LOCAL ACTIVITIES

Ceredigion is one of the wildest, least-populated parts of Britain; just 75,000 people live in 700 square miles. There is plenty of room to enjoy the country's 1,300 listed buildings, 13 conservation areas and 83 sites of special scientific interest. Aberystwyth, one of the main towns of Ceredigion, is a beautiful little sea-side town, nestling between three hills and the sea. It has a sea-front with two attractive beaches, castle ruins, a pier and a marina.

The character of Ceredigion remains essentially Welsh as Welsh is the native language of nearly two-thirds of the population and in daily use in commerce, administration, education, culture and leisure. Ceredigion is a county which gives you an insight into Welsh culture through its museums, castles, gardens, mills and houses. You will be also able to go back in time by visiting Wales's mines and railways of yesterday...

We live in a naturalist's paradise: bird-life is plentiful and the skies abound with rare red kites soaring above our valley. Apart from bird-watching, the area is also ideal for cycling, star-gazing and of course walking! And if you are interested in science or animals, we have what you are looking for.
