Gerwyn Price has revealed he could soon welcome a camera crew onto his brand-new farm — while also hinting that he may be edging closer to stepping away from the oche.

“The Iceman”, 41, was left visibly frustrated after suffering an 8-3 defeat to Wessel Nijman in the European Darts Trophy final on Sunday.

Following the loss, Price took to Instagram to admit the mental strain of the sport is beginning to take its toll — even suggesting he may need time away from the game.

He wrote: “Great weekend for me, another final but very frustrating in the end. On to Dublin this week.

“Need a break from this, I think. It’s so tough mentally. But I’ll push on, thanks for the support.”

Away from darts, Price has been busy expanding his interests, recently stepping into a new business venture after purchasing a smallholding earlier this year.

The Welsh star already owns a farm in Treharris and even ventured into the food business with his fish and chips shop, Chippy 501, which he opened in his hometown of Markham in 2024.

Now, he is preparing to showcase the transformation of his latest farm project — and it could soon be documented on screen.

Speaking on the Tops and Tales podcast, Price revealed that plans are already in motion for a possible series following the renovation.

“I’ve just bought a farm. That’s in Treharris,” he said.

“There might be a series on it — maybe a documentary, or a TV channel coming in to film it. Not like Clarkson’s Farm or anything like that, just focused on the renovation side.

“It’s going to be out there soon. But if not, I’ll probably end up filming it myself and putting it on YouTube from start to finish.”

Price explained that the project is still in its early stages and could take up to 18 months before everything is complete.

“It’s going to take 12 to 18 months to get everything sorted before we actually move in,” he added.

“I just can’t wait for it to be finished. It’s something I’ve always wanted — just a smallholding, something a bit out of the way where I can have some privacy.”

Looking ahead, Price admitted the farm could even become his full-time focus once he eventually retires from professional darts.

“When I retire, I’ll probably run it as a proper farm,” he said. “But for now, I’ll likely lease most of the land out and just keep a few chickens and smaller animals.”

This isn’t the first time Price has considered walking away from the sport, having previously flirted with retirement before deciding to continue back in November 2024.

For now, however, he remains firmly in the mix on the biggest stage and is set to feature when the Premier League Darts heads to Dublin.

The 2021 world champion, currently sitting third in the table, will take on Josh Rock in the quarter-finals as he looks to bounce back in style.
