A FARM and visitor attraction at Gumfreston, near Tenby has been declared a TripAdvisor 2025 Travellers’ Choice Awards winner, with visitors’ ratings and reviews placing it among the top 10 things to do worldwide!

Set in the beautiful Pembrokeshire countryside, the 175-acre Great Wedlock Farm and Deer Park usually has somewhere between 170 and 200 deer in the park at any one time. All of the deer are from one of three types: Red Deer, White Red Deer and Fallow Deer.

A two-mile country walk runs around the perimeter of the park. The attraction also offers daily safaris and visitors can hire 4-seater self-drive all-terrain electric safari buggies.

An eco-friendly farm, Great Wedlock Farm and Deer Park is completely powered by green energy generated by solar panels, and includes a special untouched 26-acre area around the river Ritec which is kept as a nature reserve.

Winning a Travellers’ Choice award isn’t easy. It speaks to the exceptional hospitality the farm provides everyone who experiences it. This award the result of real-life traveller insights collected over a 12-month period on Tripadvisor.
