Wales in December, warm camping?

Post by stevewatkin »

I'm normally a camper but for this December i have chickened out !!
Anyone got any ideas where i can stay in the warm and dry without spending a fortune ? Thinking solo occupancy in huts / yurts / budget B&B / hostels etc. Not too keen on dorms 'cos i snore so just wondering what's out there ?
Main purpose of the break is to ride around the area local to where i stay and find new roads.

Steve,worth trying the Lamb and Flag in Rhayader. They have a 2bed bunkhouse,which you might get at a reasonable cost this time of year? Great roads around there too (thumbs)

I've stayed in the Hand Hotel (band) Llangollen a few times it's always been fairly reasonably priced, rooms are ok.

Cheers guys, keep em coming.
Anywhere will do, even other locations in the UK.
Maybe Northumbria or Southern Scotland.
Need a break so some touring on the 400 Sym will be good.
