Excellent small menu (we love the dirty fried loaded with chilli, or veg, or fish!), with Sunday roast also very good. Open from 11 with food until 3, then coffee and cake.

One of our favourite circular walks. Park up and then walk around the whole of Dinas Island, which isn't an island but a stunning headland with views out to the east and west. Its a relatively strenuous walk along the coastal path, a couple of steep sections so walking boots essential to be safe.

Massive long beach popular with surfers. When the tide is in it is a ridge of high pebbles, but when it goes out there is a stunning vista with views right around St Bride's Bay. Couple of cafes/pubs by the beach and three large car parks just along from the main beach area - pay and display so ensure you have change.

Walk to the far end of Rosebush, or drive past the row of former miners' cottages and keep going to reach Rosebush Quarry where there is a beautiful, deep, wild swimming pond! Gorgeous to just sit by, dangle legs in the shallow section or swim if you're a good swimmer. No currents but becomes rapidly deep across its width.

Wild, unspoilt, rugged and hidden. This beach was even used in a James Bond film as a stand-in for North Korea (?!!) which i think means it is stunning rather than on the verge of dodgy nuclear testing. Well worth a visit. Park at the top of the track and walk down, limited chance to park at the beach. There is an eaterie in the car park but only in high season. Take food and drinks otherwise and this is remote!

Quite orientated to families, but worth a stop-off for a walk around the outdoor space....you can pay a little extra and walk right down to the viewing platforms and scenic viewpoints to spy dolphins, seals and porpoises. Cafe is basic but you can pick up some really lovely local items in the shop - artwork, books, soft furnishings.

You don't need to stay here to appreciate its incredible location. Use this as the start or end point for walks around the peninsula. One of the best places for seal spotting in season, incredibly craggy cliffs that make you feel like you're in Lord of the Rings and some incredible views. Quite challenging walking, some steep sections.
