Company info

Min y Don is one of the oldest properties in Llandudno (circa 1830), pre-dating most of the Victorian development which took place the 1850's onwards. From humble beginnings housing an underslung water wheel to power a copper ore crushing mill, it has seen continuous development over almost two centuries. By the late 1880's, Min y Don had been developed into a luxurious "gentleman's residence". By the early 1900's, it offered a "high class boarding service" hosting seasonal visitors to the area. Such was its success, the property was altered and extended with two additional floors added during the 1930's together with a rear wing to give us, essentially, what we have today. However, not all is quite as it may seem from the Grade 2 listed and protected Victorian facade. Far from being a pokey Victorian property that's been altered to suit as a hospitality venue, Min y Don offers superbly spacious rooms with luxurious en-suites, setting new bench-marks for 21st Century accommodation. Whether travelling for leisure or business purposes, we seek to offer everything you could possibly need for a fabulous stay

Property info

The name Min y Don translates from Welsh to mean 'at the edge of the waves', perfectly describing the guest house’s location on Llandudno's famous North Shore. Situated a mere pebble's throw from the crescent bay, directly opposite the Victorian Pier entrance and at the foot of the Great Orme with easy access to both the Great Orme Tramway, Happy Valley Gardens and Llandudno Cable Car. A great base from which to enjoy Llandudno's scenery, walks and attractions. Min y Don has operated as a hotel/guest house for many decades. Your hosts Teresa and Rheinallt fell in love with the location and its spectacular views in 2018, sensing a fantastic opportunity to provide excellent quality accommodation with an unrivalled outlook over Llandudno Promenade for the discerning traveller at a reasonable price. As experienced guest house owners and seasoned travellers, both appreciate the value of good quality accommodation, provision of excellent breakfast and, of course, a traditional "Welsh" welcome. Their dedication and application in realising their dream has resulted in numerous awards and outstanding customer reviews They apply exactly the same standards as they would expect to receive - not stuffy - just comfortable, friendly and wherever possible with that little "extra" touch of luxury and thoughtfulness that even the best 5 Star accommodations simply cannot provide. Min y Don offers limited on-site parking, free ultra-high speed Wi-Fi throughout and large screen Smart TVs, room refrigerators, and the usual tea/coffee making facilities in every room. Each room has private en-suites with good quality toiletries. Guest rooms are located over three floors and are accessed through our central stairway. Please note - Min y Don has no lift access to upper floors. We regretfully cannot accept guest pets and we are an "adult only" venue (over 18 yrs of age).

Neighborhood info

We are located in the heart of Llandudno, directly opposite the Victorian Pier entrance attracting up to 6 million visitors each year. Our slightly elevated position affords the perfect view of the Promenade and Llandudno's famous North Shore. Less than 200 meters from the Great Orme Tramway, and a similar distance from the Cable Car and tranquil Happy Valley Botanical Gardens where you can relax and take in the stunning views. The Perfect Location for a relaxed but luxurious stay.
