Here in Wales we are blessed with idyllic stretches of beach, dramatic, rugged mountain ranges that are simply epic and picture perfect luscious green countryside that screams tranquility. What we also have are quaint towns and welcoming villages that are also pretty impressive, remaining almost untouched by mass tourism, keeping the heart and soul of the area alive.
And now four in Wales have been named among The Telegraph's 30 greatest villages - all untouched by mass tourism: Solva in Pembrokeshire, Laugharne in Carmarthenshire (yes, we know it is technically a town), Aberffraw on Anglesey and Beddgelert in Gwynedd.
With staycations becoming an immense popular holiday option for those who don't want to board a plane or ferry, spending hundreds of pounds, and go too far from home - especially since the pandemic - locations once quiet have become riddled with tourists, particularly in the summer.
