  • Have you ever wondered why you should visit Towyn, in North Wales? Have you ever wondered why you should visit Rhyl in North Wales?
    If so, then chances are, you haven't been to either of them.
    For many years, Rhyl has been a family favourite resort in North Wales, but more recently, many people have been favouring Rhyl's close neighbour, Towyn.
    Even though we live in North Wales and have been to Rhyl hundreds of times since being a small child back in the 80's, but Towyn is a place that we've hardly explored. So we decided to head over to Towyn to see what all the fuss was about, and to make the day even more fun, we decided to do this ultimate guide and comparison between Rhyl and Towyn, and show all of the best things there are to do.
    In this Rhyl and Towyn, North Wales vlog, we compare everything from parking costs, the funfair, the beach, the amusement arcades, things to do in the town and much more.
    But who will win? Will it be the newly discovered Towyn, or the old favourite, Rhyl?
    This Towyn and Rhyl, North Wales vlog is obviously only our opinion, so if you've ever thought of paying one of these Welsh beach resort towns a visit, then be sure to check out this video first to get a heads up on the top things to do in Towyn and Rhyl.
    As always in our vlogs, we sum the day up at home with a well deserved drink.
    We hope you like this Rhyl and Towyn vlog, if so, it would be great if you could maybe, 'Like' the video, maybe leave us a comment, or even consider describing to the channel, it would be hugely appreciated.
    And as we always say in Postcard and a Pint - Cheers To The Good Times x

    ⭐ About Postcard & A Pint:
    Welcome to the official Postcard & A Pint UA-cam channel.
    Postcard & A Pint was thought up by my partner, Rachel & myself, Wills one day while taking our daily 1 hour exercise during the lockdown of 2020. All of a sudden, we were spending more time together, not working 6 or 7 days a week in the arts industry, and binge watching travel programs, and we were actually really enjoying it, and it made us re-evaluate what was important in life for us. Now back to working 6 or 7 days a week again, with very little time off, our happy time is getting out there on our brief times off together and making short travel videos that we are now sharing with you. It's just a bit of fun, and great for our sanity. Your support is hugely appreciated x

    I suggest you send your video tot the city councils. Maybe send to the local tourist office, you'll be doing them a favour. I'm sure there will be a kitty for small changes somewhere waiting to be used to clean up the lake park... I'd prefer Rhyl as the holiday park is out of town. That would suit me better as would the walk on the beach. Awesome comparison and the councils ought to take note. Even Towyn as good can always become better! Great video. 💖😎🇳🇱🙋‍♀🇳🇿

We couldn't decide whether we have ever been to Towyn, maybe when we were children. To be fair, both look like great seaside seaside resorts, but the beach at Rhyl would pip it for us too ⛱️ 😊👍.

Rhyl or Towyn”love Rachels comedic input though, genius. Right, boo, you’ve done it again, we’ve pushed this video back six weeks already but with your crazy insight, you beat us again to the 2ps ffs.

Definitely worth a dabble in food reviews, even the massive channels started off small and we are noticing a few travel channels that do food reviews which take off. Its going to be any excuse for us not tp drive 7/8 hours to do a hike that nobody gives two hoots about and enjoying the food is a real bonus. Those donuts looked divine and made us very hungry!

    Great job with the review. It'd have to be really hard making resorts seem even a little bit appealing. So you almost had me with donuts. I can only go on the looks by Towyn's was a little bit too perfect and round whereas Rhyl's looked like something I'd buy. The burgers both looked pretty sad. Marginally better looking than Maccas but I'd have to give it to Rhyl because the meat didn't look as dry and limp as Towyn's. Rhyl's beach did look better but I associate it with too many sad memories. RIP Susan. We have a funny relationship with fun fairs in Oz. They're usually temp jobs set up in holiday towns and... they are just run by the dodgiest individuals. If you can't find your usual dealer they're probably working at their other job at the fun fair. They do not give AF. It is all about fleecing you. The rides are expensive and everything else is a borderline scam. I have to edit my "review" of one we went to a year or so ago. The kids loved it. I couldn't wait to leave. Fairly certain I caught everything Rach was sanitising her hands for by just being there.
    But enough whinging. This video was comedy gold. So well put together too. More donut reviews please.

      Thanks Shane. The 2nd half of your comment about fairs pretty much sums up Rhyl!!! (Probably Towyn too). Susan’s children live on in Rhyl and are ready to take on the Red Arrows as they return for the airshow this year! Towyn is somewhere we’ve only ever driven through before, so it was quite the revelation when we stopped. The beach at Rhyl is stunning, I just wish they’d smarten the poor place up a bit. Cheers for watching, thankfull my hand sanitiser worked and no fore said diseases were contracted in rhyl!! Cheers 🍻

    Just watched and I am shocked at just how much some of the rides were! @ 2.45 you can see a price list 25 credits needed to have a ride on the ghost train and 25 credits to ride the waltzer. if you did both you need 50 credits. The poster next to that show you can buy 55 credits for £40 so that works out a nearly £20 for one ride. They are having a laugh! Who can afford that, do the rich and famous frequent this fair?

    • @PostcardAndAPint
      @PostcardAndAPint  3 місяці тому

      It's 2.5, so it did work out comparable to other fairs we've been to. Fairs are still pretty expensive compared to how they used to be, but this one had good rides and was fairly priced. Cheers for watching 🍻
