ST DONATS
Beyond the Border, 6th - 8th July

David Ambrose
Picture a fairytale castle perched on a cliff-top on the romantic Welsh coast. This is home to the Wales International Storytelling Festival.
At the foot of the castle, a medieval jousting field, fringed by woodland, the tower of an ancient Saxon church rising above the trees. Terraced gardens slope gently down from the castle to the sea. In every garden, there is a tent. And in every tent, a storyteller. This was definitely a highlight of the summer. |
