WALES, a country with several distinct regions, each with its own characteristic atmosphere.

Our North Wales area covers Anglesey, as well as the counties of Wrexham, Flintshire, Denbighshire, Conwy, and Gwynedd which also include the Snowdonia National Park.

The Mid-Wales area covers Ceredigion and Powys which includes the Brecon Beacons National Park. Adjoining is Carmarthenshire with Swansea and the Gower Peninsula, long time a favourite holiday destination.

Then there is South Wales, an area with a rich industrial heritage, particularly in the valleys, but where there are now only small remnants of the traditional industries of steel and coal production for which the area became famous. Coking coal from here was so sought after that it was shipped all over the world. One destination was the small town of Jerome, high on a hillside in Arizona, to which it was carried first by sailing ship across the Atlantic, round Cape Horn, up the west coast of the USA and finally on mule trains over mountains to be used in this centre of copper production.

Cardiff, capital city of Wales, is also home to the Millennium Stadium which hosts major rugby and soccer tournaments plus some fantastic music concerts.

Pembrokeshire is known as the "little bit of England beyond Wales" where Welsh is rarely spoken and is certainly not the native language of the majority of residents. The county is famous for magnificent sandy beaches, dramatic coastline, islands and birdlife (hence the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park). Here you can enjoy some of Britain's cleanest beaches; learn diving, sailing or windsurfing in safe sheltered waters; walk the 168 miles of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path along one of the nation's most beautiful cliff tops. There are quiet sandy havens and traditional sea-side resorts.
Dale Princess visits the islands of Skomer, Skokholm and Grassholm      Boats will take you to islandsinhabited by puffins, seals and even monks!

The island of Skomer is a nature reserve managed by the Dyfed Wildlife Trust, which can be visited on the Dale Princess from Martins Haven. The waters around the island were designated as the UK's first Marine Nature Reserve and island has the largest seabird colony in southern Britain with large numbers of Puffins, Guillemots, Razorbills and Kittiwakes in addition to 40% of the world's population of Manx Shearwaters - about 160,000 pairs.

No one can fail to be impressed by the cathedral at St. David's and the Milford Haven oil refineries, unobtrusive by day are an impressive sight at night lit up like visiting spaceships.

Wherever you wish to visit in Wales, we offer a wide selection of accommodation to suit all needs ... hotels and motels in Wales for vacations or business travellers. Less formal guest accommodation in guest houses or bed and breakfasts in Wales .

If you are looking for self-catering accommodation in Wales we may be able to offer you Welsh apartments, Welsh villas, Welsh aparthotels, Welsh cottages and houses, Welsh lodges and self-catering static caravan mobile homes.
