Pembrokeshire

Great week in Pembrokeshire, south west of Wales in an amazing cottage on Dinas Island Farm. A great place, fantastic view from the cottage, the farm and down to the beach. The farm is a working farm and we were surrounded with hundreds of lambs... Pure joy... We also had the opportunity to do a boat trip around Ramsey Island where we were supposed to see a lot of wildlife but at the end it was too early in the season. We also had the pleasure to meet up with Brian, Jo, Angie, Dave and the kids for a fabulous afternoon on the beach of Tenby. What a beautiful part of the country...

That was great...
