When thinking of places to venture in the coming winter months,
North Wales may not be your first thought. However, I'm here to
tell you why it should be! Not only has North Wales been voted
number 4 in the top 10 regions to visit in the 2017 Lonely Planet Travel Guide (the only
UK region to feature in the list, I should add); it really is a
year-round destination.
Like all places, with the changing seasons, comes changing
colours, changing wildlife and of course, changing weather! But
winter doesn't have to mean North Wales is off limits. Some of the
region's attractions may have reduced opening hours for the season,
but the great outdoors never closes its doors to visitors!
North Wales is home to the most spectacular scenery
throughout the year; there are miles and miles of coastline,
forests, mountain ranges and wonderful Welsh countryside to take in
during your travels. Even though the temperature drops, there is
nothing better than wrapping up and making the most of wintery
walks in the great outdoors. Picture a beautiful beach on a crisp
day, strolling the sand with the sea breeze making your cheeks glow
and breathing in that Welsh fresh air your lungs long for. That
bright blue sky and winter chill kept at bay by layers and a brisk
pace. Or you could be gazing from atop the Great Orme, making
progress on the many coastal paths in the region or watching
wonderful wildlife - North Wales in winter still offers its
visitors plenty to explore!
After all your adventures, there is no better place to
rest your head (and most probably tired feet) than a
cosy cottage! We have cottages across the
whole of North Wales where you can enjoy
relaxing in comfort, put your feet up and take it easy. Maybe even
light the log burner, to get extra warm and
toasty. Whether it be on Anglesey
, the Lleyn Peninsula or in
Snowdonia we'll have the perfect
cottage for your winter getaway. Want to bring your dog along for
winter walks too? Not a problem! We have nearly 200 dog-friendly cottages that are
perfect for you and your pooch.
Don't be put off by the season, winter in North Wales is just as
magical as any other time of year - just make sure to bring your
woolly hat and walking boots! What are you waiting for? The
outdoors is ready for your arrival!
