The Cambrian Rally is a fast and furious event, and it is certainly spectacular – the fact that it has won the “Best Rally” award no fewer than three times in the last ten years speaks to its quality!
It is one of the oldest and most established rally events in the country and many famous drivers have competed in the race. So, if you are looking to make it to just one race this year, this should be the one you choose. The very best drivers in the UK will be taking to the course.

Conwy Castle
Conwy Castle is easily the most spectacular of all the castles in North Wales (and cost the most to build, too!). The castle was built for Edward I by Master James of St George, and is one of the most impressive surviving medieval fortifications in Britain.
Conwy Town Walls
The town walls of Conwy are a major tourist attraction for the town, and with good reason: they are regarded as one of the most impressive and most intact walled circuits in all of Europe. Dating back to the late 13th century, they are as old as the town itself, and constructed by Edward I to pair with the equally impressive Conwy Castle, they form a foreboding defensive installation.
Llandudno
Known as “the Queen of the Welsh Resorts” since the middle of the 19th century, Llandudno is the largest seaside resort town in Wales. Characterised by the long promenade overlooked by the rows of Victorian buildings which make up the South Parade the architecture certainly lives up to this title. The town has 2 popular beaches, North Shore and West Shore.
