What to do and see in Pembrokeshire, Wales: The Best Things to do Good for a Rainy Day
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.

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'.

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.

A military fortress, museum and cafe located within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park at Angle, Pembrokeshire. Unfortunately we will not be opening at Easter as planned. We are following Government guidance in respect of Coronavirus and will remain closed until that advice changes.

Spent the afternoon at CBF and what an amazing time capsule this place is, Run by volunteers who simply do their job for the love of it and the information the various Guides have is absolutely incredible. The layout of the exhibits is interesting, with all the data displayed Ranging from modern weapons, going back several hundred years and a stunning view of the Haven which is hard to beat and more interestingly you become immersed in a way of military every day life that took place a hundred years ago. You wont be disappointed and you have a sandy beach just around the corner too. STUNNING

7. Pembroke Castle
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2,943 reviews
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!

Just spent the weekend at Cwm Deri camping. It was an absolute gem of a find - the ground are really pretty, the vineyards are lovely to walk around and the owners/staff couldn’t be more friendly and helpful. We stayed for 2 nights, Friday - Sunday and the facilities were spotless throughout with great covid-19 practice in place. We ate at the restaurant which was delicious and tried some cider and the wine tasting, also fantastic! All super tasty and extremely reasonably priced! We will definitely be returning to camp and also want to try out one of the cute shepherd huts available to book. An overall fantastic weekend and can’t thank Cwm Deri enough for that, can’t wait to see you again soon!

Reviewed By ajandrews2017 - Fishguard, United Kingdom
Brilliant exhibition and well worth visiting and telling others to visit as well. Superb embroidery done by a large number of people from the local community to celebrate two hundred years since the Last Invasion of the French against the Welsh in 1797. Has an accompanying film which shows how the Tapestry was made.
