Check in to a windmill

The City of St Davids, named for a Welsh national hero, tried to hide itself in a hollow to stop those pesky Vikings from spotting it from the sea and raiding it. Unfortunately it didn't work; the cathedral was ransacked at least seven times. Today, enjoy modern comforts by checking into the environmentally friendly TYF Eco Hotel. After climbing its spiral staircase to the Top Tower lounge, you’ll get a full view of St. David's Peninsula and, on a clear day, you may even be able to see Ireland.

Hear traditional music up close

Male voice choirs are a Welsh tradition. One particularly intimate way of experiencing this most Welsh of musical forms is to drop in on rehearsal, where you’re certain to experience the warmest of Welsh welcomes and might even get the chance to join the musicians for a pint afterwards.
