If you’re in Aberdovey for a while it’s well worth using the trains to visit the surrounding areas ask for a Ranger or Rover ticket and you can hop off and on all day, if you’re only there a short while there’s plenty to do in the village.

• Go crabbing on the jetty… bait is available at the butchers, the RNLI shop at the lifeboat station, Dai’s Shed and the gift shops. • Visitors are welcome to try sea rowing at the rowing club at 10.00 Sat morning meet on the jetty in front of the blue double doors.

• Go to the Literary Institute (on the right-hand side on the way to the Penhelig Arms – look for the anchor at the front) and read a book or use the free Wi-Fi overlooking the sea (wet days?).

• Go to the Penhelig Arms and have a meal in the Fisherman’s bar • Play golf at Aberdovey Golf Club.

• Play bowls, putting or tennis at Aberdovey Bowls Club.

• Use the putting green or tennis courts at The Trefeddian Hotel (they simply ask that you buy a drink in return).

• Opposite the Penhelig Hotel find The Roman Road – just walk along the lovely row of houses until you reach a gate to the park, then walk along until you see a path along the cliff side, it’s such a pretty walk with Roman steps cut into the rocks up to picnic island.

• Enjoy a drink upstairs on the balcony at the Britannia Inn, watching the boats go by it’s the best seat in Aberdovey!

• Choose an ice-cream from the many flavours at the Pink ice-cream shop (you can ask for half and half!)

• Jump off the jetty (you’ve not really visited Aberdovey if you don’t do this!)

• Have a latte and cake or a sandwich at the Medina Coffee shop (up the little alley next to the Pharmacy) 

• Build a fire on the beach with driftwood at night near the sand dunes toast marshmallows or eat fish & chips.

• Have BBQ or picnic on the beach.

• Walk the four miles along the beach to Tywyn. It’s around four miles there – you can always get the train back!

• Go to Magic Lantern cinema in Tywyn – it’s like stepping back in time! Well worth a trip.They have a Secret Garden at the back accessed via a wardobe on the street serving tapas and drinks.

• In Tywyn, we love eating at the Salt Marsh Kitchen . 

• Play Tennis, Crazy Golf, Shuffleboard, Table Tennis or Quoits at the municipal park in Tywyn.

• Go to swimming pool in Tywyn – they do family float fun sessions and a gym.

• Go and see the waterfalls at Dolgoch – you can pick up the Tal-y Llyn railway in Tywyn to Abergynolwyn, which passes over the path to the falls. It’s a beautiful walk, but not suitable for very small children or pushchairs, as there are some steep drops.

• Go to the Honey Ice Cream shop in Tywyn it has the loveliest whippy ice cream & fab toppings.

• Go to the Craft Centre at Corris – there’s a Gin distillery, Welsh Jewellery shop, wooden crafts and children can make and paint pottery, candles and chocolate bars. There’s also an underwater boat ride through caves – King Arthur’s Labyrinth (they don’t open in the winter months, so check online before you set off).

• Eat at Blasau (The Royal House) in Machynlleth – lovely little black and white painted deli/coffee shop  just past the clock tower.

• Visit old curiosity shops (& Ian Snow shop) in Machynlleth.

• Take the train to Harlech and see the castle and lovely little shop.

• Take the train along the coast to Minfford and visit Portmeirion – it only takes 1hour 40 mins and is such a lovely journey. There’s a bit of a walk (1 mile) up to the village but it’s worth the effort – it’s such a magical place to visit for all the family. You can ask for a Ranger ticket on the train which means you can stop off at Barmouth or Harlech on your way back too.

• Go to Barmouth for the day (you can park at Fairbourne – follow signs for steam railway – & get the water taxi across the bay) – try the Mermaid Fish & Chip shop near the railway station.

• For bird enthusiasts & RSPB members there are a number of places to go :
– Just out of Machynlleth, on the road towards Aberystwyth is the Osprey Centre – the guides are very knowledgeable
– 10 miles east of Aberystwyth on the A44 you can see the Red Kites being fed – 2 pm daily and 3 pm when it’s British Summer Time
– There is a RSPB reserve at Yn-Y-Shir (also on the road from Machynlleth to Aberystwyth)
