Known as ‘the Queen of Welsh Watering Places', Llandudno is located on the beautiful north coast of Wales, and with its sweeping promenade leading straight onto the clean soft sand, this destination is perfect for couples wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle. This two-mile stretch is bookended by, to the west, the Great Orme headland, and to the east, Little Orme. The former is inhabited by Kashmiri goats - the original pair a gift to the town. The train station occupies a site in the heart of the town, making Llandudno an ideal destination to visit by train.
