Cheddar Gorge & Caves Car Park
Parking lot
👍 Great place to visit for a day out. You can pay to do the attractions, but the cliff top walk is free if you access it via the footpath near Lion’s Rock and come down via Jacob’s Ladder. Otherwise it’s £6.50 per adult to go up Jacob’s Ladder. There is parking available in the Gorge but this is typic...

Merthyr Mawr Nature Reserve

👍👍 Awesome beach once you get through the sand dunes, it took us the best part of an hour to get through the dunes from the car park, but we had a real slow 4 Yr old with us, I reckhghon its probably 30 minutes at a decent pace. Beach is huge when tide is out. Car Park was £5 for the day and can pay on...

Sgwd Isaf Clun-Gwyn
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Bloody hard walk and terrain, so much mud but the waterfalls are awesome, especially the one that you can go behind. Lots and lots of steps/stairs and slippery so make sure you are fully equipped. Took us about 5 hours but we spent lots of time at the falls

National Trust - The Kymin
Scenic spot
👍 Beautiful views across to Monmouth. A steep and narrow approach road makes access a modest challenge but once there it's a lovely quiet place. The memorial is interesting, but the house was still closed. Both appeared somewhat incongruous as they look like they should be by the sea, and not on top o...

👍👍 From my point of view Wales is a God's (Nature) own Country. It has some stunning views. I have been to Wales for 3-4 times and trust me its never disappoints me. A couple of days ago I visited Pen-y-Fan and it was just amazing and I didn't have words to describe it. One of the Best Places for Hikin...

Sgwd y Pannwr
Tourist attraction
👍👍 One of four waterfalls along a 3-4 hr walk. We stopped here and cooked lunch and brew a coffee whilst surrounded in nature. Incredibly beautiful place to walk around. The walk is incredibly challenging but worth it for all the views. Wear proper footwear and be prepared for steps. @momentsofiutd...

Bwlch Mountain
Tourist attraction
👍 Ample parking, just dodge the inquisitive sheep. They will watch you eat and stare out your dogs, but I managed to stroke my newest butty on the nose. 🐑 There's an ice cream van up there for your treats and coffee, views for days, and a few hiking routes with wind turbines in every direction, don't...

National Trust - Sugarloaf and Usk Valley
Scenic spot
👍👍 Steep single lane road, complete with hair pins to get to Glyn Tyrrel carpark. From there it is a not too difficult walk up to the base of the summit. The last part to the summit is steep but walkable. From there you can continue further along the ridge. About an hour from Glyn Tyrrel car park to th...

Fforest Fawr Car Park
Parking lot
😐 Great park and sculpture trail. Unfortunately there was a lot of litter including dog poop bags and the parking was a little tight. I did enjoy the bear sculpture where it looked like the baby bear ran into the wrong bit of the daddy bear for a cuddle

👍👍 Very interesting formation! I was stunned by how big it is and that you can actually climb to the top of it! 🧗 The area called the Waterfall Country is surely worth exploring - seems to be ideal for spending some quality romantic time here 🥰 Spacious carpark, a place for picnic, lots of beautifu...
