Choose Llandudno as your base for those days( reasonable hotels there) and drive to all these places to see them.
All of these places are beautiful
Don't know Llyn Padarn tho.

I like to take the Mrs up The Orme from time to time

A nice run out is Llandudno to Betws-Y-Coed, then on to Bala then keep going and follow signs for Blaenau Ffestiniog and then back to Betws.

Full of pensioners though is Llandudno. Try Betws Y Coed as a base. Much nicer.

Or Criccieth:

Or for something a little special try these:

Stay here, right on the side of the Orme, you can throw stones at the sheep from you bedroom window.


http://www.lighthouse-llandudno.co.uk/

The lamproom is £140 for a couple, and is usually booked 6 months in advance.

Check the Police website for Arrive Alive van locations, it's a reet git. Blue LDV hiding around corners in tempting 30mph zones...

There's one in Sychdyn, two on the coast road and one on anglesey. Don't know about any other fixed sites. Don't go Wrexham way, all a bit queer over there
