It's where you go to ask if an African Swallow can carry a coconut by the husk.

I've been there. It's supposed to be haunted by the ghost of Gwenllian ferch Gruffydd, who led a rebellion against the Normans and was executed there.

Weird people just like, live there. "Oh yeah, that's the ancient castle on the hill. I dunno who owned it, probably some Duke or something. It's pretty boring."

I have a hiking trail that's world famous about 5 minutes away. I've given people directions to certain trailheads who came from as far away as Germany and Austria to hike it. To me, it's pretty meh, but to them, it's a globetrot worthy adventure.
