Nestled along the stunning North Wales coastline, Min y Don stands as a proud testament to nearly two centuries of continuous development and refinement. Built circa 1830, it predates much of the town’s Victorian expansion, originally serving a practical role in housing an underslung water wheel powering a copper ore crushing mill. By the late 1880s, Min y Don had transformed into a luxurious gentleman’s residence, and by the early 20th century, it had become renowned for its high-class boarding service catering to seasonal visitors. Its success led to extensive development during the 1930s, including the addition of two floors and a rear wing—creating the impressive structure we see today. Guests are often surprised by the expansive, light-filled rooms, and the thoughtfully designed, contemporary en-suites that provide a level of comfort rarely matched in heritage properties. Min y Don seamlessly blends both modern luxury and character—raising the standard for 21st-century guest accommodation. Whether visiting for leisure or business, our committment is to providing you with everything you need for a memorable, restorative stay in one of Llandudno’s most iconic residences.

Min y Don—Welsh for “at the edge of the waves”—perfectly reflects its enviable seafront location on Llandudno’s famous North Shore. Just steps from the crescent bay, opposite the historic Victorian Pier, and nestled at the foot of the Great Orme, the guest house is ideally situated for exploring the area’s iconic attractions, including the Great Orme Tramway, Happy Valley Gardens, and the Llandudno Cable Car. It’s the perfect base for walkers, sightseers, and those simply seeking a peaceful coastal escape. With a rich history spanning decades as a guest house, Min y Don has long welcomed visitors to Llandudno. In 2018, current hosts Teresa and Rheinallt brought their passion and experience to the property, drawn by its exceptional views and charm. As seasoned travellers and hospitality professionals, they understand what makes a stay truly memorable: quality, comfort, and a warm, authentic Welsh welcome. Their commitment to providing outstanding service and stylish, well-appointed accommodation has earned them multiple awards and excellent guest reviews. You’ll find beautifully maintained rooms offering modern comforts such as private en-suites with premium toiletries, large Smart TVs, room refrigerators, ultra-fast Wi-Fi, and tea/coffee facilities. Every room is thoughtfully designed to offer a calm and luxurious retreat after a day of discovery. Min y Don spans three floors, accessed via a central staircase (please note: there is no lift). On-site parking is available in limited capacity. The property is adults-only (18+) and unfortunately cannot accommodate pets. At Min y Don, it’s not about formality—it’s about comfort, kindness, and those little touches that go beyond expectation. We look forward to welcoming you.
