St. Celynin’s Church, Llangelynnin
If you are in the Tywyn/Fairbourne area, it's well worth visiting St. Celynin's Church, Llangelynnin, near Llwyngwril. It's a very old and very simple, rustic church.

Set in an area of outstanding beauty, the ... continue reading...
Things To Do In Or Around Tenby
Tenby is a beautiful seaside town. It's pretty much perfect in my view. It's not as brash as some; it has a gentler appeal, but it's lively and bustling on a sunny day. The pretty ice cream colours of the buildings create a pretty canvas and its contained by its fine old town walls. There's an attractive harbour and a couple of beaches too. There's some decent shopping with a good mix of high street chains (including a few of the more upmarket ones) as well as plenty of individual shops. It's ... continue reading...
