Food and Drink
Welsh Rarebit
Welsh rarebit, or rabbit, is not the meal you might think it is. Containing no traces of rabbit, this savoury dish features a hot cheese-based sauce served over toasted bread. When combined with egg, the dish becomes buck rabbit, and when tomato is added, it is a blushing bunny!
Glamorgan Sausage
A traditional Glamorgan sausage features a Welsh vegetarian sausage, along with cheese and leeks, coated in breadcrumbs and fried. This dish is often served with mash and gravy, making it the perfect comfort food.
Cawl
Cawl is a traditional Welsh soup or broth, usually using lamb and leeks. This hearty and earthy meal is the best comfort food, and is often combined with a lovely Welsh cheese and crusty bread.
Welsh Cakes
Welsh cakes are a traditional sweet bread of Wales, made with similar ingredients to that of a scone, but they are not baked, they are cooked like a pancake. These delicious cakes are a rare treat, due to how time consuming they are to make, and hold a very unique taste only found in Wales.

Only accessible when the tide is low, St. Catherine's Island is home to a historic fort that was built in the 19th century to protect the town from French invasion.
