Pembrokeshire (/ˈpɛmbrʊkʃɪər/, /ˈpɛmbrʊkʃər/, or /ˈpɛmbroʊkʃɪər/; Welsh: Sir Benfro [ˈsiːr ˈbɛnvrɔ]) is a county in the south west of Wales. It borders Carmarthenshire to the east and Ceredigion to the north east. Pembrokeshire County Council's headquarters are in the county town of Haverfordwest.
The county is home to Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, the only coastal national park of its kind in the United Kingdom and one of three national parks in Wales, the others being Snowdonia and Brecon Beacons national parks. Over the years Pembrokeshire's beaches have been awarded many International Blue Flag Awards, Green Coast Awards and Seaside Awards. In 2011 it had 39 beaches recommended by the Marine Conservation Society.
Pembrokeshire's population, according to the UK Census, was 114,131 in 2001 rising to 122,400 by the following census in 2011, an increase of 8.2%.
Much of Pembrokeshire has been speaking English for many centuries. The boundary between the English and Welsh speakers is known as the Landsker Line and southern Pembrokeshire is occasionally referred to as Little England beyond Wales.
Pembrokeshire Coast National Park (Welsh: Parc Cenedlaethol Arfordir Penfro) is a national park along the Pembrokeshire coast in west Wales.
It was established as a National Park in 1952, and is the only one in the United Kingdom to have been designated primarily because of its spectacular coastline. It is one of three National Parks in Wales, the others being the Brecon Beacons (Bannau Brycheiniog) and Snowdonia (Eryri).
The National Park has a varied landscape of rugged cliffs, sandy beaches, wooded estuaries and wild inland hills, covering a total area of 629 km2 (243 sq mi). It falls into four distinct sections. Running clockwise around the coast, these are the south Pembrokeshire coast, including Caldey Island; the Daugleddau estuary; the St Bride's Bay coast, including the coastal islands; and the Preseli Hills. However, not all of the park is coastal, and there are even forests and marshes on the edges of the park.

Tony Robinson and the Team visit a tiny windswept island off the coast of Wales. The only way to get to it is by rigging a 500-metre zip wire way above the wave-lashed rocks. No copyright infringement has been intended by the uploading of this video; I am simply trying to share this amazingly interesting series.
Pembrokeshire in Wales is a hidden national treasure with beautiful gardens, the only National Coast Park in Britain, and the Landsker, a line of castles and strongholds built in the 11th century by Normans to act as a barrier between England and Wales. We visit Pembroke Castle, where Henry Tudor was born, and which was the centre for Norman rule in West Wales, and Carew Castle built on the site of an Iron Age fort. Picton and Upton Castles, Saundersfoot and Colby have magnificent gardens and for scenery we were blown away by the sweeping crescent of jagged cliffs, sandy beaches, and incredible sea views along the 186 mile Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Path. For more information visit www.ontopoftheworld.net and check out episode #6 in Journeys through the British Isles.

Travel Wales | 10 Best Places to Visit in Wales Wales shares a great deal of history with the rest of Great Britain, but the rugged beauty of its landscapes and the open nature of its inhabitants make it a distinctly unique travel destination. For first-time visitors, the most obvious difference between Wales and the other lands in the United Kingdom is the tongue-twisting Welsh language. While everyone speaks English, part of the fun of visiting Wales is learning a few phrases of one of the oldest languages in Europe. Besides its Celtic culture, the country is also famous for the large number of imposing castles. Wales’s scenic mountains, valleys and coastlines are just as enchanting, and no visit to Wales is complete without a long tramp through one of its stunning national parks. An ov...
Henry VII - or Henry Tudor - was born at Pembroke Castle, Pembrokeshire in 1457, the son of Margaret Beaufort and Edmund Tudor. Backed by a small force of French soldiers, Henry Tudor landed at Mill Bay near Milford Haven in August 1485 and called on the Welsh to rally to his banner. He went on to defeat Richard III at the battle of Bosworth Field and to bring a measure of peace and stability as King. www.visitpembrokeshire.com
