We may be biased, but we think West Wales is one of the UK’s most rewarding destinations, full of hidden gems, wild beauty, and welcoming local communities. From dramatic coastlines and ancient castles to serene gardens and peaceful walking trails, you’re perfectly placed to discover it all.
The places and attractions below are run by independent local organisations that we personally recommend for their authenticity and charm.
