St Non’s Chapel is a small and charming chapel located in Pembrokeshire, Wales. Unusual in that it is aligned north–south rather than the usual east–west, is situated on the coast with views of the Irish Sea, this chapel is surrounded by stunning countryside. In addition to the chapel, there is also a holy well nearby that is said to grant wishes to those who make a wish in it. Legend has it that St Non’s Chapel was built on the spot where St Non, the mother of St David (the patron saint of Wales), gave birth to him in the 5th century (in a raging storm). The chapel has undergone many renovations and restorations over the years, but has managed to retain its ancient character.

Inside, visitors can see a 12th century stone font, a stone altar, and stained glass windows, as well as various ancient artifacts and religious relics. The chapel is close to walking trails through the surrounding countryside. St David’s City, a beautiful and historic city, is not far away either. In short, St Non’s Chapel is a must-see destination for those visiting Pembrokeshire, with its rich history, holy well, and beautiful surroundings.
