There is so much to see and do around here. Go to Betwys-y-Coed and visit swallow falls ans the fairy Glen. Walk along the estuary at Borth Y Gest and take the Steam train from Blaenau to Caerarfon. Drive on the sand at Porthmadog. VIsit Gellerts grave at Beddglert. Visit the Italian village of Portmeirion. Go to Llangollen and drive up the horseshoe pass, catch the steam train or take a canal boat trip. Take a calan boat trip over the Froncysycllte aqueduct, take the train up Snowdown....the list is endless lol just bring a raincoat the weather is very changeable!

You need to visit Portmeirion which is a folly tourist village in Gwynedd, North Wales. It was designed and built by Sir Clough Williams-Ellis between 1925 and 1975 in the Baroque style and is now owned by a charitable trust.

One thing (of many) I like about the your videos is the respectful way you refer to things even things you may not like. I also like the cheery happy manner that comes over as you look around.

Glad you’ve enjoyed, wife and have been going to North Wales from Nottingham area for 54 years , you will NEVER run out of interesting and beautiful places to visit. We have such wonderful memories of people and places, please keep going and support the area!

Another vote for visiting Portmeirion. Be seeing you.

llandudno went on holiday in 1966 with my parents its the only place thats got better over the years and a punch and judy show would be watching that I am in my 70s love tradition!

Memories. I met my husband in 1983 in North Wales, whilst i was doing my Nursing, and then Midwifery ,training there. He and our 2 sons are Welsh speaking, and we lived there until the mid 90's. My in laws still live there. We moved to York,where we LOVED .Then emigrated from the Uk. We plan to visit York next year, and my in-laws, too. There were so many any familiar places, but I really don't miss that Weather

The isle of Anglesey is stunning

Criccieth in North Wales was my families holiday destination and I'll always love North Wales because of those memories. I'd recommend visits to Harlech, Caernarfon or Beaumaris (on Anglesey) Castles, a ride on the Ffestiniog railway, a visit to Portmeirion and a trip up Snowdon.

I would recommend the coastline of Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire. The Gower Peninsular was the first Area of Outstanding Beauty in Britain and is where I am lucky enough to live. Castell Coch is a beautiful castle to explore and lastly, St Fagans national museum of Wales where you can spend the whole day popping in and out of ancient buildings which are furnished in the period they were built.

I watched Punch and Judy many times as a kid, and loved it, then took the same amount of pleasure watching my kids enjoy it. It's just one of those British things.

I can’t believe you went to Llandudno! I’m from London, but my grandparents were from Llandudno so I have spent half my life up there. It is one of my favourite places in the world! We scattered my nan’s ashes on the Orme, & we had a memorial bench installed up there in her name, which we go & visit. I have always adored the pier, the trams & the cable cars. And I’ve had some lovely meals at Home Cookin’! If you ever go there again, have a meal at The Cottage Loaf. It’s always been my favourite place there to eat. I absolutely adored experiencing Llandudno through your eyes. Thank you for going there ❤️❤️

Went to Llandudno 10 years ago and had the best time. We stayed at the Grand Hotel and - although some people would find this really corny - I thought their entertainment was superb 😊 Musical acts, a stand-up comedian and karaoke 🎤 The pier is great and walking up the Great Orme is a fab experience!

Don’t know if others have mentioned it, but you were only a short bus ride to Conwy, which is a really interesting and lovely old walled town/harbour, with one of the best castles to explore in the UK. Definitely recommended for your next visit to the area.

I agree with the suggestions of Portmeirion for another visit, it's an amazing place especially in sunny weather, BUT they don't allow dogs :(

I'm 70 years old and remember the "professor" CODMAN Punch and Judy show in the late 50's- 60's Liverpool.

I stayed in Llandudno as a young kid in 1972. Remember it well. It was very cold , windy, and wet. All the sea front hotels were multi-coloured.

Port Merion is lovely, and there is some lovely walks around North Wales.

Great video, so glad you enjoyed North Wales. A Punch and Judy show by the seaside is quintessentially British. You guys should definitely go to see a Pantomime at Christmas ❤

This is my favourite place to go, every year since my girl was born we have spent Easter in llandudno apart from 2020, they have a fantastic hotel for people with disabilities that we go to, very lovely, that 37 years of Easter’s in this beautiful place xxx

It’s great to see you in Wales! The South West is the most beautiful in Wales, much prettier than the north

Snowdonia National Park. I believe you can get 3/4 of the way up by the Snowdonia railway and hike for an hour to reach the summit. Stunning views.

Llandudno was amazing. Trip up the orm blew my mind with the views aw ❤

Omg my home town 😍 Sooo happy to see you's here!!

Conwy is a great little town, and it has a lovely small coast and a marina.

I'm from Liverpool but my sister lives in Llandudno. Absolutely brilliant vlog thank you so much.

Llandudno is probably one of, if not the most favourite places of mine in the UK. I spend a week there once a year - there's something about it that just chills me out. I'd retire there if I had the money. So much to do. If you come back at any point, you should check out Happy Valley, an amazing park and gardens on the slopes of the Orme, you saw it from the pier. Shame you couldn't do the cable car up (or down) the Orme, that's an experience, and the views are spectacular - but as you found it's very choosy as to when it wants to run, or not.

Hi Guys, I visted Llandudno back in 2018 had a fantastic time, the pier was good, we also drove up The Orm which was amazing. Great video guys.

Carley will love the big wheel, as long as she's in her daddy's arms, such a beautiful doggy,another great video, cheers guys. 👍👍👍💯💥🐕👍😂

Great guys I have spent years passing Llandudno and then went a year ago, superb over Great Orme, the mountain goats are impressive

I went to school in Llandudno. 1972-1978.

First went here in 1956 on a day trip (setting off at 7am from W Yorks) that involved a train ride, coach to the Pier Head and then the boat St. Tudno to Llandudno pier. Then return the same day!

And Portmeirion village Fantastic place to visit

Was just in Llandudno last month funnily enough, it's lovely. There's a bit of everything, amazing scenery, the sea, shopping, great food, a pier and arcades, bars, hotels, old vs new architecture.

I’ve never been there but it looks a lovely place to visit. Didn’t know they still did Punch and Judy shows, I remember those on the seafront many years ago and it’s great to see they are doing them still over there in Wales 👍🏻 really enjoy your videos & can’t wait for the next one x

Used to love going to Llandudno as a kid when I lived in a neighbouring bit of England. North Wales is gorgeous - try going inland a bit and you'll find magical bits of woodland and villages.

Traeth Llanddwyn is a must. Barmouth, Harlech Castle, Penrhyn Castle, Bodnant, Plas Newydd, Chirk Castle, Plas Newydd, and further south Powys Castle.

North Wales is my favourite part of the UK and one of the most memorable spots is the walk up from the NT car park to Cwn Idwal, It is absolutely stunning. Llechhwed slate caverns make for an interesting tour and of course take in the views from the top of Snowden (if the clouds let you) - the steam train is a lovely way to the top if you don't fancy the climb. I will also echo the glowing praise for Conwy and its castle, which is delightful.

Absolutely love Llandudno, try to get there at least a couple of times a year.

Absolutely love LLandudno. If you want some awesome scenic views, take the toll road that you get to next to the Grand Hotel next to the pier - it leads to the other beach.

Those roasties looked lovely. Llandudno was my mum and dads favourite holiday place in later life. We still need to take their ashes and spread them in the gardens on the Great Orme as that's where they loved to sit and enjoy the view.

Funny, we were there a couple months ago. Bin many times, but 1st time on the toll road round Orme. Fantastic views on stopping places. Half way there was a cafe with ample room away with bench/tables so you can have a picnic with your own food. Great end to the day in a car trip as it loops back to Llandudno. Cost, £5.

Wales is definitely a beautiful area.

I've never watched a video of yours but it was recommended to me. Im from Llandudno and it is a nice, safe place. I moved to England when I was 18 hope to move bacn one day - There is so much for an active and outdoorsy lifestyle which I miss.

Had a lovely time in Llandudno. At a local Tesco's we were told to visit the Little Dutch Pancake House in Conwy by a friendly checkout person. Well we really enjoyed it with the children, try there next time, good food (pancakes!) and a few things to see.

Great video as always. You brought back so many memories, I first went to Llandudno in 1981 and so remember the great orme tramway. I haven’t eaten lamb since I went there! I also went in the 90s with my late mum. It also has two coastlines. Thank you for bringing back so many memories. The snowdonia national park is beautiful as well.

Hello Jeremy and Cara. I love watching your videos! North Wales was our favorite place to visit on our last trip. My recommendation for you is to hike out to Angel Bay, your doggy will love the trail and at the end is a beautiful cove full of seals. Hope you enjoy! Tiffany

You three are adorable. Love your vids.

I love Llandudno, it's my favourite place in Wales. If you go again, take a ride on the vintage bus. It goes all round the Orme and the driver tells you all about the royal goats and Alice in Wonderland etc.

Absolutely love Llandudno, spent many happy times as a child there, so glad to see you made it there. I have to say though, my very favourite Welsh seaside town is Barmouth, hope you check it out one day!

It's nice to see you enjoying the elements of a very traditional British seaside holiday. I'm not sure how common it is for all of these to survive in one place these days, as so many traditional resorts are in decline, so glad that you got to experience and enjoy something so quintessentially British.

Llandudno is a beautiful town to visit. I have been going there every year for the past 5 years on weekend visits during the summer months. I usually go there by train though from here in the West Midlands. I last visited there in August and the weather was really hot.

llangollen and surrounding areas are awesome 😊

I love your videos so much.The scenery is always gorgeous & your enthusiasm is contagious.❤️

🐑 Yay! You got to Wales 😉 🐑

Great video, as always. So much to see in the UK - more than you could do in a lifetime.

Would recommend also checking out the west shore beach in Llandudno, I love it there

My home town. If I knew you were here I'd have come and said hello.

You have to visit Portmerion

It's so lovely to watch you two. Just spent the afternoon searching for RU-vidrs trying British food and not one of them ventured out of London. PLEASE tell your fellow RU-vid nomads to get out and about. Love your videos.

So grateful for your wonderful videos! 🙏 I visited three places in Wales this summer: Llangollen, Caernarfon and Conwy. Now I want to to go to Llandudno! 😅

Loved this video !! We were there 5 years ago but only for the day . All my paternal heritage is from North Wales and we were visiting a cousin in Conwy . Thank you for your wonderful videos !!

Blessed for this to be on my doorstep, guys fishing on the pier for mackerel as it's the season , it's only shingle beach between the big and little orme , lovely Sandy beaches either side. In the summer if you sit on the beach all night ,you watch the sun go down in the sea by the big orme and come up again out the sea about three hours later over by the little orme. Friggin magical😍

I was in Llundudno only there a week ago! A good place to visit is Conwy only ten mins away, Conwy Castle is stunning and the small town has the best bakery with fresh cakes and pastries.I would also recomend Annie tea room which serves very traditional afternoon teas. Love your channel btw, x

The sheep grazing on the grass, saves mowing it, that's for sure.

Aww so nice that you guys came to North Wales! I’m not too far from Llandudno. So glad you enjoyed yourselves! There are so many other great places to explore in the area.

One of my Favourite places, Love going there, As we only Hour & a bit drive away, We do Quite often, Great Vlog👍

Beaumaris on Anglesey is well worth a visit, with the old Jail, Castle and courthouse.

There is a restaurant at red warf bay on the isle of angelsy, north Wales you should definitely try out..... North Wales has so much beauty..... I'm so glad you got to experience it❤

Enjoyed it.

The best place to eat in Llandudno is the Cottage Loaf.

I visited in June for the first time loved it.

I was so pleased to see you had done a video of Llandudno I lived there is a teenager for 5-years and have many many thought of as you were walking around the town and going up on the tram you thought it was windy the day you I have been up there on days where you cannot even open a car door for your viewers you can actually drive round it and up if you don't want to go on so beautiful been at the top if you are lucky you can even see as far as Liverpool hope you enjoyed your time in Wales and the rest.

Beaumaris, penrhyn castle, snowdonia llanberis is a nice place

Llandudno has two beaches, the rocky North Shore where you were and the stunning sandy West Shore beach which is by far the better of the two beaches, it's on an estuary where the Conwy river meets the sea so the tide goes out an awful long way, I live a couple of miles from Llandudno and love running around the Great Orme, it's bigger than most people realise as a full lap is 5.5 miles, glad you enjoyed it though, Llandudno is a lovely town. I'd highly recommend you go to Llanberis in Snowdonia which is at the foot of Snowdon, the highest mountain in England and Wales, there is a train which goes all the way up to the summit so I think that would be amazing for you to do, unfortunately they don't allow dogs though, but I love the Mountain Railway, it uses a rack and pinion track to literally pull the train up the mountainside, there's also a café at the summit which cost £6M to build so you can have a cup of tea and a cake when you get to the top!

Nice film 👌 its s great place to visit 👍 enjoyed watching as ee haven't been for years

Thanks for reminding me of the Great Orme. I went there with my parents when I was about 10 and I'd completely forgotten about it! If you're ever passing Cambridge UK, we'd LOVE to show you around!

I go to llandudno regularly. I stay at the imperial 😀 and go to the theatre! I love it

Bronze Age Mines on Great Orme worth a visit in future lot people visit great Orme don't realise these are here. Original covered up with spoil after excavations it unveiling this amazing heritage, not many Bronze age sites in UK

My home town!!! ❤

The dog friendly cruising boats around puffin island are also great to do if you get a chance.... Family run and owned boats and great information about the local sea life

You guys need to visit Portmerion you will love it

Llandudno is great. Recommend getting to Beaumaris on Anglesey also. There’s quite a few things to visit there and Beaumaris itself has some interesting shops and good food

Looks a FAB place

You 2 are really entertaining

I just travelled to the UK in October. I got to tour around Scotland and Ireland, but I could not fit in Wales, sadly. I can't wait to get back and see where my paternal grandfather came from in North Wales (Cymru) and brought my surname to America!

The other side of the Orem is a lovely sandy beach….went there a few weeks ago and spent hours with the kids catching crabs in the rock pools. ( the tide was miles out) we had a great time, it was nearly dark when we left the beach. Great video 😊

Just down the road from Llandudno Conwy is a must visit. But really any of the major medieval castles - Caernarfon, Harlech or Beaumaris on Anglesey are particularly good. Anglesey in general is a lovely place but I'd recommend spending a few days there and travelling around.

There is a great coastal drive from here called marine drive which takes you to the great orme.

Love Llandudno! We go there a few times a year with the dog - he just loves running about on the Great Orme! You should have visited the King's Head pub at the bottom of the tramway. A great dog-friendly pub that also serves fantastic food.

You have to go to Llangollen. Quite simply the most quaint and beautiful town in europe . It has .... Steam trains Horse drawn boat rides A castle An abbey The panorama The victorian promanade Paragliding Mountain biking Rock climbing Beautiful indeoendant shops Amazing places to eat

I’d highly recommend going to Cardigan in Wales. Probably one of the nicest sandy beaches the UK has to offer.

Great fun to follow your journey. Where on earth do you get your energy from?.

Grandparents and Aunt lived there for years... very hilly for their age though - flat right across from the Orme tram. Llandudno was cool though, good amusement arcade on pier and good road links on the Expressway to Manchester and the North West.

You would love St Fagans living museum, it's amazing

Not sure of you've seen it but castle coch in cardiff is worth a look of you head back to Cardiff. Its a modern medieval fantasy castle and has been used as a film set

1:54, That's more Alice Cooper than Alice in Wonderland.

The The National Slate Museum in Llanberis is a great place to visit

Anglesey!! Go to Newbourough beach and Beaumaris for sure. :)
