Any news on the Pier Pavilion,only joking,the station is taking shape,no news on the Clarence,i should imagine Mostyn Estates are pushing the Tudno Castle hard.

I think we can now add it to the list sadly. The exterior/roof is not in a great condition and will require significant cash spending to restore it to a decent state.

A friend of the Forum tells me that work has started on the Clarence Hotel. Contractors are working inside.

Not sure if this has been picked up and posted elsewhere, but it seems that the ownership of the Tudno Castle has definitely been sorted finally.

Well spotted, Ian!

Mostyn Estates have recently acquired the Leasehold interest in the Tudno Castle Hotel in Llandudno. Together with their existing Freehold ownership, this provides the Estate with full control of the site.

The property was formerly a private hotel operating until approximately 2007, when it was the subject of a mixed use development proposal. It is clearly in a poor state of repair, though occupies a key position at the entrance to the town. Adjacent to it is Parc Llandudno, with outlets of Debenhams, Next, Boots, Monsoon and Laura Ashley.

The Company is currently considering options for the building and site and is hopeful of bringing forward a scheme in the not too distant future.
