We're driving from Sussex on the Friday night after work (leaving about 7pm so don't really want to go too far North or anywhere really hard to find because it will be late when we arrive.

North Wales is where the scenery is:
Snowdonia for mountains
Castles at Conwy, Harlech, Caernarfon, Beaumaris to name a few
And probably the most beautiful place to visit and stay is Portmeirion. See the website - gorgeous. It's where the Prisoner was filmed.

North Pembrokeshire. St Davids area. Sandy beaches and coves, friendly people, amazing pool of arts and craft talent. Go to Solva. It's a beautiful harbour village with a nice pub called the harbour inn.

Although it is North - Betws y Coed up the A5 is stunning and not too expensive place to stay - you will be amazed by the scenery when you awake the next day - and also not too far to explore the mountain scenery or coast.

llanberis is a beautifill little village on the shore of a huge lake.the train that goes up mount snowdonia leaves from llanberis and its well worth the trip,there is also an old slate mine that is now a working museum,and hydro mountain which is totally mind boggling,and to top it all off its not bad for a night out on the piss.

Laugharne pronounced Larn is a lovely little seaside village, Dylan Thomas did most of his writing. Just round the headland is where his place is.

Pembrokeshire - beautiful countryside, gentler than northern wales, lots of sandy beaches, coves and castles - if you don't wwant to go too far, drive to the gower peninsular, where it all starts - its beautiful!
