The Hidden Places of Wales is a beautifully illustrated
guide and explores the counties of Wales in a relaxed
narrative style. It contains a wealth of interesting
information on the history, the countryside, the towns and
villages and established visitor attractions, but also
focuses on promoting the lesser known places of interest and
places to stay, eat and drink.
Often referred to as the 'Red
Dragon', Wales is a country blessed with some of the most
dramatic landscapes in Britain. To the north lies Snowdonia,
a land of awe-inspiring mountains, wild moorlands and
enchanting lakes whilst further south the land is abundant
with deep valleys and vast forests. To the west the country
has a spectacularly varied coastline of cliffs, coves and
sandy beaches. Wales also has a rich cultural heritage full
of myths and legends founded on Celtic ancestry but has an
equally strong industrial past.
