A cottage holiday in Aberaeron
My wife Elizabeth and I had decided we needed to get to know the west Wales coast as our son David's fiancee Amanda was studying at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth. After a number of visits to Aberystwyth itself we were ready to explore further afield so we booked a week's stay in a holiday cpttage in nearby Aberaeron. The cottage was delightful and overlooked a stream running beside a road called Heol-y-dwr (I think). Yes it rained a lot of the time, but there was sunshine too. The sun was shining on the day we chose to take a small boat trip from the Aberaeron Harbour out to see the dolphins frolicking in the bay. I remember a car drive up into the hills and seeing waterfalls, an old steam railway and back in the town there were delightful small independently run shops with local produce and gifts. I bought some exquisite Welsh cheese here! Posted: 03/09/2008 20:50 by John Howard Norfolk |

Aeron Express
The first time we visited Aberaeron, apart from the road bridge, one way of getting across the river was by the Aeron Express. Propelled by some sort of pulley arrangement, it looked like it could seat about 6 to 8 people. It wasn't actually working when we there; we've since been back quite a few times & it seems to have been taken away altogether. Can anyone throw any light on this, please? Thank you. Trevor.

Hillcroft, Lluest A memory of Ciliau Aeron, Dyfed I used to live in the farm house and my grandparents lived next door in the barn to Bed House. I loved it there and I hope whoever is there now is having a fantastic time. Wish we hadn't moved. x Last edited: 22/10/2008 09:35 by Jennifer Upshall |

A favourite place A memory of New Quay, Dyfed Of all our (my wife & I) favourite places in Wales, Newquay comes top of a long list of places. It was only sometime in the mid 1980's, that we first discovered this haven. We've been back numerous times, never bored with it. Two things spring to mind, Dylan Thomas & Dolphins. I would love to hear a local's view. What did it used to be like, years ago? What is it like in the winter when tourists are not about? For some years, we wanted to move to Wales, & Newquay was top of the list. Posted: 11/06/2008 21:52 by Trevor Page |
