So finishing up …. The dog finally has his day …
As ever I had enjoyed my couple of days alone , just pleasing myself and doing as I wanted but it was lovely to spend the last day and night with my daughter and our dog Zeb . An added bonus of Covid was that the owners were spacing bookings 3 days apart and so told us we could spend more time on our last day and ignore the normal checking out time.
Zeb loves a beach almost as much (maybe more ) than I do so we took him to a partially dog friendly beach . The best part is that the dog friendly section includes the most interesting part of the beach.
The beach is called Tresaith and is very close to Aberporth. Just a few photos to finish this postcard.
Happy dog

It’s a glorious beach and one of its features is that the River Saith flows over the cliff onto the beach below – If on foot you can only get to see this at low tide (or look from the cliff above)
The translation of the Welsh name ‘Tresaith’ is ‘town of seven’, which is believed to originate from the tale of seven Irish sisters. According to local legend, there was once an Irish King who, in despair of his seven troublesome daughters, cast them adrift on an open boat out onto the Irish Sea. The boat was said to beach at Tresaith, where the seven princesses fell in love and married seven sons of local Welsh families, hence the name the town of seven.
We were lucky as the tide was low

Followed by a lovely evening in the hot tub,a nice home cooked meal and a good catch up with Em. Perfect end to a lovely break.
