Walks we love nearby
Jump in the car and meander along the coast road or through the Preseli Hills for stunning walks and awesome views even in the colder months of the year. There are so many adventures to be had in Pembrokeshire, Carmarthenshire and Ceredigion. We can lend you maps or point you in the best direction.
Castell Henllys & Pengeli Forest Loop
This beautiful walk includes both the recreated iron age settlement of Castell Henllys and the ancient Pengeli woods. Well maintained paths and numerous looping options mean you can choose a walk to suit your time. These pictures are mid Winter – in the Spring the Bluebells are amazing!
Cwm Gwaun
Discover this hidden gem of a valley that rises in the Preselis and enters the sea in Fishguard. There are a multitude of footpaths all along this gorgeous river valley and so an endless variety of walks. We’ve chosen one of our favourites as it’s short and sweet and includes the beautiful water fall in Alt Hendy. These ancient woods are beautiful at any time of year, full of flowers and birds, but are especially so when the Bluebells come out….
Carningli to Cwm-Yr-Eglwys
This is a great Sunday walk with spectacular views over Dinas Head and it’s downhill all the way! You’ll need two cars unless you are going to walk back up again… Head through Newport and turn left as you leave the village – drop your car in the car park by Myndd Caregog and follow the escarpment all the way to Dinas Head before descending to the coast at picturesque village of Cwm-yr-Eglwys with it’s ruined church and great swimming if so inclined.
Pentre Ifan and Ty Canol Woods
Discover Pembrokeshire’s ancient past on this short walk that has it all. Start at Pentre Ifan, Wales’ most famous standing stones and take in the views down to the coast with Newport Sands below you. Head down hill and pass through fields until you come to the bottom of Ty Canol’s ancient woodland. Make you way back up hill through abandoned iron age settlements and wonderful oak trees dripping in Lychen and Ferns. Re-emerge at the top of the woods looking down to Pentre Ifan for a different view of the stones.
