Friday 18th July
Meet at The Star Chessington at 08:30 for a 09:00 departure. It is a 250 mile journey to North West Wales which initially will take us on motorways for 85 miles before we traverse cross country on some lovely riding roads through mid Wales.
As it is a fairly long ride we are planning with a short “technical rest” to stretch our legs after 1 hour, then a coffee break and petrol before stopping for lunch around 13:30. Final stretch including coffee and petrol before arriving at 17:00.
Plas Dolmelynllyn Country Hotel, Ganllwyd, Dolgellau within the Snowdonia National Park will be our base for the

After breakfast return to Surrey. Again on scenic country roads before we pick up the Motorways for the final 85 miles back to The Star.
Staying in the Snowdonia National Park is expensive but much less so than staying in Portmeirion itself; and so yes these prices are correct! Approx Cost: £ 60 – 75 pppn B&B (subject to confirmation).
