Pembrokeshire

Southwestern Welsh region

Pembrokeshire is a county in southwest Wales, occupying a peninsula jutting into the Irish Sea.

Known for its rugged coastline and national park, it's sometimes called "Little England beyond Wales" for its historically anglicized character.

We spent a week hiking in Pembrokeshire.
