Went there on Saturday. The road is absolutely fine, just a couple of avoidable potholes in the tarmac. I parked on the rough stuff just past the end of the tarmac. One other car when I arrived (9am), lots and lots when I left (3pm).
It's a beautiful valley full of boulders, gorse, juniper, buttercups, bog asphodel, foxgloves fighting with bracken, and heather already in bloom.
