The Pembrokeshire high street named among the loveliest in the UK

Explaining Narberth's spot on the list, The Times said: "Pretty Pembrokeshire is better known for its fresh-air pursuits, but if you would prefer to potter while the others hike (Pembrokeshire Coast National Park is just next door), then Narberth high street is the place for you.

"In colourful collusion, all the owners of the Georgian and Edwardian-era shops have painted them in rainbow shades; stop at Golden Sheaf Gallery — dashing in daffodil yellow — to buy Welsh-made crafts, jewellery and contemporary art (goldensheafgallery.co.uk).

"Just behind the gallery, up Back Lane, seek out the Malthouse, which is filled to its exposed rafters with antiques and vintage goodies (malthouseantiqueswales.co.uk).

"Walkers can pack a picnic at Ultracomida deli and restaurant, which sells great Welsh and European cheeses (ultracomida.co.uk), then return post-hike to Top Joe’s Townhouse where the high street B&B will fortify them with big bathtubs and a hot breakfast."
