There is also a trip to the famous Lundy Island planned for Saturday (at extra cost). The walks will be pleasant undulating costal walking (about 10- 12 miles, Grade C) with time to explore some of North Devon's finest beaches and enjoy the stunning views from the cliff-top paths. We are well poised, being near the centre of the town, to experience the delights of the Ilfracoombe night -life, and who knows, we might even end up in the 'famous' Lucky's night club. The cost for 3 nights accommodation is a snip at just £45, payable to the R.A - Notts and Derby Group.	$Ilfracombe$

NDWG has bagged sole use of the Canal Bunkhouse, a modern independent bunkhouse in the historic market town of Brecon. We'll be but a few miles from the main attraction of Pen-y-Fan and Fan-y-Big and only a little further away from some of the park's better kept secrets. Twenty four spaces are available at £37 for two nights, which inlcudes the NDWG booking fee.
