The seaside town that people ‘can’t seem to stop coming back to’

A seaside town in North Wales, Llandudno is best-known by tourists for its Pier, vast shoreline, and rich Victorian history.

The town is well loved by people from all over Merseyside with many choosing it as the perfect place for a staycation or a family day out. At the heart of the Pier’s attractions is ‘Codman’s Punch and Judy’ which began in 1860 by Richard Codman, a traveling showman who was stranded in Llandudno after his horse died.

Codman gathered driftwood from the beach and handcrafted the Punch and Judy puppets used today. Five generations later, his great, great, great grandson Jason Codman Millband has been running the family business since taking over from his father in 2011.
