My first *ever* multi-day music festival (a sheltered adolescence, you see...)…read more FN6 was suggested to me by learned friends as a great 'entry-level' festival to cut my teeth on, and they weren't wrong. Much smaller than the behemoths such as Glastonbury, at 15,000 capacity, it sounded like a decent-sized event to me. Held in and around the seriously picturesque coastal tourist village of Portmeirion in north Wales, their tag line of "A festival like no other in a location like no other" was absolutely spot on. A pal and I headed down there on Thursday as we had weekend camping tickets; meaning we could get set up and start exploring the area before the masses arrived after work on the Friday. This really worked in our favour, as the queues to get our wristbands in nearby Porthmadog (where the park and ride and shuttle buses were) moved fairly steadily. Getting on to site, we carried everything we had up to the general camping area (be sure to think ahead about your choice of bag) - lots of people had small hand-pull trolleys and I even saw a bloke dragging a wheelie bin with his stuff inside. Genius. There's plenty to see and do around the site, with smaller stages in the forest by the beach and to the sides of the main arena. A fantastic range of food stalls were selling all manner of tasty dishes. The have a real ale and a cider bar so don't worry there's more than just commercial lager on tap. We brought our own stash of beers though - you can bring alcohol with you but absolutely no glass bottles. The headliners this year included Kaiser Chiefs, Bastille, Hot Chip and Noel Gallagher, but for me it was the lesser and unknown acts singing, DJing and performing comedy who made it a terrific long weekend (despite the biblical levels of rain and subsequent mud-fest). Though I admit I missed my mattress and my power shower, it was a great experience!

Set in lovely surroundings (the walk down into the gorge behind the property is particularly…read morerewarding) the house - originally a simple, unadorned, farm-dwelling - became famous as the home of Lady Eleanor Butler and Miss Sarah Ponsonby, of Ireland; the celebrated 'Ladies of Llangollen' (a coy term for an obviously 'out' Lesbian couple of the Regency period). The website will give you all the background to their remarkable story of devotion and fidelity, but what you really need to know is that you can walk around the grounds, and savour the marvellous salvaged carvings they used to adorn the exterior of their home, for free. However, expect to pay £3.50 if you want to look inside. An often overlooked gem in Llangollen - don't miss it, and take a camera with you.

I have to strongly agree with a former post on here that was written by a skype user..this was…read morewritten in 2009 and it is shocking to feel the same way five years later ...he writes ''Having recently visited the Boat Museum at Ellesmere Port with a friend, I can certainly report that the various levels of advertising about the Museum are utterly false, which I have formally written to complain about. Importantly the Museum falsely advertises what a great place to visit, and continues to utilise a lot of extreme artistic licence in photos and text to promote the Museum. The 21st Century displays are mostly out of order. There were no volunteers in period costumes as promoted. On exhibit (the Stables) is empty and pointless. Other exhibits like the steam engines weren't working, with signs saying out of order. The Archive Centre was completely closed to the public. There are only few boats to be seen, and these are very rusty, dilapidated old barges that are water logged, mostly filled with debris and green slime.'' This place did feel like a ship graveyard and would make a good movie set for a ghost ship themed scene.. There were so many boats rotting on the sides, no actors in period costumes,,,half the buildings were closed off to public..and those that were open were just like walking in yours nans living room...which I can do that for free..The blacksmith was not even there,,but had left a catalogue with some of his works you could buy..which were great looking I have to say..so if you a fancy a lord of the rings themed gate,you know where to go.. The only redeeming feature that this place had was a 1000+ year old boat found from an archaeological dig (although the other boats looked like this) and the cafe..which sold cheap and cheerful homemade basics such as pies and jacket potatoes.. We paid £6.50 to get in...which didn't seem bad at the time...but I would save that money and go for a pint instead with Titanic playing in the background

The National Waterways Museum (once known as the Boat Museum) hosts a lovely waterside setting…read more The museum nestles on the banks of the Manchester ship canal and the Mersey in Ellsmere Port's fine Victorian canal docks. It's home to a remarkable collection of boats from inland waterways which include narrowboats, barges, ice breakers and much more. A memorable canal trip takes you through an industrial waterscape, which is rich in stories and wildlife. The tour allows you to look into the lives of boat people who travelled the canals and the families who lived and worked on the docks. There's plenty of space to let off steam, quiet corners for picnics and trails to follow which makes it a warm welcome for families. Visitor prices are reasonable, costing just £6 for an adult and £4 for a child (aged 5 to 16). Concessions are £5 and under 5's are free. As a whole, I would recommend this trip if you are interested in soaking up some local flavour as there is lots to see and do. With flotillas of historic boats and fascinating indoor displays, the National Waterways Museum is a great day whatever the weather.
