Bryn Derwen, Abbey Road, Llandudno, Conwy

Bryn Derwen is located in the leafy tree lined Abbey Road under the famous Great Orme in the North Wales seaside town of Llandudno. The town offers 2 beautiful beaches and is famous for its architecture, pastel coloured seafront guest houses, Grade II listed pier, Great and Little Ormes and is within easy reach of Snowdonia National Park. Llandudno is served by junction 19 and 20 of the A55 North Wales Expressway and via the A470 with Llandudno Junction serving the town.

Bryn Derwen, a unique Victorian Guesthouse, is located on a quiet leafy tree lined avenue ideally situated on level ground at the foot of the Great Orme. The substantial, four storey detached property was originally built as a holiday home for a wealthy Victorian family in 1878 and sympathetically converted to retain all of the original character such as tiled floors and fine stained-glass windows in addition to décor and furnishings which highlight the historic charm of the property, which is most apparent in the property’s lounges and dining rooms. Bryn Derwen benefits from a choice individually styled letting rooms which can be accessed via an ornate pitch pine staircase and also offers private owners accommodation and beautifully presented front and rear gardens.
