Our Top 20 Best Rural Welsh Getaways
For many people, Wales is the epitome of rural heaven.
After all, this is a country that’s characterised by vast stretches of green, sheep-dotted fields, pretty chocolate-box cottages, winding country lanes, and red kites swooping through huge skies.

To give you a tempting taste of life in rural Wales, we’ve put together a list of some of our favourite fresh-air-filled getaways.
As they say in Welsh, “mwynhau!” (enjoy!)
