We spent our escape in Llandudno and had a great meal at Osbourne House on the parade. It was a fantastic setting, with well cooked food.
The hotel was utterly fantastic and we discovered the most amazing restaurant set in an old inn – Ty Gwyn Restaurant. It serves mouthwateringly good food and service was excellent.
The Seahorse, which is just down the road from Escape B&B on Church Walks, is well worth a visit. The staff were extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The fish was extremely fresh (apparently because the owner is regularly found to be out on his fishing boat tracking down the dish of the day). The non-fish dishes were also excellent, and the wine list was top-notch. Thoroughly enjoyable! On top of all this, we were pleasantly surprised when the bill came...
Whilst staying at Escape in Llandudno in April I ventured out for an evening meal. As a 'lonely' female it is often difficult to find somewhere enjoyable and comfortable to be in without feeling like 'Billy No-mates'. However all is not lost in Llandudno as a trip to Osborne's proved for me. It is a big Victorian-built house, now a hotel, on the promenade, which is really quite lovely – both the hotel and the Prom. There is a restaurant and lounge, but I opted to sit in the bar area at a long, high marble table designed to seat about 10–12 people. There was another couple on the other end and as I was very visible to the excellent staff, the waitress in particular, I felt quite at home and 'looked after'. The surroundings are lovely and the food was good – not 'wow quality' but perfectly acceptable for a quick evening meal when away on business. Nice touches like some warm ciabatta and sun-dried tomato oil for dipping, whilst waiting. Service was attentive and quick and just what was needed. Definitely to be recommended.
