Dale Hill Farm Campsite

The Gann Estuary high tide alternative route

Follows the Pembrokeshire Coast Path inland when high tides block the shoreline route around Dale. Mostly flat, well-maintained paths across fields and quiet lanes with occasional gentle slopes. Suitable for families and generally fine for sturdy buggies on drier days, though some sections can be muddy. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock. Worth doing for estuary views and birdwatching opportunities, plus you'll avoid getting cut off by the tide – a practical detour that doesn't sacrifice scene

Marloes Peninsula Coastal Walk, Pembroke

National Trust

Hugs dramatic Pembrokeshire cliffs with moderate ups and downs—manageable but not buggy-friendly due to uneven coastal paths and occasional steep sections. Dogs welcome on leads near nesting seabirds (spring/summer). Stunning sea views, rock formations, and wildlife spotting (seals, puffins at nearby Skomer) make this National Trust route exceptional. Best for families with confident older children who can handle clifftop terrain safely.

Martins Haven - The Deer Park Walk, Pembroke

National Trust

Loops through National Trust coastal grassland with gentle inclines and stunning clifftop views over St Brides Bay. Suitable for families with older children who can handle uneven ground and unfenced cliff edges—not buggy-friendly due to narrow paths and natural terrain. Dogs welcome on leads to protect ground-nesting birds and grazing deer. Short but rewarding for wildlife spotting, particularly seals offshore and the resident deer herd that gives this headland its name.
