Local Insight
Llandudno is Wales's largest resort, uniquely situated between the Great and Little Ormes with two wonderful beaches, the award winning North Shore and the quiet, sand duned West Shore. Llandudno has kept its Victorian and Edwardian elegance and splendour, despite its modern attractions.
The Great Orme Mines Uncovered in 1987 during a scheme to landscape an area of the the Great Orme, the copper mines discovered below the ground represent one of the most astounding archaeological discoveries of recent time. Dating back 4,000 years to the Bronze Age they change our views about the ancient people of Britain and their civilized and structured society 2,000 years before the Roman invasion. Over the past 21 years mining engineers, cavers and archaeologists have been slowly uncovering more tunnels and large areas of the surface landscape to reveal what is now thought to be the largest Prehistoric mine, so far discovered in the World.

The Great Orme Tramway The Great Orme Tramway has been delighting visitors since it opened on July 31st 1902. An engineering marvel of its age, it's still the only cable-hauled tramway still operating on British public roads. At the Halfway Station exhibition, discover the fascinating funicular tramway - then enjoy the spectacular ride to the top. Lovingly restored re-live the experience of travel more than 100 years ago in the original tramcars - each named after a Saint. The whole tramway has been lovingly restored, ready for another century of service. Visit their website

Just home from our weekend break at the county hotel. the place in general was clean and tidy staff welcoming, the food was quite good although service was very slow in the restaurant the major problem was being on the third floor, the room was presentable but very cold many other guests on the same floor was of the same opinion, as for the shower, turn on at least 5 minutes before getting in as it took that long for the water to come warm even though signs warning you of very hot water.

Excellent service and so helpful
As a visually impaired guest I was apprehensive about staying in a hotel that was unfamiliar to me - I did not need to worry!! Dave - the general manager - and his team did everything possible to help me - including allocating me a room with minimum obstacles and ensuring my table in the dining room was in a corner and near a window for extra light. A special thanks to Anna our waitress who was excellent. The standard of the food was also superb I would definitely recommend staying at this hotel!

I have just returned from a 5 day break with a friend at the County Hotel. The food was excellent but I would like to say 'compliments to the chef' as each menu had meals marked GF (Gluten free) after them which made my stay there extra special as I always have problems having to ask what the ingredients are in meals, there was also gluten free bread provided which normally I have to take my own with me. I can't say enough how much of a difference this made meal times for me. Well done!

Well Located - Some Nice Staff
The location of this hotel is its best feature with an unbroken sea view. We upgraded our room and it was well decorated although the bathrooms were small they were clean and functional. Some problems with the hotel water during our stay but the cleanliness of rooms was faultless and efficient. I cannot praise the restaurant staff enough particularly the lovely Anna whose manner and attendance was perfect. Only one grouch, the reception staff need to be given more customer service training.

Cannot Fault it
We had a great stay at this hotel. Staff, food and service were five star and we could not fault any of it. Bedroom was spotless and the dining room waiter, Lucas, really deserves a big thank you. He was so helpful and fast in his service, he is to be commended for it. Mike, Lore and Jason made the break very special indeed. We will be booking again. Thank you one and all.

Enjoyable Break
Our first time with Shearings and certainly won’t be the last. Nice hotel, very clean and pleasant surroundings. Food was excellent and the staff were very pleasant and attentive. Hotel was full, but this did not affect the service. We’re looking forward to our next break.

Wonderful
Just home from a wonderful break at the County Hotel. We had a sea view room, lovely large bathroom, massive bedroom, wonderful food, great service from the restaurant staff and reception staff, all inclusive deal was great, good entertainment and bingo every night. Only a 15 minute walk from the town centre, daily papers supplied. A special mention to Lucas, our waiter, very polite and fast service. The only gripe, the snacks and drinks are quite dear at the hotel, which is a shame. All in all, great deal all round.
