If you are driving in Wales, make sure you choose A-roades as all others are narrow and often single-file roads that´s rather hard to navigate. With that in mind, don´t miss out on the faboulus little villages and georgeous little towns along the coast or up in the hills, it´s breathtaking!

We drove to lodges and hiking destinations in South Wales: Pen y Fan, Brecon, boating near Abergavenny, hiking in Four Waterfalls, Afan Forest & then back to Cardiff on Day 4.
