• Hay-on-Wye and Margam.

    June 19, 2015 in Wales ⋅ ☀️ 14 °C

    Started the day with a short drive and then a cup of tea in Hay-on-Wye. We spent most of the morning checking out the books, antiques, junk shops etc and had lovely healthy open sandwiches before driving through more scenic Wales to Margam.
    Margam is not far from the steel works of Port Talbert which also has a surprise beach and resort where the circus had set up for summer.
    The B & B, The Barn B&B and Tyn Cellar Farm, is in a rural location near a busy road. We had trouble finding it. It turned out that we had gone directly to the right spot first time, but the sign was hidden by a bushy tree. On one of the occasions we stopped to check the map again, a man offered help. He knew where we had to go and directed us. As we set off he drove in front of us to direct us, pointing to our destination when we arrived. He then just went on his way.
    Relaxed for a couple of hours before heading out to a local pub for dinner. Had a lovely meal at the Prince of Wales Hotel.
