The Teifi Valley

The Teifi Valley, which meets the sea at Cardigan, has a rich and varied history, from the coracle fishing practised since prehistoric times and celebrated in the Coracle Museum in Cenarth, to the Mediaeval Castles of Cilgerran and Newcastle Emlyn, to the Victorian woollen mills of Drefach Felindre.

For the naturalist, the Wildlife Centre on the estuary at Cardigan offers a chance to see otters, kingfishers and a host of waders and warblers. Buzzards are everywhere and Red Kites are moving in from Mid-Wales. The falls at Cenarth, where you can watch the salmon leaping, and the steeply wooded Gorge around Cilgerran are celebrated beauty spots.
