North Pembrokeshire
Who knew early March could be so glorious along the North Pembrokeshire coastal path. I found myself just a 20 minute drive from the Old Police House above Abermawr and Aberbach. We didn't see any mermaids, but farmer Ian Gray and National Trust Ranger James Roden gave me a delightful insight into the management of the area. … [Read more...]

Morris Dancing Delights Old Police House Holidaymakers
Visitors to the Old Police House in the heart of Pembrokeshire were delighted by the Morris Dancers almost across the road at the Pump on the Green. Just the entertainment they needed after a hard day visiting our world class beaches. Heb Enw Morris tours local venues during the summer months from its base on the Carmarthenshire/Pembrokeshire border. It's an old tradition, introduced to Pembrokeshire in 1992, and kicks off May Day celebrations across the UK. The origins are thought to lie in … [Read more...]

Discovering Pembrokeshire – have that adventure of a lifetime.
It’s appropriate that in this Year of the Sea, the Old Police House is situated right in the middle of Pembrokeshire. It means that all of the county’s legendary beaches are within a short drive. The village of Spittal is also on one of the historic pilgrim routes to St David’s. The name is a corruption of the Welsh, ysbyty, and tells us that it was a hospice, a resting place for those on route to the holiest place in Wales, It’s appropriate, then, that visitors to Britain’s only coastal … [Read more...]
Epic History in a Walk
There are some extraordinary parallels with the eighteenth century diversification that was shipwrecking and looting along the coast at Sker and Kenfig. The tales of old are thought provoking on a Christmas walk along the Coastal Path, or the footpath that takes you so near to Sker House. A week before Christmas 1753, according to @RobBowen Kenfig Heritage Website Project, one of the more notorious of the (18 local shipwrecks occurred. The Le Vainquer foundered on the rocks at Sker, after her … [Read more...]

Visit Swansea Bay
Good to see that tourism remains a priority with Swansea Council, despite a £22 million budget shortfall. A possible £6 billion investment if the city of culture bid #Swansea2021 indoor arena, Kilvey Hill cable car and the city deal come together was the main thrust of Councillor Robert Francis Davies’s address to Visit Swansea’s Annual tourism stakeholder event. He stressed that the Swansea Bay Lagoon is ‘getting nearer’, with Swansea’s leader, Rob Stewart, due to meet the Environment … [Read more...]
From Wick to Wick
Great fun with guests booked into Ty Gwyneth last night. They wanted directions from Wick - only trouble is they were in Caithness 666 miles or 11 hours away! I was able to direct them to the local tourist hotspots as I made a film 'From Wick to Wick' for BBC back in the day. … [Read more...]
