Guest Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Hi All,I have a week off coming up, and am thinking about a trip up into Wales..I have a mate in haverfordwest (HFW), so would try and pop down and see him at some point..what are your thoughts, anywhere i should definately go? or avoid? I'll be travelling on my own and B&B/pub for accom.. saves on luggage/ finding campsites etc..any websites to get info on accom and places.. it would take me 6-7 hours just to get to HFW, so want to take a few days over it, poss stop in the north on the way down, and then at his, then come across towards cardiff, then home.. but open to suggestions...Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
