When it comes to travelling, it can be tempting to stick to the convenience of tourist attractions and chain restaurants.

After all, McDonalds is available in 120 countries around the world and you can't go wrong with a Big Mac and fries.

But if you're willing to go off the beaten track, you're likely to find a whole host of hidden gems that give a far realer impression of your destination.

In fact, one of the UK's best restaurants is so hidden, it warns visitors that Google and Apple maps 'don't really seem to like our location.'

Paternoster Farm, near Pembroke in Wales, was recently named one the 100 best local restaurants by the Good Food Guide.

The awards are decided by nominations from people across the UK, all keen to champion their hometown heroes.

Owned by former lawyer Michelle Evans, it offers a unique dining experience in an old cowshed where guests can expect to slow roast Welsh mountain mutton, locally caught fish and a range of delicious seasonal vegetables on the ever-changing menu.

But good luck trying to get there.

Paternoster Farm can be found as your drive west from Pembroke towards the village of Angle, but it's easy to miss.

For a start, your sat-nav probably won't warn you.

That's because there's no real road leading to the tiny restaurant, just a sign that's so much you need to be eagle-eyed to spot it and a narrow farm track leading off into the fields.

But if Google reviews are anything to go by, it's definitely worth the effort.

One user wrote: "Absolutely delicious food in a small tucked away location."

Another said: "Everything about this experience was incredible… the setting, service and food was some of the best we’ve ever had."

A third gushed: "Absolutely love everything about Paternoster Farm. As it’s a set menu, it’s best to go with an open mind and trust that everything has been carefully and thoughtfully curated - everything just flows so naturally with all the dishes complementing each other perfectly."

And, when Laura Clements of WalesOnline visited, she wrote: "A battered old bright yellow Aga stands in one corner while old kitchen and farm utensils adorn the rustic stone walls. The cavernous roof with the original wooden rafters helps lend some light to the softly-lit space that's dim but not dark.

"In winter, a wood burning stove keeps it all warm and toasty. We're seated at an old kitchen table, smoothed by years of scrubbing, and a set of mismatched chairs. There are cushions for more sensitive bottoms. Nothing matches and yet it's stylish and cosy." What a dream.
