We've got a wedding to go to in Bangor in September and could really do with some advice from any locals/anyone who knows the area. I know Snowdonia reasonably well but never been to Bangor.
We'll be coming from London on the train, probably on the Friday evening, and travelling back Monday lunchtime (to make the most of the journey). We have 2 DC who will be 2.5 yrs old and 12 weeks old. Wedding is Saturday afternoon/evening.
Where to stay - the Travelodge seems the highest rated place on TripAdvisor. Any reason to avoid it or suggestions for an alternative?
Car hire - I can only find these people www.practical.co.uk/locations/england/wales/bangor/ and they don't seem to have any child seats available, although I'll email them to double check. Would it be possible to 'do' the local area at all without a car?
Stuff to do - what would be your suggestions for things to do locally with the DC? If we can hire a car we could head up to Anglesey or down to Snowdonia, maybe do a short walk or get the steam train from Caernarfon but I'm not sure if any of that would be possible without a car. What is Bangor itself like? Are there any beaches nearby? (allowing for Welsh September weather!)
Thanks in advance if anyone is able to answer any of this and apologies for epic length of the post!
