You’ll find plenty to keep you occupied when you book your Wales holiday letting, especially if you love the outdoors. One of the highlights is Snowdonia, a beautiful national park in the north of the country. This park covers an area of more than 2000 sq. km and hosts the magnificent Mount Snowdon, the highest peak in Wales.

In Snowdonia and the other national parks, such as the mountainous Brecon Beacons and coastal Pembrokeshire, you can engage in many fun outdoor activities, including hiking and cycling, as well as some adventure sports.

Once you’ve had your fill of outdoor pursuits, step back in time by visiting some of the castles that are dotted around the country. The stunningly well-preserved castle in Caernarfon, which dates back to the 11th century, is one of the best in Europe and is a definite must-see. Another good option is Conwy Castle, which is located just 30 minutes from Caernarfon in North Wales. This castle is a World Heritage site and dates back to the 13th century.
