Barmouth


A big jump up from Pembrokeshire to the town of Barmouth, on the edge of Snowdonia. The coast drive up here is pretty uneventful and you can't help thinking you should be exploring in-land through the Cambrian Mountains, but this trip is about the coast so they can wait for another day. I probably should have stopped and explored Aberystwyth but it seemed very busy and not that exciting to be honest.

Barmouth is a classic "old school" holiday resort but with a mountain backdrop. I arrived as the weather closed in and black clouds descended. So, these photographs show a classic British holiday resort on the longest day, 4 days short of midsummers day!
