    PC Top 100 Sites

    Thank you everyone for your replies, and Parksy for checking how the scoring is worked out.

    sites in wales

    Try Bryn Cloch. Ask for Field 5 the views are breathtaking. Not much on the site but very clean and some pitches are huge. Only 10 miutes from Caernafon but the drive to Beddgelert in the other direction is stunning. Also the pub nearby does fantastic food. Good
