Things to do in Harlech on your holiday in Wales
Hit the beach for seaside fun...
Cardigan Bay boasts some of the best beaches in Wales, and beautiful Harlech is no exception. Even in the height of summer, Harlech Beach never looks busy! With its golden sand and crystal blue waters, this enchanting seaside resort is ideal for both family holidays and romantic getaways. Pack a picnic and make the most of magnificent views from the Llŷn Peninsula to Snowdonia National Park. Nearby beaches such as Llandanwg and Shell Island are also worth exploring for their natural beauty and tranquility. Make the most of the amazing views with our Harlech holiday homes on the coast and stay just a stone's throw from the sandy beach.
Soak up history at Harlech Castle...
Harlech Castle sits high up on a rocky crag, overlooking the dunes of Harlech Beach far below and with the Snowdonia mountains creating a dramatic backdrop. There is fierce competition amongst Edward I's North Wales castles, but this one just might take the crown! With a UNESCO World Heritage Site designation, it really is a must-visit for any Harlech holiday. Explore the castle's impressive walls, towers and gatehouses, and enjoy spectacular views of the surrounding countryside and coastline. Stay in one of our Harlech cottages in the centre of town and you'll be within walking distance of this incredible fortress by the sea.
Get active in the great outdoors...

From water-based activities around Cardigan Bay to mountain adventures in Snowdonia National Park, Harlech has it all. Climb the iconic peaks of Snowdon, Cader Idris and the Rhinog mountains; go kayaking paddle-boarding or surfing around the Llyn Peninsula; or try to spot dolphins and porpoises around Cardigan Bay. On the outskirts of Harlech, you'll find one of the country's best and oldest golf courses, Royal St. David's Golf Club.
