Gilfach is a Welsh hill farm where traditional farming methods and organic agriculture have stimulated wildlife. The farm boasts a variety of habitats from rivers to rocky uplands and the ancient anthill meadows.

The area is great for birds, bugs and Badgers so take a walk back in time at this stunning nature reserve.
