Shell Island Campsite, on the coast ( place looks nice with bars and a restaurant on site ) :roll: :roll: ( £8.75 ) tent pitch... Camping, YIK !!! but cheap :(

Saturday, going via LLanberis / Snowdonia scenic route to Caernarfon ( for lunch ) then onto Anglesey a quick ride around then staying at a B & B in the middle of Anglesey. Did I mention drinks.... yes for drinks..

Sunday, Via swallow falls and a scenic route back , maybe via Conway then Home....back to Yorkshire

A trip over the footbridge at Barmouth is well recommended (PTWs are allowed), but ideally when the toll booth is shut!
