Highlights of Wales

On this trip, we use two 4* hotels – spending three nights in South Wales in St Davids, Pembrokeshire and then three nights in North Wales on the edge of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park.

In Pembrokeshire, we stay in Twr y Felin, a former windmill, lovingly refurbished and expanded into Wales’ first contemporary art hotel.

In North Wales, we stay in Ty’n Rhos, a family-run country house hotel nestled in the foothills of Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon).

Single Rooms

There is no supplement charged to solo travellers, however, you will be required to share a room with another person of the same sex. If you request a double room for single occupancy, a supplement of £550 is charged.

Due to the nature of the accommodations we use, single supplements are limited and are allocated on a first come first served basis.

On this trip, all meals are included from lunch on day 1 to lunch on day 7, except for dinner on day 3. Included dinners are two courses as standard.

Green Graded 1-3

Green graded walking holidays are suitable for active travellers who are reasonably fit and enjoy moderate hikes. We walk at a comfortable pace and you can expect to be out for 5-6 hours a day. The terrain will be mostly good paths and hill trails, but these can still be muddy and rough in places. Some hikes may involve an ascent up to approximately 450 m/1,500 feet. Distances will be typically 8-10km/5-6.5 miles, but there may be the odd slightly longer day. Daily hike details are available in the itinerary.

You will be met by your Wilderness England Guide at Cardiff Railway Station at 9:30am on Day 1 of your trip. Meet just outside the South Entrance, by the red postbox. There are regular direct trains from London to Cardiff, and you can usually leave London early on day 1 and arrive into Cardiff before the meeting time.

The trip will conclude at Chester Railway Station at 4:30pm on the final day of the trip. There are direct trains from Chester to London every hour or so. There are also direct trains between Chester and Cardiff if needed.
