For the walker, the Pembrokeshire coastal path is close at hand and for the birdwatcher, the nearby islands of Skomer and Skokholm are sanctuaries for breeding sea birds such as guillemots, razorbills, puffins and kittiwakes.

The nearest beach is at Broad Haven, a 20 minute stroll through woodland, rich in bird life and wild flowers. For the less energetic, Broad Haven car park can be reached in less than 5 minutes. Here can be found the National Park Information Centre with general information, maps and books as well as offering a programme of field excursions and lectures.

Other beaches within the area are Nolton, Druidstone, Little Haven, Newgale and Marloes Sands, all excellent for sandcastles! Little Haven is well worth a visit especially for the inns and restaurants. Fresh crabs, lobsters and mackerel can be bought here during the summer months.

The old county town of Pembrokeshire, Haverfordwest, is ten minutes drive away with a selection of small shops, high street stores and a market hall.

Apart from 'seaside' attractions, there are fifteen castles in Pembrokeshire, about half of these being open to the public. Rural crafts are well represented with woollen mills, pottery, woodcraft, slate, stone and iron works and cheese makers. There are two sea‑life centres at St. Davids and several farm parks in the area. The on‑site laundry also contains much local information.
