Families have the chance to experience winter in times gone by at two of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park's most popular visitor attractions.
There's the opportunity to meet Father Christmas - who'll be dressed in his traditional green costume - at Castell Henllys Iron Age Fort, and you'll be able to make your own Christmas decorations from recycled materials at Carew Castle.
Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority manages the two attractions and has put on a series of family activities in the run-up to Christmas and in the New Year.
