Should You Visit Aberystwyth? Seafront Tour, Wales

[@EdelweisSusie]

I found this video puzzling because Tim didn't actually show viewers round the town itself??? For anyone wanting to know: 1. It's a fairly LARGE town - plenty of shops, cafes, charity shops, snug pubs and eateries and some artisan shops. It also has a Greggs, Costa and Waterstones 2. If you want to stay centrally I can recommend Harry's Hotel & Restaurant - a 5-minute walk in a straight line from the railway station 3. There are loads of charity shops and also a huge Oxfam shop that specialises in books 4. There's a supermarket right opposite Harry's in the main thoroughfare so if you're self-catering that's the place to stock up 5. The fish & chip shop OPPOSITE the prom cooks TO ORDER so prepare yourself for a 15-minute wait (at least). The man got quite shirty with me when I asked why it was taking so long (there are no signs in the shop to inform customers that food is cooked to order) 6. Public toilets can be found by the Castle and also as you walk towards the funicular railway (it costs 30p so have some change to hand). I usually wait until I need to 'go' then just pop into a cafe for a cuppa and make use of their toilets 7. If you don't want to pay the £6.50 for the funicular railway you can walk to the top - it's not too challenging and has great views 8. The people of Aberystwyth are very welcoming - always willing to help you 9. As you walk towards the funicular railway there's a SENSATIONAL ice cream/gift shop that sells about 30 different flavours 10. Aberystwyth is very clean - the town really seems to care, and it shows 11. As you alight the train there's a large Antique Centre - worth a look as they have a lot of second-hand books, kitchen items (cheap) 12. Right next to the Antique Centre is a Wetherspoons (the traditional breakfast is sensational). Loos are upstairs and IMMACULATE 13. For singletons/solo travellers avoid school holidays - the town is crammed with families/loud kiddies particularly in good weather. I love going out of season AND when the children are in school: the sea's the best cure for a cluttered and overwhelmed mind 14. I urge you to make the effort and get up early (before breakfast) - nothing as beautiful as a peaceful walk along the prom at 5.00 am Hope that's helpful.

[@Sutagel_Panein]

I currently live in Aberystwyth studying at the University and I'm so glad I chose this as my option because it's such a nice town, good pubs, a...iffy but aight ish nightclub, and of course, the best thing about seaside towns...chippies! bloody love getting a nice fish and chips.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

I totally agree!

[@christinescalise6075]

Friends and I ( we are from The States) toured July 2023 and spent a lovely couple of days here. Stayed at the Glengower ( one of those coastal hotels you mentioned). It was wonderful! Walked the castle, the pier and did some shopping near the Uni. And of course we did the railway - watched a storm roll in from the top. Would go back in a heartbeat! ❤

As someone who has grown up and lives in Aberystwyth this was really cool to watch! You should visit when the starlings are roosting under the pier, it’s an incredible sight

I raised my children here 12 years ago and I loved living there. It's definitely changed, it's looking amazing.

[@BigBrodle]

I can’t lie after living in Aberystwyth my whole life I’ve got a different opinion on what its like day to day. When I was younger Aber was quite a tidy cute little welsh town but as I’ve grown up it’s slowly turning sour year by year. Of course I’ll always refer to Aber as home but it hasn’t got the same character as it used to. But I can see why it’s a good tourist destination

[@AshlelaVK]

Think it's due to politics, immigration or just the way life goes? Sorry to hear that, it's a similar case right here where I live. I still think the UK is the greatest country in the world💛

Yes Aber has definitely gone downhill since the recession, but then that's the case for a lot of places.

Recently went to sons graduation, visit there 5 or 6 times a year. The ‘tree trunks’ on the Pier beer garden are now complete and have branches that light up in the evening and can be seen down other end of coast at North beach, looks much better than I am describing. Stayed at Queensbridge Hotel, cheap-ish and cheerful, no allocated parking, but the view from rooms with bay window on front of building make it look like you are waking up at sea.

In November of 2017, actually on Guy Fawks day, I was in Aberystwyth, a nice town not only as a seaside resort, but an important place of Welsh history and culture. I live in the USA and a few days after I returned, I was watching a show on our PBS network that was new to me, 'Hinterland'. I was pleasantly surprised I recognized the base setting of the series was set in the town I was in only a few days before. I suspect very few in the USA (or even in Wales) would have recognized what town it was.

Very recently moved from Aber after a 4 year stint at the university.

Love visiting Aberystwyth especially when the weathers good….Colwyn Bay used to have quite a long pier but it was demolished a few years ago due to neglect, what’s there now was put in place a couple years ago. I think the shortest pier in the UK is in Burnham on Sea, another town worthy of a visit if you get a chance.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

ill check it out ;-)

[@basylpeterjones]

Only Phase 1 of Colwyn Bay's pier has happened so far. They have a Victoria Pier Trust shop that's moved to the main Street. Phase 2 and 3 are on their way. I always thought it should be a pleasure pier rather than what the original vision seemed to be but you can't complain - what they're doing is groundbreaking stuff, beating Felixstowe and Skegness to it. It's still officially the same Victoria Pier as well - some of the original structure was used and other saved features retained and included.

[@MeadowDay]

Basyl Peter Jones that’s so good to hear, wonder when it will be completed.

[@basylpeterjones]

@@MeadowDay I imagine it will take shape slowly. They're welcoming opinions on how it should develop. I believe in traditional seaside tourism but many people are very negative about that. It divides opinion.

[@dylanmcfarland8356]

Now, I've been a regular visitor to Aberystwyth myself and from _my_ experience alone it is a _great_ town! For example, there is a charity shop situated on what I think used to be a Platform 2, and there plenty of charity shops dotted around the town as well, like I know this Oxfam charity shop where I picked up this book of The Monkees one time and the first season of Star Trek another. And don't even get me started on the fish and chips - they taste amazing! In fact, the fish and chips shop on the pier is one of the best (if not, _the_ best) fish and chip shops I've had the pleasure to dine at so long as you ignore the fact that it tends to fill your tummy very quick, but still it's the best fish and chips shop there and still can't be beat. You can even get bus services to Aberaeron, Llanarth and Cardigan there and travel to whatever holiday home you've booked near Aberystwyth. It's one of the best towns I've been to in Wales and still cannot be beat!

I studied in Aberystwyth in the mid-90s. You actually can't see the cliff railway from the harbour; what you can see is the South Beach (which is part of the old town) and the castle. The main seafront (the North Beach) is round the corner from there. Incidentally, the marina in the harbour was built in the early 90s and was bitterly opposed by many in the town, especially Welsh nationalists. They said it would push up house prices and make this part of Wales another playground for the English rich (I remember that phrase from the student magazine, the Courier, which I got hold of an old copy of as it was well before the time I was there).

[@WalkWithMeTim]
