Wales Blog - Day 4! (Tuesday)

Hi Guys!

Today we decided to have a quiet-ish day after your hectic one yesterday! We went into Llandeilo for lunch - we ate in a hotel called The Cawdor, and went into the little bar restaurant. It was very delicious, with both large meals and snack type lunches!

We had a very brief look round the shops in Llandeilo, and went to our favourite shop called 'The Cuckoo's Nest' before heading back to the car!

We decided to go for a drive to a reservoir called 'Usk', which was pretty stunning...

Afterwards, we drive back to the farm and relaxed for the second half of the afternoon. I finished the 'Matched' trilogy that I have been reading - book review coming soon - and me and Frankie walked around the farm and saw the animals!

Wales Blog - Day 3! (Monday)

Hi Guys!

Today we had a pretty hectic day!! We got up pretty earlier to go out and feed the animals, and went for a lovely walk round the farm in the sun!

We decided that the weather was so nice we should head out to the coast! We headed to Llanerchaeron (a National Trust place) for lunch and a walk on the way! The were snack type lunches, but we really enjoyed them! However, we wouldn't recommend the ploughman's to cheese fans as the cheddar wasn't very strong!!

After lunch, we had a walk around the house and the gardens! I'm not going to lie - I really hate looking round old houses like that so I was quite relieved that by National Trust standards, it was quite small! However, the gardens were absolutely gorgeous!! In particular, there was a lovely garden with a huge vegetable patch, greenhouses and apple trees! It was the most impressive vegetable patch I've ever seen!! There was even a farm with loads of cute animals, so this would be a perfect place to take young children!

After a walk, we set off once again in the car and headed to Llangrannog. We had never been there before, but when we arrived there was free parking and a park and ride bus which we took down to the beach! There were three separate patches of beach in between a gorgeous hill/cliff! We decided to climb the hill to look at the views from above, and we found a bench to sit on and relax while watching the view! After a few minutes sat there, out of the corner of my eye I saw a disturbance in the water, and realised that there were dolphins!! We watched them for ages, and there only appeared to be two at first, but all after a few minutes, more and more started turning up!! It was amazing, and the views were breathtaking!

Wales Blog - Day 2! (Sunday)

Hi Guys!

This morning we went out to help feed the animals with farmer Rob! It was pretty disgusting weather, but we always end up having great fun! We threw loads of balls for Bryn (if you read my blog regularly, you probably would have seen that Bryn LOVES balls being thrown for him)! We came prepared this morning, and bought one of those ball throwing things so we could pick up the ball and throw it easily! After a few minutes of this, Bryn disappeared, and it turned out that he got so tired, he went and hid behind the laundry room door!!

After feeding the animals, we went out for Sunday lunch at The Plough. This was our very first time eating there, and was a suggestion from Fiona who owns the farm. It was absolutely DELICIOUS!! As well as this, the food came so quickly!! Literally a minute after we ordered our starters, they arrived!

Me, Mum and Frankie all had a local Cheeseboard each for Pudding!!

We headed straight from The Plough to Carmarthen to have a quick look round the shops! We've been to the town many times before, and it has a cinema and a few restaurants as well as lots if high street stores!

This evening we've been for a couple of walks round the farm, and I have also practised driving for the first time since we were here this time last year...!! I really need to book some lessons!!

Now we're relaxing and watching the latest star wars film, so if you're excuse me I'm going to end my blog here so I don't miss the end!!

Wales Blog - Day One!

Today we travelled to Wales! We set off at 9am so that we could go and see Mum's Auntie (Jo), who lives in Malmesbury with her dog Bobby! As we pass by on our way in holiday, we decided to pop in for a cup of tea and a quick catch up before continuing on our journey!

Our next stop was Tredegar House, a National Trust place about an hour and a half away from the farm! We stopped there to have lunch, which has become a tradition every time we go to Wales - although they've changed their menu, and the food wasn't great today :(

We arrived at the farm and 16:15, and had a lovely catch up with Rob and Fiona (the owners of the farm)! We also went for a walk and briefly saw the animals before coming back to our house to relax and eat dinner!

PS - Sorry that I'm late uploading this - Frankie was uploading her latest vlog ALL EVENING, and was stealing all the broadband!!
