The stunning coastline of Pembrokeshire, with its many beaches and superb cliff top walks, is easily accessible with good road links and the main A40 road in the area links to other larger towns such as Carmarthen and Haverfordwest, both providing a wide range of national retailers, supermarkets and advanced educational facilities.
