The Ultimate Destination – Short Breaks In UK
It is a simple matter to take short breaks in UK, this is because there is so much to see and so many different places to go. The history of this country alone makes virtually every city, town and village of some interest to someone. Fortunately, the UK is blessed with great roads and a perfectly working public transport system, so it is easy to get anywhere, anytime.
For the sake of this article we are going to talk about North Wales, it is right next door and is part of the UK. It is completely unique in that the people speak Welsh and a visitor who is unaccustomed to this language, might think they have arrived in another country when they try to get their tongue around the names.
One of the most beautiful places in North Wales is the Snowdonia National Park, Mount Snowdon is the highest peak in the UK, south of the Scottish highlands. And it is here that Sir Edmund Hillary prepared for is accent up Everest. It is the perfect place for hikers, climber, walkers, mountain bikers and worshipers of natures' beauty at its best.
You will also find the most beautiful beaches in the UK in north Wales, mostly on Anglesey Island, the large island at the top of Wales. Driving at a snails pace in Lligwy Beach will allow you to see the full beauty of this Green Coast awarded town, and for surfers the curlers of Black Rock Sands can be a joy to ride. This beach on the Llyn Peninsula has an incredible view of Cardigan Bay, and great rock pools and caves to explore when the tide is out.
A visit to Beaumaris Castle is a must and the medieval town of Beuamaris it quite beautiful. When they say it's all in a name, they mean it in relationship to this town. The name is derived from the French/Norman and it means beautiful marsh. The castle is from the era of King Edward I and it has murder slots (defense for the inner bailey), spy holes, a moat and a drawbridge. Work began on this castle in 1295, continued for 35 years and was never finished, not that you would know, because it is a technically perfect example of a castle of its time, and the best surviving example in the world.
