A Cadw-run castle above the River Gwendraeth, with a Monty Python film cameo and nine centuries of Welsh-English history.
Kidwelly Castle (Castell Cydweli) is a ruined castle overlooking the River Gwendraeth and the town of Kidwelly in Carmarthenshire. It began as a Norman earth and timber ringwork in the early 12th century, and the semicircular outer ditch still survives.
Tip: Look for the inner ward's four towers, which were raised in height in the 1390s to overlook the outer ward.

A Pembrokeshire farm park with a zoo, barn, vintage fairground and play areas, and a Best Day Out in Wales award.
Folly Farm began as a dairy farm and has grown into an award-winning family attraction with four areas: a farmyard, a zoo, an undercover vintage funfair with a Wurlitzer organ, and play areas. The zoo has over 200 species, including African lions, Humboldt and Macaroni penguins, and critically endangered eastern black rhinos in Kifaru Reserve.
Tip: Pre-booking a date isn't required, and online tickets save 5%. A free return visit within seven days is offered if you can't see everything in one day, but get the ticket validated before you leave.

A Grade I listed Welsh castle ruin with Tudor links, standing above the River Towy in Carmarthen.
Carmarthen Castle is a ruined medieval fortress in the county town of Carmarthen, on a high terrace overlooking the tidal River Towy. It began as an early 1100s timber motte and bailey, was rebuilt in stone and was captured, destroyed and rebuilt many times. Owain Glyndŵr took it in 1405, and Henry VII's father, Edmund Tudor, died here as a prisoner in 1456.

Step into the clifftop Laugharne home where Dylan Thomas lived and wrote during his last four years.
The Boathouse in Laugharne is where Dylan Thomas lived with his family between 1949 and 1953. Set in a cliff overlooking the Tâf estuary, it is now a museum run by Carmarthenshire County Council. The interior has been returned to its 1950s appearance, with a recording of Thomas's voice playing in the background, and it holds memorabilia and some original furniture, including his father's desk.
Tip: Visit the writing shed close to the main house, where Thomas did most of his writing, and look across the estuary that inspired "Over Sir John's Hill".

Home to the world's largest single-span glasshouse, in the River Tywi valley in Carmarthenshire.
The National Botanic Garden of Wales is in Llanarthney, in the River Tywi valley. It is both a visitor attraction and a centre for botanical research and conservation. The centrepiece is the Great Glasshouse, the world's largest single-span glasshouse at 110 m long and 60 m wide. It stands virtually on the site of Cockerell's mansion, the new Middleton Hall.
Tip: Look out across the restored eastern view towards Paxton's Tower, which was designed to be seen from the mansion's east side.

Swansea's museum telling 300 years of Welsh industry and innovation, in a listed warehouse and modern slate-and-glass building.
The National Waterfront Museum in Swansea's Maritime Quarter tells the story of industry and innovation in Wales over the last 300 years. It is part of Amgueddfa Cymru – Museum Wales, housed in an original listed warehouse linked to an ultra-modern slate and glass building.
Tip: There's no dedicated car park, but several pay and display car parks are a short walk away. For satnav, the museum's site suggests postcode SA1 3ST.

Wales's oldest museum, with six galleries of Swansea history, from an Egyptian mummy to a Welsh kitchen.
Swansea Museum is the oldest museum in Wales, opened in 1841 in a Grade II* listed neo-classical building in the Maritime Quarter. Its six galleries hold objects from Swansea, Wales and the wider world, with everything from an Egyptian mummy to a Welsh kitchen. Temporary exhibitions change through the year, so there is usually something different to see.
Tip: Parking at the museum is limited to a few free spaces, so the City Gates NCP or East Burrows Road car parks, both about a 4-minute walk away, are a good fallback.

A medieval castle on a limestone crag in the Brecon Beacons National Park, with a cave beneath it.
Carreg Cennen Castle stands on a high rocky outcrop above the River Cennen, near the village of Trap and four miles south east of Llandeilo. It sits within the Brecon Beacons National Park and is cared for by Cadw. The castle you see today was probably built by John Giffard and his son after Edward I's conquest of Wales.
Tip: The castle is reached by a steep climb up the hill from Castell Farm, near the car park, so wear sensible footwear.
Drive times are typical times by car with no traffic. Check opening times and book tickets on each attraction's own website before you go.

Really enjoyed our stay here! The cottage was cosy and well located, perfect for escaping the busy city. The owners were friendly without being overbearing, which we appreciated. The hot tub was a lovely touch, making evenings extra special. Overall, just the right balance of comfort and privacy. Would definitely come back!
We really enjoyed our stay at Goddard Mead. The cottage had everything we needed and the walks right outside were perfect for relaxing. The hosts made us feel very welcome, which was lovely.
We had a lovely stay! The place was spotless, well-equipped and the hot tub was a real treat.
Great little cottage, perfect for a peaceful getaway. Just a heads up, planes fly overhead at night since it's close to Stanstead Airport. The hot tub is a real highlight though!
We spent a week here in July with our two mini dachshunds and honestly, we all had a great time. The cottage itself is charming and the hot tub was such a nice touch, especially during those scorching days - the cool water was so refreshing! The hosts were really friendly and welcoming, which made us feel at home. It was lovely to see their dogs being taken to the fields every day; it added a nice touch of normality. Being close to Stansted and on the flight path was pretty cool too - we enjoyed watching the planes land. Would definitely stay again!
The place was really peaceful and perfect for our dog, with a fully enclosed garden, loved it!
We had an amazing stay! The place was spotless, super comfy and the hot tub was a highlight.
We had a really lovely time! Sharon and Robert were such friendly hosts, making us feel right at home from the start. The place was spotless, comfy and perfect for Archie with good security. The location was spot on - loads of nice walks and nearby villages like Thaxted are charming. We definitely left feeling refreshed and relaxed. All in all, a great little escape and wed happily come back!

Such a tranquil spot, the Jacuzzi really made our stay special! Definitely returning.
We had a fantastic stay at this charming cottage, tucked away on a working farm but surprisingly private. Robert and Sharon are such lovely hosts, making us feel really welcome. The place itself is huge, with a well-equipped kitchen and bathroom and the bed was super comfy. The garden is perfect for dogs-completely secluded and furnished nicely. There are plenty of walks nearby and Thaxted has some great eateries like The Star and The Maypole. Wed definitely recommend it!
We had a lovely stay at this cosy spot. Sharon and Robert really go the extra mile to make everything perfect. Its so peaceful here and even after visiting twice, we cant wait to come back again!
We loved the place-beautiful, super clean, well equipped and so comfy. The hot tub was a highlight!
We loved the cosy cottage and the warm welcome from the owners made it special.
We stayed in a really lovely, well-equipped house that was super warm, which was a relief during the rainy December weather. The bath was fantastic and the shower was spacious and relaxing. The place is right under a flight path, but honestly, it didnt bother us at all. Perfect spot for dogs that hate fireworks, being so remote. Thanks so much!
Lovely stay! The owners were really welcoming and the jacuzzi was a definite highlight. Great time!
We had a fantastic stay! The cottage was spotless, well-equipped and there were some lovely little touches that made it extra special. Highly recommended!

We had a fantastic stay! The house was super well equipped and kept us warm on that rainy December day, which was a real bonus. The bath was absolutely lovely and the shower was a great size. Being near a flight path didnt bother us at all and its perfect if your dogs hate fireworks since its so remote. Thanks a lot for a wonderful break!
We had a lovely stay at this place, nestled in such a peaceful, private spot. The owners were genuinely friendly and always ready to help if needed, but you still feel tucked away from everything. The hot tub was just what we needed after a long day of cycling - absolute bliss! One thing though, the cottage's right under Stansteds flight path, so theres quite a bit of aircraft noise. It didnt bother us much after a while, but if youre sensitive to noise, just a heads up. Overall, a great find!
We absolutely loved the cottage - cosy log burner, relaxing hot tub and peaceful surroundings. Hosts were lovely. Cant wait to come back for longer!
We really enjoyed our stay at Goddard Mead! The cottage had everything we needed and the walks right outside were perfect. The hosts were super friendly and made us feel very welcome. Lovely experience!

We had such a lovely, relaxing break. The cottage was spotless, well-equipped and had some sweet little extras. Definitely recommend it to anyone!
We had such a lovely stay! The cottage was spotless and well kitted out with everything we needed. The dog walks right outside were perfect for our furry friends and the farm animals, especially Penelope the pig, were such a delight. The host was super friendly and really quick to respond. Well definitely return-great value for money!
We really appreciated how well everything was organised and the place itself was just lovely. The hosts made us feel so welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Cant wait to come back someday!
We had a really lovely stay here! Sharon and Robert were such welcoming hosts, making us feel right at home from the start. The place was spotlessly clean, comfy and perfect for our dog Archie - we felt totally secure. The location was fantastic, with so many lovely walks nearby and exploring Thaxted and the surrounding villages was a real treat. We definitely left feeling refreshed and relaxed. Would happily come back!
Nice place, just a bit tight in the bedrooms.
Most of the staff were absolutely fantastic. Thank you ladies. I’ve given a five for the two young men who were rude and unhelpful.
We had an amazing time at Camarthen Bay. The location is stunning and there’s always something to do for the children, I would always pre book activities in advance to ensure we got a place. The staff are always helpful and friendly and there is always someone around to help. The beach is a stone throw away and so beautiful. I would definitely stay here again.
Fantastic holiday. I absolutely adore Wales and thought I would stay in a chalet in camathan bay this time. I loved every minute of it. At the end of the day if you love being remote and away from the rat race. This is the place to stay. Great for the children. A stones throw away from the beach. Yes you are on country roads and unfortunately there is a lot of that in Wales and that is what I love. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Cosy home from home chalets.
Staff are amazing upgraded us ASAP no problems
Beautiful holiday park would highly recommend staff are great clean place really nice and enjoyable
Great site. Only downside is the proximity of the train line, which to be fair after the first couple of nights even the 25 oil tankers and diesel engine didn't wake us.
