I want you to come for a weekend in North Wales, it’s Aberdaron this week!
Firstly because it’s beautiful and there’s lots to do and see.
Secondly because I want to welcome you to our build your own Baa Stool class!
So, from every fortnight I’m going to include a complete weekend itinerary that starts with the class on Friday pm and will cover a different vibe every week.
If there’s a particular area, activity or niche you’d like me to cover please just ask – I love planning trips to this wonderful part of the world!
