The market town and ferry port of Fishguard offers a ferry terminal to Southern Ireland, Goodwick Sands provides a safe beach for families, with other coves and beaches such as Abercastle, Abermawr and Porthgain. all within easy driving distance. South West of Fishguard lies St Davids, a popular Cathedral City, which has the benefit of numerous facilities which briefly include Schools, Chapels, Banks, Restaurants, Hotels, Art Galleries, Gift Shops, Supermarket, etc. Renowned as Britain's smallest city, at the heart of which stands the historic Cathedral and ruined Bishops Palace, St Davids is a vibrant coastal community, situated on the most westerly tip of Wales. Lying within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, St Davids is a focal point on one of the most spectacular and unspoilt coastlines in the country, famous for the coastal path, with an abundance of wildlife, within easy reach of the beaches and coves of Caerfai Porthclais, Whitesands, Solva and Abereiddy. 8 miles south of High Roost is Pembrokeshire’s west coast, with long sandy beaches such as Newgale, one of the best known Blue Flag beaches in West Wales with its three miles of beautiful sand, pebbled bank and wonderful surf, and Broadhaven, the long sandy beach being particularly popular with 'bucket and spade' and boating enthusiasts, whilst walkers and bird-watchers appreciate the coastal path, which leads to the quaint coastal village of Little Haven, historically a fishing village. Further along the west coast, Pembrokeshire’s offshore islands are famous for their incredible natural beauty and fantastic array of wildlife, both above and below the surface with boat trips operating for over 40 years. Skomer and Skokholm islands and their surrounding waters are home to a huge variety of birds, including the largest Puffin Colony in Southern Britain, and the largest concentration of Manx-Shearwaters in the world. Further inland lies the county town of Haverfordwest, which has numerous facilities to offer, including popular high street stores, schools and a further educational college, hospital, main line train station, cinema, leisure centre and restaurants. Across the Cleddau Bridge are various tourist attractions that Pembrokeshire are renowned for, with wildlife hot spots such as Folly Farm and Anna’s Welsh Zoo home to a host of animals, from tigers and lions to peacocks and wallabies, and adventure parks and activity centres such as Heatherton and Oakwood Theme Park. The Bluestone Resort is a 5* National Park Resort, offering fine cuisine, log cabin accommodation and a waterpark ideal for family breaks and days out. The Port of Pembroke immediately off the Cleddau Bridge, located on the edge of the Milford Haven waterway, with its historic Royal Dockyard, and is now the site of the Irish Ferries terminal to Rosslare. The A477 continues through to the popular destinations of Saundersfoot; a prominent Pembrokeshire seaside resort located at the foot of a picturesque wooded valley. Its appeal is due to the superb sandy beaches and the attractive harbour, which provide unrivalled opportunities for water-sports, beach games, fishing and simply messing about in boats. The neighbouring town of Tenby is also of similar popularity, Harbour Beach having secured the top spot of ‘Best Beach in Europe’ because of the quality of its water, the beauty of its environment and its reputation among visitors, e-tourist organisation European Best Destinations said. Slightly further afield is the well known Pendine Sands and the Town of Camarthen with its shopping precincts and Cinema, Main Line Railway Station.

  • The Search for San Ffraid
    The Search for San Ffraid ‘A thesis submitted to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in the fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts’ 2012 Jeanne Mehan 1 Abstract The Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, called in Ireland and Scotland St Brigid (also called Bride, Ffraid, Bhríde, Bridget, and Birgitta) have not previously been documented. This Irish saint is said to have traveled to Wales, but the Welsh evidence comprises a single fifteenth-century Welsh poem by Iorwerth Fynglwyd; numerous geographical dedications, including nearly two dozen churches; and references in the arts, literature, and histories. This dissertation for the first time gathers together in one place the Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, integrating the separate pieces to reveal a more focused image of a saint of obvious importance in Wales. As part of this discussion, the dissertation addresses questions about the relationship, if any, of San Ffraid, St Brigid of Kildare, and St Birgitta of Sweden; the likelihood of one San Ffraid in the south and another in the north; and the inclusion of the goddess Brigid in the portrait of San Ffraid. 2 Contents ABSTRACT ........................................................................................................................ 2 CONTENTS........................................................................................................................ 3 FIGURES ...........................................................................................................................
