Over the Easter weekend the weather gods decided that Caerfai should get some lovely sun and calm seas to allow for some decent rowing in the bay.  We row weekly most of the year, weather permitting, but usually out from Porthgain harbour (7 miles up the coast) or Goodwick (dodging the Fishguard/Rosslare ferry). The ‘we’ is Porthgain rowing club and we row in wooden 32 ft, 6 oared Cornish pilot gig boats. It’s always great to get out on the water but its especially fun to row past your home and tell family to look out the kitchen window if they’d like to check on how we are getting on! The coastline surrounding the bay is (in my biased opinion) spectacular and I would definitely recommend taking a boat trip if you are visiting Caerfai....

I am sure if you have ever visited St Davids you will have noticed, as far as cities go, it’s SMALL!  Indeed as many will remind you it is Britain’s smallest of cities.  Plans to close our secondary school, therefore, were seen by many local people to be catastrophic to the well being and vitality of St Davids itself.  Four generations of my family (so far) have gone to Ysgol Dewi Sant. My grandfather, back in the very early days of its very existence attended, regularly bringing beer to school; “is that beer Evans?”, “no sir, its tea sir” (don’t judge, it was the 1910’s and he had been up since 5am milking cows!).  My dad and aunt attended (less beer drinking, more hockey and rugby playing). My eldest sister was...

As you may or may not know, Caerfai,for many years (40, give or take), has been using renewable energy systems. However, there was a time in the long distant past when dad (Wyn) was told by the bank manager; when enquiring into a possible loan to fund an anaerobic digester,  to “go find out more information”.  He did, and now there isn’t a month that goes by that doesn’t yield at least one email from a Phd student requesting help with their research as they’d heard “he was a bit of an expert”. From humble (and frankly smelly beginnings: slurry digester) things progressed. Today he has just informed me that Caerfai Farm is now run on 100% renewable energy sources. “What does that actually mean?”, I hear you...

Sometimes we get sent photos taken by people who have stayed at Caerfai.  This fabulous shot was taken by Rod Cook a couple of weeks back. I thought i’d pop it on here and share it with everyone.  Thanks Rod.
