As well as traversing two of Wales’
most acclaimed beauty spots
– the Gower Peninsula and the
Pembrokeshire Coast – this journey
offers the perfect introduction to
contemporary Welsh life. You’ll get
a taste of a large post-industrial
city, visit tiny fishing villages, travel
through fertile farmland and wash
up in St Davids – a place as close to
the Welsh soul as any could claim
to be.
