North Wales is dotted with ancient sites – perhaps none more iconic than Caernarfon Castle, which took 37 years to build and is renowned as one of Europe's best-preserved medieval fortresses. You won't want to miss another historical site during your stay in a holiday cottage in North Wales. Erdigg Hall is a magnificent stately home with opulent interiors and an 18th-century walled garden.

One of the most popular activities visitors enjoy in North Wales is the strenuous ascent to Mount Snowdon's summit – Wales' highest mountain, at 1,085 metres. Nearby, in the pretty town of Blaenau Ffestiniog, the country's steepest narrow-gauge railway explores the spectacular Llechwedd Slate Caverns – an unforgettable day trip for visitors.

Bodnant Gardens cover 88 acres, with a waterfall and exquisite Italianate terraces overlooking the lush Conwy Valley. The gardens are near Colwyn Bay, a Victorian seaside resort nestled between the Irish Sea and the towering hillside of Pwllycrochan Woods. A wander along the three-mile promenade that overlooks the sandy shore is highly recommended. Nearby, Llandudno is a classic seaside resort with a 19th-century pier and plenty of nostalgic amusements. Further east, Rhyl is another popular resort with a sandy beach, an aquarium, and botanical gardens.

Harlech Castle is one of North Wales' iconic landmarks, perched precariously on a crag, overlooking the crashing waves. The town of Harlech is a lovely place to explore on foot, with a sandy beach and a historic centre with a variety of shops, pubs and restaurants.

Gwynedd is a beautiful, scenic destination for hiking, with great swathes of hilly countryside to explore. The village of Dinas Mawddwy is an excellent base from which to discover the area, located at the convergence of the Cerist and Dovey rivers at the foot of two imposing hills. The secluded beaches and unspoiled countryside of the Isle of Anglesey have attracted visitors for centuries.

The island is dotted with pretty villages, such as Moelfre, a lovely fishing community with a historic harbour. The town of Beaumaris is a must-see on the Isle of Anglesey, with fine Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian architecture. Don't miss the chance to climb to the top of South Stack Lighthouse for breathtaking coast views.

Near the twin towns of Porthmadog and Tremadog, the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways pass ancient woods, sweeping estuaries and spectacular stretches of the North Wales coast. Further west, the Llyn Peninsula is home to long-extinct volcanic peaks, rocky bays, and wild hills scattered with Iron Age forts. The charming villages of Abersoch and Morfa Nefyn are idyllic bases for visitors to this remote North Wales region.

Further east, near the English border, the bustling market town of Wrexham is packed with independent businesses. Nearby, the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct towers over the Vale of Llangollen. Designed by Thomas Telford, it symbolises the industrialisation of the region in the early 19th century.
