A Victorian folly that looks like a medieval fortress, Bodelwyddan Castle forms a unique part of the North Wales landscape. Spend your time strolling around the extensive parkland and gardens, go on three included half-day excursions, or get involved in the many and varied activities which make a Warner’s holiday so memorable. Please note: Warner properties are usually spread over a large area, so some walking may be required between bedroom and restaurant / leisure facilities. Number of single rooms at the published supplement are very limited.
Day 1 MONDAY We travel through the English counties and across into Wales before continuing to our hotel in Denbighshire, arriving late afternoon in time for dinner.
Day 2 TUESDAY Today, we visit Chester. The old city retains many well-preserved half-timbered houses as well as the unique Rows, its magnificent two-tier medieval arcades housing independent boutiques. There are delightful riverside walks to enjoy as well as the famous City Walls.
Day 3 WEDNESDAY Join us on an excursion into the Snowdonia National Park to the popular resort of Betws-y-Coed. Nestling amid high forests of true alpine splendour, it is frequently referred to as ‘Little Switzerland’. The village offers craft shops, restaurants and cafés, a railway museum (subject to opening times) and the famous Swallow Waterfalls.
Day 4 THURSDAY This morning we visit Llandudno. Known as the Queen of the Welsh Resorts, Llandudno is the largest seaside town in North Wales and is rich in history. You will see Victorian and Edwardian elegance when walking along the promenade. Try to spot sea birds over the Great and Little Ormes whilst having some seaside fun on Llandudno Pier or take in the sea air on a stroll across the beach.
Day 5 FRIDAY Departing our hotel after breakfast, we make our way southwards, having suitable refreshment stops along the way, and arriving in the local area late afternoon.
