This week, TV presenter Leni Hatcher has been hitting the streets in Tenby asking people what they think of the National Trust and encouraging them to explore some of their local attractions.
Dressed up in period costume, Leni was in Tudor Square, Tenby, on Monday, talking to shoppers and visitors about what the National Trust has to offer in Pembrokeshire.
Leni, who has spent the past few months travelling all around Wales as part of the 'I Love Wales' campaign, is keen to challenge preconceptions about the Trust.
She said: "There's so much to see and do at National Trust properties, and places like Tudor Merchant's House at Quay Hill in Tenby are just full of interesting tales and steeped in local history. The Trust also offers all kinds of exhilarating outdoor pursuits such as surfing, coasteering and climbing, as well as nature and wildlife activities. The range of activities available is truly incredible."
A recent convert to the National Trust, 25-year-old Leni added: "The National Trust probably doesn't seem like the coolest thing ever from the outside, but when you go there and experience it, it's amazing.
"I'm looking forward to hearing what people in Tenby know about - and think of - the Trust, and I hope that I'll convince them to get out and enjoy some of the things that are on offer on their doorstep."
Leni's visit to Pembrokeshire also included coasteering in St. David's on Wednesday and wildlife activities at Colby Woodland Garden in Amroth yesterday (Thursday).
Highlights from the Pembrokshire tour will be appearing on Leni's online diary, along with snippets from her three-month journey around Wales.
