Wales.gov has only 1 test lab to choose from for travellers returning from a amber country. England you have a choice.
If I return from an amber country into an English airport, but my ultimate destination is Wales. What labs can I use. Am I to use the lab Wales.gov state you must use. Or some of the cheaper ones available to English travellers. Thanks.

"Getting a test in a country you transit through

It is your responsibility to make sure you have a valid test result to show when you board. ***You should not rely on being able to get a test in a country that you will transit through as part of your journey to Wales. It is possible that local or entry restrictions will mean you are not able to get a test.*** [my emphasis]

If you don’t have a test result because you were unable to get one in a country you transited through, and you are not permitted to enter the transit country, you will be allowed to board your transport to Wales. But you could be fined £500 on arrival in Wales for not having a valid test result."

By stating, "You should not rely etc." that must mean having a test elsewhere, such as in England, prior to entering Wales, must be an option.
once you land in England, get sorted in England then go to Wales, they ain't got border posts you know!
what do you think's going to happen? TaffI5 are going to bang on your door and demand a Welsh test? PMSL!
