Lacock, Tintern Abbey and Brecon Beacons

Leaving Wiltshire and off to Wales today.  First stop on the way is Lacock, an old Medieval village where only the locals are allowed in with their cars.  Parked in the public car park and walked into town, very picturesque with lots of old buildings, some looking a little bit worse for wear.
Over the Severn Estuary into Wales and went straight to the Tintern Abbey.  Another old building, built by the Monks a thousand years ago, Henry VIII kicked them out, the locals stole all the lead off the roof and the roof collapsed and it has remained a ruin since.  Huge building and very well preserved, lots of interesting history well presented.
To the Brecon Beacons where we will be staying at Aberdare.  We turned the satnav off and drove in to and around some interesting National Park.  Did a couple of little walks near the Talybont Reservoir and ended up at the Butchers Arms pub at Pontsticill at 4pm for a late lunch/early tea, couldn't keep the owner quiet, he brews his own beer and sells it in the pub, had spent some time in Australia and was very friendly. 
Drove up to the lookout on Craig y Llyn near our B&B took some photos before nearly freezing to death.
Got to our B&B at Lila Cysglyd Pen y banc Cefn Rhigos (you try and find THAT in a satnav!!!) just as the weather started closing in.

We are always the first at any place in the morning, noone seems to get out of bed till 10am.
