Wales is home to arguably some of the most beautiful landscapes in the British Isles where visitors return year after year. One of the most popular caravanning destinations, this small nation holds appeal for those seeking tranquil getaways or adrenaline fuelled holidays alike.
Experience a wealth of beautiful villages (with suitably tongue-twisting names) en route to the epic Gower Peninsula with its limestone cliffs and broad sweeping beaches.
Or head to one of the two major national parks. The Brecon Beacons in the South and the beautiful Snowdonia National Park in the North both serve as fantastic jumping off points for outdoor activities including walking, biking, and watersports. Adrenaline junkies looking to ramp it up a notch should head for Llandudno on the northern most shores.
And pick up something good to read in Hay-on-Wye, home to the world's largest stash of second-hand books, and where the Hay Festival celebrates literature and the arts for 10 days every summer.
