Emlyn Beagles

The Hunt was founded in 1966 by three sportsmen, a café owner, butcher and agricultural salesman, living in Newcastle Emlyn.[1] Initially the hounds were kept in a banana container behind the café with sufficient food sourced from the café and butcher shop.[1]

Traditionally the Emlyn Beagles was a hare hunting pack, since the Hunting Act 2004 they have made use of the exemptions for trail and rabbit hunting.[1]

The Hunt's country ranges from Ffair Rhos in Ceredigion to St Clears in Carmarthenshire, encompassing the Cambrian Mountains, Tregaron Bog, the Tywi valley and upland pasture around Newcastle Emlyn.[1]

The Hunt's country is principally mountain and moorland, with some more cultivated areas around Newcastle Emlyn and Cilycwm.[2] The best centres are around Llanddewi Brefi and Tregaron to the north, and Cwrt-y-Cadno and Cilycwm to the south.[1]
