"I am 63 years old now and have been coming to Barmouth since 1 was 3 years old. Back then we came by steam train and a horse and cart would take us to Caerddaniel to stay in one of a handful of small caravans. I have been many places over the years but always return to Barmouth. So congratulations on all the work you are doing and remember it’s always the few that make the difference" Roy Brooks,  Smethwick
 
"I wanted to tell you that the Palms look really great! I was in Barmouth in October 2006 for the day. I don't often get back to the UK, but when I do, I always visit Barmouth. I have the most wonderful memories of that town and it's people, and I always will." Christine, San Francisco
 
"How fantastic, a group dedicated to improving - Barmouth for locals and tourists alike. The work so far looks great, as a regular visitor to Barmouth I will be able to see it first hand- I can't wait. Give yourselves a huge pat on the back you're doing a great job" John Williams
 
"My mum was born in Barmouth and many of my family still live there. I returned home, as i feel it is, twice last year after many years. Things had changed but the town still takes my breath away and now several of my children are as in love with it as me. My youngest fell so in love with Wales she is teaching herself welsh so she can speak to people when she visits this year. Not bad for an 8 year old from Kent. We have been watching the dolphin statue and palm trees on your webpage and can't wait to see them for real .Keep up your brilliant work and good luck to you." Sue Radford and family . Lydd-on-sea, Kent

We holiday in Harlech every summer and make regular day trips down to Barmouth.I just wanted to write to say how much the palm trees have improved the promenade and it is great to read about all the good work that you are doing Scott Barton, Sheffield. 15th August 08.  
 
I am writing to you to congratulate you on your efforts during the past few months with the addition of the wonderful palm trees dotted around town, and the lovely new water feature at the harbour celebrating the Cardigan Bay Dolphins.  I have been visiting Barmouth for over 40 years and I love everything about the place.  When I read in my local paper (the Shropshire Star) of the improvements being made I was a bit apprehensive, but now I have seen the water feature and the palm trees myself, I can truly say you have done a wonderful job.  All your hard work is appreciated by all your visitors I am sure.  Barmouth will always be the No.1 resort, for me anyway, and I look forward to visiting for many years to come. Mrs June Platt, Telford. 15th August 08
