Newport Attractions
Newport/Trefdraeth (7mi/11km east) is a pleasant resort on the River Nevern, with the ruins of a 13th century castle. It offers good beaches, excellent fishing and a golf course.
Carn Ingli Common, about 1mi/1.6km to the south of Pentre Ifan, has remains of an Early Christian settlement. From this area came 33 dolerite stones which were transported to Stonehenge. In the valley on the other side of the Preseli Hills stands the Gors Fawr, a stone circle similar to that at Stonehenge.

At Nevern/Nanhyfer (2mi/3.2km east of Pentre Ifan) is St Brynach's Church, dedicated to a Celtic saint. Visitors should enter the church to see the richly carved Celtic cross, 12.5ft/3.81m tall.
