Haulfre Gardens

Llandudno, Wales, United Kingdom

---

Haulfre Gardens is a small, sheltered public park and garden set on the steep slopes of the Great Orme above the North Wales seaside town of Llandudno, known for its sheltered climate and fine sea views across the bay.

The gardens were created in the 19th century as a tranquil promenade linking the North Shore and West Shore beaches, with winding paths, retaining walls, and a mix of Mediterranean‑style palms and evergreens that give it a mild, slightly exotic feel even in cooler months.

Visitors often stop here for a rest during walks between the two beaches, enjoying the floral borders, memorial benches, and the small tea room café tucked into a sheltered corner. Now open seasonally, the gardens are appreciated both as a restful green spot with panoramic views and as a quiet chapter in Llandudno’s long history as a Victorian seaside resort.
