The Christmas Festival is one of many Saundersfoot events organised by The Saundersfoot Chamber for Tourism (SCT) - a voluntary, non profit

making organisation, with over 70 local business members.

SCT’s aim is to enhance the village's unique community spirit and to develop tourism through the provision of events, to give a village for all seasons.

Members display their membership badge on their businesses and are listed on the SCT noticeboard (on wall of the Rock n Fudge shop) and website.

Without their support these events would not be possible. Please support them.

To find out more visit the SCT exhibit in the main marquee.

Many amazing prizes have been generously donated by Saundersfoot

Chamber for Tourism business members

These include restaurant meals, hotel stays, gift vouchers and so much

more (a full list can be found on the SCT exhibit and website).

By taking part in the draw, you are supporting SCT in its work to host

events in the village such as free fireworks displays, the village illuminations

and this Christmas Festival.

WEST BOUND - Popular 5 piece West Wales Country Band

Laine Evans vocals, Johnny Chirnside guitar/vocals, Lucy

Jones on fiddle, Martin Cunningham on bass & John Davies

on drums!

SAMBA DOC’s 15 drummers will perform static and short

processional sets on Sunday, taking note of the theme,

Christmas by the Sea. Samba Doc’s drumming style,

based on Brazilian Samba rhythms but with a western

influence, will get cold toes tapping and the festive spirit

flowing!

STEVE WHIDDETT recently settled in Saundersfoot. He will

deliver a celebration of popular songs from the 60s to the

present, with a strong focus on acoustic versions of some

of the great singer-songwriters and bands from this period.

Ever-popular FIDDLEBOX return to bring their own unique

fun- loving style to the festival. Welcome again to Helen

(The Fiddle) Adam and George (The Box) Whitfield,

described as “sounding more like a four-piece than a

duo’’. Helen and George have been playing together for

13 years, and draw on a massive repertoire with

traditional Welsh, Irish, American, Klezmer and rock roots,

as well as their own material.

GREENHILL SCHOOL JAZZ BAND performs traditional Big

Band-style music, adding their own jazz flavour to other

popular songs. The current band is made up of Year 11 to

13 pupils from the Tenby school.

‘THE BUTCH BOYS’ are three talented musicians who are

always popular when they provide great impromptu

entertainment during the summer. Joining our local

entertainer Butch (guitar and vocals) are two regular

visitors to Saundersfoot - Richard (double bass) and Chris

(harmonica).

The BoatHouse head chef, 25-year-old Giuseppe ‘Pepe’

Trimorco, was appointed to lead the contemporary

restaurant in Saundersfoot when it opened in summer

2016. He was voted ‘Cawl Cooking Champion of the

World… and Elsewhere’ by the public in Saundersfoot

earlier this year. Pepe’s cawl is now one of the

restaurant’s most popular choices. Pepe trained at

Lamphey Hall Hotel and worked at The Grove, Narberth before taking up his

current position. He said: “I have a passion for Italian food and fresh

fish...something I picked up from my father who was also a trained chef.”

Anthony Evans is a frequent guest chef at

Saundersfoot events, and enjoys nothing

more than sourcing produce from the

market’s stalls to use in his recipes. He

appears on S4C, alongside his full-time

work for Castell Howell.

“I get chance to develop ideas for them on

new lines from time to time, but I also get to see, taste and use the new

modern foods that are hot off the press,” said Anthony. “I love it!”

Lisa Fearn of The Pumpkin Patch Kitchen and

Garden, near Carmarthen, has taught thousands of

children and adults to grow and cook their own

food and is a Welsh television and radio regular.

Lisa’s new project, planned for Autumn 2018, is a

purpose-built cookery school and skills centre, plus

coffee shop, in a converted cow shed at Allt y Gog Farm, adjacent to the

Pumpkin Patch. One of Lisa’s demos this weekend will be a fish chowder,

and children will also be able to help her decorate her own gingerbread

Saundersfoot harbour village!

The South Wales Gay Men’s Chorus

Saundersfoot’s legendary annual Cawl Trail returns next March. Can The

BoatHouse retain its crown? It’s up to you to decide! Take part in the trail,

taste the cawl around venues in the village and vote for your favourite.

There is a lot on besides cawl – including music and a village trail for the

children – it’s a brilliant family day out. Keep the date free and check

Facebook and our website for updates.
