The best and the worst seaside towns in the whole of the UK have been determined and two in Wales have been mentioned - although at opposite ends of the spectrum.
While we are quite aware that Wales has some of the best sandy shores in Britain, if not the world, with the likes of Barafundle Bay, Rhossili Bay... pretty much most Welsh 'bays', it seems The Telegraph has deemed Rhyl in north Wales to have the most unpleasant of beachy and seaside experiences, rating it 5 out of 100 and using it as an example of how "not to do things".
Now the publication does state that this 20-strong list isn't "conclusive or even a top 20". Instead, it took a selection of "classic resorts and studied how they have adapted – or not – over the past three decades". Its rating and ranking has been determined by "housing and high streets, renovations and conservation, as well as the cultural clout that so often accompanies gentrification".
