Opportunities are few and far between to get out and about atm, but I may have one coming up and need some help with planning.
I have a training day on a Friday in November which starts at 8am in Swansea. I need to stay somewhere local the night before so I thought I would squeeze in a day's bushcraft on the Thursday, sleep outdoors then head for my seminar - could get there by lunchtime, play in the 4-5hrs of daylight remaining, bed down ready to break camp in the dark the next morning around 7.00. Ambitious I know, but needs must.
I'll need to grab a shower before I head in. And since I'll be breaking camp in the dark I don't want to be in terrain too challenging - a good 'bushcrafty' campsite might be ideal (with trees for hammocking).
So what are your thoughts on:
Wild-ish hammock camping within 45mins drive of Swansea.
Campsite/service station with shower on the way in.
Is this just unrealistic, I could just spend the afternoon in the Beacons and head for a guesthouse, but where's the fun in that?
