Sleep like a Welsh legend

The first pop-up boutique hotel in Wales is coming to three of the country’s most beautiful locations this summer.

Eight unique cabins inspired by Welsh legends and history, are popping up from June 5 until September 11 on sites across the Llyn Peninsula, southern Snowdonia and West Wales with space for fewer than 200 bookings before they vanish again.

Visitors will also get to experience locations which wouldn’t normally be available to stay in, including a private beach looking out to Snowdonia, as well as some with links to those legends which have inspired the accommodation, including King Arthur and the Welsh dragon itself.

Opium and chocolate oranges

York’s Chocolate Story is celebrating the 250th anniversary of Terry’s this year, with an exhibition tracing its history from apothecaries producing opium-based throat sweets to makers of the iconic chocolate orange.

A string of other products will also be on display, including old favourites such as Neapolitan, Spartan and Waifa, plus curiosities like the poison cards contained in early Terry’s confectionery warning of some less palatable contents, not least mercury.

The exhibition is open now and will run to 31 December. Entry includes the main three floors of chocolate exhibits, as well as a guided tour and the chance to sample along the way or buy unusual flavours in the shop.

Tickets cost £11.50 for adults.
