The Somerset Hotel in Llandudno
The hotel underwent a substantial refurbishment programme in 2016 and now boasts a new central reception, seafront coffee
shop, enlarged ballroom that features a well-stocked bar and updated seafront gardens - perfect for a relaxing evening drink.
2017 saw the addition of 10 new bedrooms and a new lift.
The hotel offers a number of sea view rooms that have stunning views of the pier, seafront promenade and the Great Orme. The
town centre is just a 10 minute stroll along the flat promenade and with the beach on the doorstep and a variety of visitor
attractions to explore, it's the perfect choice for a seaside break.
Any question do contact us 01480 811020, 07981 727 603, email patking@writeme.com or pop round to see us. If you haven't
been with us before you will be made most welcome.
Looking forward to enabling you to have a great, friendly holiday.

Hollywood or Bust
1 in 8 women are diagnosed with Breast Cancer at some
point in their lives - sad, but true.
Hollywood or Bust
is the
Breast Cancer Support Group for breast cancer patients
attending Hinchingbrooke Hospital and provides much-
needed camaraderie, emotional support and solidarity from
their peers.
It is for people who have breast cancer and is a source of
information with the breast cancer team in attendance and
guest speakers, not to mention other patients’ experience.
Informal and relaxed, members enjoy the social contact it
provides. It is well attended and all are welcome from the
point of diagnosis, throughout treatment and beyond.
Meetings are on the first Wednesday of the month in the
Education Centre at the hospital, at 7 p.m.
There is no
charge to attend.
Events also take place throughout the year which can act as
fund-raisers e.g a ball in October, meals out which are subsi-
dised and the occasional day out which in the past has been
free! Light refreshments are served.
