The corner of Wales named one of the world's best travel destinations

Pembrokeshire has beaten the likes of Fiji, Santorini and the Bahamas to be named in the world's best travel destinations list.

Famed for its glorious beaches and rugged coastline, Pembrokeshire is one of only 10 UK destinations in the "Leading Places: The 100 Most Loved Travel Destinations Around the World" list. Compiled by reviewing millions of online conversations and reviews on sites such as TripAdvisor, the list ranks the county 19th based on a Tourism Sentiment Score of 30.8.

Unsurprisingly, this corner of west Wales has its beaches listed as its top asset which make it superior to more exotic holiday spots including Fiji, Santorini and the Bahamas. Perth and Kinross in Scotland is the only UK destination ranked higher, coming it at 11th with a score of 33.7.
