Wales Coast Path 'brings £32m to economy' over a year

The Wales Coast Path attracted nearly three million visitors and brought £32m to the economy over 12 months, figures suggest.

Tourism bosses said it had added "another dimension" to the attraction of walking in Wales.

The coastal path stretches 870 miles (1,400km) from the River Dee in Flintshire to Chepstow in the south.

Work on the path, the world's first round an entire country, began in 2007 with the formal opening in May 2012.

Radio Wales reporter Sarah Moore visited the Cartws café on a new stretch of the path at Penbryn, in Ceredigion.

Since May it has been run by Tarron Freeman-Carr and his wife and sister, and - surprised by the number of walkers who pass through - they have decided to stay open all year round.
