City Breaks in Wales – Let us show you around

Wales offers all manner of urban excitement, perfect for people on the hunt for a spot of shopping, some fine dining and a good dollop of culture. Whether you’re after the metropolitan vibe of a capital city or the more relaxed environs of a friendly city by the sea, you’ll find it here. And who better to show you around than the locals – our city break guides have been created with the help of experts who live and work there. 

By the way, we’ve taken a fairly loose interpretation of city breaks. You’ll find plenty to keep you busy in some of our larger towns too – so we’ve included them here.

Cardiff

2000 years of history, boho Victorian shopping arcades, rocking live music, eclectic dining… and a pub with a speaking parrot.

Llandudno & Conwy

Historic Victorian charm, sparklingly fresh seafood, bracing coastal strolls, the UK’s longest cable car ride… and rumours of alien abductions.



Swansea

Lipsmacking seafood, a bustling market, miles of pristine sandy beach… and Dylan Thomas’ shiny knee

St Davids

An iconic cathedral, tasty local produce, eclectic shopping, wonderful wildlife walks… and a friendly Welsh cuddle
