Ah, it's the Brevet Cymru. Llangattock community hall. The calendar entry does say "sleeping facilities en route" so I'd expect there to be blankets and mats.
Never done it (but wanted to) so don't know how people approach it, but usually people will try to build up some time on the first 340km so they can get a few hours kip before setting off for the last 60km.
i.e. 6am start, so 9am finish on the Sunday so get to the rest stop at 2am and aim to leave at 5am or so giving a safe 4h to get to the finish.
The faster lot may get there before midnight for an even better sleep.
One time I'll time it right to help out as we have friends who live in Llangattock.
