Broad Haven 16 km

Today we had a shorter walk again, only 16km, from Marloes into Broad Haven. Although fairly short, the track was up and down in parts and my knees were certainly feeling it. For the first time, my feet started to hurt, so I am hoping that will pass soon. Along the way we passed a few walkers out for their weekend hikes and a few dog walkers. It appears the "season" for walking the coastal path starts next week, when everything picks up in terms of weather and the influx of tourists and places start to get busy.
Along the way we passed St Brides' estate, a very fancy castle like structure which now accommodates tourists. The scenery continues to be dramatic and stunning...although in some places, there isn't a lot of manoeuvring room and one tumble the wrong way could see you plunge over the cliff  :)
We stopped for a quick drink at Little Haven then we had to walk out on a very steep road! Back on the path again for the walk into Broad Haven, which has the most loveliest beach and the views from our B and B are wonderful. My room is so tiny, up in the roof almost. The shower is designed for a midget. I will appreciate my large shower when I get home!
Tea at the nearby Ocean Restaurant was nice. Tomorrow we are walking to Solva.
