Abbey Lodge

About this property

Nestled in the heart of Llandudno, a bustling coastal resort in North Wales, is Abbey Lodge, a Grade II-listed, double-fronted cottage. Just a few paces away from a hub of activity and well-positioned near a selection of shops, eateries, pubs, attractions, and the beach, Abbey Lodge offers an elegant yet historic dwelling, complete with an enclosed garden with contemporary living spaces and en-suite bedrooms, making it a wonderful base for a large group break. Ten guests are invited to explore North Wales. Parking up to the rear, you will be welcomed by three off-road parking spaces before heading indoors to reach the Victorian-style hallway. Select between two well-appointed sitting rooms when it's time to relax, sinking into the Chesterfield sofas found in each while the first houses a woodburning stove and the second a lovely gas fire. The kitchen/garden room is fully equipped with a range-style electric oven with a 5-burner gas hob, a wine chiller, and a dishwasher to ease your self-catering stay, where you can prepare delicious meals to be enjoyed in the formal dining room. Have an enjoyable soak in the hot tub, and then If the weather allows, be sure to set the patio table, light the gas grill, and bask in the Welsh sunshine. Slope off to sleep in one of five individually designed bedrooms, selecting between three king-size and two twin rooms, four benefiting from stylish en-suites, and one with a private bathroom. Awaken to a fresh coffee in the garden before kickstarting your itinerary in the town, with the pier a short stroll away, enveloped by fish and chip shops, seafront cafes, traditional pubs, and popular eateries, all worth visiting before travelling up to the Great Orme Summit Complex upon the cable car, watching a show at Venue Cymru, or simply enjoying the scenes at West Shore Beach. With Colwyn Bay reachable by car, spend the day visiting the Welsh Mountain Zoo, hiking through Bryn Euryn Nature Reserve, or heading to the promenade near Colwyn Bay Beach. Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park is nearby and a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. Take in the peaks, waterfalls, hiking trails, and stunning cliff-top views across the region before returning home for sundowners. Escape to Llandudno at Abbey Lodge.

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!
