UPDATE ON THE PUB: The Hundred House Inn (a mile away via a walk through the farm) has only just been reopened after a two-year renovation, and the owner does welcome dogs and their owners and has made a special, warm, covered outside spot for them, with direct access to the pub, overlooking the garden and the beautiful Edw stream. It has just started serving food too, I hear that Sunday lunch is very good!

It is a fantastic site, the people are really lovely. They have some South African friends and I will be going back in the summer to have a “braai” which is a BBQ with them. They know a butcher and will get some meat, which is very good they say. When we have it, you should join us. 👍🤪

The apples look like crab apples, tart, make great jam type jelly spread. Lovely.

We will go back again.

A few weeks after publishing the video, the owners sent me an email to thank me after a few people had mentioned they had heard about them from KZread. (The owners didn't know I was making a video when I stayed.) I'm glad the place is getting the recognition it deserves. Thank you very much for trusting my recommendation and giving it a go! Wishing you all the best on your future travels.

I want to travel this way in a few years and enjoy your down to earth videos of all the realities with the adventures.

As someone who has lived in Wales for many years, I can tell you that most of the 'A' roads are like the one you drove on, and any alternative route would probably have been no better. I have made the journey from Cardiff, following mainly the A470, all the way up to Llandudno many times. It is the most amazing drive for scenery but you can't do it quickly due to other traffic, 20mph speed limits through towns & villages, and that is the case for most of Wales. So don't worry about it, just drive and enjoy the scenery. I'm going to have to check out Fforest Fields later in the spring, once I have my new camper van as it looks like a nice place to spend a weekend. Keep up the good work with the videos. Love Winston and his propeller tail 😁😁

We love this site. But sadly had to cut our visit short in October, because i was so poorly. And so was my dog. The facilities are really lovely, so is the drying room, absolutely brilliant. And the surrounding area is, as you have found lovely to just have a good walk. Builth wells, is smashing, nice shops and café's. I agree about the local pub not being dog friendly.

All apple trees do something called the 'fall/autumn drop' (windfall) where they essentially drop a large portion of the apples on the tree, thereby the remaining can get the energy to grow larger. Additionally, being Wales, it's likely been quite windy and there will be losses there too.

I don't know if it's family run. I just saw them at the NEC when I was looking at internet solutions. I didn't buy from the show; I came came home, had a think about it and then bought from online. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Think apples are Crab Apples and if so make lovely crab apple jelly or jam .

As has already been said, they are crab apples. Don’t ever bite one they are extremely sour and should only be given to someone you don’t like.

I need the electricity so that I can work and run all of my tech. I always talk to Winston 😂 I'm certain he knows what I'm saying (kinda) Hope you're feeling better. It was this time last week when Winston hurt his leg and he's recovering well. I have no idea which way I went, I just followed the sat nav 😂 (I have a terrible sense of direction) Both nice little caravans.

Apple trees will produce lots of tiny fruit that struggle to ripen if they overbear ... that is too many flowers are pollinated and therefore produce too many small, unripened apples. In your case it might be the wild apple, Malus sylvestris which is a crab apple. It has lots of small, yellow/green bitter apples and grows to about 10m. You can id it in the Winter by a short row of hairs on the bud scales. Also, so many wild apple trees have interbred with commercial varieties it could easily be a hybrid.

I'd take a look at fungi, I used to go to a dairy farm and get giant puffballs from in the fields and chicken of the woods a type of bracket fungus in trees and many more there are plenty of books about mushrooms and hedgerow foraging.

Maybe they don’t believe in ripping people off… plus if they are not members of all these associations they save the fees charged by them.
