Journeys: Pembrokeshire, Wales -- Castles and Coast
Pembrokeshire in Wales is a hidden national treasure with beautiful gardens, the only National Coast Park in Britain, and the Landsker, a line of castles and strongholds built in the 11th century by Normans to act as a barrier between England and Wales. We visit Pembroke Castle, where Henry Tudor was born, and which was the centre for Norman rule in West Wales, and Carew Castle built on the site of an Iron Age fort. Picton and Upton Castles, Saundersfoot and Colby have magnificent gardens and for scenery we were blown away by the sweeping crescent of jagged cliffs, sandy beaches, and incredible sea views along the 186 mile Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Path. For more information visit ontopoftheworld.net and check out episode #6 in Journeys through the British Isles.
Pembrokeshire Cottages
Pembrokeshire is one of the most popular coastal destinations in Wales that draws holidaymakers all round the year. Most tourists prefer staying in one of the Pembrokeshire cottages located by the coast or further inland. This place is as well known for its breathtaking natural beauty as it is for its treasure trove of manmade wonders. Some of the must-visit places of interest in Pembrokeshire include the Lamphey Bishops Palace, The National Coracle Centre, St Davids Cathedral, Haverfordwest Castle, The Coach House Heritage Centre, and The Cilwendeg Shell House Hermitage. You can also take a tour of the Castell Henllys Iron Age Fort, Carew Cheriton Control Tower, and the Manorbier Castle.
Museum lovers can visit the Scolton Manor Museum and Country Park that covers a sprawling area of sixty acres or head to the Pembrokeshire Motor Museum to see an exhibition of locally owned vintage cars, bikes, and motorcycles. Those with an artistic penchant can take a tour of the Tenby Museum and Art Gallery and admire the fascinating artwork on display. Apart from sightseeing, you can enjoy boat trips, go sea kayaking, enjoy family picnics in public gardens or beaches, play golf, sample the local cuisine, and indulge in some retail therapy while holidaying in Pembrokeshire. Thus, this coastal paradise has something to offer everyone.
