- A trip to the lovely West Wales town of Cardigan. A place full of history, culture and interesting stories. Oh and of course lots of delicious food - Including THE most heavenly doughnuts. Also includes Hubnuts vs sour sweets...watch to see which won! Warning - May include singing for which I can only apologise.

Thanks for watching
Great tour, so 'naturel'. I liked the song, you really don't need to apologise.
Another great Miss Hubnut on Welsh towns and history. Miss Hubnut's rendition of Caron Lan gave me goosebumps. Must be my strong Welsh ancestry.
Thank you that's very kind

Fantastic video. Thank you for sharing.
I live in Australia now, but I was born in Cardigan in 1950. All my mother's side of the family (her parents, brothers, cousins, aunties etc) and now including my mother, father and younger brother are all buried in the Netpool cemetery there. The last of my generation of family died in Newcastle Emlyn a few weeks ago. Other distant members have been there since before I was a boy.
I've been back on seven occasions since emigrating to Australia; the first being in 2004,; the last in 2017.
I went to school there for my first year of schooling. When our family left there in 1956, they had just opened the first F.W. Woolworths in the town centre and closed around 2009/10 (now the original factory shop).
As a kid I use to sit on that cannon outside the Guild hall whenever my mother took me shopping.
When my sister (also in Australia) and I visited there in 2004 the 'Shire Hall' was a souvenir shop. I still have some 'coal dogs' (figurines made of coal) and Welsh slate coasters.
'Yum Yum' is always on the list of visits for my Australian wife who now (almost) shares the same love of Cardigan as myself.
I would have hoped for one more final visit before now and I wish I had taken more of a 'complete tour' recording while I was there on recent visits.
You have brought back some wonderful memories. Thank you.
Well done, always enjoy your heart felt, and historical videos, hubnut family style!!! 👍😁👍
Another fantastic welsh history lesson...Love a good quality sweet shop....Edinburgh rock one of my favourites
You have definitely put Wales on this American's bucket list.
Lovely place to visit
Miss HubNut I could listen to your voice and your wonderful Welsh pronunciation for hours, thats meant as a compliment in a nice way nothing inappropriate. Your videos are really interesting. Thank You.
Thank you that's a really kind comment
@@misshubnut I love that each of the nations and areas that make up the United Kingdom have their own identity and accents and long may it stay like that.
Interesting stuff about a place in Wales I've not yet visited.
As a Panda driver.....lovely 🐼 at the end too!
Great video Love all the individual shops sadly lacking in most towns now
It's really quite special
Hi another great miss hubnut video, look forward to your next one, enjoy the sweetsy
You sang that excellent 👌 spot on
Really interesting tour of Cardigan's historical buildings. Your presentation was lively and engaging.
Wales has so many hidden gems of towns and historical events, and divine looking food too. It’ll devotedly have to be a country I visit once restrictions ease
Super narrative and video Miss HubNut. Interesting tour and Welsh pronunciations. Attractive locations and buildings. Your sweet tasting expressions. 😆
Great food, interesting buildings and fascinating history. All in one handy video. Thanks Miss HubNut, thats another destination going on my ever growing visit Wales list.
Glad you enjoyed it
I watched this video while having my lunch so I didn't feel hungry immediately afterwards
Really enjoying this series. Can't wait for the next installment
Ha ha getting wise to the fact I fill these with food!
Looks like a lovely place for a wander and a munch. Lovely to hear your personal connections too.
That crème brulée French Toast looked incredible too
This would get a ‘like’ from me just for the singing and the sour sweet faces, but the whole thing was great, especially how you tied the personal in with the history and touristy bits.
Thank you, they were the most evil sweets ever!
We were in your neck of the woods last week, and watched all your guides. After watching your guide to cardigan my wife was most disappointed when crwst was shut! We did however end up with a lovely all day breakfast in the castle cafe and cellar bar opposite the castle. Thanks for making your guides, we found them helpful and Interesting.
Another video that makes me want to become a full time tourist. I absolutely love Wales and I absolutely love your videos!! 🙂 Will definitely be checking out cwrst!!
Absolutely should. Those doughnuts are something else!
Makes me want to move to Wales.
Cardigan was always one of my favourite towns in Ceredigion to visit but I never realised how historical it was. Thank you for bringing back so many fond memories walking down those streets. It is lovely to hear the Welsh language too and to see the shop fronts with their Welsh names. Your videos are invaluable in revealing the treasures of this part of Wales. Gwbert is also well worth a visit for its views.
The viewpoint in Gwbert is one of our favourites, absolutely stunning
I'm getting another car next year and you're giving me plenty of roadtrip ideas. Wales is such an awesome place!
Excellent video as always, that breakfast looked amazing and those Donuts..... I do like finding out about the history of places ie the shire hall trying to imagine what happened in the place. I do love a bit of Chod Spotting as well.
Every time we go to Cardigan I spot the S reg! Glad you enjoyed the video
Fantastic video. You are so lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world.
Thank you, we count our blessings every day
Miss Hubnut is a vivid storyteller 👍😊
Thank you
Love the way you are on camera, such a natural and expert!
I visited Cardigan today and had lunch at Crwst. I can confirm everything Miss Hubnut says about them. The vegetarian breakfast (vegan plus egg and halloumi) was incredible! Well worth it!
It's so so good! It's all we can do to resist going in there every time we're in Cardigan!
I came for a quick snoop of Miss Hubnuts work and ended up watching the entire video! VERY interesting and informative, your knowledge is incredible. Love this 😍
Thank you very much, really glad you enjoyed it!
Miss HunNut you’re a natural, thank you for posting, very informative…I think we’ll pay a visit!
Absolutely worth a visit
🌈 so many lovely little shops .. nice promo lady
My thought on having two clocks could be Local time versus Railway time (pre- Greenwich Mean Time standardisation), assuming the rails had made it there by the time the 2nd clock was built, but looking on google, the station was (still is actually, though now used for garage services looking on streetview) on the south side of the river, on the aptly named Station Road, and said station likely would have had its' own clock too, so not too sure on that theory...
Aha that is a good theory.
Wasn't that often handled by adding a second minute hand on the same clock face?
Here in Wakefield, there was an official time ball above one of the jewellers in the centre of town, which dropped at precisely mid-day, synchronised to the railway time. The station is half a mile away, so I wouldn't rule out this clock being on railway time.
Brilliant! Thank you miss Hubnut, another very interesting video.
Btw Beautiful singing.
Thank you
thanks for the memories :-)
I used to cycle to Cardigan and Abeystwyth from Swansea, have some food and then ride back home when training for the longer races
That is quite the cycle!
What a fantastic video. 👏 I live in Australia and you've allowed me to visit virtually as I will most likely never be able to go there in person. Thank you
Very enjoyable.
Liked just for the song :-) Lovely
Thank you
The last time I was in Cardigan was at the height of Covid restrictions. Unfortunately I was at the Health Centre for an emergency tooth extraction so wasn't in the mood to look around.
It was very quiet with most places closed anyway.
I really must go and have a proper look round.
Ouch. Hope it's all sorted now! It's well worth a look
As a musician I can tell you've got a really good singing voice, no need to apologise. Thanks for another thoroughly interesting video, Carly. All the best from Norway.😊
Thank you so much
Great video, Carly!
Absolutely fascinating! And what a singing voice! Beautiful! 😃
The architecture is wonderful, and I loved the history behind each building.
So very well done Carly, thank you! I'm looking forward to the next Miss HubNut video! 😃
My son used to get sour sweets called Toxic Waste. They were packaged in a plastic yellow barrel, with some green 'leakage' around the top. They were the most horrible things I've ever tried! The Hublets may like such! 😲
Thank you so much. Mini Hubnut can eat the toxi waste but these he uses as a challenge for his friends!!
@@misshubnut I thought the Toxic Waste was horrible, so those things that you and Ian 'tested' must be worse! And I sometimes drink black coffee with salt in it! 😲
Just about 1/8th of a teaspoon, no more! It'll only cost you a cup of coffee to try it, and you might even enjoy it! 😃
@@chrisskelhorn5727 They were the most sour evil thing I have ever eaten!!
I can see how that would work
Thank you so much for these videos, we especially enjoy the eating bits and we are headed out today to try some of your recommendations. Greetings from Shropshire to you and Mr hubnut and hublets xx
WOW just stumbled on this, a very well done video Miss Hubnut loved your take on history and your rendition of Calon Lan....keep them coming this makes my day :)
Most enjoyable video as always 😍
Food looks scrumptious 😋
Lovely to see this video, I was born and bred in Cardigan, leaving in 1975 when I was 26. Don't get back as often as I would like, still have family there. It has certainly changed over the years, I remember the castle being derelict, and we used to sneak in to explore as kids. On the riverside at the start that was all warehouses, and there was no footbridge. There were houses and some industrial buildings along the strand up to the bridge, which made it very narrow, but it wasn't as busy in those days. I also just about remember the railway station and getting the train to Whitland to get the train to London. Happy memories of a wonderful childhood spent there!
Absolutely fantastic video M.H. just when you think you can't get better than the last 1...bang you come out with this
It always amazes me how much you know about Wales 👌
Thank you, Glad you enjoyed it! My school history teachers would never believe it 😂!!
@@misshubnut hope the next video is out soon
@@itsmephil2255 Should be, just need to decide where!
@@misshubnut awesome 👌
Lovely and very informative video once again Miss Hub Nut. Thanks for posting.
First visit to Wales last year . Didn't expect much ...I was completely blown away !! Now I bore everyone by banging on about how fantastic Wales is ..! I'm going back in May.!
Last visit 2018 ;) ,grandmother (rip) frm Carmarthen, me Swansea,Shropshire resident @ mo thanks guys for video today..
Thank you for watching
Im really enjoying these Welsh tour videos. Thanks for sharing Miss Hubnut. 😊👍
bore da miss hubnut and thanks for another deliciously entertaining video👏, the Welsh tourist board should be tagging you because I want to visit all the places you've shown us. Thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you for watching. Really glad you enjoyed it. All the places are so lovely they sell themselves!
Food for thought is another amazing cafe in cardigan 💯 you and Ian should 100% visit
I've been - also very good!
excellent in so many ways. thank you
I so look forward to these tours. Another excellent example.
Very interesting thank you nice signing
Thanks for the day out, history, sites and food.
Another one of your delightful and interesting films - thanks Carly.
It makes me want to come back and visit Wales again after many years.
It's about time the Welsh Tourist Board started cashing you up for these!
Thank you very much - not sure they'd have me!
ah yes THE SWEETSHOP!! ;-)
Da iawn! Werth I weld. Edrych ymlaen am fwy o rhain.
Diolch yn fawr
Thank you - I learn so much from you videos.
I enjoyed that. I must recommend a breakfast at the castle cafe on Quay st.
Will have to try it!
Excellent video miss HubNut I always look forward to your tours.
Another interesting video 👍👍👍👍👍
absolutely fascinating
Miss Hubnut you are a natural presenter!
Love it, keep them coming.
Thank you, I will do my best!
Always look forwards to your next video. They are brilliant guides for those living and visiting Wales. Thank you
A S reg ford focus must be one of the fist to be registered as I the earliest I have seen for a MK1 focus was on a T Pate and have also seen late ford escorts on V plates
The S reg is indeed the earliest though there is a rumour of an R reg one...
@@misshubnut r reg will probably be ex press car I reckon
I have some vague recollection of Mary Hopkin singing that song.
Thank you Miss Hubnut another great video. Thank you again.
Glad you enjoyed it
Another cracking video 😀
Very informative Miss Hubnut. Your local knowledge is full of insight into the town, I feel the calorie count is quite high!! The breakfast looked amazing.
Thank you. It was indeed a high calorie count but a long awaited treat!
Excellent work :) I really enjoyed watching this. 👍🏻
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it
Another cracking video, loved it with yourself and Ian trying the sour sweets, thank you
Those sweets were plain evil!!
@@misshubnut you are certainly braver than me, lol
Great information MHN! 😉
You really have too do more of these vids , so good .
Yet another brilliant video, Miss HubNut! Thank you so much for this. You are the better half (nach ;P) of my two favourite YT'ers! Can't wait for the next one ;) (P.S. I just realised how late I am in watching this vid ;()
Delightful singing. You have a very nice singing voice. Thank you for another excellent guided tour. 🏴😃
Thank you, very kind
I was resident there long before you were born! 🤭🤭 And maybe sadly, I'll be resident there again next weekend as we're moving from strife stricken Belarus. That's a long drive Ian! 2860 Kms on the last trip! We manage it in 3 days... Cracking on! Especially as I'm over 70 now! 🤭🤭
Wow that is quite a long haul! Safe journey
I love these videos, it is like being taken around a new place by a family member or a good friend you haven't seen for ages. The food at Crwst made my stomach start gurgling in anticipation! I noticed on the black and white mural in there, there is a drawing of a Morris Minor, together with Morris, Skoda and Renault badges, so that's probably a clue as to what they sold :)
If Avon means river, does that mean the River Avon is the River River? I guess so. Oh, and no need to apologise for the singing!
Thank you, we really do need to find out more about the car dealership!
The river Avon is a hark back to when the whole country spoke a form of Welsh called brytonic (excuse the spelling). So when the Romans invaded and asked what the name of the river was, the reply came back Afon. F in Welsh is pronounced as a v.
Yet again another fantastic video, and happy to see you enjoyed the sour sweets! (p.s couldn't stop laughing at those facial expressions).
Oh those sweets were so evil!!
A fine video, Miss Hubnut! If I'd had this lovely video it would have enhanced my enjoyment of the town so much when we visited during August 2020 - as it happens that day we had some liquid sunshine, but did manage to try the lovely Stiwdio 3 coffee! :D
Liquid sunshine means you had the true Wales experience! Stiwdio 3 is lovely.
Hi both what a great video it must take a lot of work thankyou take care both 😊👍🏻
Absolutely worth it, I love making these
Being 11% Welsh and only being there once, I'm enjoying finding out about my ancestral stomping ground and the history behind this great country, also being born in New South Wales it helps my birth state's namesake come to be a great historical gain by hearing the stories of the nation of Wales from Miss HubNut, great lessons to be learned!!!
That's very precise 11%. Glad you're enjoying the history
If i was paying for a guided tour, then Miss Hubnut Tours would be one i would thoroughly enjoy 😍
Thank you
@@misshubnut you are so welcome ❤️
Gosh, came to check out Cardigan for a July trip and didn't expect to find Mr Hubnut here!!
Such a great video these are really interesting to watch, Mr Hubnuts Creme brûlée french toast looked amazing!!
Everything was so good there!
Crwst, next time we're up seeing the family, we'll have to pit stop there! Thanks Mrs HubNut!! :D
Absolutely must, it's so good!
Really a cool place looks great
It's a great place to go
Excellent video... and until I moved to France I had never heard of salty caramel... Makes nice ice cream too... :-)
Keep being surprised by how similar spoken Welsh is to Irish (and Scots) Gaelic. The written forms look so different, but when pronounced , they sound so similar! Irish for river is Abhainn - pron Ow-wen. One of the bigger dairy brands over here is Avonmore - “the big river”. Great vid., thanks 🙏🏼 -- A little surprised Ian hadn’t found out what car dealer was originally in Crwst!! Impressive looking… Art Deco? building. Keep the recitals and spontaneous singing going - great. 👍🏻👍🏻
They are similar in pronunciation. I think we were too immersed in the delicious food!!
I enjoyed the song 😊
Great! I could easily see this as a pilot for a TV series...
Thank you
Such a cute video.
Thank you
I don’t live far away from aberteifi it’s a amazing place to go
It really is, good food and lots of history
@@misshubnut yes
the best thing about a miss hubnut vid is the cake . well aside from miss hubnut
The doughnuts were exceptional
Hi I live in Tanygroes a few miles north of Cardigan, lived in area for 40 years and I am finding some of these things I just didn’t know about. So thank you will have to have another long look when next shopping there.
So many little hidden gems in Cardigan!
Brilliant video and excellent explanations about the town. I really miss Wales and want to come over and see more of it on holiday, shame its a little expensive compared to many other destinations in Europe. Miss Hubnut is clearly a history buff and also very good at working with tourism. The sour sweet tasting was funny, great faces you both made. Thank you and best wishes from Copenhagen, Denmark :-)
Thank you for a lovely comment. I hope you can visit sometime. Those sweets were evil!!
Ah you featured Queens bakery. I always go there when I'm in town. The other places you mention for food look great too. Also thanks for the useful pronunciation of place names in your video. As a non native speaker it's reassuring to known how to say these. I'm slowly learning.
Brilliant Video on Aberteifi! I do like these "tours"...Wonderful part of the world, West Wales..and haven't been since our "Borth" trip back in 2011, feeling the need to re-acquaint myself with the place. During the "Big Bite" scene, you said look at the Big Bite shop...but was distracted by, what looked like, a "Fox" Bodied Mustang driving by!!!! Sorry...blame Mr Hubnut!!
That Mustang was everywhere that day!
