Harlech Beach

Reviewed By JSHD2016 - Oxfordshire, United Kingdom

This beach is stunning and the water is quite warm in patches in the summer months. Definitely go and definitley take your golf clubs too because there is a golf course within stones throw of the beach along with camping and the steepest street in the world (according to Guiness World Book of records) just down the road plus castle. Enjoy

Merthyr Farm Camping

Reviewed By rackers82 - Banbury, United Kingdom

This is an absolute gem of a campsite. Stunningly beautiful views that incorporate mountains, the estuary and the sea. Incredibly peaceful in the evening. Lizzie and Bryn were really helpful when booking, advice for travel and arrival and getting set up. Everything was well set up for social distancing and sanitation. Plenty of sanitiser everywhere and a range of options from using your own facilities to reserved bathrooms. We absolutely loved our stay here and would definitely recommend Merthyr Farm.

Snowdonia Soaps

Reviewed By kaylan179 - Leicester, United Kingdom

What can I say about this wonderful shop that I found in Harlech. I’ve been visiting the area for over 25 years and came across this little haven last year. I have since bought all of my toiletries from Snowdonia Soaps, the shampoo and conditioner bars have made my hair the healthiest it has ever been, the whipped soap is a must and all the bath products are fantastic! Oh and the face soap, cleanser, serum and oil are all amazing! I feel like I’m having a pamper session every day! As you can see from my photos I have quite a haul. I just can’t get enough of these fantastic products! Try it, you will not look back! #supportsmallbuisness

Harlech Castle

Harlech Castle crowns a sheer rocky crag overlooking the dunes far below – waiting in vain for the tide to turn and the distant sea to lap at its feet once again. No further drama is really required but, just in case, the rugged peaks of Snowdonia rise as a backdrop. Against fierce competition from Conwy, Caernarfon and Beaumaris, this is probably the most spectacular setting for any of Edward I’s castles in North Wales. All four are designated as a World Heritage Site. The displayed opening times are our general pattern. Please check the Cadw website for specific times and days, including closures.

Harlech Castle (Welsh: Castell Harlech), located in Harlech, Gwynedd, Wales, is a medieval fortification, constructed atop a spur of rock close to the Irish Sea. It was built by Edward I during his invasion of Wales between 1282 and 1289. UNESCO considers Harlech to be one of "the finest examples of late 13th century and early 14th century military architecture in Europe", and it is classed as a World Heritage site.

Royal St. David's Golf Club

This championship golf course has many things going for it, especially the magnificent scenery highlighted by the vast range of mountains to the north, and historic Harlech Castle casting its shadow from above.

Reviewed By Trail956hs - Henley in Arden, United Kingdom

Despite the rain, another enjoyable round on this famous and fabulous course. A true test of golf, particularly the last 4 or 5 holes where you really need your best game on the day. Unusual for the 18th to be a par 3. The course was in great condition despite the rain and all the staff are friendly and helpful. Good bacon butties in the clubhouse too!

Y Lasynys Fawr

Home of the author, Ellis Wynne, remembered largely because of 'Visions of the Sleeping Bard', a Welsh masterpiece. More than two- thirds of the external stone walls belong to a house built towards the end of the Elizabethan period. It is believed that parts of the house dates from 1500 which suggests that an earlier construction occupied this site. However, the house has stood the test of time and it is here to be admired.
