Alternative Christmas Shopping!!

Don't like the intensity of christmas shopping in a city then Llandudno could be the place to come and shop in a more relaxed way. This was one our Tripadvisor reviews.

Treat yourself to a stay at Lymehurst in winter and get some Christma

s shopping done without the hassle of the city. Llandudno has some large stores, Debenhams, BHS, Topshop, M&S etc as well as its smaller shops and a trip to Conway or other nearby places may just find you that slightly different gift in some of the craft shops. The Conway Christmas Market was on when I was there to add to the atmosphere. If the shopping gets too much you can escape to the shore or up the Orme and feel a million miles away from the bustle of Christmas or just retreat a few minutes walk away from the main shopping centre to the quieter area where Lymehurst is positioned and enjoy the peace and warm welcome. The bedrooms are beautifully furnished and the tasty breakfast sets you up for the day ahead. I have visited Lymehurst on a number of occasions now and can thoroughly recommend it.

Ty Gobaith Fun Run

December 16th

Today was the fun run for Ty Gobaith ( Hope House). It's always good to see people people who are willing to give their time and put in so much effort to raise money for a very worthy cause www.hopehouse.org.uk. As you'll see from the photos the range of runners and walkers covered a whole range of ages and abilities. This year the welsh TV was filming so we'll see if it makes it on to the screen!! 

Reindeer take over thelocal Post Office!

 December 12th

Another hard frost here in Llandudno. Took some cards and a parcel to post and was unexpectedly served by a reindeer........that doesnt happen every day!

First Frost of The Year

December 11th

Today we had our first Frost. It has been a beautiful sunny day but cold enough for the frost to remain in any sunless places. I just realised that it was 5 years ago yesterday that i moved to Lymehurst. Thinking back, from the initial panicing when I couldn't find plumbers or builders to come and do work for me and therefore being unable to open as a B&B, to the gradual building up of the business, it has been one huge learning curve,( or more like a learning vertcal!!!). Lots of ups and downs but on the whole very satisying when guests have had a happy time here and have written super reviews on Tripadvisor. There are now 94 reviews. Not bad for a little B&B that's tucked away in a quiet cul-de -sac in Llandudno

A Bracing Walk before the return of the rain

It was so nice yesterday to have a reprieve from the wet stormy weather. Once the necessary household tasks were finished I headed out for a walk. The forecast was for sunny weather until about 3pm and this time the forcasters were pretty accurate. I got home after a super bracing walk at 2.45 and then it poured down!

Late Knight Shopping in Conwy

  December 9th

On Friday in Conwy they had the opening of the late Knight shopping. Unfortunately I couldn't go as I was waiting for some guests to arrive. Last year it was pretty specatacular with the parade of knights carrying burning torches through the town and people dressed in medieval costumes wandering around adding to the great atmosphere.These photos are the ones I took last year

Still flowering in December

 December 8th

 

We've had rain,wind, hail stones cold snaps warmer spells and still some of the flowers are just about hanging in there. It's crazy to think that my cosmos that I plant infront of the Breakfast Room window, have in previous years been in full bloom throughout the summer but this year the first flowers appeared at the end of October!! It's probably the case that as they've had such a struggle to flower they're determined to stick it out to the bitter end. I wonder what will happen next summer. Surely we are due a proper summer
