Martin: Guide/ farm owner 


After having bought Ty Rhiw Farm in 1999 (the now home of 4x4 Driving School) Martin was looking for a diverse use for the 40 acres of former oak woodland and the surrounding woodland. After arranging to rent the site to the Glamorgan Off Road Club to hold a 4X4 Trial Comp the future was set for numerous 4X4 and motorbike clubs to use this great site for competitions and individuals to practice their off road driving skills. 

 

Dai:- Guide

Dai has been part of the team since the early stages, his calm and collected attitude works great with nervous customers. He is a great Guide and loves to reassure. You'll rarely see him without "Lenny" his white boxer.. but it's hard to tell who loves the mud more! If your stuck in the mud.. there's no one better to talk you out! 


Jonny:- Guide

When he's not travelling the world he likes to join us for a session or two. He's prob spent more time driving off road than all the guides.. but it's been in a golf buggy as he's been a Pro Golfer and club champion at Cotteral park golf club! He's got a calm nature and will help you conquer the steps of death!
