Short breaks

Short breaks in Wales are never too long. Within a few hours, you can be shopping in Cardiff's arcades, getting out the bucket and spade, or grabbing your kit for 48 hours of gripping adventure. There's romance to be shared, spas to be tried and a new Wales to be discovered. We think these offer some of the best UK short breaks available.
