FROM presents to pony rides, there's plenty going on in Milford Haven in the run-up to Christmas.

The fun starts on December 9, when Father Christmas will be in his Grotto at Milford Haven Museum from noon until 4pm.

Meet Jolly Saint Nick, and tell him whether you've been naughty or nice this year.

No charge, but donations are welcome. Spaces are limited.

PAT Ponies will also be offering pony rides for £4 each outside the museum from 11am to 12.30pm, and 1.30pm to 3pm.

Christmas characters the Snowman and the Snowdog will also be making personal appearances at intervals between 11am and 4pm.

A free 'Nutcracker Trail' will also take place between 11am to 4pm, just pick up a booklet from the Museum or Link Building for the chance to win a £100 voucher for your favourite Milford Waterfront business.

On Wednesday, December 13, and Wednesday, December 20, enjoy late night shopping at many stores, and special seasonal offers.

Businesses taking part include Francesca's Pet Salon, Pebbles, Crow's Nest Cafe, The Lounge, Spinnaker Cafe, Image by Vanessa, Trwffl, Anna Waters Gallery, St Brides Bay, Lousie Wiseman Accupuncture, and new store Boobaloo Boutique.

As well as all of this, Pembrokeshire County Council is offering free parking on Saturdays and Sundays in December in all council car parks.
