Farming communities are the very heartland of Wales, where old traditions live on and Welsh is still spoken in many homes. From the gentle greenery of mid Wales to the distinctive landscapes of the National Parks, the Welsh countryside brings a choice of scenery – and outdoor activities – right to the farmhouse door. The Snowdonia National Park, with its peaks, waterfalls and clear mountain streams takes its name from Mount Snowdon, whose 3000ft summit is scaled by a breathtaking railway. Other highlights of the park include picture-postcard Betws-y-Coed, Blaenau Ffestiniog – home of another scenic railway – and Harlech with its mighty castle, just one of 400 in Wales! Coastal attractions here in North Wales range from enchanting Portmeirion, a private village of architectural follies created by Clough Williams Ellis to Llandudno, complete with donkeys on the beach or the mystic Isle of Anglesey, beckoning from across the Menai Bridge. There’s more magic in the coastline of Pembrokeshire’s National Park, with its superb beaches and cliffs, coastal walks and tiny islands like Caldey, with its monastery, or Skomer – alive with seals, puffins and other seabirds. Popular towns here include picturesque Fishguard, walled Tenby and St David’s, whose 12th-century cathedral lies concealed in a hollow to hide it from predatory eyes. To the east, the Brecon Beacons National Park brings yet more variety: its bare escarpments and mining valleys provide memorable views, and there are attractive little towns like nearby Hayon-Wye, a world-famous centre for second-hand books. Just follow the valleys for a day out in Cardiff’s superb castle, museums and shops or maritime Swansea, where an excellent museum tells the story of Wales and the sea. Right on Swansea’s doorstep is the Gower Peninsular – a charmed corner of beaches, cliffs and smugglers coves beloved of Dylan Thomas, whose former home is open to the public along the coast at Laugharne. ach, e b n e hav re Broad mbrokeshi Pe View fr om Cast ell in Denbig Dinas Bran hshire y, en ba W th Por nglesey A 1 Conwy, north Wales 1 Bed & Breakfast (B&B) 1 B&B/S-C 1 Self-Catering (S-C) Key B M A565 D l ub in as gl ou -D (S u l y) On er mm Formby A5209 A5147 Wig A577 4 3 M58 26 5 A570 1 V 27 Standish Ormskirk pool 25 7 Kirkby 24 A58 6 A59 St Helens 23 5 MERSEYSIDE 4 Bootle 3 Wallasey LIVERPOOL 2 Crosby V The Skerries Amlwch V Anglesey olyhead Dublin - H A5025 A5 A4080 A55 Holy Island (Ynys Gybi) Snow donia Deganwy Penmaenmawr A5025 Conwy Beaumaris Menai Bridge Llanfairfechan A55 West Kirby Prestatyn Rhyl Colwyn A525 Bay A55 Abergele Rhuddlan Rhoson-Sea Llandudno 3 A548 Bangor A548 4 A525 St Asaph A544 Bethesda A4244 Caernarfon A541 15 A5119 Betws-y-coed A498 13 A5 A4085 P L le yn en in s a ul A487 A498 21 16 Porthmadog 19 11 Pwllheli A542 A41 A Whitchurch A525 A539 A495 A528 Bala A5 Ellesmere A495 A A528 A499 GWYNEDD Wem Oswestry A494 A470 A5 A470 Dolgellau Barmouth A493 30 24 A458 A490 A483 22 A487 Aberdyfi A487 34 A487 33 Ro n a Lampeter -P b em A478 48 A487 eD k oc 46 St David's 27 56 41 A487 V A40 43 Narberth A4076 39 Milford Haven A477 A40 A4075 45 A476 Pembroke A4139 A49 A483 A474 32 A40 A4069 A470 23 A476 48 Llanelli Burry Port Gorseinon Gowerton Caldey Island un Mo k t Bishopston SWANSEA 59 44 43 A483 A4118 Port Eynon V CORK RINGASKIDDY Neath 42 A466 Mountains 7 A49 A470 A465 A465 Hirwaun 64 65 A4136 61 MONMOUTHSHIRE Coleford A4042 Rhymney A4046 62 A4043 New Tredegar A466 Aberdare TYDFIL A469 Mountain Treherbert Ash Treorchy A4233 Bargoed Oakdale RHONDDA Treharris A4107 Tonypandy CYNON TAFF A40 Blaenavon BLAENAU GWENT MERTHYR Penywaun Monmouth Abergavenny Brynmawr A465 Merthyr Tredegar Ebbw Tydfil Vale A472 Crumlin Abercarn Lydn A449 A472 TORFAEN A467 A40 A4137 63 Beacons Gwaun-CaeGurwen Ystradgynlais Ystalyfera Swansea A A465 The Black A40 Brecon A4067 ain Pontardawe Pontarddulais NEATH M4 PORT TALBOT 47 46 45 Glyncorrwg SWANSEA A4103 A438 Brecon A479 A4109 49 Kidwelly 52 A417 A4110 A49 A4059 A478 Tenby 54 Llandovery ac A483 A48 A484 A477 49 HEREFORDSHIRE HayonWye A4215 A483 Ammanford Pontyberem A44 Brom A470 A4069 St Clears A477 A4066 A4111 A4112 A480 Hereford Llandeilo A48 50 Neyland 57 CARMARTHENSHIRE A40 A40 Haverfordwest 42 A485 51 55 A44 Kington Builth Wells A483 A4112 Leominster A481 A483 25 53 A40 PEMBROKESHIRE 40 Skokholm Island A484 Carmarthen Ramsey Island Skomer Island A485 A478 A40 Llandrindod Wells A44 Bl rok 38 A487 Newcastle Emlyn 37 44 Fishguard 47 A486 A484 A49 Presteigne A438 A482 C a m e lar A475 b ss Cardigan A487 A4110 26 28 A 8 A4113 A488 i A487 A49 Ludlow Knighton A44 Tregaron 36 A488 A483 r V A489 A4113 CEREDIGION A485 35 Bishop's Castle A470 A486 hg ua rd A489 Rhayader M A485 F is Montgomery Newtown A489 P OW Y S A470 A482 B Church Stretton Llangurig A4120 re - A483 Llanidloes A44 Aberystwyth Aberaeron New Quay SHROPSHIR A490 A470 8 9 A458 A49 Machynlleth o u n t a i n s stle, a C n Ragla uthshire o Monm A5 A488 31 A489 A493 Shrewsbury A458 Welshpool A458 A493 A5112 A495 A470 Tywyn A53 A528 29 Mallwyd s la A49 A496 (Ynys Enlli) V Ros 9 A483 Bardsey Island Nan A49 A525 A483 Snowdonia National Park Abersoch A534 WREXHAM Ruabon Llangollen A494 Tarporley Gresford A534 Wrexham A5 A4212 10 A496 Criccieth A497 A Rhosllanerchrugog DENBIGHSHIRE CHESH A41 A525 A494 Blaenau Ffestiniog Ffestiniog A4085 A49 A54 A51 A483 A5104 A499 12 A55 Llay 7 5 A F 10 14 Chester Haywarden 8 A5104 20 A470 12 M56 Helsby 9 10 Buckley FLINTSHIRE Ruthin A543 8 A494 A55 Mold CONWY 18 A4086 6 7 Connah's Quay A550 Queensferry A541 6 Llanrwst A5 Llanberis 5 11 Runcorn12 11/15 Northrop A548 A56 HALTON LIVERPOOL Ellesmere Port Holywell Denbigh 14 17 Halewood 4 9 8 Warringt WARR M53 A41 A5151 Flint 7 6/1 A562 Bebington A540 A470 A4080 A561 3 Heswall A55 Prescot 5 2 Birkenhead 1 ISLE OF ANGLESEY Llangefni 1 Hoylake (Ynys Môn) A5025 2 Holyhead CHERBOURG ROSCOFF (Summer Only) Ch A570 A565 Liver Dublin - 8 M6 A581 A59 Southport Pontypool Cwmbran A467 Chepstow Crosskeys Caerleon A48 M48 2 A4048 Pontycymer 60 2625A25 Bedwas 24 40 Caldicot 1 A4063 BRIDGEND Pontypridd 23A 23 A403 Rogerstone 27 A4093 39 Newport M4 Betws 21 TOLL 22 Beddau Caerphilly 28 38 NEWPORT A48 Llanharan 29 M4 30 1 36 Pyle Llantrisant M49 32 37 17 A3 35 Pencoed 34 CARDIFF 33 Coity Avonmouth 18A Bridgend A4222 Radyr 18 Porthcawl 58 BRISTOL Portishead A4232 19 Cowbridge A48 A369 A4 Dinas 3 Powys Nailsea VALE OF Clevedon 20 Penarth GLAMORGAN A4226 Port Talbot 41 Maesteg A4061 A470 CAERPHILLY CARDIFF 6 CARDIFF Llantwit Major NORTH SOMERSET Yatton A370 Barry Congresbury 21 Westonsuper-Mare A371 A38 N.

There’s a chance to polish up on your tongue-twisting double ‘ll’s and ‘ch’s, with the largely Welsh-speaking population to hand. After all that, grab some fresh-as-they-come seafood and a pint of ‘cwrw’and you’ll be ready to relax island-style. Champion, as the islanders Angle might say. se This Northern gateway to Wales is the perfect way to introduce visitors to the country. There are four coastal resorts and awardwinning beaches of Llandudno, Colwyn Bay, Rhyl or Prestatyn. This area of North Wales certainly has some surprises up its sleeve: while Llangollen takes a surreal turn in the summer when traditionally-dressed groups from around the world visit the International Music Festival.
