Much of the UK is on flood alert after torrential rain and strong winds left motorists trapped in cars and homes swamped by water. Scotland has been worst hit by the downpours, with several severe flood warnings in force, while fire crews in parts of Wales had to pluck people from houses and cars and many train services were cancelled because of the floods.

Overview
Brecon Beacons
For a small country Wales has a lot to offer. With dramatic mountains, spectacular seashores, tumbling rivers, fresh green valleys and Europe's largest concentrations of medieval fortresses, it is a real gem that is often overlooked by tourists.
With a name that springs from the Anglo-Saxon term 'waleas' meaning 'foreigner', it is hardly surprising that the Welsh have a unique culture, language and heritage that distinguish them from the English. Although best known for their unpronounceable place names, roaring men's choirs and fierce Rugby teams - this is a friendly and hospitable nation.
Wales is a land of nature and legend with stunning natural, unspoiled scenery that is protected by a series of large National Parks. For lovers of nature and the great outdoors Wales can be the perfect destination.
