Bangor is an attractive city by the Irish Sea coast in the north of Wales, just outside of the northern perimeter of Snowdonia National Park and very close to the Isle of Anglesey. For those looking for excellent shopping along with a good choice of bars and restaurants, Bangor could be a great place for a luxury city break. Spend quality time soaking up city life and exploring the city. Bangor has an attractive marina and pier, cathedral plus historical buildings and art gallery to recommend it. For time in the countryside, Bangor Mountain is close by.
Those who adore historical buildings should find plenty to quench their thirst within Bangor itself. Those on the look out for a castle should also be satisfied as just on the outskirts of the city in a scenic spot is Penrhyn Castle, a fantastic National Trust protected property that is well worth a visit.
Visitors to Bangor can enjoy both city life and the great outdoors when holidaying here. Close by, tourists can discover Bangor Mountain and the Mountains of Ogwen Valley which can be excellent for hiking and mountaineering.
For days out sightseeing, Bangor enjoys a great location close to the Isle of Anglesey with its miles and miles of outstanding coastline to tempt visitors. Also within reach for day trips is Snowdonia National Park, with Bethesda, which is just on the edge of the park, just 6 miles away and the pinnacle of Mount Snowdon only around 15 miles away. This means that two of Wales’ best loved areas are within relatively easy reach for day trips.
When it comes to experiencing Bangor in style, it makes sense to book luxury self-catering accommodation. Choices include pet-friendly self-catering and options like romantic self-catering.
