Tenby

One of my favourite Welsh haunts is Tenby and it's surrounding area. There is so much to do, it makes for a perfect family holiday - even if you don't get beach weather every day. Tenby itself has plenty of facilities for the traveller and plenty of room on it's beaches. There is an array of places to eat with fresh fish being the speciality along with a variety of Welsh lamb dishes.
Venture into the surrounding countryside for attractions such as Folly Farm (for the kids), Pembertons Chocolate Farm (for yourself), there are castles, gardens and outdoor pursuits of all kinds within easy reach of Tenby. The rest of the Pembroke coast offers alternative beaches if Tenby gets too busy. A relaxing time can also be had on Caldey Island, boats run from Tenby beach at regular intervals (£10 per head for adults) over to the Island populated by monks.
There are a lot of caravan parks around this area mostly populated with fixed site caravans, many of which are available for hire. Holiday lets in cottages and flats around the region are also widely available. If you are anywhere near the 'M4 corridor' travelling to Pembroke is a cinch as long as you are aware that there is a short stretch of the M4 through Swansea limited to 50mph.

  1. I really like Tenby too. It is a long time since I have been but I remember it being very relaxing with lots of lovely beaches and plenty of towns nearby so lots to do.
