This town, known for its lovely promenade and sea views, has been named one of the best seaside places to move to in the UK.
A recent study has revealed that this beautiful coastal town is one of the top spots for people looking for a fresh start by the sea.
The research, carried out by My Baggage, looked at things like house prices, local wages, weather, and other important details to decide which seaside towns are best for moving to.
Llandudno, a much-loved Welsh town in Conwy County on the Creuddyn Peninsula, came fourth in the top ten list. With its pretty promenade and stunning views, it’s easy to see why.
As of the 2021 census, Llandudno has a population of around 19,700 – and it also topped the list for highest average salary at £85,050 a year.
That’s more than double the average salary in the top-ranked town of Margate, which came in at £32,415.
The average house in Llandudno costs around £284,945, and the area enjoys about 1,457 hours of sunshine a year, with 1,114mm of rain.
One of the town’s best features is its long seafront, which includes a 2,295ft-long pier – the longest in Wales. There’s even a pub where you can relax while enjoying views of the beach.
In the town centre, you’ll find plenty of cosy shops, cafes, and restaurants tucked along the streets.
Llandudno is also a great spot for people who love nature and walking, with several nature reserves nearby.
Beneath the town lies a huge network of tunnels linked to the famous Bronze Age Great Orme Mines. You can now buy tickets to explore part of the underground site and learn more about the area’s history.
And out at sea, more than 30 shipwrecks are said to be scattered around Llandudno Bay.

As with anywhere outdoors, kindly keep these areas pristine and wild by taking all trash with you. The amount of complaints we have seen since the pandemic is crazy. It's really not that hard to take your rubbish with you!
Litter tends to spread, so if you see any and are able to pick it up and dispose of it outside the hidden gem, it will help keep the area tidy.
