we manage with a towel rolled up on the floor to mop up. Thinking this was only short term we agreed neither of us being mobile enough to use the bath as explained to the owner, we were very disappointed th at we never heard or saw anymore from him all week. We were unable to recycle as we would have liked due to 2 boxes and 3 lids missing from the stack, black bin also full.Having had our stay we are hoping future guests find these problems have been resolved.

“Overall a good place to stay, very close to the west beach and walks, parking to the rear of the property is accessible via a driveway that is width restricted.”

The owners guidebook to the property and facilities is detailed although contradictory in places, some minor changes would prove useful.

Gwen September 2021

“Booked again for September and June next year this is my go to place each year.”

I love the flat and it’s position on West Shore. Cleanliness is second to none the settees and the bed are comfortable the dog loves the beach and the small garden. Colin and Michelle are brilliant hosts nothing at all is too much trouble. The only problem I have is that I can’t park on the property as my car is too big but I just park on the road outside. The only thing I would change is the oven as I eat in the flat ( easier with the dog) and I have to guess the oven temperature as the numbers have disappeared with cleaning but that’s my only gripe and I manage. Would I recommend this 100% yes

Robert August 2021

“This is the second time we have stayed at this property.”

It is very comfortable for the three of us, ideal for an elderly relative as all on one level. It is also in a quiet part of town only minutes from the West shore, great for finishing the day with a stroll by the sea and guaranteed parking which is a bonus.

- Robert, August 2021
Neil August 2021

“The owners were very welcoming and helpful.”

We had one question during our stay which they responded to immediately. The house was clean, comfortable and well presented and provided all the facilities we needed. An added bonus was the lockable shed where there was plenty of room to store the bikes. We were a short walk from the beach… ideal and about a 10 to 15 min walk to the centre of town - couldn’t have been better placed. I would certainly be happy to recommend this property to anyone.

Jill May 2021

“A lovely property, with everything you need for a peaceful & relaxing break.”

The West shore beach is a 2 minute walk away and on most evenings we had it virtually to ourselves. For me it's the perfect property in the perfect location.

- Jill, May 2021
Sheila September 2020

“This is the second time we have stayed here and highly recommend it.”

The apartment is close to the beach, comfortable and very well equipped and of dog friendly.

Martin September 2020

“Fabulous holiday home just a two minute walk from a glorious beach.”

West shore is much quieter than the main beach and the town area of Llandudno which suited us perfectly. Social distancing is so easy here. We were lucky to see a couple of amazing sunsets. Everything as described in the details and most importantly immaculately clean which is so important during these surreal times. If you fancy a few days away exploring the the wonderful area of North Wales this holiday home would be a perfect base. Treat yourself you won’t be disappointed!

- Martin, September 2020
Gwen September 2020

“This is my fourth break here I love it.”

It’s clean tidy and a real home from home. I have a little dog who loves meeting his friends on the beach which is so close. You can watch the sunsets from the driveway. Michelle and Colin are fantastic hosts any issue (which I had with the new heating system) and they’re round straight away to fix it. The milk in the fridge and the home made cake and flowers are a lovely and very welcome touch. I’m booked again for two sets of two weeks next year can’t wait. The little walled garden is a real sun trap in the lovely weather that we recently had. Can’t recommend this enough if you book it I’ll guarantee you won’t be disappointed.

- Gwen, September 2020
Robert August 2020

“We enjoyed a really relaxing holiday, the accomodation met all our various needs.”

I needed to find somewhere without stairs to suit my 91 year mother and she was very comfortable moving around the flat. I shared the bunk bed with my 12 year old daughter, the bottom bunk was very comfortable and plenty big enough for an adult of my size 5ft 9. The large HD TV and access to Netflix was a bonus. The garden at the back is detached from the property and is a bit of a sun trap , we were lucky with the weather so it was nice to have a space to eat outside. I have been to Llandudno many times over the years and i have never stopped at a better place, the West shore is my favourite part so being able to stroll to it within minutes was fantastic. It is a very peaceful and quiet area. A good base to explore the surrounding area, easy to get out of Llandudno quickly and guaranteed parking when you get back. If i repeat this excercise with my Mum next year then this will definitely be the first place i would look at.

- Robert, August 2020
Sarah March 2020

“Lovely place to stay in Llandudno.”

A great location and Colin and Michelle were very welcoming. Would definitely go back.

- Sarah, March 2020
Stanley February 2020

“The owners of the property, Colin and Michelle, were both very accommodating and available to answer any queries we had: - We had questions about shops, facilities and churches in the area and both Colin and Michelle provided us with information and directions There was a very comprehensive handbook available at the property for our use including leaflets and maps about surrounding areas.”

Facilities - the kitchen was fully equipped not only with plates, cutlery etc but a good sized fridge / freezer, on arrival Michelle had provided a cake and tea/coffee/sugar and milk. Location of the property was excellent both in terms of getting into town (just a short car drive away) and also a lovely sandy beach just right for walking our dog Ben, this was literally 5 minute walking distance from the property. We would definitely recommend this property as the accommodation was well maintained and very suitable for a holiday with a dog having wooden flooring in living areas and bedrooms which was easy to keep clean and maintain during our stay. The only stumbling block for us would be Skyes Holidays and their cancellation policy - in view of the recent flooding which were exceptional circumstances - we were offered different dates but would have to pay a further administration fee which due to the circumstances you would have hoped. could have been waived.

- Stanley, February 2020

Thank you for your feedback and your lovely comments about this property and the owners. I am sorry that you were not happy with our £30 amendment fee. The owner was kind enough to allow a last minute change in dates under the circumstances and this was agreed as an exception as many companies would not facilitate this when due to a 'Force Majeure'. We believe the fee for this is fair and transparent and goes towards covering costs and potential losses. I can see that you kept your dates in the end and do hope that you still enjoyed your holiday. The Customer Relations team. Property Owner
Martin October 2019

“As previous reviews have mentioned, the hosts were excellent, firstly a bonus to have a text to say the apartment was ready early.”

Michelle came around a bit later to check everything was ok and was responsive to the odd query we had. The apartment was clean and tidy and very well equipped. It was also dog friendly and it is always a bonus to have a washer and a dryer. The wi fi was excellent and the apartment had Netflix and BBCiPlayer etc, which was useful. It was a lovely touch to have a cake on arrival and also to be supplied with tea, coffee and milk etc. The apartment itself is just a short walk from the west beach and approximately 15 mins walk to town. There is a large Asda in town if you want supplies and pubs wise, the Albert and Cottage Loaf were good for food and drink. It's very quiet and makes for a restful break, so much so that we are aiming to return in January !

- Martin, October 2019
Roger October 2019

“Very well equipped cottage, clean nicely situated for beach, and some local shops, (Chinese, fish and chips, paper and a convenience store.”

Mr Barry September 2019

“Very good location parking for our car, apartment was one of the best that we have stayed in.”

it was furnished lovely a lot of thought had gone into it to make our stay comfy and homely. there was even provisiones left in the cupboards including tea coffee sugar and milk in the fridge. there was two welcoming slices of lovely cake for us to eat with our first cup of tea which was a lovely thought. and the bonus of smart television with Netflix which was brilliant on a night after walking around all day. Colin came around to show us how to work the television and to point out where the shops pubs etc that were around us. we found the apartment very clean and very comfortable and the owners very nice. we would definitely stay again.

- Mr Barry, September 2019
Kelly August 2019

“I spent 2 weeks at Ar lan y mor with my 2 teenage children.”

On arrival there was a lovely homemade cake waiting for us and some extra things such as milk, tea bags, sugar etc. Michelle and Colin came round to introduce themselves and check that everything was ok and to answer any questions we had. The apartment was very clean and after our 1st week, michelle came and changed all our bedding, gave it a clean and left us another lovely cake. I have limited disability and this apartment was perfect having handrails in the bathroom. The location was fantastic being just a couple of minutes walk from the beach which is where we spent most of our time. Colin and Michelle were only a phone call away if we needed them. A fantastic holiday and we would definitely recommend staying here to anyone

- Kelly, August 2019
Rosemary June 2019

“A very enjoyable week at this recently refurbished holiday home, very clean, homemade cake slices on our arrival.”

Yes the driveway was a bit tight for our 4 x 4, but on road parking was no problem, Michelle said they are taking the wall down anyway. We were very lucky with the weather a mixture of mainly sunny days, with a lush sea breeze. This location of the flat is heaven for beach loving dogs and people, we absolutely loved it and a lovely coastal walk to Conwy nearby and round to Lladudno with beautiful views. The views from the Cable car were breathtaking. I liked the quietness in comparison to Llandudno North beach. Bus service and land train go backwards and forwards to Llandudno shops, pier, tram, cable car regularly. I also walked about 20 mins. There is a Onestop shop nearby, really handy, also fish and chips. The freezer is a reasonable size. Coffee, tea, milk, jam, marmalade, honey all provided as well as many other things. The bed was very comfortable, shower lovely. Wifi good. Our large Huskymute absolutely loved the enclosed garden, lying on the cool grass and also the enclosed patio. Michelle, Colin and the gardener could not of been more helpful, all lovely friendly people.

- Rosemary, June 2019
Antony June 2019

“The owner was very helpful and attentive.”

The property was the cleanest of its type that we have stayed in. There were some very nice touches including a food treat waiting for us. The property comes with excellent WiFi and a Netflix subscription. However we were not able to stay the entire week due to the weather, which was atrocious for June especially as we had a dog with us and were unable to access many indoor facilities. The only other comment would be the parking arrangements. There is the option of parking half on the pavement at the front of the property, which is on a narrow road, or driving up the side of the property along a long, narrow drive to a fairly capacious hard standing which does offer space to turn your car to drive out frontwards. However the long, narrow drive is, well, narrow. We could just get our 2008 model year Ford CMAX with the mirrors retracted up it but it was very tight. I would suggest anything much wider would struggle. This fact should be made clearer in the listing to avoid inconvenience to guests.

- Antony, June 2019
Sarah May 2019

“One of the best holiday cottages we a have stayed in everything was perfect and the owners very pleasant and welcoming.”

We could not fault anything. We will be back again soon.

“The apartment was clean, comfortable and in a quiet area of Llandudno.”

The family who own it are lovely people and made us feel very welcome. Lots of extras are provided such as tea, coffee, milk, biscuits etc. The family even provided extra games for our grandchildren who stayed with us for the weekend.

- Janet, May 2019
Brian April 2019

“Very good and adequately equipped.”

The big plus is the location very near the coastline.

- Brian, April 2019
David April 2019

“The property had everything we could possibly need and was clean and tidy.”

The property is a stones throw away from the beach and dogs are allowed. The family who run the property are lovely people and will do what they can to make the experience enjoyable. We are staying again next year and looking forward to it.

- David, April 2019
Ann March 2019

“A fantastic apartment, clean ,comfy and everything you could need and more and a lovely welcome from the owner with homemade cake.”

We have stayed in quite a few self-catering places and this is one of the best, lovely quiet location a few minutes from the beach but an easy walk into the centre of Llandudno.We will certainly return.

The apartment was very clean, very comfortable & well equipped. On arrival, we found a cheesecake in the fridge along with milk & the owner called round to see that we were ok & to explain any queries. The location was fantastic too & we will definitely be returning to Beside The Sea.

“Lovely location, Llandudno has beautiful scenery and quite a lot to do.”

We went on tram up to the great Orme, with stunning scenery, visited a bronze mine did some shopping and had a cream tea in conwyn lovely little place not far from Llandudno. The flat we stayed in was lovely clean and comfortable, with all home comforts in abundance. The owners Colin and Michelle made us feel very welcome on arrival, and there was home made cheesecake and milk in fridge, so lovely made a difference. All in all with the weather, the place and the accommodation, we had a brilliant holiday and would definitely come back again.

“The owners gave very warm and personal welcome and showed us how to use gadgets and made recommendations for local area to suit us, personally.”

The best seaside tailor made holiday. The flat is clean, tidy with lots of toys and games and the beach is literally across the road.

“A great apartment for families!”

Really clean, very well equipped and a quiet location within a stones throw of the west shore beach which was beautiful. So much to do for the little ones in Llandudno and thank you for the supply of games in the apartment which kept us all entertained! Thank you for a fabulous holiday.

“We were extremely impressed with our marvellous hosts Colin and Michelle, who were so friendly and as hosts went way beyond the call of duty.”

On arrival we were surprised to find homemade cake in our fridge, not to mention milk, tea, coffee and various cereals to choose from and one of my Sons has got a new appreciation for marmalade as Michelle had left an ever ending supply of marmalade and jam also. As my Son and I both thought how appropriate as he had watched the film "Paddington" in the boat on the way over. The apartment was exactly as described on your website, "beside the Sea",which was so convenient as all we had to do was cross the road, which saved having to take the car. In actual fact the apartment is in an idillic location as all facilities are closeby and you can walk everywhere and lLandudno town itself is only 15 minutes walk and less than 5 minutes in the car. We found a lovely Chinese take-away around the corner, which also does European dishes and there is an Newsagent beside this. Having a Washing Machine and dryer was a Godsend as it saved me a lot of work when I came back home as I have 5 Children and the washing machine is constantly on. Michelle also left us a large supply of towels which I found really helpful especially when going to the beach everyday. Colin and Michelle did regular checks to make sure that everything was okay and asking if they could do anything else or if they had forgotten anything, which of course they had not. I have to say that I have never met two such conscientious hosts before, who both give 100% at their job. The Scenery around lLandudno is absolutely stunning and I have never seen anything like it, especially going around the "Great Orme"'the mountains with the goats and sheep scattered and then looking down into the sea. We actually saw the sun going down last Tuesday at 9.45 pm, as we went onto the "Great Orme" for a second time that day as we were so impressed that we could not stay away. Our 2 Sons, one just 18 and the other almost 15 loved everything about lLandudno and both were very sad leaving the Apartment, as were we and we all cannot wait to return again DV. As a family we cannot thank both Colin and Michelle enough for enabling us to have such a fabulous holiday and thank you to "Sykes Cottages", for choosing the best hosts possible

“What a lovely couple, Colin and Michele went above and beyond, so much thought has gone into their holiday home, their home was comfortable, clean, tidy and welcoming, there was plenty of info, even down to what places serve gluten free food.”

We were left a delicious gf cheesecake on arrival ( we stayed an extra day so got some delicious gf lemon drizzle cake) along with milk jams and marmalade and other supplies. Even dogs get looked after here, one of the items being a cool mat for the pooches. There's a fridge freezer, washing machine and tumbledrier iron and board, comfy double bed, plenty of plugs and long mirrors, theres a good shower in the bathroom, and towels and dressing gowns provided. Theres also a set of bunk beds, with the bottom being a bigger bed than the top, and theres also a sofa bed in the living room, tv with Netflix, everything you could need. There's a lovely little secluded walled garden at the back. We found beside the sea so relaxing and peaceful, I can't believe how quiet it was if it wasn't for the seagulls then there was no noise at all, beautiful holiday , we loved Llandudno there is lots to do and see, plenty of restaurants and pubs, shops in the town, and only about 15 mins steady flat walk from beside the sea. Llandudno beach is a pebble beach, very long lovely walk. At Beside the sea there is a beach at the top of the road, litteraly only a couple of mins away, we never went to the beach so cant say what it was like. Places to visit are, the great orme, we went on the tram, but you can go on the cable cars. Some of the great places we visited were, Port Merion, colwyn, Beaumaris, Betws-y-coed, and for a bit of retail therapy on the way we stopped at Cheshire oaks. Thank you to Colin and Michele for letting us stay in your holiday home, we would definatly stay here again when we come back to Llandudno.

“Fantastic apartment spotlessly clean.”

Comfy bed and pillows too. Only 2 mins to a dog friendly beach which my dog loved. Hosts were very friendly with plenty of little touches not always found with holiday rentals. Breakfast cereals, milk, tea, coffee and biscuits, even a welcome card and cheesecake. Hope to be able to visit again and will definitely recommend this property. 5 star

“We were greeted on arrival by the owners who baked us a Cake.”

The accomadation was imacculately clean . The kitchen was stocked with tea, coffee, sugar , buscuits , cereals and milk. The beds were very comfortable and the large screen Smart TV was excellant. This accomadation is in a good spot as whilst its in a nice quite residential location away from the hustle and bussel of the main Landudno prominade and town its only a 15 min walk into the town. What I really liked was the fact that you could walk to the beach in 5 min and it was easy to get the walks up the Orme as well as a lovely coastal walk into Conway. I would thoroughly recomend this propery to anyone. Thank you.

The neighbors where freindly and the beach was 2 minutes walk away, it was a lovely beach They left us a lovely welcome card,biscuits andcoiple of slices of welsh gluten free cake for my husband, tea, coffee, sugar, Canderel sweetener and a fresh bottle of semi-skimmed milk in the fridge. Also a set of lovely towels each with a bathrobe. Colin and Michelle are freindly and very helpful and we had no problems contacting at anytime. We are definitely going again. Mr and Mrs Findlay

About the location

LLANDUDNO

Conwy 4 miles, Colwyn Bay 6 miles, Snowdonia 20 miles.

Llandudno lies between two headlands, the Great Orme and the Little Orme and it is these headlands, and the town's two waterfronts, that give this tourist resort its special appeal. The town offers two superb beaches - the North Shore, with its wide promenade backed by an imposing crescent of Victorian hotels and the quieter West Shore with miles of sandy shoreline backed by sand dunes and superb views towards Anglesey. For the best views, however, you can reach the summit of the 679ft Great Orme using either the Great Orme Tramway or by taking an exciting cable car ride of over a mile. The town has an excellent selection of shops, pubs, restaurants and cafés, as well as Venue Cymru, which is North Wales' premier theatrical stage for opera, ballet, musicals, comedy and visiting orchestras, boasting a programme that is second to none - all this is just a stone's throw from the promenade. Just 4 miles away is the town of Conwy - a designated World Heritage Site. A true medieval gem, Conwy is dominated by a splendid castle and completely enclosed by its well-preserved town walls. Discover miles of sandy beaches along the North Wales coast and excellent walking and climbing in the Snowdonia National Park just 20 minutes' drive away - there's plenty to see and do!
