Jubilee Park and Nature Trail

Walking boots on, you'll find yourself meandering through woodland paths that feel properly wild despite being just outside Kilgetty. The nature trail loops through mixed deciduous forest where red squirrels occasionally dart between the oaks - though you'll need patience and a bit of luck to spot them.

Families with youngsters will appreciate the well-maintained paths that aren't too challenging, though pushchair users might struggle with some of the rougher sections. The trail takes about an hour at a leisurely pace, perfect for working off a camp breakfast from one of the nearby holiday parks like Cross Park Holiday Village or Florence Springs.

Bird watchers should bring binoculars - the variety here is impressive for such a compact reserve. Spring brings bluebells carpeting the forest floor, while autumn delivers that satisfying crunch underfoot.

What sets this spot apart from grander Pembrokeshire attractions is its understated charm. No entrance fees, no crowds, just proper countryside rambling. The park connects nicely with longer coastal walks if you're feeling ambitious, or serves as a gentle warm-up before tackling the more demanding sections of the Wales Coast Path. It's the sort of place that reminds you why getting muddy boots is part of the Welsh holiday experience.
