where to holiday in wales?

[husky03]

Looking for any ideas on where to stay in wales end of june for a week , i'm after the following -

need family accomidation for three adults and three sprogs-sprogs from 4yrs to 2months
must have stuff for the kids to do during the day,,family facilities close by(swing parks, zoo, etc), shops + beach within driving distance.
most important thing is that the scuzzers who live on the dole etc don't holiday there.
Holiday park or a cottage would be ideal.
anyone got anywhere they'd recommend

cheers

Try here.Right on the beach and next to The mountains

I was also going to suggest Greenacres, but did not realise it was now a Haven holidays place. The location is superb, right on one of the best beaches in N. Wales. I have never stayed there myself, but a relation had a static van there for years and loved it.

used to have a van there myself before it was a Haven,and the park touches the beach.Was there one yaer when then filmed some of "First Knight" on the beach.
Great minds Mike

We've stayed at Hafan Y Mor (sounds hilarious when pronounced)

it rained a lot but was still good fun, and good for access to the mountains. Plenty to do there too - good swimming pool and karting and other things.

Anywhere with a fire and a good watertight roof! ;)

Anywhere in the south if Brunstrom is still Chief Constable.

I refuse to enter North Wales until that idiot has left the police force.

He is retiring. http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=130944

So anywhere should be fine for a holiday.

South West Wales is lovely, but a bit barren. Tenby was a good suggestion though. Personally I prefer the valleys more central in Wales, and up North it can be pretty special too. But I've just spent 4 days in Pembrokshire anyway, so do as I say, not as I do ;) :lol:

Go here if you want a really good (non dole going) holiday in Wales. It's in Pembrokeshire, right next to Oakwood for the kids, although it has plenty to offer them on site. They actively encourage you to get out and about in Pembrokeshire. They have a spa, a blue lagoon and a snow dome (not sure if that's finished yet) so there's plenty for all the family.

It is a new luxury holiday park. Friends of mine went a few months back and loved it. They said it's way better than any centre parks or haven that they've been to and didn't mind paying a little more. They said the lodges are beautiful and really well built and equipped in keeping with their 5 star standard.

Worth a go methinks as I grew up going on holidays in Pembrokeshire and you have so many beautiful areas within easy reach!!

My dad still keeps a boat at Freshwater East and takes the caravan there every summer. I took Stretchie last year and showed him how fab it is!
