Know Wales - Local knowledge for living in and visiting Wales.

Know Wales is local knowledge for living in and visiting Wales. When you are about to spend money in a Welsh town — a taxi, a meal, a bed for the night, a tradesman, an MOT, a day out — you can open that town and see what it actually costs, what to expect, and who you can use. Facts are dated. Language is plain. The list of names stays short. The site is organised town by town across Wales, so the answer is for this place, not a generic blur. Residents use it on an ordinary Tuesday. Visitors use it on their first night. Either way, you spend with a clearer picture. Taxi fares. Read the published hackney fare for that town: the flag, the mile, and what changes after midnight, dated, with the official source named. You know what a licensed taxi is allowed to charge before you get in. A booked private-hire price is agreed when you book; the page shows which figure is which. Food. See what a meal is likely to cost in that town, and who is worth ringing, so you arrive knowing the range rather than guessing from a national list. Stays. See what a night is likely to cost, what the place is like, and who to contact, so the first night is planned rather than a surprise. Trades. Find a local firm you can ring for the job in that town, with a dated fact you can check and a short list of names you can actually use. MOT. See the legal maximum for a Class 4 test, dated, and who to book in that town. Stations set their own price up to that cap; the page shows the figure and the people you can use. Days out. See what is worth doing in the town, what it costs, and what to expect, so a free afternoon or a first visit has a plan. Each number is checked against official and government sites, public records, and Know Wales research, then written for that town and dated before it is published. The official source on the page is the evidence. The published knowledge is Know Wales. Live bookings still belong with the operator. We publish what was true when we last checked. Know Wales covers 157 towns across Wales. Public contact is email: info@knowwales.co.uk. https://knowwales.co.uk
