Best time to visit Wales

Wales experiences rainfall throughout the year, with the heaviest rainfall taking place between November and January (early to mid-winter). The period with the most pleasant weather is between June and August (summer). To ensure you have an enjoyable holiday experience around this time, make sure to book accommodation well in advance. Take note that hotel rates reach their peak during these months, especially in the coastal cities, like the capital, Cardiff. To get affordable hotel rooms, visit Wales between the months of April and May (spring) and between September and October (autumn). During spring, the month of May offers moderate temperatures. September (early autumn) still offers some of the warmth of summer, but be prepared for an increase in rain, which begins around August. Regardless of what time you go, make sure to check the weather reports for the regions you plan to visit, as the weather of the British Isles has been known to change quickly during the day.
