Gower Peninsula
Come escape the mad bank holiday dash and join us for some lovely seaside climbing in Wales.
Climb style: Trad and Sport (belay from the beech!). All grades so perfect for seasoned pros to those getting stuck in for the first time
Accommodation: We have a space reserved for SCC at Nicholaston Farm Campsite (www.nicholastonfarm.co.uk) which is just 5 minutes walk to the climbing. Facilities include toilets and showers (20p coin), wash areas, free use of fridges/freezers, laundry, farm shop, café and pick your own.
The campsite fees are
£15 per night for a 2 man tent (price includes 2 people)
£19 per nigh for a 3-4 man tent (price includes up to 4 people)
Electric hook up is extra
Transport: Car share. For a car it works out roughly £12 each for the return journey (Assuming 4 in a car, 50 mpg, £1.40 per litre, inc the Severn Bridge Toll). Cost will vary from car to car so this is upto the drivers. This does not include tips for the driver :).
