Normally I would never reveal the location of a wild camp however this place is a bit of an open secret for Llanelli locals and well documented by the zombie loving post-apocalyptic community. Being located on a spit of land just behind a golf course just off the coastal path and scarcely above sea level. bing map link
Frequented by the occasional dog walker with evidence of at least one homeless person in residence recently. Several stone fire circles on the rocky ground to seaward strangely devoid of beer cans and the usual party going detritus. Inside the sheltered portion of the abandoned rifle range was another story, cans, bottles and disposable bar-b-queue's in abundance. Good foraging for driftwood on the shoreline and as the whole area is tidal then fishing is probably not bad either. Whilst woefully short of tree cover the gorse makes an effective wind break and the ground is covered in a lush mat of thick grass and soft moss. Alas no good freshwater source on site though rain does collect the surface in one area, however a quick taste taste reveals some salt contamination. Good enough for washing feet, pots and food prep but less so for drinking.
Definitely on my To-Do list for a quick overnighter when the warmer weather returns. This afternoon the breeze was so cold it was sucking the power out of my camera batteries.
