With the weather warm and sun shining, it's been a glorious week for families to spend time together amid the May half term break. With primary schools, comprehensives and colleges across Wales closed for the week, thousands of us have flocked to local beaches, parks and valleys for day-trips, swims and hikes with our loved ones, whilst hundreds of families have rented caravans, motorhomes and cottages for well-deserved trips away.
If you've been looking at the weather and wishing you'd booked a stay somewhere, I have some good news: there's still several gorgeous cottages and bustling holiday parks with spaces for families to come and visit for the rest of the week and into the weekend.
Here's our round-up of nine of our favourite holiday cottages and holiday parks in Wales that you can still book for this Half Term. All prices and availability correct at the time of writing.
