Llandudno and the Great Orme and Plas Cadnet Hidden Gardens.

Visit Conwy, with its magnificent Edwardian Castle and quaint medieval streets and later, cross over the Menai Strait to Ynys Môn – the Isle of Anglesey and see Plas Cadnet Hidden Gardens, recently voted one of the nation’s favourite gardens.
Day 3
Ffestiniog Railway and Portmeirion
The Ffestiniog Railway is the oldest independent railway company in the world today. We travel from Portmadog to the slate quarrying town of Blaenau Ffestiniog, travelling through pastures, villages, and the ancient wooded slopes of the valley side. In the afternoon, visit Sir Clough Williams-Ellis’ Italianate village and gardens at Portmeirion.

Snowdon Mountain Railway, Caernarfon and National Slate Museum.
Today, we travel over the spectacular Llanberis Pass for a train ride to the top of Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales. Afterwards, visit the National Slate Museum where the workshops and buildings have been designed as though quarrymen and engineers have just put down their tools and left the courtyard for home. In the afternoon, we visit Caernarfon
where there’s free time to explore the old town.
