At the northern end of Aberystwyth promenade, Constitution Hill rises dramatically from the sea, providing spectacular and uninterrupted views of the town, Cardigan Bay, and on a clear day 26 mountain peaks spanning much of the length of Wales.

The most relaxing way to enjoy this majestic panorama is to travel by train on the longest funicular electric cliff railway in Britain, which has been transporting visitors to the summit since opening in 1896.

The recently refurbished summit train station has just been completed, providing much better protection from the elements and updating the structure to ensure a better visitor experience.

Once at the summit visitors can experience the views afforded by the one of the world's largest camera obscuras, which offers a bird's eye view of 1000 square miles of land and seascape.

Aside from these two technological masterpieces there are fascinating historical displays, a kids play area, a well-stocked gift shop, and a cafe selling delicious home-made snacks.

With such a combination of attractions, Constitution Hill offers a great day out for all. To find out more about the Cliff Railway or any of our other attractions, please feel free to call us on 01970 617642 and we will endeavour to answer any questions you may have.

A quick history of the Aberystwyth Cliff Railway:

The Aberystwyth Cliff Railway opened in 1896 and operated on a water balance system until electrification in 1921.

The unique design of the undulating track and tilted carriages is the work of George Croydon Marks, a man who played a key role in several projects during the golden age of funicular construction, and later made his name in politics as Lord Marks the liberal peer.

The carriages are hauled to the summit at a stately 4 miles per hour, and are powered by a powerful motor and high-tensile steel cables supported by a sophisticated electronic safety system.

In the mid-section of the journey the railway is in a deep cutting, where 12,000 tons of rock was excavated to allow the winding footpath to cross overhead on a series of bridges.

Constitution Hill was the Victorian predecessor of our modern-day theme parks and is still amongst the most popular attractions in the area.

The visitors to the Victorian 'Luna Park' accessed the hilltop recreation area via the cliff railway and a century later it is still possible to retrace the steps of our ancestors on this funicular steeped in history.

To find out more about the Aberystwyth Cliff Railway come and visit us, we're open throughout the year. There's no need to book in advance, just pop up to the ticket office, and hop onboard. With trains running every few minutes, you can let the train take you to one of the best views in Wales.

If you have any questions, please call us on 01970 617642, we look forward to hearing from you.

Fairy Glen Gorge

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A place that I have wanted to visit for such a long time after seeing it on my social media was the Fairy Glen Wales. It reminded me of the equally as stunning Devil's Pulpit in Scotland.

To me, it looked like something that only existed in the pages of a storybook. Plus, the folklore and poems about this place all make it seem like the stuff of fairytales!

A mystic place where sprites and faeries live amongst toadstools and only appear under the moonlight.

But, as they say, seeing is believing and this magical Fairy Glen Gorge is real. It's tucked away, waiting for you to discover it near Betws-y-Coed.

However, I will warn you now. The walk to get to this place is anything but a daydream. It's fairly steep and slippy. But, it is SO worth the effort to see it for yourself!

Here's my definitive and honest guide for visiting the Fairy Glen Gorge, entry fees and what to expect on the walk down there.

What is the Fairy Glen Wales?

The Fairy Glen, or Ffos Anoddun in Welsh, is a secluded gorge and beauty spot that lies on the Conwy River.

It's located just two miles from the tourist village of Betws-y-Coed and near Beaver Bridge. You can only access it by walking on private land off the A470 road.

The reason why this place is so beautiful and has attracted tourists for years is because it's a dramatic scene that looks like a painting.

Imagine babbling cascades and river rapids flowing through a narrow emerald cavern that's framed by trees of the forest.

Doesn't that sound like something from a fantasy world? It's honestly breathtaking.

But, what makes this place even more mystical is the folklore and stories that surround the gorge. They all speak of faeries, sprites, toadstools, moonlight and magic!

Legends of the Fairy Glen Gorge

Like many places with Celtic history in the UK, there are beautiful myths of the fae and magical creatures that are rumoured to live here!

It's what makes this place so famous and it's mystical vibe draws visitors to it every year.

The famous writer, Wilhelmina Stitch, wrote a poem about the Fairy Glen all the way back in 1925. She spoke of how she "waits and waits, to see the fairy men."

Even today, this scenic cavern never fails to inspire writers, artists, photographers and dreamers alike!

Leila Sen wrote this really lovely piece and I think it describes this glen perfectly;

"On mossy mound where toadstools grow, They dance in moonlight, row on row, To music from the purling brook Where Conwy dreams in secret nook. Strange moonlight whisperings thru the wood Where ancient golden beech have stood And drowsed, thru drifting times of yore, Steeped deep in mystic myth and lore."

The full poem is such a great read before you head down to the gorge on your trip!

Where is the Fairy Glen Wales?

The Fairy Glen can be found just two miles away from the tourist hub of Betws-y-Coed and its one of the top attractions in the area! It will take you around 10 minutes to drive from the village.

It's easily accessed via the main A5 Betws Road with a small diversion turning off on the A470. So, it's not a big drive out and makes a great addition to any Snowdonia itinerary.

This gorge is located on private land, so you won't see any official tourist signs pointing you in the direction of the Fairy Glen.

But, just look out for the Fairy Glen Hotel B&B sign on a tight corner of the road!

There is a Google Map Pin and it will take you to the car park to start your walk down to the gorge.

The SatNav you need to use for the Fairy Glen Hotel is LL24 0SH. Also, try plugging in the Afon Gwyn Country House as the turning is right next to there!

If you're not planning on driving, you can also walk to the hotel from Betws-y-Coed. You'll access the start of the hike the same way.

Where to park for the Fairy Glen

The owners have a dedicated car park that they have kindly organised. So, you can safely park up while you go on your walk.

As soon as you drive onto the hotel grounds, there will be signs showing you where to park.

This is a rather small car park and spaces do get filled up quickly if it's the peak season. So, you may have to come back another time if the car park is full.

Luckily, when I visited quite late in the afternoon in September, there were only two cars there! Mine and one other.

They do charge a small parking fee of £1 a car to park. As well as a small entry fee for the hike.

Fairy Glen opening times

As far as I can tell, the Fairy Glen is open all year and 24 hours a day. The entry fee runs on an honesty box system that you can easily pay at the gate if you visit after normal hours.

But, if you're planning an out of hours trip, it may be a good idea to contact the owners first to double check. You will be walking on their private land.

During the day, the owners usually collect the money from you personally and are open to having a friendly chat! It's a nice touch.

They have a home here and there are hotel guests too. So, remember to respect the area and if you do visit early doors, make sure to keep the noise levels low.

Does the Fairy Glen in Wales cost money to visit?

Yes. This is an attraction and beauty spot located on private land. The friendly owners are kind enough to allow you to visit but charge a small fee.

The owners have worked hard to make sure there is a car park, safety signs and facilities like picnic tables to allow for visitors.

The charge is £1 to park your car if you arrive in one and then an additional £1 per adult to walk down to the gorge. It's 50p per child.

The entry fee is taken in cash only, so come prepared with change.

I read so many negative and nasty reviews about the owners for charging a fee, it actually made me quite angry. I've also read the news articles that have added fuel to the fire.

The owners do come out and have a little chat with you. It's not always to hound you or 'check you've paid'. I had a lovely chat with the lady who owns it and really couldn't see where these 'toll troll' comments came from!

But, then again, I did my research before I visited and was happily prepared to pay the fee with cash in hand.

It's not much money to charge and your contribution helps towards the upkeep of the facilities. But, more than that, it keeps their business and livelihood afloat.

I shouldn't have to say this. However, I feel I must...

If you're not prepared to pay the fee, don't be nasty about it or make a horrible complaint about the owners on Tripadvisor. Just don't visit, it's that simple.

You wouldn't demand to be let into a National Trust property for free and insult the volunteer staff if you weren't.

Most people would be quite happy to spend three, four, or even five pounds on a coffee. So, why not pay a couple of quid to support a local business and enjoy the Fairy Glen's magic? It's an experience you will never forget!

If the owners, for any reason, are not there. Just be honest and simply put your entry fee in the box they have at the entry gate.

How long is the Fairy Glen walk from the car park?

There are a couple of walking routes you can take to get to the Fairy Glen Gorge from the car park.

There is a 'scenic' route which will take you firstly next to the River Conwy and then take you through the forest and down to the gorge.

Or, you can cut out of the river walk and just head straight down to the gorge itself!

You'll see a fork in the road with a sign that allows you to make your choice.

I personally took the scenic route and it took me around 25-30 minutes one way to get down to the gorge. But, I am a painfully slow walker and stopped to take lots of photos.

If you take the shorter route, or you're a fast walker, I'd say the walk will take you around 15-20 minutes tops.

Both of these walking routes include a trek down a rather steep, uneven and rocky staircase to reach the gorge. So, this is the thing that will take the most time to walk up and down.
Personally, I would plan at least an hour for your visit. This allows enough time to walk to the Fairy Glen Gorge and back!
What to expect on the walk down

Okay, so I want to be completely honest. Although this walk is short, it is a little tricky in places. Especially as you're heading down the steps to the glen!

At first, the path is quite flat and well laid out. It's a well beaten gravel path that will take you through to the banks of the Conwy River and then through the lush forest. This part is extremely scenic and pretty easy.

The hard part comes when you need to walk down to the cavern via the rocky gorge steps!

These aren't like flat and even cement steps. They are uneven, steep and rocky stepping stones that allow you a route to get down to the gorge.

If it has been raining, like it did before my visit, these can be extremely slippy. So, my biggest tip would be not to rush and take your time.

As you walking down, most of these steps are next to the cavern walls. So, you can use them for support if you need it.

I'm not going to lie to you, I did struggle quite a bit and it took me ages to get up and down! Mostly as I was worried about slipping and breaking my camera (haha, priorities).

But, I'm so happy and proud I made the effort as the views down here are incredible.

What to expect when you are down here

Although the photos of this place are stunning, nothing is as good as seeing this place with your own eyes.

It was like entering a fantasy land or something that belonged in Tolkien's Legendarium!

You'll see the river rapids cascading through the emerald gorge and the storybook scene makes you realise just how enchanting this place is.

If the sunlight is breaking through the trees, it just adds even more magic. I could have spent hours enjoying this place and capturing photos!

There are, again, more boulders at the bottom of the gorge. So, it can be quite hard to find your footing. Well, it was for me anyway.

But, there are plenty of places to enjoy the views and get a good look at the waterfalls.

Unfortunately, I didn't see any of the faeries, sprites or mythical creatures on my visit. But, you know, it was during the day. You may get lucky though.

Top tips before you visit & things to bring with you!

Bring cash with you to pay the parking and entry fees! I'd recommend pound coins over notes incase there is no option of change.

Make sure to wear a good pair of ankle supporting shoes. The walk down definitely requires it! If you usually require or like to use walking sticks I'd use them for the steps.

That also goes for hiking gear. Wales does see a lot of rain so make sure to bring a waterproof coat.

You will need to bring a water bottle with you as there are no shops at the site.

Make sure to stick to the pathways that have been laid out for you. I wouldn't veer off path as it's a gorge which could have unexpected steep drops. There are lots of safety signs warning you but better to be safe than sorry!

Photographers may struggle to set up a tripod down here as there are lots of boulders at the bottom of the steps. But, I'm sure you'll find a way if you wanted those fancy long exposure captures - even if it means holding it in place.

There are picnic benches near the top banks of the river if you wanted to spend more time here. So, you could pack a picnic and have a lovely lunch in nature.

There are no public toilets available to use so make sure you use the loo before you go!

The Fairy Glen Wales is dog friendly but your fluffy friends must be kept on a lead at all times.

Looking for more things to do in and around Betws-y-Coed?

Betws-y-Coed is one of the most charming villages in the North of Wales.

Imagine quaint Victorian houses with cafés and shops amongst rolling hills and the magical Gwydir forest!

You really can't miss a stroll down the High Street and crossing over the postcard-worthy Pont-y-Pair bridge. Here you'll find the waterfalls that bubblike like a cauldron!

About the Trail

Glyndŵr's Way is an 135 mile (217 Km) long National Trail meandering through the open moorland, rolling farmland, woodland and forest of mid-Wales. Starting in Knighton and ending in Welshpool, the Trail is named after Owain Glyndŵr', Prince of Wales and Medieval Welsh nationalist leader who organised a rebellion against the English king, Henry IV in 1400.

You don't have to walk the Trail in one go to enjoy the best it has to offer. You can enjoy it as a series of day walks.

Exploring the Trail

Anyone who is reasonably fit can walk Glyndŵr's Way, although it is very hilly, often dropping into valleys and ascending hills several times in a day. You should be aware that it crosses country that is sometimes rough and remote. The ability to navigate by compass will be very welcome if it is misty.

Glyndŵr's Way can be enjoyed at any time of the year. Summer brings long and (sometimes) hot days but some people prefer the wild flowers of spring or the spectacular colours of autumn.

In winter, mid Wales under a cover of snow is a spectacular sight. However, one must keep in mind the Welsh climate, which can see rain at any time, and the fact that some accommodation is closed in the winter. Therefore, it is important to carry appropriate clothing. Remember also that there is limited daylight in the winter (only about eight hours in mid-winter).

The Trail starts at the Town Clock in Knighton and ends at the canal in Welshpool. This is the way most people walk it, you can go the other way, but navigating will be more of challenge.

What is special about the Trail?

Glyndŵr's Way takes you to some of the finest landscape features in Wales including the tranquil Radnorshire Hills, the shores of the Clywedog Reservoir and heather clad Plynlimon. There are spectacular views over Cadair Idris, Lake Vyrnwy, the Cambrian Mountains and Y Golfa. The route reaches its highest point at Foel Fadian (1530ft/510m) from which on a clear day views stretch out along the majestic Dulas valley to Machynlleth and the sea.

This Trail takes you through a real farming landscape. One of the major attractions of the Trail is the joy of walking through a working land, there is nothing artificial about this landscape.

Abbeycwmhir Hall is a Grade II* listed Victorian Gothic historic house.

Built in 1834 by Thomas Wilson, the great Victorian improver, the house was doubled in size by the Philips family in 1869, who then added the billiards room in 1894.

Paul and Victoria Humpherston restored the house and gardens over 10 years and their work has been featured on a number of TV documentaries.

They now offer tours to individuals, couples or groups conducted by themselves in a unique family atmosphere.

Each of the 52 rooms contain their original features. These include 23 fire places, rococo and stained glass ceilings, a Maw & Co tiled floor and original slate surfaces in the formal domestic areas and the cellarage.

The house bursts with innovative and creative interior design ideas complimented by thousands of collectable items, all used as furnishings.

They include, enamel signs, clocks, phonographs and radios, a boys & girls adventure story library, toys and vehicles, the Abbeycwmhir art collection, and items related to the Arthurian legend.

The gardens and grounds have also been restored for visitors to enjoy between the months of April to October inclusive. Many Victorian features remain, or have been uncovered, through the restoration. Such features include a 1.5 acre walled garden, lawns and terraces, 4 courtyards, a lake and waterfall and some splendid mixed woodland. The grounds overlook the abbey, and give wonderful views along "The Long Valley".

Christmas at The Hall is a magical time. All 52 rooms are decorated for the festive season from 1st November each year for a true Victorian Christmas. The Hall is also a favoured tours venue for visiting Car Clubs.

Tours of all 52 rooms, conducted by the owners, are available daily on a pre-booked basis. Individuals, couples, small or larger groups may book for the tours of around two hours commencing at 10.30am, 2pm or 7pm. The price for the two hour tour is £16 per head. The price per head for groups of 8 or more is £14 per head. The entrance fee includes full access to the 12 acre grounds.

Refreshments are available at the end of each tour. Catering, in the form of finger buffets, knife and fork cold buffets, or hot meals can also be booked for groups of 10 or more touring the property. There is ample parking space for cars or coaches.

Alternatively, the gardens (open between April and October inclusive) may be visited separately at a fee of £5 per head. This fee includes access to the remarkable Garden Room.

During the Summer months there is a retro theme runnng through the entertainment area.

Closed until further notice

It is with great sadness that following the latest government advice we declare this zoo to be closed for the foreseeable future as from today. Being situated in a beautiful little holiday village on the West coast of Wales, we do not want to encourage the unnecessary movement of people around the country, which could spread the corona-virus and overwhelm our rural health service.

This is going to be a difficult time for us as we rely on ticket sales, experience sales and donations to pay for the huge running costs of this establishment, but in the past three years since we took over the zoo (three years next month, in fact) we have not been strangers to difficult times.

We have an amazing, dedicated team here that will do their best to carry on caring for our 300+ animals in the best way they can. We will have to reduce to a skeleton crew as staff go into self isolation and we will have to get very creative in how we raise funds for animal feed and the inevitable medical bills. If anybody has a surplus of fruit and vegetables then please feel free to drop them off at our gate, should you be able to.

With your support we can get through this. We will do our best to keep you entertained with pictures, videos, live-streams and updates on how our animals are doing but, now more than ever, we need your donations. Please renew your season ticket, should you need to, look at our animal adoption schemes or book an animal experience for later on in the summer. This is also a time when we can get on with some serious building works so if you would like to make a sizeable donation and sponsor an enclosure then please let us know.

We have confidence that we will still be here when restrictions are lifted, but it is only the overwhelming support we have had in the past for all that we do here and all that we are trying to achieve that gives us hope.

We hope that you all stay safe, stay at home, stay healthy and we will see you later in the Summer with happy smiling faces.

Hanes Aberteifi is a charitable organisation registered with the Civic Trust and the Civic Trust for Wales. It had for some time been looking for the premises in which to establish a Heritage Centre, and in 1996 acquired the lease of the ground floor of this 18th century warehouse.

After many months of hard work, with local tradesmen and members of Hanes Aberteifi giving their time and skills freely, the Heritage Centre was opened in June 1997 by the local member of Parliament Cynog Dafis.

The Heritage Centre is run by a small management team who report to the executive of Hanes Aberteifi. An exhibition sub-committee masterminds all temporary exhibitions and the centre manager supervises these and provides a season long programme of Living History events, fundraisers and craft workshops.

During the height of the summer season more volunteers come in to help the manager, again all giving their time freely and cheerfully! Without this generosity the organisation could not exist, as we do not receive any external funding. It is for this reason that regrettably we do have to charge for entrance to the exhibition.

Cardigan Heritage Centre is housed in a grade 2 listed building. It was erected in 1745 and subsequently bought by the Davies brothers in 1785. They were heavily involved in the export of slate and the import of limestone. Seven lime kilns were built at the rear of the building.

Later one of the warehouse's main uses was as a sail making loft which was established upstairs. As the town and port of Cardigan prospered so did the brothers, their magnificent home overlooked the Heritage Centre, and its now the Grosvenor hotel. However as the fortunes of the port declined the warehouse gradually became redundant.

On show at the Centre are artefacts and information on the history of Cardigan from Norman times to the present day and all you need know about Cardigan Castle.

General Information:

Changing exhibitions on local themes

Shop selling books and locally made crafts

Riverside tea room.

Ceredigion

A coastal path that links two National Trails of Wales. Heading northward from Cardigan - the junction with the Pembrokeshire Coast Path - the Ceredigion Coast Path extends to the Dyfi Estuary National Nature Reserve at Ynyslas, a stone's throw from Glyndwr's Way which links Machynlleth with Knighton on the Wales-England border.

On its route it visits the resorts of Aberporth, Llangrannog, New Quay - linked to Dylan Thomas, Aberaeron, Aberystwyth and Borth. It crosses Heritage Coastline and National Trust lands, looking out over the UK's first Marine Heritage Coast and the Cardigan Bay Special Area of Conservation. Parts of the route can be quite strenuous. At New Quay one of the short options on the Dylan Thomas Trail starts at the harbour.

Opened on 4 July 2008 the Ceredigion Coast Path is largely the work of Ramblers' volunteers along with the County Council. The 500,000 route between the Dyfi and Teifi estuaries includes 16 miles of entirely new footpath, 17 new bridges, more than 200 steps, kissing gates, stiles, and even a new path cut into the cliffside from Cwmtydu to Llangrannog. The route is now fully open, except for one section, and the first website below includes a free downloadable guide (on the second weblink direct). An official guidebook is available from Northern Eye and Cicerone also offer a 2014 guide. The actual Ceredigion Coast Path section between Mwnt and Cardigan has been unavailable due to legal proceedings: see the websites for an alternative.

Buried deep under the mountains of Snowdonia lies an extraordinary story: a rock revolution that shaped the look and feel of the world as we know it. A way of life which built communities and defined generations of families in North Wales.

The story of slate began 500 million years ago, with deposits of mud and clay on an ancient seabed. Slate was used by Romans in the first century AD and by medieval kings to shore up their defence. But it wasn't until the advent of the Industrial Revolution that demand for the mighty grey rock really exploded. At its peak, the slate industry in Wales employed an army of 17,000 men.

By the end of the 19th century they were extracting half a million tonnes of slate per year and their hand-split wares were being exported to all four corners of the earth.

Llechwedd's Slate Mountain Adventure guides you on a truly unique experience through the historically significant quarry. Starting with an exhilarating ex-military truck ride to the highest peaks of the 2,000 acre site, you'll visit the vast quarries of Maenofferen, Diffwys Casson and more and discover how they are a key part of the bid to make the North West Wales Slate Landscape a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Along the way, make sure you have your cameras handy as you'll take in the breathtaking views of South Snowdonia including Snowdon itself, Moel Siabod, Blaenau Ffestiniog's own Moelwyn mountain range and the Irish Sea beyond.

After a quick pitstop back at the main visitor centre, you're guide will lead you 500 feet below the ground on Europe's steepest cable railway into the Llechwedd Deep Mine. During your journey through these cavernous chambers - all hand carved across the centuries - you'll follow some of the individual stories of the miners, combined with personal experiences from your guide, culminating in an award-winning, emotional light and sound display at our underground lake.

Discover the unique history of Llechwedd - book your experience now!

About Us
Cardigan Bay Marine Wildlife Centre is a great place to visit when you are in New Quay; learn how to spot marine wildlife such as dolphin, porpoise and Atlantic grey seals from our brilliant team of volunteers.

In 2016 we celebrated our 20th year of working in marine conservation and held a special event in New Quay with our World Record Attempt!

BBC star Iolo Williams joined us and 335 volunteers to create the world's largest human superpod in the shape of a dolphin! #Superpod.

Our staff team are dedicated and work with the local community to raise awareness of our fantastic marine wildlife.

We operate a popular visitor centre and work with Dolphin Survey Boat Trips to collect data on the bottlenose dolphins of Cardigan Bay and other marine mammals that are regularly spotted, such as harbour porpoise and Atlantic grey seals and more unusual species such as basking sharks and sunfish.

As well as conducting our own research, we can support university students with their own research.

You can hire out our Discovery Room - another great way of supporting our work. You can read more about our visitor centre here.

The most highly-awarded British cheese, Celtic Promise, is a Caerphilly type washed-rind cheese with a slightly moist, pink rind. Soft and buttery as it matures it develops a slightly pungent aroma and has a delicate, mild flavour creating a delicious contrast with the rind. It is supple, smooth, spicy and aromatic. Celtic Promise is considered a 'table cheese' by some but it is also good to cook with when a strong, creamy flavour is required.

Susan Lomas, wrote a book called 'Family Holidays in a Motorhome' which was all about her adventures in a motorhome that was hired from Motorhome Freedom, a motorhome rental website. The holiday was in October 2014 in the UK. It was interesting to note that it had been rather wet in England that Autumn and Susan and her family had been plagued by mud. As we know most quad bike events tend to be out in the countryside and much of the parking tends to be on grass car parks. Because motorhomes tend to rather heavy and are just two wheel drive they do tend to get stuck rather badly. Here are some ideas to avoid getting stuck in the mud:

Use snow chains, yes indeed, although they are designed to work in snow, snow chains do a pretty good job in mud too. If you suspect a field to be muddy, put them on before you enter the field

Carry some planks of wood with you and drive onto them before you park, other items that may work well too are plastic trays, offcuts of carpet and rubber door mats

Don't spin the wheels too fast when trying to get out, use forward and reverse gears to create a rocking motion and get your passengers to push in time - and stand out of the way of flying mud!

If all else fails try to find somebody with a Landrover or a Tractor to tow you out of the mud. This is highly preferable to getting another 'normal' car stuck in the mud 🙂

Visiting quad bike show is great fun as you can get involved with any after show parties there might be. We have had some great times in The Malvern Hills sitting around campfires and drinking Herefordshire cider until the early hours. It's a real joy to be able to walk back to your motorhome, lock the door behind you and snuggle into warm comfortable bed without having to worry about driving anywhere. Some motorhomes have garage areas large enough to accommodate a quad bike, but for the majority of us, a towbar and trailer is the best solution.

'I'll sleep when I'm dead'.

This is a common phrase many people proclaim when they have a busy schedule, but studies are increasingly finding that without a good night's sleep, you life will in fact be shortened. Even the most hardcore quad-biker has to chill out sometimes.

We spend almost half our lives asleep, yet many people still skimp when it comes to investing in high quality bedding. On the other hand, an investment in a good mattress is an investment in your health, physically and mentally speaking. We all know that a good mattress enables us to sleep better, and this comes with many benefits, including something s simple as being more active and energized throughout the day. New research by Amerisleep.com is also finding that having a high quality mattress and getting some more shut-eye will help your loose weight, it drastically improves your memory, reduces stress and anxiety and ultimately it will extend your life.

With evidence like this, it's hard to believe that people will still go for the lowest quality option with mattresses, especially when your life is on the line! Research also indicates that a few changes in your routine can help you get the most out of your rest. Useful tips like leaving your electronics and any work away form the mattress will help you relax easier and get the most out of your sleeping time!

All terrain vehicles are rarely seen on roads as they aren't road legal in most countries. ATVs are vehicles that have wide low pressure tyres, usually three or four and are driven by one person and steered with the use of a handlebar.

ATV motocross and off road races are a popular sporting activity. The racing versions of ATVs can be built for a variety of terrains thanks to their robust design. ATVs can be built for desert racing, ice racing, and cross country off road racing.

ATVs can be driven with ease in deserts. Multi activity holidays in Dubai or Egypt include a trip to the desert on ATVs. An ATV also known as a Dune Buggy can glide over sand dunes with ease, something that no other road vehicle can hope to do!

ATVs can also be designed to be amphibious. Amphibious ATVs usually have six wheels rather than four or three wheels more commonly found on land ATVs. This type of ATVs are produced by fewer manufacturers than land based ATVs.

A number of companies such as Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha, and Suzuki manufacture All Terrain Vehicles. ATVs are mainly used for recreational purposes.

Many people choose the option of renting cars while on holiday instead of relying on public transport, so there is usually no dearth of car hire companies in popular holiday hot spots. Renting cars when abroad makes sense for a variety of reasons, but to avoid disappointment it is important to choose the right vehicle.

There could be a variety of cars available to rent in your holiday destination. Whether the car you choose is the right one for you depends on your home work. For example, if you want to hire a car in Malaga, it is necessary to do some research before you choose your vehicle.

It is important to do some research about the places you plan to visit and to consider not only the number of people travelling, but also the amount of luggage you will need to carry to different places. It is also important to consider the terrain and the quality of roads while choosing a vehicle as being stuck with a broken down car is the last thing you want while on holiday.

Choosing the right car is as important as choosing the right car rental company. A reliable and trustworthy car rental company is more likely to provide good vehicles with the proper paper work in place.

The candle-making business at Cilgwyn was started by Inger and Brian John when they moved to the area from County Durham. Inger has always been the candle-maker, and Brian has provided the moral support as well as humping tonnes of wax about and building display stands for craft fairs etc. Partnership is the name of the game.

At first, the business was run from a lock-up garage across the yard from the house, but in 1982 the garage was demolished and a new building put up in its place. This building now houses the workshop and the mini-museum downstairs and the gallery upstairs. Space is very tight, and there is only room for one person to make candles at a time.

The essential items of candle-making equipment in the workshop are a boiler for holding water and molten wax, a simple rack which can be lifted up by a pulley when candles need to be trimmed, and lots of metal coat-hangers from the dry cleaners. There is also a small heating ring for melting small quantities of wax in a saucepan. That is all! Not exactly high-tech, but candle-making is a craft, and the candles which Inger makes are successful and very beautiful because she has a steady hand, an instinct for colour combinations, and an encyclopaedic knowledge of how molten wax behaves.

In the early days of the business, Inger sold most of her dipped candles through the trade, supplying to craft shops and gift shops all over the UK and further afield. Gradually, however, the workshop began to attract visitors, and after many years of building up the business over 10,000 people call at the workshop each year.

The Pembrokeshire Candle Centre is now one of the prime visitor attractions in North Pembrokeshire, and most of the annual output of candles is sold straight from the premises to new visitors and faithful "regulars" who call again and again and again.......

One of the most beautiful things about candles is that they are meant to be destroyed. And once they have brightened up somebody's life and have faded away, they need to be replaced!

The hamlet of Cilgwyn lies in a sheltered hollow at the entrance to Cwm Gwaun and beneath the rocky peak of Carn Ingli -- right at the heart of Bluestone Country.

Inger John provides a warm welcome to all visitors, who can see hand-dipped candles being made without any mechanical aids. Her candles are created with unique graded colours and with exotic scents including specially blended essential oils.

The workshop is a real "Aladdin's Cave" packed with candles of all shapes and sizes; most are made on the premises, and others are imported from all over the world. Also in stock are candlesticks of many types, snuffers, lanterns, oil burners, accessories, candle-making kits, and books of local interest. We try to keep a constant eye on the latest trends, so there is always something new when you next call.

Next to the workshop is Britain's smallest museum, with fascinating displays relating to the history and traditions of candle-making right back to Roman times.

Incorporated into our sales area are some larger and unique items designed for enlightenment -- candlesticks, candelabra, wall sconces, floor-standing candle holders, and specially-commissioned items from local craftsmen and artists.
2019 Opening times: Easter - end of October, 11 am - 5 pm, Monday to Friday. Closed on Saturdays and Sundays, unless we just happen to be open! Ring 01239-820470 to check.

The candle-making business at Cilgwyn was started by Inger and Brian John when they moved to the area from County Durham. Inger has always been the candle-maker, and Brian has provided the moral support as well as humping tonnes of wax about and building display stands for craft fairs etc.
