Lovely place for some camping at the weekend.
We ended up attending the Conscious Camp, which turned out to be great family fun. Sorry for the cliche, but it was!
We even got involved in a bit of river swimming

Amlwch Copper Mine
The Copper Kingdom Centre, Amlwch Port, Anglesey, LL68 9DB
Definitely worth a visit, some people also call the mine – Parys Mountain
Horse Shoe Falls – North Wales
Took a half day on Friday, and drove down to the waterfall by the Horse Shoe Pass (which is kind-of by Llangollen).
Great idea if you live within a few hours driving distance, hardly anyone there on a Friday afternoon.
The waterfall itself, isn’t really a waterfall (see pic above).
However, it is still really beautiful, especially the view from the hill above the lake/waterfall.
Lots of ‘layers’ of trees, hills, etc.
Horse Shoe Pass, Denbighshire – Near Llangollen
Near the Ponderosa cafe
Horseshoe Pass, Llangollen, LL20 8DR
You can park at the cafe, or across the road – there is usually plenty of free parking.
The Horseshoe pass is a great place for walkers, hikers, bikers and families. Something for virtually everyone!
There are also a number of campsites nearby, and you can stay over at the cafe.
Air BnB – North Wales
So, I used Air BnB for the first time – and stayed in a house near Amlwch, Anglesey.
It costs £60 a night, and was well worth it.
It was perfect for us with a baby – as we had a meal cooked for us, and stayed and didn’t have to worry about the baby screaming and upsetting people.
If you don’t fancy sharing the actual house, the couple that we stayed with, also have a caravan outside.
There’s a lovely beach about 10 minutes drive away from the house:
Pili Palas was really quiet, and definitely worth a visit with the little-one
Big Foot Spotted on Hope Mountain Wrexham
Looks like the Easter Bunny sloping off home after a 3 week bender…
