"13/06/2021: As my wife & I haven’t been to Caernarfon for many years we asked for advice on where to eat. The Black Boy was recommended to us by quite a few people so we decided to give it a try and we’re so glad we did. The food and atmosphere was excellent."

"One of the oldest inns in Wales dating back to 1552 situated within the old town walls. Traditional inn – eat fresh not fast!. Serving locally produced home cooked traditional meals."

"When you step into Portmeirion you’ll wonder if you’ve stepped into a fairy tale. This tourist village is like a movie set and was designed in the style of an Italian village. It’s a magical place to visit with colourful buildings with ornate details and lovely walks through the forest and around the estuary. There are shops and places to eat so you can make it a full day out."

"Ffestiniog Railway - Llechwedd Slate Caverns - Portmerion - overnight in North Wales A day of sightseeing in dramatic Snowdonia, including a visit to Llechwedd Slate Caverns at Blaenau Ffestiniog and a scenic ride on the narrow-gauge Ffestiniog Railway from Blaenau Ffestiniog to Porthmadog Harbour. The day concludes with a visit to the colourful fantasy village of Portmerion."

"One of the true highlights of North Wales is Portmeirion, a tiny fantasy-Italianate village on a private peninsula surrounded by hills;…"

"Majestic Caernarfon Castle was built by Edward I between 1283 and 1330 as a military stronghold, seat of government and royal palace. Designed and mainly supervised by Master James of St George, from Savoy, its brief and scale were extraordinary. Today it remains one of the most complete and impressive castles in Britain – you can walk on and through the interconnected walls and towers gathered around the central green, most of which are well preserved but empty."

"Caernarfon Castle, a short walk from Sosban, is another breathtaking example of King Edward I’s might, in amazing shape despite being built in the 13th century."

"The grim, majestic mass of Caernarfon Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, looms over the waters of the River Seiont. Numerous bloody…"

"Wal is a convivial little place, its cosy interior bisected by Roman arches and packed with merry people. The staff are charming and the plates are big, well-presented and tasty. The char-grilled steaks, sourced..."

"Kick off the journey by heading two hours west before pulling over for a lunch break at Bodnant Welsh Food Centre. This 18th-century estate has been transformed into an award-winning farm-to-table restaurant, culinary school and organic produce shop. Snag a seat in the rustic-chic dining room, The Hayloft, to tuck into traditional Welsh plates including black pudding with lamb Scotch egg, or Menai mussels in a garlic cream sauce. After having your fill, meander down the road to the small riverside village of Trefriw."

"On the west side of the vast Bodnant Estate, a collection of lavishly restored 18th-century farm buildings now operates as Bodnant Welsh Food. One of the big attractions here is the Farm Shop, a wonderful showcase for Welsh produce comprising bakery, dairy, deli and the kind of butchery that knows the name of practically every animal that passes over the counter. Around half of what's sold here is produced on site or sourced in Wales."

"Start your day at Bodnant Food Centre, approximately 10 minutes’ drive from Surf Snowdonia (30-35 minutes from both Plas Curig and Pen-Y-Gwryd): inhale the comforting smell of freshly-baked Welsh cakes, and treat yourself to one (or three) for breakfast."

"If you’d rather spend your week in the same accommodation for the whole week then I’d recommend staying in the centre of Snowdonia National Park and then you’ll need to drive for about an hour each way to get to most places I’ve mentioned. The drives around North Wales are absolutely stunning so, if you don’t mind driving, this is probably the easiest option."

"Laid out in 1875 and painstakingly landscaped over 150 years, Bodnant is one of Wales’ most beautiful gardens. Lord Aberconway of the McLaren family (which once lived in the gracious late-18th-century pile at the heart of Bodnant) bequeathed the lush 32-hectare property to the National Trust in 1949. Formal Italianate terraces overlook the River Conwy and Snowdonia's Carneddau Mountains, and rectangular ponds creep down from the house into the orderly disorder of a picturesque wooded valley and wild garden."
