Getting to Wales

Wales is closer than you might think. We’re just a few hours by road and rail from most of the UK’s main centres. From London, for example, you can be driving across the Severn Bridge in less than three hours – and it’s even quicker by train. From the rest of Britain and beyond, there’s an excellent choice of roads, flights and ferries.
