BC 8 - The Welsh Beast 10th-12th June 2016.

First topic message reminder :

Hi Folks,

It's that time of year again, to pencil in the BC dates for 2016.

This year we have secured all 19 beds at a lovely Motorcycle orientated B&B called Bikers retreat in Dolgellau, Mid Wales, run by Nigel & Tiv, two fellow bikers. It's a place I have been considering for the last couple of years.

The beds range from £39 - £45 per person per night B&B for doubles, twins and triples (all en-suite) and one single with a private bathroom.

Deposit is paid direct to the B&B and is £30 per person, the phone number is 01341 423192, please mention Nick Shuker as it's booked in my name.

There is a bar with local beer and lagers and a bar menu, I will be visiting over the winter to establish what's best for the group with eating arrangements.

There is secure bike parking behind gates, a drying room for wet gear, and a workshop with tools and Nigel is very helpful and knowledgeable apparently.

There will be other accommodation available in the area, if required.

Feel free to ask any questions.

My thoughts -

Water pressures crap but I managed!
Steph and I were the last ones standing in the bar so space wasn't an issue

Tired decor but we were wet and dirty so it was appropriate. Drying facilities a bonus.

I wouldn't want a load of mucky bikers ruining my carpets.

Food was fine, not cheap but only 17 covers & 3 staff to employ?!  


I'd stay there again - no problem.

If you want a room to yourself - book early.

Ok Ladies & Gents, I've had an email chat with Tiv today who says Nigel has been having a look at our forum & has taken the feedback on board, I'm led to believe the water pressure issue is in hand & there is now baked beans on the breakfast!
On this fact alone I've rebooked us in for 2017! Weekend of May 19/20th.
No deposit required until new year but you can book your place by contacting Nigel or Tiv who will allocate you a room/bed
Cheers Nick
