Coastal and activities
Just a short distance from us is Caerphilly town centre. Its impressive castle surrounded by a moat towers over the shops and cafes and is well worth exploring before hitting the open road on your adventure.
Over halfway to your first destination the National Botanic Garden of Wales provide the perfect location to start the relaxation early on in your adventure (Llanarthne, Carmarthenshire).
The small seaside village of Saundersfoot is the perfect introduction to the spectacular Pembrokeshire coastline. The village’s wide sandy beach has Blue Flag status and the small harbour provides the perfect setting to enjoy a stroll, a bag of fish and chips or an ice cream. The amusement arcades add to the traditional seaside resort vibe. Saundersfoot also provides the perfect base from which to explore attractions slightly further afield, such as the popular Folly Farm.

Truly Stunning
The campsite in Pembrokeshire was truly stunning. The vibe there is very laid-back and the boat trip around Ramsey Island, was breath-taking. Several seals were spotted!

Fantastic trip
As we have a 10 year old we tried to go for those that had plenty to do so visited a number of the Haven sites along the coast (Tenby, Porthmadog & Pwlleli).
