2. RNLI Llandudno Lifeboat Station

This recently built Lifeboat Station is situated on the promenade towards the Little Orme and really is impressive. Unfortunately we were unable to gain access in order to see the lifeboat and the equipment properly; we shall have to return on a Sunday. The station has been very tastefully built and looking through the windows, the lifeboat and equipment look impressive. Having lived right by the sea in another area of the country that had a lifeboat, I know and appreciate what a brilliant job the lifeboat crews do to save lives at sea, often at great risk to themselves, so they deserve the best equipment.

4. Great Orme Copper Mine

Reviewed By Robert_Moye - Prague, Czech Republic
Great Orme Mines is the largest known Bronze Age copper mining industrial complex in the world, and affords a glimpse into, for the time, advanced mining, engineering, and metallurgical science organized at a societal level. The story of the discovery, recovery, preservation, and continued excavation and archaeological investigation of this globally significant site is as interesting and remarkable as the prehistory. Although only 200 meters of the 6 kilometers of known prehistoric underground mine passages are available for tour, this provides a glimpse into the physically and mentally demanding environment of this ancient enterprise, and the periods of Victorian Era mining that followed. The museum displays and surface tour of the site are equally fascinating and informing, and the mine personnel, many involved in the original discovery and reclamation, are wonderfully informed sources of further information.

The Great Orme Tramway is currently closed for winter maintenance and will re-open in late March. The Great Orme Tramway is Britain’s only funicular, or cable-hauled, tramway that travels on public roads. Delighting visitors since it opened in 1902. The unique journey begins at Victoria Station, a short distance from Llandudno’s seaside and pier. Climb aboard one of our beautifully restored tramcars and start your ascent through the winding roads of the Great Orme. At the Halfway Station, you can discover the remarkable history of the Victorian engineering and observe the Tramway’s powerful funicular system in action, before changing trams. Continue your journey to the Summit where the views are breath-taking. On a clear day, it’s possible to see as far as the Isle of Man, Blackpool and the Lake District! Well-behaved dogs welcome. The tramcars are open and the Great Orme is 207m (670 feet) high - remember to bring something warm to wear.

Popped in to pass away an hour during a rainy day in Llandudno. Great little place with lots of period items and artwork to help bring the Home Front reality alive. Especially touching was a genuine letter written by an evacuee child to their mother during their separation. Well worth a visit.

Beautiful Gardens on the Great Orme, overseeing Llandudno bay, with great views of the Pier, Promenade, and Little Orme. There are loads of picturesque sightlines within the Gardens that are great for photos, so much so you'll have to keep stopping in your tracks to make sure you capture the moment. The Garden has somewhat of a Alice in Wonderland theme, with wooden sculptures and a band stand being themed off characters from the story. This has been done as a reference to how Alice's real life inspiration, Alice Liddell used to go on holidays to Llandudno as a child. Good for picnics, as unlike the Promenade there aren't any seagulls trying to the steal your food, and there is also a small cafe if you didn't bring along any food. There are plenty of benches spread out across the gardens, if you want to take a rest from walking or you just want to soak in the views. Alternatively, you could also use the lawn to sit down and admire the view or have a look at it's landmarks including the aforementioned band stand, stone circle, and Queen Victoria bust. Nearby is a Cable Car Ride, which for the brave traveller, rewards them with even greater views of the Orme, though it is a bit pricey at £11 per person for a return ticket. Overall the place is a must visit when coming to Llandudno, as it's only a short walk from the promenade, it's views are outstanding, and most importantly it's free.
