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

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.

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.

Harlech and Ardudwy Leisure Center is a community owned and run facility in the heart of southern Snowdonia. The center boasts a 25m meter pool hosting a range of activities, an extensive and innovative climbing wall, coupled with a fantastic cafe serving home cooked meals and cakes. It really is a place the whole family can enjoy.

We arrived as they were opening so had the whole place largely to ourselves. The staff were extremely friendly and informative. We were given hard hats and torches and sent off into the caverns. The tour is self guided and the information boards are well written and interesting. Well worth a visit, dress up warm though, it’s cold down there! Good gift shop.

Went here with my mum (70) and my son (3 next month) and we had a fab time! Spent 3 hours here and my little boy really didn’t want to leave! Staff are so friendly. Very relaxed atmosphere. Animals are so close and fab being able to cuddle the bunnies. Play barn was a bonus when it rained! Would recommend to anyone with young children if in and around Harlech. We drove 50 mins and was well worth it.

Hubby and I called in here to find as many sheep gifts as we could for our daughter who is mad about them. The lady was extremely friendly and very helpful. We were allowed to take our two greyhounds into the shops well. When we returned home, I broke one of the gifts so I called the shop and hopefully a replacement will be on its way to me soon. I can’t praise the lady in the shop enough, both the visit and the phone call she was really helpful and accommodating.
