Coed Tyn-y-cwm is a picturesque wood located in the county of Cardiganshire, Wales. It is nestled within the beautiful countryside, surrounded by rolling hills and breathtaking landscapes. The name "Tyn-y-cwm" translates to "house in the valley," which accurately depicts its location at the bottom of a small, secluded valley.

Covering an area of approximately 100 acres, Coed Tyn-y-cwm is a diverse and thriving forest. It is predominantly made up of deciduous trees, such as oak, beech, and ash, which create a rich and vibrant canopy during the warmer months. The forest floor is adorned with a variety of wildflowers, ferns, and mosses, adding to its natural beauty and biodiversity.

The wood is crisscrossed by a network of footpaths and trails, allowing visitors to explore its hidden treasures. These paths lead to idyllic spots, such as a babbling brook and a small waterfall, providing a tranquil and peaceful setting for nature lovers and hikers.

Coed Tyn-y-cwm is also home to a wide range of wildlife. Numerous bird species, including woodpeckers, warblers, and owls, can be spotted soaring through the trees or nesting in the wood. Squirrels are a common sight, gracefully leaping from branch to branch, while foxes and badgers may be glimpsed at dusk.

The wood is open to the public year-round, and visitors are encouraged to respect and protect its natural environment. Coed Tyn-y-cwm offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, providing an opportunity to immerse oneself in the beauty of nature.

Snowy fields, Cnwch Coch Heavy snow had been forecast for the night, but most of it ended up in southeast Wales.  North Ceredigion got all the fun but little of the worry.
