Original source: Yahoo News

In Brief

A trial motorhome stopover at Porth Tyn Tywyn car park on Anglesey has sparked complaints about odor and waste in dunes. Council is reviewing the pilot.

A coastal car park trialled as a motorhome stopover site is causing a stink among walkers. People passing Porth Tyn Tywyn, near Rhosneigr, Anglesey, have complained about a foul smell and unsanitary conditions, with reports of toilet paper and faeces on footpaths and in dunes. The site is intended only for self-contained vehicles with their own facilities and has a waste disposal point.

The county council has confirmed that the trial period is currently under review. The pilot project uses three car parks as paid overnight stopovers.

Couple sells house to buy abandoned campsite in Wales

In June 2022, Jon and Emilie James sold their home for £132,000 and purchased a former miners' campsite in Llanelli, South Wales, abandoned since 1989. Over three years, they transformed the littered plot into an off-grid glamping site with a tiny house and sauna, spending £90,000 on the purchase and leaving £500 in their account. The couple lived without electricity and hot water, learning construction from YouTube tutorials. The project has attracted thousands of followers online.
