Members of Cowbridge Twinning association were delighted to be able to host a long-awaited visit by friends from Clisson over the past weekend.

The Twinning Association was established in 1991 as a Community Twinning Association with Municipal Support.

Cowbridge is twinned with the Medieval town of Clisson which is situated at the confluence of the Sèvre Nantaise and the Moine rivers in the Loire-Atlantique Department in France.

The association welcomes members from Cowbridge and the surrounding villages. There have been many visits between the two towns, organised and hosted by the committee and members of each association.

Reflecting on the weekend visit Heather Weddell, chair of the Cowbridge Association, said: "We shared good food and wine, visited St Fagans and numerous other places, did a treasure hunt in our town and a good time was had by all 70 plus people involved of all ages from teens to seniors.
