Visitors to Wales are often staggered by quite how picturesque it can be here and nowhere more so than at Tenby, probably the most iconic seaside town in the country. Tenby Beach is the generic name given to not one but four of its beaches, all of which offer sheltered, deep blue water and outstanding views.

Running the length of the beautiful coastline of south-west Wales, the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park takes in rugged cliffs, craggy offshore islands, fabulous beaches, pretty moorland hills and an amazingly diverse range of wildlife.

Stretching along the Pembrokeshire Coast, Freshwater East Beach is a haven for wildlife and a great spot for holidaymakers to spend a day. This sandy beach with its rolling dunes and striking red cliffs is a little off the beaten track so it never gets too crowded with visitors, leaving you plenty of space to explore the many rock pools.

Devil’s Bridge, situated in Ceredigion in Mid-Wales, is a strikingly unusual structure, which rises high above the River Mynach. It stands at the point where the river drops 300 feet down a steep and narrow ravine before it meets the River Rheidol.

Aberystwyth University has a proud history dating back to 1872, when it was established by the people of Wales as the first Welsh university.

Regarded as one of the most impressive castles in Wales, visitors to Carew Castle can trace the structure’s history from Norman fortifications to when it became an Elizabethan country home owned by Sir John Perrot, possibly an illegitimate son of Henry VIII, before its eventual abandonment in the 17th Century. Several notable features have resulted, including earthworks created by Royalist defenders during the Civil War and window frames dating to Tudor times that were made of imported Cotswold stone that stands out against the local limestone used for the rest of the building.
