Top 5 Things to do Good for Big Groups in Pembroke, Wales
Situated near the south-west coast of Wales, the town of Pembroke is an excellent center for a holiday. A large part of the ancient town wall still exists in Pembroke, and when you walk down the main street you will see many Georgian and Tudor houses. There is a good choice of restaurants, cafes and pubs among the local shops. If Pembroke Castle inspires you, Manorbier and Carew Castles are also within easy reach. When you have had enough of history, you can relax on the superb South Pembrokeshire beaches or take a trip along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. Wildlife lovers will not want to miss the picturesque Haven Waterway on the edge of Pembrokeshire National Park.

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!
