Dinefwr is an iconic place in the history of Wales. Two forts are evidence of a dominant Roman presence, through the to the Medieval times when the Princes of Deheubarth held Dinefwr Castle as a seat of power and influence. In the 19th Century George and Cecil Rice created the designed landscape the park displays today, clearly inspire by Capability Brown who visited in 1773. The parkland hosts many walks through Bog Wood, the Medieval Deer Park and alongside the majestic White Park Cattle who have roamed the lands at Dinefwr for over 2,000 years. There are plenty of activities, tours and events held throughout the year. Newton House is not a traditionally “dressed” house, more a hands on atmospheric experience telling the stories of the families that shaped this 800 acre estate. Dinefwr is the first parkland National Nature Reserve in Wales with beautiful woods, lakes and parkland to explore. Dinefwr Castle is owned by the Wildlife Trust and Managed by Cadw.

Wythnos Gwirfoddolwyr | Volunteers week

***

Yr wythnos hon rydym yn dathlu ein gwirfoddolwyr ymroddedig sydd nid yn unig yn rhoi o’u hamser ond hefyd yn creu newid gwirioneddol yn Ninefwr.

O helpu i adrodd ar fywyd gwyllt yn y parc ceirw, i roi gwên groesawgar yn y tŷ a gwneud diwrnod ymwelydd yn werth chweil - diolch o galon i chi!

Eleni fe wnaeth gwirfoddolwyr helpu i blannu 7,000 o fylbiau, gosod dros 1,000 troedfedd o ffens, a chodi £15,000 yn y siop lyfrau ail law!

Rhoddwyd tair mainc dderw hygyrch (a wnaed yn Nyffryn Tywi) yn rhodd o flaen Tŷ Newton.

Diolch o waelod calon.

***

This week we celebrate our dedicated volunteers who don’t just give their time but create real change at Dinefwr.

From helping to report on wildlife in the deer park, to providing a welcoming smile in the house and making a visitors day – we salute you!

This year our volunteers helped with planting around 7,000 bulbs, installing over 1,000 ft of fenceline, and raised around £15,000 in the second hand bookshop!

Three accessible oak benches (made in the Towy valley) were also donated to the front of Newton House.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
