About Us

Our Story

We took over the Carmen Guest House in October 2021. We lived in North Wales previously and enjoyed spending lots of time in Llandudno when possible, through lockdown. One day we decided that we didn’t really want to go back so we sold up and moved to the Carmen!
We love how the Carmen is so welcoming and comfortable for guests and we thought it would suit us well, being so close to the beach and being able to park nearby. We have also grown to love Craig Y Don as its own community, which is developing all the time, with places for relaxation, gift shopping, eating and drinking within a 5-minute walk.
We are Ali and Dave – Ali is an occupational therapist who works for the NHS part time, alongside her role here and Dave is our main contact, in charge of most areas! If you want to discuss a booking, he is likely to be your man. He has had a career in driving and construction but has always been an excellent cook and is a font of knowledge having many suggestions of places to visit if you are new to Llandudno or are stuck for ideas. He is getting good feedback on his breakfasts so far and he is happy to be settled in his dream job!

Our Values

We really want to make people’s stay relaxing and comfortable and we will try our best to achieve this. Everyone has a different reason for staying, and we want to make your stay goes as smoothly as possible. Since taking over, we have responded to feedback and now have a small fridge with fresh milk for people to take to their rooms when having a drink, and we are moving away from plastic bottles and containers as much as we can for water, sauces, tea and coffee, as we are trying to minimise our impact on the environment. 

There are still ways to improve but we think we have made good progress so far. We will try our best to accommodate any dietary requests you may have, so please talk to us about your needs.
We would really appreciate you booking directly with us. With rising costs generally, along with many other businesses in the sector, we are trying to become more independent and so have developed a new website and brand. Please contact us directly by email or phone – we will be able to give you the best terms and pricing. Being a small establishment, we will try our best to accommodate you even if it may not look like we can on booking sites.

We work closely together to try and provide the best service and value for money that we can. Dave generally deals with bookings and day to day operations, alongside cooking his amazing Welsh Breakfast, and Ali mucks in wherever needed as well as doing the accounts and business development side of things.
