And there’s horse riding from Nolton stables, some 20 minutes away, to the beach at Nolton Haven.
Andrew is on the tourist trail too as he visits the National Showcaves Centre for Wales in the upper Swansea valley and discovers how the caves were first discovered by two local brothers.

He ends the day with a visit to the cathedral cave which houses 40ft waterfalls.
