Take a walk along the beautiful Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, which runs from Amroth in the south to Dogmaels in the north, and visit a traditional woolen mill that is more than 200 years old.
Walk along a section of the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path with your experienced guide. You'll see the glorious sandy sweep of Whitesands Bay -- a curving, mile-long expanse of flat sands considered one of the best beaches in the country. Follow a small uphill slope to admire the superb views across Ramsey Sound, along the lovely bays of Porth Lleuog and Porthmelgan, and the rocky profile of Carn Llidi.
Back on the coach, you'll travel to Melin Tregwynt -- a traditional woolen mill in a remote, wooded valley on the Pembrokeshire Coast. The mill has been owned by the same family since 1912. Local farmers would bring their fleeces to be spun into yarn and woven into Welsh wool blankets. The mill still operates today, making local goods such as woolen rugs, cushions, clothing, and accessories.
Enjoy a guided tour of the mill and a Welsh cake in the beautiful gardens before returning to Fishguard.
Please note: Dress in layers. Wear sturdy non-skid walking shoes.
