Bronz Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 Cos I'm such a romantic I thought I'd opt for a camping road-trip holiday this year, as opposed to taking the missus to quiet sunny beaches. Just wondering if any of you guys can recommend some good campsites and/or nice places down the west coast (we're thinking Wales down to Cornwall). Cheers, Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Box Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 Last year I rode from North to South Wales, I remember the Barmouth/Dolgellau area being particularly nice, and a campsite called 'Trericket Mill' a bit more toward the Brecons. Make sure you go through Snowdonia! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish-Finger-er Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 yea, i like dolgellau, but then thats cos i spent so much time round there as a youth, i know all the cool places. to go. it depends what your into really. id avoid barmouth, an stay in fairbourne, quieter, nice beach, and its got places like this. Friog lake which are just real quiet unknown places(u have to enter into the lake by a tunnel, and its really nice just being in there chillin in the sun, as your the only people in there, if your so inclined, the waters always majorly warm too. 4 miles in land from theres, theres an awesome little pub/restaurant, with tables outside that overlook the river, sittin there with a bottle of wine one evening watchin the seals come up the river. as the sun goes down, is practically guaranteed romance in a £20 bar meal. the george inn. theres a couple of campsites in fairbourne, all of which are ok. can recommend you a nice one in dolgellau, on the side of the river, with an ancient abbey built into it( my mum owns a static caravan on the site) if you choose to stay around that area, let us know, i can throw you reams and reams of information about places to do, things to see, where to eat etc. as you travel town, newquay in south wales is a real nice place to stay.other than that, im out of info.
