Cambrian

The Cambrian Mountains are the remote upland area in the centre of Wales.
This stunningly beautiful landscape is one of the our best kept secrets...

Sheep farming is vital to this area.  The Cambrian Wool company selects the finest fleeces from these farms and has them processed, in the UK, in to Combed Top & Worsted Yarns.  The sheep are known as Welsh Mules.  A Mule is a cross between a native upland sheep, in this case Welsh Mountain, and a Blue Faced Leicester. These sheep produce wool with beautiful sheen, and incredible bounce, and a long staple length.

Mynyddoedd Cambria yw'r ucheldir anghysbell yng nghanol Cymru.
Y dirwedd syfrdanol hardd hon yw un o'n cyfrinachau gorau...

Mae ffermio defaid yn hanfodol i’r ardal hon.  Mae Gwlân Cambrian yn dewis y cnuoedd gorau o'r ffermydd hyn ac yn eu prosesu, yn y DU, i fod yn Edafedd Wstid wedi’u Cribo.  Miwl Cymreig yw enw'r defaid.  Mae defaid Miwl yn groes rhwng dafad ucheldir brodorol, yn yr achos hwn defaid Mynydd Cymreig, a defaid Wyneblas Caerlŷr. Mae'r defaid hyn yn cynhyrchu gwlân gyda sglein hardd, sbonc anhygoel a hyd edefyn hir.
