| | | With its mountainous peaks and deep valleys Snowdonia is a spectacular place to visit and many who haven't been to Wales will be pleasantly surprised to find such a stunning landscape easily reachable. |
| Most of the 112,000 population live in the larger towns of Abergele, Colwyn Bay and Llandudno - all of which market themselves as places for the kind of good old fashioned seaside holiday most people remember from their youth. |
| Llandudno relishes its title as Wales largest resort - with loads of good restaurants and over 700 hotels you won't be stuck for as place to stay even in the height of summer. |
| Here you'll find many safe (and award winningly clean) beaches perfect for building those monster sandcastles as big as the ones which dominate many towns in Wales. |
For a different day out visit the Great Orme Copper Mines, just five minutes from Llandudno. |
| A tour of the disused mine will show the conditions miners worked in and some of the unusual treasures discovered underground. |
Also take time to stop at the walled town of Conwy itself and explore the impressive looking castle with its 22 towers, which makes it one of the finest medieval towns you'll encounter even in this Land of the Castles. |
