Advertise on the Colwyn Bay Guide
Reach visitors actively planning a trip to Colwyn Bay — paid listings from £120+VAT
Who Reads the Colwyn Bay Guide?
The Colwyn Bay Guide at colwyn.org.uk is read by people actively planning visits to Colwyn Bay and the surrounding North Wales coast. These are visitors in the research and decision-making phase: they are looking for places to stay, restaurants to book, activities to plan and attractions to visit — from the Welsh Mountain Zoo and Victoria Pier to the beach, promenade and Eirias Park. They are not casual browsers — they have a trip to Colwyn Bay in mind and are working out how to make the most of it.
Advertising on the guide puts your business in front of these motivated visitors at exactly the right moment, before they have made their final decisions. A prominent listing in the relevant section of the guide — accommodation, food and drink, activities or attractions — positions your business alongside genuinely useful editorial content and reaches an audience that is already engaged with Colwyn Bay as a destination.
What We Offer
We offer paid business listings on the relevant pages of the Colwyn Bay Guide, with a link to your website, a description of your business, your contact details and, where appropriate, a photograph. Listings are permanent (not time-limited) and are included on the page most relevant to your business. A restaurant listing appears on the restaurants page; a B&B listing appears on the accommodation pages; an activity provider appears on the relevant activities page.
Our standard listing rate is £120+VAT per year. This provides a year of prominent placement on the relevant page, with your business listed alongside our editorial recommendations and visible to every visitor who reads that page during the year. For businesses in the accommodation sector, a listing also includes placement on the where to stay overview page. We also offer enhanced listings with additional photographs and extended descriptions, and featured placements or banner advertising across the site — contact us for details and pricing.
How to Get Listed
To discuss a listing on the Colwyn Bay Guide, email [email protected] or call/WhatsApp 07941 840862. We will respond promptly with details of the available options, current availability on the relevant pages and next steps for getting your business listed. We are happy to answer any questions about the guide, its readership and how a listing would work for your particular business before you commit.
We are particularly interested in hearing from accommodation providers, restaurants and cafes, activity and experience providers, and any business that serves visitors to Colwyn Bay and the surrounding area. If you are not sure whether a listing would be right for your business, feel free to get in touch and we can discuss your situation informally.
Why Advertise With a Specialist Guide?
The Colwyn Bay Guide is a specialist destination guide rather than a general directory. Its audience is specifically people interested in visiting Colwyn Bay, which means that your advertisement reaches a more relevant and targeted readership than a general business directory would provide. Visitors who find the guide through search engines for terms like ‘things to do in Colwyn Bay’ or ‘best restaurants in Colwyn Bay’ are exactly the audience that local tourism businesses need to reach, and a prominent listing on the relevant page of the guide makes your business visible at the moment of decision.
The guide is part of the Croeso.com network, which has been serving visitors to North Wales for many years. Our editorial standards are high and we do not accept listings from businesses whose quality does not meet our standards, which means that being listed on the guide carries an implicit endorsement that a general directory listing does not.
