The Secret Season for Couples When Pembrokeshire Slows Down

If you’re dreaming of a peaceful getaway with your partner, we genuinely believe June and July are some of the best months to visit Pembrokeshire.

While many people think of summer holidays as being all about the school break, there’s a wonderful sweet spot just before the peak season arrives. The days are long, the countryside is at its very best, and many of Pembrokeshire’s most beautiful beaches, coastal paths and villages can still be enjoyed at a more relaxed pace.

Here at Newgale Holidays, we’ve always loved this time of year. The landscape is bursting with colour, the sea often takes on that incredible turquoise glow, and there’s something special about having a little more space to enjoy it all.

For couples looking to switch off from busy lives, our collection of Pembrokeshire cottages offers the perfect base. Whether you’re enjoying a morning coffee overlooking the countryside, unwinding in a private hot tub after a day exploring, or simply spending quality time together without the usual distractions, it’s the kind of break that leaves you feeling properly refreshed.

One of the greatest pleasures of a summer stay in West Wales is getting out and exploring the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. From the dramatic cliffs around Newgale and Solva to the breathtaking views at Marloes, St Davids and Broad Haven, there are endless opportunities for memorable walks. Wildlife is abundant too, with seabirds, dolphins and seals regularly spotted along the coastline.

And then there are the sunsets...

We never tire of them. As the evening light stretches across St Brides Bay, the sky often transforms into a canvas of gold, pink and orange. Whether you’re sitting on the beach with fish and chips, enjoying a drink in your cottage garden, or soaking in a hot tub beneath the evening sky, these are the moments that stay with you long after you’ve returned home.

Many of our guests tell us that these quieter summer weeks feel like Pembrokeshire at its very best. The beaches are still stunning, the attractions are open, the weather is often glorious, but there’s a gentler pace that allows you to truly unwind and reconnect. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, planning a romantic getaway, or simply treating yourselves to a well-earned break, it’s the perfect time to escape.

Our cottages are designed to help you do exactly that. From relaxing hot tubs and comfortable living spaces to spectacular views and easy access to the coast, everything is here for a memorable stay. All you need to do is arrive, switch off and make the most of it.

We’d love to welcome you to Pembrokeshire this summer and help you discover why so many couples return to Newgale Holidays year after year. Once you’ve experienced those peaceful coastal mornings, dramatic sunsets and star-filled evenings for yourself, you’ll understand exactly why they keep coming back.
