Hills and beaches with Luci
Luci and her Van visited Southern Wales and here's what she got up to. "Southern Wales has some truly spectacular sites and is well worth a visit, even if it is for a whirlwind weekend of adventure or for a longer holiday. For myself, I know I have fallen in love with this wonderful section of Wales and will be heading back again in July to explore more soon." Luci
Side Street Style explore Southern Wales
"I couldn't be more excited to share reasons why you need to visit Southern Wales. As some of you may know I live in South Wales, between Cardiff and the Welsh Valleys and personally I think it's one of the best areas in the UK with so many hidden gems, wild spaces and cultural hubs that are often overlooked for more well-known destinations. But if you’re looking to get away, out of the city, into the outdoors and have a real family adventure then Southern Wales is definitely a destination you need to check out so here are some reasons to visit the area."
London Unattached Explore Cardiff and the Vale
“As a child I used to holiday in the Welsh valleys with my family, I have very fond memories of squashed in the back of my father’s Wolsey squabbling with my three siblings whilst my parents pointed out the beautiful scenic countryside. However, it’s all a very long time ago and if my memory serves me correctly I don’t think we ever went to Cardiff, so I was very excited to be offered the opportunity to explore Southern Wales and visit its capital city.” Lucy Foxell – London-Unattached
