Celebrate Saint David’s Day in Wales
Wales is a land of breathtaking landscapes, rich history and vibrant culture, and there’s no better time to experience it all than in late February and March - around the time of Saint David’s Day. Celebrated on March 1st, Saint David’s Day is a proud Welsh tradition honouring the country’s patron saint, Dewi Sant (Saint David). It’s a day filled with parades, daffodils, leeks, and a celebration of all things Welsh. So if you’re looking for the perfect way to mark this special occasion, why not escape to the picturesque village of Tresaith? Nestled on the stunning Ceredigion coastline, Tresaith offers a tranquil retreat with its golden beach, cascading waterfall, and charming coastal walks. And the best part? You can stay in at Ty Nant, our much loved, self-catering holiday home.
Why Visit Tresaith for Saint David’s Day?
Soak up some Welsh Culture
Saint David’s Day is the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in Welsh traditions. From local parades to traditional music and food, you’ll feel the warmth and pride of the Welsh spirit. Nearby towns like Aberaeron and Cardigan often host festive events, such as Cardigan’s St David’s Day Parade, and if you don’t mind travelling a little further, places like Aberystwyth also put on concerts and special St David’s Day Fairs.
Explore the Great Outdoors
Tresaith is a haven for nature lovers. Just a few minutes’ walk from our front door at Ty Nant is the Welsh Coastal Path, and as you stroll along it, either via the easier walk to Aberporth or the steeper (up and down) route to Penbryn, you’ll be treated to stunning views over Cardigan Bay. If you’re feeling adventurous, you could try your hand at coasteering or kayaking, with a high chance of seeing bottlenose dolphins. Tresaith’s waterfall, which tumbles onto the beach, is a must-see and makes for a perfect photo opportunity.
Relax in Comfort
After a day of exploring, return to Ty Nant, where you can unwind in a comfortable, home-from-home, well-equipped space. Whether you’re enjoying a family meal, a soak in the hot tub, or simply relaxing with a book, Ty Nant provides the perfect base for your Welsh getaway.
Discover Local Delights
Wales is famous for its culinary treats, and from Tresaith there are so many lovely places to go to eat and drink. As well as The Ship Inn in the village, which overlooks the beach, you can also sample fresh seafood at The Ship in Aberporth, or try traditional Welsh dishes like cawl (a hearty lamb stew) at The Pentre Arms in LLangrannog, or go to one of the local cafes, like The Plwmp Tart at Penbryn for some Welsh cakes. Don’t forget to wash it all down with a pint of locally brewed ale!
