Owain Glyndŵr 1350 - 1416 - Last Prince of Wales
Arguably one of the greatest Welshmen of all time if not the greatest. He sacrificed everything for a dream of Wales as a nation, governing itself with its own self-governing churches, parliament and universities. Owain Glyndŵr was the last Welsh person to hold the title Prince of Wales. His name is still remembered and revered today.

Welsh rarebit is a traditional but famous Welsh dish. Basically, it’s a combination of hot melted cheese on toast which is a winning combination on any day. Some still call it posh Cheese on Toast which let’s face it, doesn’t sound half as good as Welsh Rarebit, does it? Welsh rarebit is more than cheese on toast - it needs some beer, Worcester sauce and mustard, and that's why it tastes so good. Welsh rarebit day is celebrated in Wales on each 3rd September - but it's just so good, its best eaten all year around!

Our website is a very, very small part of the World Wide Internet as a whole. Nevertheless, even a small website such as FelinFach.com has a real and measurable impact on the environment. The main sources of emissions from websites are data centres, internet trafic and video streaming. All these activities use electricity and create carbon dioxide.
Sustainability is a core part of our business activities. Whether it is our carbon neutral shipping, our tree planting with Tree Nation or our plastic free products and packaging, we are improving our sustainability bit by bit, step by step.
