View from Llandudno -- I nip out with a backward look (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

opinion

'view' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'from llandudno i nip out with a backward look' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'with a backward look' shows that the letters should be reversed in order (look at the letters backwards).
'noinipo' is hidden in the letters of 'llandudno i nip out'.
'noinipo' written backwards gives 'OPINION'.

(Other definitions for opinion that I've seen before include "Assessment" , "Standpoint" , "A view held as probable - well, that's mine" , "View held without positive proof" , "Belief not founded on proof or certainty" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
