A major campsite in Wales has been left praying for rain this weekend after weeks of hot weather. Shell Island, in Llanbedr near Harlech, has one of Europe’s biggest campsites with a capacity for 800 pitches. It welcomes around 200,000 people a year.
While holidaymakers are regularly met with unspoilt countryside and lush green fields, 40 days of little to no rain has left the grass at the site with brown wilting grass.
With Porthmadog recording in excess of 30C on Tuesday, the ongoing hot weather has left the campsite hoping this weekend's forecast for some downpours holds true, North Wales Live reports.
