Activities & Shift

The location is rural, but only two miles from the small town of Newcastle Emlyn, and 8 miles from the sea. There are castles and beaches to visit, as well as footpaths to go walking by woods and rivers. From Newcastle Emlyn there are regular buses to the bigger towns of Cardigan and Carmarthen. Pembrokeshire coast national park is to the south and Snowdonia national park is to the north.

We have travelled quite a lot in the past , but now that we are farming we can not travel much, so we like to invite the world to us.
We live in a rural location with gentle rolling hills and a beautiful coast is near by. We would like to help you to enjoy this landscape and absorb the peaceful surroundings.
You can learn about organic farming and the busy lifestyle that we lead in order to provide good food for local people.
And if you are interested in languages both of our children can speak Welsh.
