Sex Education filming locations in Wales and how you can visit the places featured in the Netflix series

THE raunchy Netflix series Sex Education is back on our screens with its second series, following the success of the first season.
We reveal where the show is filmed and how you can visit them yourself.
Despite many American elements to the series, the show is actually filmed in Wales in the UK.
A common scene in the TV series is Otis and Eric cycling to school, with this taking place across the Old Railway Bridge at Tintern.
Series 2 has some new locations, such as the military school where Adam gets sent, which is filmed at Margam Country Park and Castle.
We've rounded up some of the iconic locations in the series, and how you can visit them.
Otis' house
One of the most beautiful locations is Otis and Jean's house.

The river beneath the house is the River Wye.
Ola's House
The house which Ola, who lives with her dad Jakob, is even available to stay in.
Located in the Forest of Dean, the property is called The Bull Pen at .
While little is filmed inside the house with the majority of interactions taking place outside, the four-bedroom property includes a hot tub and garden area which welcomes dogs.
The interior retains some of the 70s style which is used in the series.
Moordale School
The school in the series, Moordale School, is actually filmed at an old university.
It is located at the University of South Wales in Newport, which closed down in 2016.
The Caerleon campus is where most of the show is shot, with the hall scenes filmed in in Penarth.
The venue is often used for live musical performances, as it is owned by the council.
Brown's Village Stores
The shop which the teenagers often visit, and the one Adam and Ola work in, is called Brown's Village Stores.
Keeping the same name in the TV series, it is named after the owners who first opened in 1928.
Roger Brown, who has been running the shop in Llandudno since 1958, told the Guardian that they are "continuously" asked about the show.
Thankfully, he said it was "amazing" that fans were enjoying it.
Other homes include Aimee's house, filmed at Bigsweir House, and Maeve's caravan, filmed at Sterrett’s Caravan Park.
Visiting Newport is easy as it is just 90 minutes by train from London.
To get to Symonds Yat, it is another 40 minute drive from Newport.
Other filming locations are a bit further - Margam Country Park and Castle is near Port Talbot while the village store in Llandudno is in the north of Wales.
