Moving day today into Wales. Got packed up ready to tow the 50 or so miles to Fforest Fields Campsite at Hundred House, near Builth Wells, Powys, Wales.
Towing Kilometres – Today: 82 – Cumulative: 308
We took a nice A road route despite Fords Sat Nav urging me to turn onto any un-named road that it came across. The Ford system is already giving some cause for concern. It doesn’t give enough options of roads you wish to avoid. Otherwise the car feels like a good choice for the task ahead.
We arrived just before 3pm to be greeted by cheerful, friendly, staff who directed us to our pitch. The campsite offers excellent views all around and the opportunity for some healthy walks 🙂
We made a much better job of putting up the awning than we had at Ledbury, which was just as well as the rain hammered down for the next few hours.
Neither of us felt much like going out to eat so it was a case of a simple jacket spud, cheese, and beans for tea.
