August in Wales – Hot!
August is arguably the most splendid month to spend outdoors in the UK and that’s why log cabins in Wales are perfect for a summer break. The scenery, the festive summer mood and the excellent disposition of the Welsh, in general make for a terrific time. Add to that the plethora of fun and festivity that the Welsh put on during the summer months and you have a recipe for a great vacation for the whole family, with friends, or even on your own. Log cabins in Wales are plentiful and finding the right size and location to suit is relatively easy.
Hiking and Surfing
Wales is immensely popular with surfers and hikers who often opt for their log cabins in Wales to be near or along the Gower Peninsula. From here hikers have easy access to the cliffs, hills and seaside walks as well as the best surf in Wales. When the surfing and hiking have done you in, the beach beckons with white sand and gentle waves lulling you into relaxation.
Medieval Times
Other great events and things to do in Wales in August include Medieval Fun Week at the Gower Heritage Centre. Here visitors and spectators will meet a medieval Knight and Lady telling stories of the past. Courageous punters are invited to slay a dragon and for the more sedate spectator, there are displays of medieval armour, fancy dress competitions and opportunities to learn about medieval medicinal cures.
Football and Sports
And then there’s football in Cardiff. August is jam packed footy excitement as the 2012 Olympic preliminaries and quarter finals for both the women and the men. These and plenty of other exciting sports competitions, representing all our favourite sporting codes, are taking place in the astounding Millennium Stadium. Boasting the first fully retractable roof in the UK, the venue is at the cutting edge as a multi-purpose, multi-faceted event venue. Millennium will also host the football competitions for the 2012 Olympic Games. Could be a good time to book a log cabin in Wales!
