Pembrokeshire coast all the way up to Anglesey, pretty much all of Mid Wales, some of the Rhondda… about 3/4 of the country fits this category |

I highly recommend Talley nr llandeilo, theres abbey ruins to explore, two lakes and woodland walks to enjoy. Oh and a great village shop with bean to cup coffee and even slushy’s and ice creams for the whole family to enjoy, you even get a service with a smile and a flirt. Highly recommended ; ) |

St Fagan's. A collection of buildings from various parts of Wales. My favourite bit is the Merthyr terrace where each house is fitted out to reflect a different period in the terrace's history from the 1820s to the 1980s. It's an absolutely fascinating place. |

I love St Fagans. Haven't been in years, but other half is not keen. Spend the majority of my visits eating fresh bread and wandering around in the sunshine.
Sod it, think I'll just go on my own.
Excellent suggestion, Roger!

St Fagan's social, anyone? As well as the bakery, they've now got a 1920s chippy and soon they'll have a pub. "
Oh my god, sold.
On the list for future social ideas!

"North Wales...
Say no more
Any specific recommendations, dear chap?
"
Firstly...does the St Fagans 1920's chippy do 1920's prices...?
Re North Wales where does one start...? The list is endless
The gateway to North Wales...Llangollen
The Queen of North Wales resorts...
Llandudno..
Beddgelert
Betws y coed
The ty coch at porthdinllaen
The rest of the Llyn peninsular..
Castles at Conway caernarfon, Beaumaris, and Harlech..
A particular beach North of Barmouth, south of Harlech...
Wrexham Lager
Bala and its lake
Dolgellau
Numerous narrow gauge railways
Wrexham lager
See the original Church tower of a replica that stands in the grounds of Yale University USA..
The Ceiriog Valley
The Birthplace of Welsh football
Wrexham lager
SNOWDONIA
NUMEROUS FILM locations
Just ask yourself one question why are the SEVEN wonders of WALES in North Wales
'of which in theses times the line
'Snowdons mount without its people' is so apt
The West may think they're best..
The South think they're bloody lush
They're just beasts in the east(especially around cwmbran)
But
Up North its just BLOODY MARVELLOUS

I dont know if it's a place as such, but several beaches where you can see the bioluminescent plankton.
Orgmore by sea, at the caves with a beach fire waiting for blue sparkles in the water is magic. The quieter coves around Porthcawl (they do exist) can be lovely too.
It's my favourite time of year coming up, spent hours on beaches hoping to see sparkles last year. Hopefully this year I'll be lucky!

"Think the Gower is one of the most beautiful places around, pick any beaches and you will find beautiful walks, Rhossilli bay and 3 cliffs are our favourite. "
Yes I agree anywhere down the Gower Peninsula |

"Just did Chepstow Castle, amazing day out!
The views from the ramparts are quite something, aren't they?"
They are, it's one of the best castles I've been to |

Not really “hidden” anymore - can be incredibly busy since being in loads of “Top 10 beaches in UK/Europe/World” lists!
Great tips on here. Don’t overlook the Valleys - incredibly beautiful spots, and so much history (some of it sad/difficult).
Mid Wales has more of a sense of space than other areas.
The Gower is great too (can be very busy) and, for my money, Rhossilli stands up against the finest beaches in Cali, Oz, NZ etc. Amazing beach. |
