Hailed as the “Queen of the Welsh Resorts”, with its stunning coastline and buzzing nightlife, Llandudno offers a royal welcome to you that richly rewards. Llandudno is the largest resort in Wales. It sits comfortably between the Great and Little Ormes and boasts two wonderful sandy beaches, which is a rare treat indeed for anywhere in the British isles.

Wales has many market towns, but you’ll be stuck to find any that compare to Conwy.

Located on the North Wales coast, this medieval town is literally one of a kind.

There’s nothing like a seaside getaway, and it doesn’t get much better than the historic resort town of Colwyn Bay on the north coast of Wales. Book a family holiday, a romantic weekend or just a business break to Colwyn Bay and you’re bound fall in love with the crashing waves and sandy beaches that make this one of Wales’ top tourist destinations.

Betws –y-Coed literally means ‘the prayer house in the woods’ and this pretty village certainly offers those who seek to be surrounded by natural beauty of an almost mystical grandeur exactly what they are looking for. The village is better known as ‘the gateway to Snowdonia’ and it certainly offers a triumphant introduction to the joys to come.

Although Abergele can sometimes be overlooked in favour of more well known north coast holiday resorts in Wales, it still holds its own and has a good choice of things to do and the splendour of the Irish Sea to provide the perfect backdrop to them.

Set in the Vale of Clwyd in the northeast of Wales, Denbigh is a historic market town lying amid beautiful scenery to the east of Snowdonia. Denbigh in Welsh is ‘Dinbych’, which means ‘little fortress’, a fitting name for the town, which is dominated by a ruined hilltop castle that looms above the bustling main square.
