A note from the site themselves...

We have been living and farming at Penlan since 1987, bringing up a family and milking a herd of over 200 dairy cows which kept us very busy! In 2012 we decided to branch out into tourism and share the beautiful area we live in.

We have had people from all over the world staying with us and have enjoyed hearing their stories.
