Betws-y-Coed to Bwlch

We moved today to Bwlch in the Brecon Beacons area.
As we left Betws-y-Coed we got instructions on how to find a bridge built by the Romans about 2000 years ago from Michael the Airbnb owner. Found the bridge after the occasional wrong turn. It is a very narrow stone bridge over a raging torrent. It is amazing that it is still tanding after all this time.
After settling in at Bwlch, and because it was raining fairly heavily, we met Geoffs old friend Barbara and her husband Simon at The Big Pit, a coal mining museum that includes a tour underground. The guide we had was an ex-miner and was very knowledgeable and entertaining.
We then went out for a very enjoyable dinner with Barbara and Simon to the Coach and Horses Inn.Read more
