Debenhams

Debenhams in Llandudno is a huge store that dominates the retail park it sits on. There’s a huge variety of goods on offer.
Ladies clothes, perfumes, makeup, and underwear cover most of the ground floor. Upstairs you have the menswear, homewares, toys, and café. The womens underwear (I have been assured lol!) is of a high standard and reasonably priced. I feel that the bedsheets and kitchenware etc is heavily overpriced and you can probably get a better deal elsewhere. The perfumes are well priced, but at Christmas they really couldn’t compete well against Boots.
It seems for the January sales they have brought in loads of rubbish stock, I don’t believe they are selling the good stuff at 70% off. Either that, or ninja shoppers turned up at the crack of dawn to buy up all the good stuff and leave all the rubbish behind. This is a known sales tactic employed by many companies, so I’m not just pointing the finger at Debenhams. We’ll go there durning ‘normal’ times of year, but avoid the place like the plague in January.
Strangely enough the store in Llandudno feels far more pleasant a place to be in than the brand new one recently opened in nearby Bangor. I think it’s due to it’s regular and far less disorienting layout.

For many years shoppers across North Wales who wanted a proper day out shopping had to head to Chester or beyond. There was a small Debenhams in Bangor and Llandudno had it’s two Marks and Sparks but there wasn’t a great shopping venue.
A couple of years ago Parc Llandudno was opened, a new retail park featuring mainly fashion stores, and Debenhams was the flagship store.
It’s a decent sized place. Downstairs caters for the ladies with clothing, accessories and cosmetics. Go up the elevator and you’ll find mens, kids and homewear. There’s also a pleasant little café at the front looking out over the car park and across to the panoramic views of Asda.
This is a decent addition to Llandudno and means that shoppers no longer need to make the trek to Chester.
