if you want to do a 40% downhill in a car go to Harlech, up hill at S end of castle, turn L at shops then down smal one way, don’t brake on the gravel
Portmeirion, awesome, drink in hotel, stroll on the prom etc, tour village
Barmouth (*fyi, the Last inn is about £14 for ham+eggs), second King George III , dinner there last Thu – cracking visit the Panorma viewpoint (up hill on RHS)
train – Barmouth/Aberdovey (for lunch and back, Aberdovey is nice, linear town,worth an hour)
cracking drives/viewpoints, purple haze of bluebells on Fri/sat – truly stunning
