Tremendous Tenby, a Castle and a Cathedral

Day 1

We arrive at our hotel in time for dinner.

Day 2

Today we visit the National Botanic Garden of Wales, a beautiful mix of modern and historic gardens and woodland trails set in the idyllic Carmarthernshire countryside. Take a journey through six Mediterranean climate zones to view some of the world's most endangered plants in the garden's centrepiece, the world's largest single-span glasshouse. Admire the kaleidoscope of exotic butterflies in the Tropical House, wonder at the fabulous displays at the British Bird of Prey Centre and discover the lakes, ponds and an inspiring range of themed gardens, including a Japanese Garden, Bog Garden and Apothecary's Garden.

Day 3

We spend a delightful day exploring the quintessential seaside town of Tenby whose narrow streets wind down from the medieval centre to the picturesque harbour, framed by pastel painted cottages. Wander through the charming, cobbled streets and take time out to watch the world go by from a quaint cafe. Enjoy a stroll along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path for stunning views or relax with an ice cream on one of Tenby's glorious golden sandy beaches. Alternatively you could take a boat trip to the tranquil monastic Caldey Island or head out to sea mackerel fishing.

Day 4

This morning we visit Pembroke Castle, a spectacular medieval fortress surrounded on three sides by River Cleddau and birthplace of Henry VII. The castle is great to explore with wall walks and a maze of spiral stairs, towers and battlements - climb the keep for fabulous views, peer into a medieval dungeon and descend into a pre-historic cave. In the afternoon we enjoy an excursion to the spectacular St David's Cathedral, nestled in a sheltered valley beneath the smallest city in Britain, and an important place of pilgrimage since the 12th century.

Day 5

After breakfast, we make our way home.
