For a fun holiday with friends and family try a multi activity holiday where you get to design your own programme of activities and events. You can make your break as relaxing or as active as you want. For an adrenaline rush choose activities like Coasteering, Mountain Biking or a High Rope Course and when you want to relax get arty on a creative course or learn how to make traditional Welsh dishes on a cookery course.
After a full day in the outdoors jumping off cliffs, catching a wave or climbing mountains you’ll be in need of a good evening meal. And in Wales you’ll find a thriving food scene with award winning restaurants serving fresh local food.
If you have a passion for fresh local food find out if there’s a food festival you can visit whilst you’re here or maybe improve your culinary skills at one of Wales’ finest cookery schools.

Ever fancied being captain of your own boat?
Enjoy a weekend break on one of Wales’ inland waterways by hiring a narrowl boat. For groups of friends wanting an alternative type of activity holiday, narrow boat holidays let you navigate a canal boat through locks and along waterways. As you glide along the canals you’ll discover quaint historic towns and country pubs perfect for mooring your boat and exploring.
One of the most famous canals to take a narrow boat holiday on is the Llangollen Canal in North Wales. Your journey takes you past wonderful green countryside, underground through the long Chirk Tunnel and onto Thomas Telford’s famous Pontcysyllte Aqueduct.
The Pontcysyllte Aqueduct is one of 3 World Heritage Sites you can visit in Wales and commands stunning views over the valley and River Dee 120ft below.
