Where the harbour meets the open sea, paddlers are rewarded with views of the Pembrokeshire coast towards Dinas Head, a rugged coastline of towering cliffs and caves.

Take a horse drawn carriage trip back in time to a calmer, slower age, & learn a little about the glory of working horses at our traditional horse powered farm. We start in the horse barn & encourage guests to interact with our wonderful horses while we harness them, but if you prefer, you can watch from a distance. Learn a little about the horses, their working life, their harness & equipment before we hitch up & climb aboard to begin your trip back in time through the peaceful countryside surrounding our farm. We encourage children to take an active part in proceedings if they wish, but it’s not compulsory! Out on the ride I will share some local farming practices, a bit of local history, & give you an insight into our way of life, but if you want peace & quiet, we can do that to! We can adjust timings & numbers to suit your party. Our hay wagon can accommodate up to 15 people in a private group. Our carriages are comfortable but open to the elements, & it can sometimes get cold, so make sure you bring warm & weatherproof clothing. The welfare of our horses is important to us and we are proud of their condition, their turnout and their behaviour. Your support makes a huge difference to the viability of our farm and we hope you leave us with a real sense of the nobility of our working horses & of having travelled back in time in our horse powered time machine!

We then seek for our resident pod of dolphins, keep an eye out for seals basking on the rocks and explore the many secluded cove and caves. It really is an experience that will not be forgotten.

I will take you off the beaten track and away from busy tourist areas in the New Forest and show you hidden gems. You will learn about the natural habitat and what animals, plants and fungi can be found there. You will learn how to photograph the wildlife with minimal disturbance so that you get better more relaxed subjects and we can work on different techniques used to photograph smaller subjects such as flowers and fungi. I can provide as much photography help or learning as you need and as time will allow or show you what you are looking for and let you photograph them in your own way. We will meet at your accommodation or a prearranged starting point and the length of the walk can be tailored to suit your needs but generally the terrain is not difficult. Timing can be by mutual arrangement and I am not averse to pre-dawn starts for those special photos of red deer stags in the mist. Other things to note I can cater for any level of photography from the beginner to those looking for that competition winning entry. What we look for will be dependant on the time of year and local weather variations. The Guided Photography Walk can be arranged for any time of day but early morning or evening are best. We can also provide accommodation through Air BnB at Ridge Cottage https://www.airbnb.co.uk/rooms/38690771?source_impression_id=p3_1625403308_xD9ebAhlkyOJ6Wzc&guests=1&adults=1

Pottery painting is suitable for all ages, whether you're painting a gift for someone else or simply making holiday memories. Other things to note Allow up to 1.5 hrs to enjoy your pottery painting session - if you haven't completed within this time we can provide paints so you can finish at home.
