Wales

This is a guide to both the practicalities of travel in Wales and the country's cultural background. It recommends places to stay, eat and drink, not just in the main towns and resorts but also in the smallest villages of rural Wales. It also covers the varied landscapes from the rugged shores of Pembrokeshire to the peaks of Snowdonia, with accounts of historic sites from the massive castles of Edward I to the tiny chapels that nurtured Welsh Methodism. In addition, this guide discusses topics as diverse as the nationalist movement, Celtic folklore, and the choirs and rugby teams of the Glamorgan valleys.
