Wrexham

Wrexham is one of those idyllic locales that enjoys the best of both rural and urban life. As well as being the largest town in North Wales – with all the cultural, commercial and creative buzz one would expect from the borough’s administrative hub – it is surrounded by the most beautiful countryside, and a plethora of charmingly picturesque towns and villages.

What the town of Llangollen lacks in size, it certainly makes up for in enthusiasm. Once a centre for sheep farming and weaving, nature and wildlife still play a big part in this small Welsh town’s heritage. Llangollen’s solitary setting means it has retained much of its early magic, which is why it is now a popular spot for nature and history lovers alike.
