Who are we
We're an independent guide to the region, offering inspiration for days out and things to do, as well as practical guides, and listings for businesses so you can make the most of your time here.
Where is South Wales
We cover the region from Chepstow in the east across to Tenby in the west, and as far north as Brecon. Tenby is often described as being in West Wales, however as it's on the south coast and such an amazing town we wanted our guide to include it. We hope to eventually expand further west too, all the way to St Davids and the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.

History
If you're looking for history then South Wales has this in abundance. With around 100 castles here, either still standing or in ruins, you'll find hundreds of years of history in every direction. You can also explore the much more recent past taking in the heritage sites from the industrial Valleys, as well as Wales' national museums which are all free to enter.
Nature
From the sound of waves crashing against the cliffs to beaches of all shapes & sizes, the South Wales coast is a magical place for exploring, either for peaceful walks or exciting family trips. Heading inland you'll find rivers, waterfalls, mountains, rolling hills, and a National Park, providing an always-changing backdrop to enjoy days out.
