It can get rather chilly on the Welsh coast as the nights draw in, but there's no doubting the invigorating effect. We just need safe harbour for after, that's all.

Well, these three leg stretchers are not only scenic, with plenty of historical nuggets, they all feature a warm, snug haven for you to regain finger movement and de-crimsonise the nose…
