Would you recommend Rhyl in June?

[justmummy]

We're thinking of taking dd & ds to north wales in june. Interested to know what other peoples experiences of this area are.

Stomach is growling now in thought of those fish and chips. We spend 6 weeks ther every year and I put on about a stone every time!!

I always feel really sad when i realise most people go there for the walking...I go there for the ice cream!!!!

the fish is gorgeous from there though!we used to beat the queues!i worked at the garage in criccieth (londis) and we used to ring up and order food then boss would go pick it up!!!

next time you come,try the chippy in tremadog,thats even nicer than castle chippy here (and they open all year round!)

Really, is that by the spar????

yes,its really nice from there.they do better kids meals there aswell.they get more

Fab, will be going in March...must say they take some beating. Thanks for the tip!

your welcome!dont know if castle chippy will be open then.probably will be,ready for easter.do you come here alot?if you do you've probably been in my mums shop on the high street (there arent that many here!!)

Which shop?
Been coming every year since I was 2... so 30 years!!!!!

it used to be called annabelles,then my mum took it over and called it house of stephanie (not after me!but thats a long story!)she left ther in april last year.she sold porcelain dolls and other gifts,its on the opposite side to the post office

Ermmm, is it by that nice gifty shop that is 3 stories high? by the lighting shop?

i love that shop!!you know where the george hotel is?its just passed there next door but one to the carpet shop.she had agreen and white stripey canopy outside.

In my opinion, there are far nicer bits of Wales (apologies to anyone living in Rhyll)

O yes I know the one. I always spend money in that 3 storey one, on completely useless things I don't need. Oh and ditto for the lemon tub in Porthmadog!!!

ive got loads of ornaments from there,and candles,i love the candles from there!i love going in there at xmas,you can get some really unusual pressies!

Should rename this thread Criccieth appreciation society me thinks!!

you know the old medical hall across the road from nice ornament shop?they no longer do toys etc,its bargain booze now

ah, classy!
Had a gorgeous meal at Granvilles restaurant last year...hope that is still ther...

still there.have you tried poachers though?well,you'd just want to marry martin the chef!!!!

Wheres that?

near spar.just next to the butchers.the food is to die for!he does the best mash potatoe,and he does minty carrots!and his puds!!!!oh,and for starters you have to try cheese and chili melters!yum yum!!!you need a crane though to get you out when you've eaten there!if you like steak,have that.his chicken dishes are great aswell.never had the fish though,but am sure thats equally as yum!

justmummy, don't know if you wanted the northwest or were after the seaside. I have a holiday home in Nantwich, Cheshire that I rent out if that's any help. I can't afford to advertise on Mumsnet (its £50) but you can get in touch via Mumsnet if you're interested.
