history and culture

The unofficial cultural capital of Wales, Aberystwyth, is just 30 minutes drive away – it's home to the National Library of Wales, which has a copy of every publication ever printed in the British Isles. Aber, as it's known locally, also has a vibrant Arts Centre and gallery on the university campus.

Strata Florida abbey, the Coracle centre on the river Teifi in Cenarth, and the 18th century Welsh gentry estate of Llanerchaeron are just a few of the cultural delights you’ll find  in the ancient county of Ceredigion.

Nearby Lampeter is the county's second university town – home to the oldest degree-awarding institution in Wales and England after Oxford and Cambridge.

With its lively culture, and the prominence of the Welsh language in the area, you'll truly experience the unique culture of Wales in Ceredigion.
