Very good weather

We really liked this site and the area, perhaps in part because we had very good weather. The CL is south facing catching all the sun and has panoramic views over the coast and hills. We stayed 4 nights giving us 3 complete days. In addition to chilling out on site, on day 1 in the morning we walked along the back road to Harlech for coffee and to see the Castle returning along the beach and the Wales Coastal Path which passes the site. In the afternoon we continued on the Wales Coastal Path to the beach at Llandanwg and an ice cream. Day 2 we walked on back routes to the nearby disused slate mine for coffee, Llanbedr for lunch (where there are 2 x pubs, a small café and a small shop) and back along the Wales Coast Path to LLandanwg following the Afon (River) Glaslyn. On day 3 we caught the Lloyds G23 bus to Porthmadog (36 mins there - 30 mins back - £1.75 each way) from the bus stop above the site. Porthmadog is where the main shops and supermarkets are and is the start of the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highlands narrow gauge railways. From Porthmadog we walked a short distance along the Wales Coastal Path to Borth-y-Gest and back which was scenic. The G23 passes through Porthmadog to the entrance of Portmeirion at Minffordd and then back to Harlech, the site and on to Barmouth. If you are only visiting Porthmadog, its important to get off in the High Street opposite Tesco or The Australian pub by Porthmadog Parc as before you know it you will be heading to Portmeirion and back to the site! The arrival and return bus stop is on the same side of the road. When we left the site, we drove through Barmouth which is also worthy of a visit. The area is well served with the coastal RW which we didn’t have time to use.
