Nice vid but no mention of good watering holes a nice cold beer on a sunny day goes down well.😢

This has only just appeared in my stream! Aberaeron is our favourite place. We often drive up just for an ice cream (the Hive obviously!) Interesting finding more of the history of the place 🙂

I spent many summers in New Quay as a child - and the smell of fish and chips mixed with the salty tang of drying fishing nets will always remind me of those times.

Thank you for a jolly interesting tour. This is somewhere we've overlooked hitherto. But maybe we'll have a day out if the weather improves. I remember our son coming to the Urdd place many years ago when he was in primary school.

Next time you visit pop up stairs to the Craft of Hearts community centre on the first floor, we have a lots of bookable sessions where you can learn all sorts of crafts, we have dabble days where you can try anything from pyrography, jewellery making to everything mixed media, and so much more

My auntie moved to Aberystwyth 30 years ago when I was a little kid and we would go visit her a lot, I loved visiting Devil's Bridge and still have the disposable camera photos in my attic :)

It's a beautiful place, my favourite beach! ❤

I lived in tregaron and went to school in the early 90s then moved to Aberaeron which is just as beautiful and special. Now i live in Birmingham and i hate it,if i found a job i would for sure move back. I had my 1st snog in that pub hotel in the town when we had a school Halloween party..

Aberaeron was planned until Ceredigion County Council took control of planning. The result is Colditz, an estate down by the promenade and the Mosque, which is officially called Penmorfa, formerly part of Pengarreg farm, the yard of which is now a retail centre. The Mosque is in fact the home of Ceredigion County Council and their planning department which is notorious nationwide for its horrendous planning decisions [including the mosque itself] but mainly for allowing cheap generic bungalows to be built willy nilly all over the county and the old brutalist water board building which is now our integrated health centre which does bugger-all integration and has itself gained a terrible reputation since moving there. It’s no longer fit for purpose. Not the building but the doctor’s practice.

My parents live there and, yes, "Balamory" for sure! 😊

The lifeboats have been saved! Two new state of the art boats have been dedicated and formerly handed over this May of 2024, having been delivered and used for up to the last year or so. The all weather big boy has been mostly donated by a potato farmer that has financed I think five around the UK coast. The inshore boat has largely been financed by a legacy and is named after the benefactor. Lets not forget all the people, local and otherwise, that raise money to finance this essential service and keep it going day to day, plus the brave volunteers that man them.

Just found this video some 9 months late. Great production. Llangrannog is great… in Winter when the tourists go home. The very narrow road down to the Pentre is a nightmare at peak traffic times as it has few passing places. The other issue is that it is mostly holiday homes, or at least used to be. Fairly sure that at one time this was a smugglers cove. Wasn’t Twm Sion Cati here or a very near cove?

Great video of a really lovely town. I will be there in a few weeks’ time. I bought one of those transport themed mugs a few years ago.

Been going to Llangrannog since the late 70's, an amazing place to holiday, and still not what i would call touristy, please don't tell anyone else about it ;-)

What this bridge filmed in the tv series of Hinterland?

Just subscribed. Thank you for the lovely videos 🤗🤗

Greetings from Penrhiwllan, looking forward to your next video. We are new to the area and your videos have been so helpful. Did I just see your lovely car drive past my house!

Im 71 yrs old now, but as a young teen, maybe 14 or so yrs old, I do remember following one of the footpaths in the castle and seeing what I thought was a human leg bone sticking out of the bank on my right side. At that time, about the 1967 period all that was showing was about 4 or five inches of the bone and I thought perhaps I should report it, but then thought it cant be a human bone, so most probably from a cow or something like; yet I never ever forgot having seen it so it came as a big shock to hear the a skeleton had been discovered there in the castle some twenty years later, Now i feel quite stunned. Sad too, to see the place I got married now surrounded my scaffolding. Where has my life gone I ask, its just melted away.

We went on the Aeron Express. Elf n safety has a lot to answer for :(

My grandad used to take us there when holidaying in New Quay. As kids we called it fraggle rock (showing my age now). Thank you for sharing a bit of the history, very interesting.

Great tour video and very useful. We visited Aberystwyth today on our roadtrip around Wales, sadly Pwdin has closed down much to our disappointment 😭. We wanted to get some of those lovely cakes!

its a charming village

Ah yes Llangrannog, finished a walk there in the Pentre for a few hours waiting for a taxi back to Aberteifi! Lovely little place.

Do u only walk down the steep stairs not back up? X

I wish you talked about tonypandy riots, was a huge event in the Rhondda

I only wanted to know about and see the bridges

Thank you for all these wonderful videos

Machynlleth the medieval s hole in Powys , I’ve seen more life in a nuns draws

Thank you this was really interesting, it's made me want to visit now as I wasn't aware of this centre before

I went to Yr urdd back in the later end of the 70's. Loved the whole experience, even swimming in the pool that had no heating next to the stable block. Oh and going for a bike ride, we got half way down the little lane from the camp down to the village when a hail storm began. Our instructor told us to go back cos the hail was the size of hazelnuts and the girls starting crying with the pain of being hit with them. So many more very fond memories of a 5 day stay at the camp. I've been back several times since the last being 30 years ago. Will go back sometime, if I can organise time to do the area justice.

i went to gyfun emlyn too

been there many times loved it

BBCs Weatherman Walking show has been copying your content this morning!

I love you video of Aberystwyth. I have wonderful memories of Aberystwyth in 1986 and 1987 which I look back with fondness and joy.

Hi Miss Hubnut, It's Awesome

Hi Carly sorry late commenting on this as we have been away in Cornwall with no signal It looks a wonderful place and can see why you all love it there it has such a fascinating history must visit your part of wales one day best wishes to you Ian and the family Daniel

After we spit up they demolished st David's hotel where we used to go for drinks,darts and pool 🎱 in the bar area,we used to walk down the path next to the golf course near the beach and I think I got hit on the head by a golf ball.

My boyfriends (at the time) his family had (until recently) a cottage,down that steep hill near the castle. It was located opposite a grave yard. We use to visit the surrounding areas too, Port Maddock,Port Mirrian and Barmouth. I hope I've spent those names right. Aw memories

Mach's claim to fame with me... has to be the worse public toilet in the UK....!

My wife and I made it a point to go to places you recommended, we've just separated but I promise to continue going on my home, keep up the great work x

I enjoyed the song 😊

Thanks for another smashing video, they get better all the time 🙂👍

Well done Miss HN, I too think Llangrannog is the No1 place to visit. I first went there in 1989 and returned so many times either camping or staying in the cottage that was owned by The Ship Inn, simply fell in love. We would go every January to enjoy a New Year break, I loved this village as much in the Winter as I did in the Summer I am ashamed to say that we did not know the story of Cranogwen, and that we haven't be back for 25 years !. Maybe Jan 24 we will meet up with a very old friend.

Stayed at Cwm tdu last year in my Caravan and visited Llangrannog quite a few times. Absolutely stunning. Would advise using the free car park at the top of the village as Miss Hub Nut suggests and get the Shuttle Bus down into the village.😂

Thanks for another enjoyable video, we visited here in early May and its a lovely place, great food in Pentre, Caffi Patio and the pizza restaurant was fantastic. Its better to park at the top and walk down if you can, bus was not running when we were there. Its ok if able bodied and there are a few routes, just keep going down. A warning about the car park at the bottom, one evening we parked and the pay machine was out of action so could not use coins, there is no internet signal with some carriers and also no phone signal in the village. The wifi provided for the machine was so slow we were not able to use it so had to go into the pub to use theirs and by that time the ten minutes allowed to pay had expired and when we returned home had a bill for £100 as they use ANPR on entry. There are lots of complaints about this on line so if you are unable to pay on arrival leave the car park, I understand some local people are just as unhappy about this as visitors. Please keep making these videos when you can and have the time, we always look forward to the next one.

Thanks. We made a visit here yesterday on the back of your video. Kids enjoyed the ‘secret’ beach and pizza!

This is fantastic.....thanks for filming this video. I've only ever been there once, on a 2 week holiday staying on the farm up at Lochtyn in 1977, which was very memorable and I've been wanting to return sometime but have never got around to it due to living far away 😃 Thanks for this inspirational video. I do enjoy watching the online live webcam from the Pentre Arms just to give me a bit of a Llangrannog fix from time to time.

Thank you for your very informative video .I had never heard of Sarah Jane Rees (Cranogwen). Women definitely had it harder in those days, so that makes her life even more remarkable. I have never understood why women are often valued less than me or deemed less intelligent and women like Cranogwen go to show that there is absolutely no reason for men not to see them as equals.
