Your guide to Llangollen
Welcome to Llangollen
A sandstone wonderland sitting pretty on the banks of the wide River Dee, Llangollen is one of Wales’ loveliest towns. The handsome Llangollen Bridge helps its setting: Built in the 16th century, its four arches are still perfectly preserved. The local pubs’ terraces right by the bridge are prime spots to soak up the atmosphere.
Away from the river, Llangollen town proper is a haven for its cafes and delis, which offer locally sourced meats, artisanal Welsh cheeses, and vegan specialities. In the evenings, independent restaurants and quirky bars thrive along its narrow, characterful streets, while bookshops and antique emporiums add to the town’s timeless character, as do its stunning canals.
The landscape surrounding Llangollen is also unmissable, including the dramatic Eglwyseg escarpment to the north on the way to the similarly sweet town of Ruthin, and the views from the staggering Pontcysyllte Aqueduct four miles to the east.
The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Llangollen
Llangollen is famous for its International Musical Eisteddfod, which takes over the town in the second week of July. Around 50,000 people attend, and more than 5,000 musicians, singers, and dancers perform, from all over the world. A lively Fringe Festival including art, music, theatre, and comedy, follows a week later, with workshops for up-and-coming artists, and appearances from well-known names. Because of the Eisteddfod’s reputation, summers in the town can be busy, but Llangollen’s attractions make the town work all year round, whatever the weather. Llangollen is small, flat, and navigable even in the worst weather. Its shops, restaurants, and attractions like Plas Newydd also provide plenty of indoor enrichment.
Top things to do in Llangollen
Plas Newydd
This stunning black-and-white house on the outskirts of town was lived in by the Ladies of Llangollen: two women who fled 18th-century Ireland to be together. They turned their home into a stunning creative paradise, full of elaborate oak interiors, stained glass, and gorgeous gardens. An audio tour tells the story of their place in high society and their love for each other.
Horseshoe Pass
To get from Llangollen to the nearby northern town of Ruthin, you have to travel through the Clwydian Range, one of the lesser-known but most beautiful mountain ranges in Wales. You also have to be brave: The Horseshoe Pass separates Llantysilio Mountain from the Marilyn Cyrn-y-Brain, reaching a height of 417 metres, but the jaw-dropping views are worth it. At the top, a cafe and gift shop allows drivers, motorcyclists, and nervous passengers to take a breath.
Pontcysyllte Aqueduct
If you’ve ever fancied walking or taking a narrowboat in what feels like the open air, try travelling along the highest and longest canal aqueduct in Wales, a staggering 38 metres above ground. The cast-iron construction itself is an extraordinary site in the valley: UNESCO awarded it World Heritage status in 2009.
