Llanwnda, Caernarfon

Llanwnda is a very small countryside village set just outside of Caernarfon, hosting only one pub and a handful of houses you can be sure to find an escape from the hustle and bustle of life. Within a ten minute drive however you will find yourself in the midst of the Royal Town of Caernarfon which hosts a variety of shops and restaurants to cater for every taste!

The castle in Caernarfon is one of Wales' most famous, dating back to the 13th Century. The Castle dominates the historic and royal town, and the site and its walls are a designated World Heritage Site. The town is situated on the banks of the River Seiont with magnificent views of the Menai Strait.

The History of the town dates back to Roman times, and as its commanding presence demonstrates how it was set apart from other settlements in North Wales. And being the site where HRH Prince Charles was crowned Prince of Wales in 1969, it would be a crime not to visit this majestic and noble town!
