If you’re up for getting active, go coasteering around Cardigan Bay (half an hour’s drive), or paddling to hidden coves along the shores of Pembrokeshire Coast National Park (an hour). Ride out across moorland on horseback (45 minutes), or test your mountain-biking nerves on steep dust trails at Trydan Off Road Centre (10 minutes). After more suggestions? Fish for salmon and brown trout along the River Teifi (10 minutes), play golf on the championship course at Cardigan Golf Club (half an hour) or grab the walking boots and hike up to Cenarth Falls (55 minutes’ walk). Anyone in need of an animal fix can visit the gentle giants at Dyfed Shire Horse Farm (20 minutes’ drive), take a trek with the residents of Pembrokeshire Llamas (half an hour) or watch raptor flying displays at the National Botanic Garden of Wales (45 minutes). Need a wet-weather-day plan? Head for In The Welsh Wind Distillery (20 minutes) to explore the world of craft gin (and yes, tours end with tastings), or follow the process from fleece to fabric and admire the collection of textiles at the National Wool Museum (15 minutes).
