The St Davids Peninsula is such a romantic destination, with glorious beaches, cosy pubs, stunning coastal views and picturesque cottages. There’s no better place to spend quality time with the one you love and share new experiences! So, here are our top tips to make sure your holiday to the St Davids Peninsula is full of romance.
Visit the Blue Lagoon
Nestled just around the corner from Abereiddy Beach, the Blue Lagoon is a truly stunning sight. Deep blue waters, sheer cliffs and a churning sea beyond, this is a place of peace and wonder. A walk here with a picnic is sure to start your romantic break the right way.
Wine and Dine
As well as plenty of natural beauty, St Davids has loads of places to eat and drink to suit your preferences and budget. From the tasting menu featuring locally foraged ingredients at the Really Wild Emporium and cocktails and fine dining at Blas, to an Angry Dog burger and a couple of pints over a game of scrabble at The Sloop. Whatever floats your boat, Pembrokeshire has got it!

Relax at Menevia Spa
Once the adrenaline rush has subsided, relax and unwind with treatments and some time in the bathhouse at the gorgeous Menevia Spa in St Davids. A haven of tranquillity, a visit to this small spa will leave you feeling like you’re floating on air!
Climb Carn Llidi at sunrise
The view from the summit of Carn Llidi is breathtaking at any time of the day, but at first light on a still morning, you will feel like the only two people in the world. Take some croissants and a flask of coffee and enjoy the view.
Eat Fish & Chips from The Shed on Porthgain Harbour
It is possible to come to the coast and not have fish and chips… but why would you?? Our favourite way to eat the beautifully fresh fish and perfect chips from The Shed is looking out to sea from Porthgain’s Harbour Wall.
Walk to Pointz Castle
From Solva Harbour, get your walking boots on and make your way along the coast path, taking in the stunning panoramic views. You’ll reach Pointz Castle, a pebble beach that is only accessible by foot or water. If you’re feeling adventurous a fire and a couple of tea bags are all you need. If that isn’t your style, make your way up to Pointz Castle Ice Cream for coffee and their delicious homemade ice cream!
