• I think Wales is one of those things like Skegness or Blackpool. It’s more for natives than it is for somebody to fly a thousand miles to see.

    It’s nice and all, and fairly unique within the UK, but it’s not that unique internationally. Most countries have a nice nature-y hilly bit. They don’t all have a bunch of soldiers with silly hats that pass out in summer.

    • I disagree, I lived in Ceredigion for a few years and would recommend it to anyone. I’m not saying it would be a good idea to put an all-inclusive hotel halfway up Cadair Idris but if I was a tourist to the UK Iooking for natural beauty it would be a decent choice of destination especially if you were going to drive up to Snowdonia and Anglesey later on.

      Also thanks to a certain famous film star investor there’s apparently Americans getting their first passport to see Wrexham (a town one of my Welsh friends previously tried to claim was in England to avoid taking responsibility) of all places!
