| The Pembrokeshire Coast National
Park, on the far west coast of Wales, has one of the most
spectacular coastlines in Europe. An ancient and powerful
landscape dotted with pre-historic standing stones, and
steeped in Celtic and Arthurian legend.
Tantalising glimpses of the sea are revealed as we cycle
along quiet lanes to picturesque fishing harbours, towering
cliffs pounded by Atlantic breakers, and sandy beaches where
we can swim.
Our rides visit the surfing beaches of Whitesands and Newgale,
Carreg Samson pre-historic cromlech, the medieval cathedral
village of St. David's, and the wild seascape of Strumble
Head.
We stay at Cuffern Manor, an
18th century manor house situated just three miles inland
from the vast sweep of Newgale beach, in north Pembrokeshire.
Three acres of secluded grounds, include a walled organic
vegetable garden. Accommodation (3-star) is in single, twin,
and double bedrooms (2 are en-suite).
On the optional cycle-free day you could take a boat trip
around the RSPB wildlife reserve of Ramsey Island, walk
along part of the dramatic Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, or
spend the day on the beach.
