3. Llandudno

Of course no Top 5 List is complete without a mention of our historic and charming town. Who could possibly argue with that while strolling along Llandudno’s elegant promenade past pastel-coloured properties and impeccably authentic seafront architecture just like Victorians did?

Llandudno’s appearance is down to the fact that, unlike most other resorts, it has remained largely unchanged for over a century. There’s a pier (the longest in Wales) and Punch and Judy, donkey rides on the beach and canopied shopping streets just behind the prom.

Put simply, the undisputed ‘Queen’ of the Welsh resorts retains its period dignity.
