Inland Pembrokeshire is its own reward: the Preseli Hills' bluestone moorland (source of Stonehenge's inner circle), the wooded Gwaun Valley where time runs slower — the valley famously still marks New Year by the old calendar in mid-January — and deep farmland lanes between the two coasts. A countryside base costs less than the coast, puts both north and south beaches within half an hour, and gives you dark skies, red kites and silence.
