10 Things to do Good for Couples in Pembrokeshire That You Shouldn't Miss

October 24, 2021 Hana Mouser

The diminutive Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, a dramatic area of 225 square miles in southwest Wales, was set aside as a national park in 1952 and comprises a large portion of the Pembrokeshire coast and its islands and the moorland hills of Mynydd Preseli. Rugged cliffs and coastal rock formations are home to boisterous populations of seabirds, porpoises, whales, seals and dolphins. Cycle, hike or sea kayak around the spectacular coastline. Bird watching and rock climbing are also popular.

Folly Farm

If you are looking for a fun and educational family day out in Wales then there is nowhere better than Folly Farm! With a zoo, farm, fairground and indoor and outdoor adventure play you'll leave understanding why it has twice been voted 'Best Family Day Out in Pembrokeshire and Wales'.

Reviewed By Pinkpuma36 - Holbeach, United Kingdom

As far as days out with kids in the UK go this is one of the best. There were giraffes, zebras, penguins and camels that you could get up close to, and Hugo the lion is stunning. He even gave us our money’s worth when he fancied getting it on with the lioness :-D There is a petting farm indoors and a vintage funfair also indoors with many rides for all ages (great if the weather is poor) There are a few rides outside too including a twister and big wheel and also some go carts. We were there from opening to closing and were never bored once. There’s a big pirate ship to play in with an outdoor play area too. My son loved the huge sand area with the sit on diggers too. There really is so much to do and everything looked clean and well maintained. Even paying for the rides (token system) on top of the entry fee, I’d still say it was well worth the money considering what you get for your money. It was less than a third of the price we paid to get in to Legoland and value for money can’t be compared. We did so much more at Folly Farm as you don’t spend the whole day in a queue (even in the summer holidays) and it never felt overcrowded as it’s so spaced out, so a far more enjoyable fun day out. Can’t fault it.

Wales Coastal Path

The Welsh coastline has many contrasts and really does offer something for everyone. From cliff top strolls to estuarine wanders, picturesque fishing villages to vibrant cities, industrial heritage to unconquered castles, desolate windswept beaches to bustling seasides. The Wales Coast Path not only takes you through the Welsh landscape, it takes you through its heritage and its communities.The Pembrokeshire section is home to the iconic and world-class landscape of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and wildlife rich islands. The Path (which has National Trail status here) passes through some of Britain's most spectacular and breathtaking scenery, including 58 beaches and 14 harbours and the UK's smallest city - St Davids.

Reviewed By andream419 - Kidderminster, United Kingdom

We hiked several sections of the path, all with staggering views and we saw seals and birds, azure waters and wild flowers. So lovely and special. The path from porth clais to porth y ffynnon is amazing.

Pembrokeshire Coast Path

The Pembrokeshire Coast Path National Trail twists and turns its way through 186 miles of the most breathtaking coastal scenery in Britain. From St Dogmaels in the north to Amroth in the south, the trail covers almost every kind of maritime landscape from rugged cliff tops and sheltered coves to wide-open beaches and winding estuaries. Lying almost entirely within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park -Britain's only coastal national park - the trail displays an array of coastal flowers and bird life, as well as evidence of human activity from Neolithic times to the present. In its entirety the Coast Path represents a formidable physical challenge - its 35,000 feet of ascent and descent is said to be equivalent to climbing Everest - yet it can also be enjoyed in shorter sections, accessible to people of all ages and abilities, with the small coastal villages strung out along its length offering welcome breaks and added enjoyment. Both the Wales Coast Path [WCP](opened 5th May 2012) and the International Appalachian Trail [IAT](since October 2010) follow the route of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path through Pembrokeshire.

Wonderful walking along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, with wonderful spectacular views. There was, during the 2 stints that I walked the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, a couple of days of foul weather. A balanced mixture of ascents and descents while embarking upon the walk

The Secret Owl Garden

Since 2004 the team have been offering award-winning bird of prey flying experiences, where it’s all about you flying the birds yourself. Whilst our New Secret Owl Garden is being built you will still be able to book to come and fly the owls every day as normal. We are creating a ‘Mini Owl Garden’ which is safe and secure (and very cute!) at our beautiful new home at Celtic Holiday Parks, Noble Court, Narberth. This will be temporary for the owls whilst the new site is developed, but will still give you the same, personal and exciting opportunity to meet and fly the owls within an outstanding countryside landscape. Your flying experience is just about You and our Owls. So, you will have them and a member of the team all to yourself, enabling you to spend quality time with the owls in their home environment and then flying them free yourself. We offer both group sessions and private experiences!

Pembroke Castle

One of the most magnificent of Britain's castles is the "birth place of the Tudor Dynasty." You can climb the 80ft Great Keep, descend into a pre-historic cave and look down into a prisoner in a medieval dungeon. There is also a cafe and gift shop. During school holidays there are falconry displays, historic re-enactments and family entertainment. The main exhibition rooms display models and weaponry as well as telling the story of the history of the castle. You can also visit the room that King Henry VII the founder of the Tudor Dynasty was born.

We had a great time at Pembroke castle: the castle itself, and it’s history are wonderful and we took a free guided tour with Gareth (“the retired history teacher”) who was absolutely brilliant, full of passion, knowledge and humour. Would definitely recommend anyone who is interested in history visit this castle (and anyone who isn’t normally!) and take advantage of the brilliant tours!

Skomer Island

Reviewed By BigPaulG101 - Bicester, United Kingdom

This was a trip my wife and I had wanted to do for sometime and Puffins were top of our list of birds to see up close. Wow how amazing Skomer is, Puffins as you arrive, Puffins as you walk around and Puffins as you leave along with every bird you could imagine even some hunting owls which made me a happy chap. There is a fairly tough walk from the boat landing area to the island area itself and even though the walks around the island are clear they are still rough going so proper walking shoes are required. My only issue is the system of getting from the mainland to the island, tickets have to be purchased on the day from the National Trust shop on a first come first served basis, the first boat is at 10am and people were queuing from 5am, we arrived at 8am and only just got on the last boat at 12 noon giving us a 4 hour wait, just seems a pre-booking system would be better for all. That’s my only gripe but the wait was worth it.
