Haverfordwest is a bustling market town, ideally situated at
the centre of Pembrokeshires road network. This is a great
location for holidaymakers because it means that all of the countys
main attractions are no more than a short drive away.
Its most attractive pedestrianised shopping centre, straddles
the pretty Cleddau river. Much of the precinct is under cover
so is ideal for occupying a wet afternoon.
The
retail park contains a number of large national shops, such as
Morrisons, Currys, Comet, Next, Laura Ashley, Sports World, Wickes,
Homebase, Pets At Home and Halfords. There is a Tesco Extra supermarket
(24 hour) on the other side of town which is just a mile away
from Haroldston. Aldi and Lidl are also represented in the town.
A popular farmers market is held on Riverside,
on alternate Fridays.
The town centre has several pubs, cafes and a thriving night club
which cater for all tastes.
The centre piece of Haverfordwest is the castle which was first established in the
early 12th century. This is surrounded by quaint mediaeval streets,
although most of the building facades date from a later era.
For
the fitness enthusiast, the town has a brand new, well-equipped
leisure centre, which is just 1 mile away
from Haroldston. The centre has a large swimming pool with 2
associated children's 'beach' pools. The well equipped gym has
a full range of state of the art equipment ideal for a vigorous
workout or game of squash. The dance studios have a regular programme
of classes, such as spin, body pump, step and pilates.
For those who are enjoying a walking holiday, access to beautiful
and extensive riverside walks is only half a mile from Haroldston.
The Western Cleddau section of the National Coastal Park is within walking distance
at Little Milford. There is also a dedicated off road cycle path
that starts near to Haroldston and covers the 11 miles to Neyland
Marina.
