I was initially going to base myself in Barmouth but switched to Aberystwyth instead, due to the accommodation being significantly cheaper.

Did you enjoy the premier bracing Lincolnshire seaside resort? ;)

Town is a bit naff but the beach was very nice in the warm evening sunshine! Timed it well as the 17:30 back skips Grantham (although I will have spent nearly 4hrs on these dogboxes by the time I get to Notts for an evening HST hunt)
