Gwynedd
Overview
The historic kingdom and modern-day county of Gwynedd is one of Wales’ largest and richest regions. Situated in the northernmost part of Wales and covering most of the Snowdonia National Park, Gwynedd is comprised largely of natural surrounds, such as the Llŷn Peninsula – considered to be one of the most unspoiled regions in the UK. However, Gwynedd offers much more than beautiful landscapes, and is also home to many towns and villages. Between them, these offer great shopping, fantastic culture and some truly unforgettable places to stay. Visit Gwynedd and you’ll soon see why this is one of Wales’ most popular tourist destinations.
