Where can I go in Wales?

[NeverYouMind123]

Want to escape and clear my head for a few days. Looking for somewhere I can walk but not too isolated as I'll be on my own and want to feel safe etc. Some greenery and waterfalls maybe. A few shops and cafes to potter around in would be nice?

Go to Gower. It is beyond beautiful, the beaches are all incredible and the walks are lovely but not too isolated.

Portmerion - they quite often do special deals out of season and it's really nice this time of year before the tourists take over. Also has nice walks etc

Porthmadog. Walks, Portmeirion, Glaslyn estuary etc. Or Llanberis for Snowdon.

Ruthin
Can drive to Moel Famau (walk offas dyke) and Llandegla one planet adventure has beautiful walks (including a lake) and cafe.
Could also get to llandudno and Llangollen.

I prefer Conwy to llandudno

Crickhowell is all ok now after the flooding. Only Bridge Street is still closed. I second Hay on Wye though OP!

Llandudno booked :-) thanks everyone x

Enjoy your break.

If you’re looking for a nice walk to a waterfall, head to Aber Falls - it’s about 10 mins away from Llandudno.

Gamble66 I was about the say the same about Barmouth 😂
Pembrokeshire, anglesey, llanberis, llangollen, beaumaris, beddgelert are all beautiful places in wales 😄

Have a lovely time in Llandudno. When you get to the top of the Ome, wave to me, I can see the Orme from my livingroom window. Fabulous view.

@troels will do 😊 x

@cobwebfew 😁 as a localish I know its great for walks but its ugly and grey plus not many good cafes or shops at the moment - the beach is great and we walk the dogs there but there are so many 'nicer' places for holidaying

I only meant because it’s a bit of a time warp place.

Here's a photo of Barmouth bridge. It's an amazing train ride.

OP if you like Italian food, mama Rosa in Craig-y-don is a fab little Italian bistro. It’s just two mins down the road from Llandudno, near venue Cymru.
Romeos in town is also good for Italian and the cottage loaf in town is great for quality pub food.
Walks are also good up the little orme as well as the great orme.
Bodnant gardens / Penrhyn castle have nice grounded walks. (Both have been posting updates since the flooding all last month though).

Newport Pembrokeshire

I would love to go to Pembrokeshire another time but it's too far this time. It does look beautiful

Colwyn Bay is beautiful, I daydream about retiring there and just sitting looking at the sea everyday!

Osborne House Hotel on Llandudno prom does a lovely afternoon tea if you fancy a bit of pampering!

I'm South Walian born and bred, but never done justice to North Wales. Hope it's wonderful for you, a friend has just been and confirmed it is beautiful!

"Colwyn Bay is beautiful"

Do you maybe mean the view of the sea? Because the high street is not beautiful.

Colwyn Bay is beautiful, I daydream about retiring there and just sitting looking at the sea everyday!
Only if you can transport yourself back to the 60's when the pier was still there and in good shape and we had a fun fair and Eirias park boating lake was full of kids trying to row a boat and yachting pond had old men and young kids with toy yachts.
It's all gone to hell in an handbasket now, sadly.

Go to Conwy on your trip. Visit the castle
and find somewhere for tea and cakes. Or chips on the harbour.
I seeing Mama Rosa's in Llandudno. See what is on at the theatre too.
I love walking right up to the end of the pier in the morning.

Definitely tenby. Or any where in pembrokeshire. Beautiful.
