Aberystwyth Aberystwyth, locally known as ‘Aber’ is a long established seaside town and an important administrative centre at the heart of Cardigan Bay. The town features a mix of unusual attractions such as the electric cliff railway, a Victorian Camera Obscura, National Library of Wales as well as the sweeping promenade and beach. Although the town is relatively modern, there are a number of historic buildings, including the remains of the castle and the Old College of Aberystwyth University nearby. The Old College was originally built and opened in 1865 as a hotel, but after the owner's bankruptcy the shell of the building was sold to the university in 1867. The new university campus overlooks Aberystwyth from Penglais Hill to the east of the town centre.

Borth Borth comes to life in the summertime. The sand and shingle beaches are popular with families and are just a five minute walk away from the station. At low tide you may also see the remains of an ancient submerged forest, which some like to say are all that’s left of Cantre’r Gwaelod, a legendary Welsh land lost to the sea through the carelessness of its night watchman. The railway station itself features its own free museum full of items related to local railway history. More recently, it also featured in the S4C/BBC drama series ‘Hinterland’. Within Borth, you will find the Alight here to start Walk No 16 and Wild Animal Kingdom, a small zoo with a 32 from the Hotel Walk Book.

Dovey AberystwythJunction Once equipped with a signal box and a station buffet, this windswept station is now little more than a platform in the middle of a field! Should you fancy hopping off the train here for novelty value, comparative civilisation can be reached using the path from the far end of the platform. A twenty minute walk from the station takes you to the village of Eglwysfach where you will find the Ynyshir Nature Reserve or, a little further in the picturesque Dyfi Furnace. The furnace built around 1755 Alight here to start Walk No 23 was only used for about fifty years to smelt from the Hotel Walk Book. iron ore. By 1810 it had been abandoned. You will find this in the Lounge. Dovey Junction is very remote. Occasionally timings mean you have to change trains here. However if there is a long gap between trains, we recommend changing at Machynlleth. MachynllethBorth The ancient capital of Wales, Machynlleth is a typical welsh market town that has managed to hold to its own individual character. The town centre bristles with small town shops, pubs and cafes, with no chain stores in sight. Traditional butchers and household stores stand side by side to the more traditional shops selling crafts, souvenirs and antiques. Places to explore include the MOMA art gallery, housed in a former chapel and the home of Owain Glyndwr’s 15th century parliament. A short bus ride north can take you to the Centre for Alternative Technology, a pioneering project that’s been promoting more environmentally sensitive living since the 70s. It is now a leading tourist attraction, with its own water powered cliff railway.

AberystwythPenhelig Penhelig railway station (also spelt Penhelyg) serves the eastern outskirts of the seaside resort of Aberdyfi. Its situation is unusual, being located on a short length of sharply curved single track between two tunnels. Throughout the first half of 2018, Penhelig underwent a major redevelopment to improve access by replacing the timber platform and upgrading the lighting. Alight here to join the Roman Road which leads to Picnic Island. Although known as the ‘Roman Road’ it was in fact built for horse and carriage in 1808. The sea has now eroded much of this old road but it rarely floods, even at high tide it’s safe for a stroll any time of the day – just make sure you wear good shoes as it can get quite slippery when wet. Derek Brockway completed this route as part of the Weatherman Walking series. AberdoveyBorth The village of Aberdovey (Aberdyfi), which is the home of the Trefeddian was founded around the harbour and shipbuilding industry, but is now best known as a seaside resort with a high quality beach. The village centre is on the Dyfi Estuary, around the original harbour, jetty and beach but it stretches back from the coast and up the steep hillside in the midst of typical Welsh coastal scenery of steep green hills and sheep farms. The large sandy beach and dunes enjoy superb views across the Dovey Estuary to Yynyslas and backs onto the Links 18 Hole Golf Course. Aberdyfi is closely linked to the legend of the submerged lost kingdom of Cantre’r Gwaelod beneath Cardigan Bay, and bells which, it is said, can be heard ringing beneath the water at the beach. The Bells of Alight here to start Walk No 1, 18 Aberdovey (Clychau Aberdyfi) is a well and 32 from the Hotel Walk Book. known song referring to this legend. You will find this in the Lounge. AberystwythTywyn One of the largest settlements along the coast, Tywyn is another resort with a busy high street with many small independent shops. The sea front boasting a stretch of flat sandy beach, leisure park and amusement arcades is only a few hundred metres away from the station. Tywyn is also the starting point for the Talyllyn Railway, the worlds first preserved narrow gauge railway that steams its way across the hillside towards Abergynolwyn calling at the popular Dolgoch Falls along the way. The Tywyn coastal defence scheme was a £7.6m civil engineering project to provide a new rock breakwater above the low-tide level. Rock groynes, and rock revetment to protect 80 sea-front properties was officially unveiled in 2011.

You will find this in the Lounge. TonfanauBorth One of a handful of stations that came close to being shut down in the 1990’s, Tonfanau is still fairly quiet. However, it offers peace, a pleasant view and a good starting point for an easy walk south to Tywyn over the River Dysynni. In 1938 during the Second World War, an army base was created near the hamlet. Around 600 men were stationed at the camp, which specialised in training personnel in anti-aircraft artillery. In 1972 eight years after the site was closed it was reopened as refugee centre housing over 3000 Ugandans fleeing from persecution. They stayed at the site for 6 months before settling elsewhere. Dotted around you’ll see the crumbling remains of the army base that was demolished in the mid 1980’s. Part of the army base is now a well renowned motorcycling circuit where competitions are held four times a year.
