Beyond the front door lies the charm of Llandudno, often described as the “Queen of the Welsh Resorts.” This elegant Victorian town is famous for its sweeping crescent bay, lined with pastel-coloured hotels, and its bustling promenade that leads to the longest pier in Wales. Olveston House is just a mere stroll to both of Llandudnos beaches and within one minute of the town centre with its shops, restaurants and cafes. A stroll along the pier reveals traditional amusements, cafés, and panoramic views over the Irish Sea. Adventure awaits on the Great Orme, the dramatic limestone headland that frames the town. Ride the historic tramway or cable car for stunning vistas, or wander the footpaths to spot wild goats, seabirds, and breathtaking coastal scenery. At the other end of the promenade, the Little Orme offers equally rewarding walks with a quieter feel.
Llandudno is also perfectly placed for exploring further afield. Just a short drive brings you to Conwy with its medieval castle, or into Snowdonia National Park, where mountains, lakes, and forests offer endless opportunities for adventure. Whether you’re drawn to the sea air, the dramatic landscapes, or simply want a home where friends and family can relax together, Olveston provides the perfect base for a truly memorable North Wales getaway.

We all had an amazing time in Olveston. The house was beautiful and fitted our large family requirements perfectly. The location for all amenities was excellent. We would definitely recommend it for a family holiday.

Lovely house in great location. Close to shops and promenade but far enough away to be quiet and peaceful. Beautiful back garden, perfect in the heat.

Nice big house with a garden. Front yard is gated, parking for one vehicle. The TV in the front room did not work. Some of the locks needed fixing. Fully equipped kitchen. Some of the upstairs windows were painted shut. We were told we would receive the key code on the morning of our arrival but it wasn’t sent. We contacted the number and the woman was rude and hung up the phone. Cottages.com did send an apology from her and sent the code. Great location. All in all a good place to stay, just needs a little TLC.
