Waterloo

No, not the famous Abba song, but the internationally renowned Waterloo bowling club location in Blackpool will no longer be hosting events. You may have seen their televised competitions. The club’s Committee and the ground owners could not agree a new lease, especially as a lot of expenditure was needed on the stadium. The “Waterloo” events will now be held at Fleetwood Bowling Club.

Why Travel Far?

The stunning North Wales coastline includes the following view around Morfa Nefyn on the Llŷn Peninsula. Why not give the thought of flying abroad a miss and instead explore the beautiful places on our doorstep.

Remember too that near Morfa Nefyn is the “3rd Best Beach Bar in the World”, i.e. the Ty Coch Inn (below) at Porthdinllaen, as judged in 2013 by travel website Cheapflights.co.uk.
