Lovely selection of lunches, my favourite is the 'Cawl' a welsh hearty soup with local bread. Homemade cakes and deserts. The bakewell tart with single cream is world class!

Beautiful woodland walk overlooking Laugharne estuary. Pay homage to the great Welsh poet by walking in his footsteps amongst his ‘Green Chapels’ aka Trees. I’m sure he was Pagan and worshipped Mother Nature as his poetry refers constantly to it! Watch the herons ‘Spire and Spear’ on the estuary.
