The Nag's Head has become more than a pub in this part of the world thanks to its reputation and history - not to mention delightful food and great service in a tranquil location. Robert Harries reports

CELEBRATED for its stunning beaches, dramatic coastline, abundant wildlife, and proximity to unspoilt nature, west Wales consistently ranks among Britain's most-coveted destinations for a holiday, a short break, a long walk, or a trip into the country for a bite to eat or a relaxing drink.

And a short drive from the famous Cenarth Falls, you'll find a very special pub filled with history, legend, and a beautiful ambience both inside and out.

Whether basking in the summer sun or cosying up beside the fire as autumn turns to winter, you'll always have a wonderful Welsh welcome at the brilliantly named Nag's Head.

The ancient pub is located in the tiny village of Abercych. It's a Pembrokeshire pub - although it lies less than half a mile from the tripoint of Pembrokeshire, Carmarthenshire, and Ceredigion. So no matter where you are in west Wales, this gorgeous spot never seems that far away.

Boasting a heritage stretching back to the 1700s, the pub is an award-winning, family-run riverside gastropub, which also offers accommodation.

Positioned within the picturesque Cych Valley and merely 10 miles from both the Preseli Hills and Cardigan Bay, the Nag's Head represents the ideal base for those seeking to discover the coastal wilderness.
