North Coast Attractions

Deganwy is a lovely little village in a prime location: just nestled in between the coastal resort town of Llandudno and the historic walled town of Conwy. Sitting on the banks of the Conwy River, it is a fantastic place to visit for a day – explore the village at your leisure, while enjoying the incredible views of the sea, of the estuary and of Conwy Castle.

Set in fifty acres of beautiful parkland, Eirais Park in Colwyn Bay is Conwy’s premier leisure facility. You can keep the kids active on a rainy day with the range of activities on offer here.

One of the most impressive sites of its kind in the world, the mines found within the Great Orme in Llandudno date all the way back to the Bronze Age, making them a whopping 4000 years old.

The Great Orme in Llandudno is a famous attraction in its own right – there’s the Bronze Age caves, the nature reserve and, of course, the old tramway and its museum. Everyone knows about the tramway, but less well-known are the aerial cable cars. They are no less spectacular, so if you’re in Llandudno, it’s well worth hitching a ride on one of them.

Constructed in 1902, it is the only cable-operated street tramway left in all of Great Britain, and one of only a few remaining in operation around the globe. This means it is a truly unique experience!

Gwrych Castle was built in the early 1800s and belonged to the Bamford Hesketh family until the mid 1900s. After the family left, the castle was used for a number of different purposes until it was closed down in the 1980s. After several attempts to resurrect the castle it was purchased in 2018 by the Gwyrch Castle Preservation Trust who hope to build a sustainable future for the castle.

Are you looking for a day out with a bit of a difference? Then look no further – the Harlequin Puppet Theatre in Colwyn Bay is about as different as they come, seeing as it is the only purpose-built puppet theatre in all of the British Isles!

Henllys Golf Club offers up some of that classic parkland experience that we all love. And it is seemingly not too difficult a game, either - although the par score for the course is 71, the Standard Scratch Score has been measured just that little bit lower at 69, meaning that you’ll be able to relax a little and really enjoy your time, whilst still managing to keep your scorecard looking nice and tidy!
