💡 Good to know for this plan
- ~11.3 hours of daylight in April — the plan keeps days inside a realistic window.
- The reviewed autumn baseline still requires same-day roadworks, weather, visibility, animal, vehicle and public-access checks.
- Light days: day 1, day 2 have one stop and time left over. Local tours and day trips are the way to fill them — each day links to what is bookable in its own town.
