Aberystwyth is a University town and the largest town in Mid Wales, home to the National Library of Wales. For the best view of the town climb the steep Constitution Hill, either on foot or aboard the Aberystwyth Cliff Railway; the longest funicular electric railway in Britain.
New Quay is a picturesque town on the Mid Wales coast. From the harbour, you can see the famous Cardigan Bay dolphins most days in the summer.
Aberaeron's Georgian architecture was deemed so picturesque that it was featured on postage stamps. This fishing village is world famous for the quality of its honey (plus honey ice-cream and honey mustard produced locally) and also features prominently on the Dylan Thomas trail.
In Cardigan, the town's buildings are predominately Georgian and Victorian in style, many of which are in use as boutiques, traditional shops, inns and places to eat and drink. There is a wealth of local food producers in the surrounding area, and their produce is found on many menus throughout the town.
