To celebrate our 2 year anniversary me and the boy stayed a bit closer to home and explored Wales again! We went to Tenby in Wales last time for our anniversary which we loved but we thought we would travel to a different part this time - Llanelli near the Gower Peninsula.
With all holidays you take in the United Kingdom you never know what the weather is going to be like but we were super lucky I even have the awful sunburn to prove it! We started the day by exploring burry port & its little lighthouse.
As the weather improved throughout the day we then travelled to Pembrey Country Park which has so much to do for everyone including the beach & mini golf. (I am pleased to say it was a draw)
We stayed at the 4 star stradey park hotel which have an amazing weekend offer for just £130 per night you get a 3 course dinner for 2 in their Samphires Restaurant and a full buffet breakfast. Great hospitality and thoroughly enjoyed the stay.
Spacious hotel room with lovely decor.
The off the shoulder trend is still everywhere, lace is elegant for occasions like this and orange just screams summer!

I had 3 delicious courses for dinner including:
Starter - Smoked haddock and spinach filled vol-au-vent topped with poached egg yolk and dill crème fraiche
Main - Slow braised lamb wrapped in Parma ham coated in lemon and rosemary with pommes Anna, caramelised onion chutney, buttered carrots and garlic and thyme jus
Dessert - Baked lemon cheesecake with a warm raspberry sauce
Sunday at the Mumbles, Wales
If you're looking for somewhere to visit in Swansea I highly recommend the mumbles about 30 minutes from llanelli, this marks the beginning of the Gower Peninsula’s coastline and the view is incredible. The sun took a bit longer to show it's face but was lovely walking along the promenade and victorian pier plus eating ice cream!
If you look close enough you can see the mumbles lighthouse completed in 1794.
How cute is this pineapple print?! Makes me crave a pina colada cocktail! Ha

Have you travelled to Wales recently?

They sure have Lovely beach in Pembrey. Lots to do. Costs £5 to get in but can keep you busy for a whole day. Beach has coastguards. Only negative was the lack of places to get food, ice cream etc. There is only once place and it lost it license.
