    This small hermit’s chapel can be found at the bottom of a long and steep set of steps, nestled into the cliffs. The effort is worth it, though, as this immensely atmospheric place cannot be missed.

    Whilst the exact history is unclear, St Govan was an Irish Abbott living in the 6th century. According to legend, Govan was on his way to Wales when Irish pirates attacked him. Govan ran to the cliffside and the rocks miraculously transformed into a secret cave that concealed him. After his attackers left, he remained in the cave and, as thanks to God, set up a monastic hermitage. He remained there for the rest of his life, surviving solely on the nature around him.

    NOTE: This Highlight is on a MOD army tank range and is closed at certain times. Call Pembroke Visitor Centre on 01437 776499 to check if the range is open to the public. Alternatively, you can check by visiting: gov.uk/government/publications/castlemartin-firing-notice--2

      A beautiful place worth visiting and seeing with your own eyes. The chapel is rather well preserved ruins of what was once here. Down a fairly steep road with lots of stairs made of stone, it's worth spending time and going down to see the views and rub pictures. Note, this area belongs to the army and there is a military training ground. You should check if it's open when you go there. In my experience I can say that it is always open on Saturdays and Sundays.

        Very beautiful view and a small, simple chapel. Steep path and slippery steps. The story about St Govan who (allegedly) hid in the crevice is quite interesting.

          An incredibly beautiful place. One arrives at this small chapel built on the steep rock face over a military area. The path is very easy to walk and imposing. We just followed our instincts - we could not recognize a developed Touri way or a large signage. When we were there in the early evening (tip) no tourists were present.

          We are not too far forward to the coast because the stones are quite smooth.
          On the way to the Chapel you can find small and quite lonely bays in some isolated places - but you also have to be careful, otherwise you will be surprised by the tide.

            Well worth the climb down all the steps. Be careful as some are particularly polished & worn

              St Govan's Chapel is a rock cell where a saint lived. According to legend, he had a magic bell that he used to warn pirates. Exciting and a special atmosphere here!

                You can hardly estimate what awaits you here from above. The path down the slippery steps is deficient. value!

                  ST GOVANS CHAPEL.
                  ... Tucked into the cliffs on the Castlemartin Range, St Govan’s Chapel, and wow what a great place to explore.​ Legend suggests that Saint Govan is buried underneath the chapel's altar, located at the east end of the building.
                  Highly recommend a visit.❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
