Llandovery bunkhouse visitors get chance to try eco-friendly vehicles

Visitors to a Carmarthenshire bunkhouse and bistro are being offered the chance to get behind the wheel of eco-friendly vehicles.
Throughout August, The Level Crossing in Llandovery will be home to a Twizy electric car and two eBicycles.
Both the part car/part scooter, which is powered using solar, hydro and wind energy, and bicycles are available to hire.
The idea is to promote sustainable travel and reduce carbon footprint.
The venture is primarily aimed at walkers and cyclists with secure storage and washing facilities for mountain bikes available.
Open since May and located near to Llandovery Station, The Level Crossing bunkhouse is a community interest company that offers modern accommodation, food and a friendly bar.
On the doorstep of the western Brecon Beacons and the Cambrian Mountains, there is something for everyone to enjoy here - mountains, lakes, castles, gardens and market towns. The area can satisfy the most energetic mountain biker to the more relaxed walker or keen gardener.
A grant of over £41,000 was provided by Collaborative Communities – a partnership project formed between the County Voluntary Councils and local authorities in Pembrokeshire, Carmarthenshire, Swansea and Neath Port Talbot, to help voluntary and community organisations become financially sustainable and to promote Social Enterprises Funding to help – to help fund the start up.
