If you're looking for the perfect spot to enjoy your summer holiday this year, you could do worse than strap on your walking footwear and head to Pembrokeshire.

Kate Morgan, food officer at Pembrokeshire County Council and organiser of Pembrokeshire Fish Week, said the region offers walkers a variety of things to see and do, like well-worn walking trails, fantastic local produce and a variety of beach spots.

"June and early July is the best time to visit the area before the main visitor season, when the warm spring weather brings the lush green pastures and colourful hedgerows, it is the best time to explore miles of coastal pathway and national park as well as the inland secret waterways," she said.

A typical day in Pembrokeshire might see you strap on your hiking footwear for a bracing hike on the Preseli Hills, before sampling the best food the region has to offer, like shellfish, potatoes, lamb and asparagus.

In the afternoon, why not head to the beach – Pembrokeshire boasts over 32 seaside awards and 13 blue flag awards.

"It is a great place to try some coastal adventures from coasteering to kayaking, surfing to sailing, adrenaline power boat island trips to bird watching river trips," Ms Morgan said.

According to research from Travelodge, over a third of Brits will holiday in the UK only this summer, with the average Briton taking three short breaks this year.
