Trefin

Trefin is a village in the county of Pembrokeshire, Wales. It is sometimes given the anglicised spelling Trevine, particularly on older maps, although the official name is now "Trefin" in both English and Welsh. Although small, Trefin is an historical village. It is inextricably linked to the Archdruid Crwys, who was born in Craig Cefn Parc, Glamorganshire, and the historical mill at Aberfelin is the subject of his most famous work 'Melin Trefin'.

Trefin is an area of outstanding beauty, surrounded by the Irish Sea and located on the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, between Porthgain and Abercastle. It has the convenience of being on the route of the Strumble Shuttle bus service, part of the Pembrokeshire Greenways public transport service. Trefin is located within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, the only coastal area included in the National parks of the United Kingdom.

Nowadays, Trefin is home to a small community of around 130 people, and houses a Royal Mail sub Post Office, an art and craft gallery/tearoom called Oriel y Felin, a weaving centre named Melin Trefin, two chapels and the local pub 'The Ship Inn'. Nearby villages include Llanrhian, Abercastle, Porthgain, Mathry, Square and Compass, Penparc and Croesgoch.
