Any visitor walking through the town centre would have the same depressing impression. Investments and development for business and tourists have all shifted out to the Marina. High streets all over the world are in serious decline due to the lack of trade for business there. Should actually turn the town houses into residential properties, nicely maintained and painted, with only a few shops trading for the locals. Would be quiet and tourist free. 😅 Move all the tourist to the Marina. 😂
Well. Did you look about properly. You missed all the local run shops down the marina. Included restaurants. Seem to pick on all the bad bits. So many more things to have seen. Maybe visit again but with someone that knows the area and can point out things. The police station is now down the docks behind Tesco. While you were over in pembroke dock the millennium falcon was built there.
Most of the "high streets" in Welsh towns seem to be in a similar state. I assume council rates and online shopping being the main purportrators. I would recommend visiting the Marina before making up your mind about Milford though. It is full of some cracking little shops, restaurants and small businesses.
After watching this video it's hit me on how much of a shit state my home county has become. You should visit Fishguard, it's small, very historical, lovely places to eat out and friendly locals.
I’m planning a trip from Fishguard on the boat. I visited Shrewsbury yesterday and I’d go as far as saying one of the best towns I’ve ever visited. I’m not sure if it’s Councils or the Government that’s killed the high street
@@Thejasonthomasshow that's good, Fishguard is quiet but a lovely town. It's most definitely the council who is ruining Pembrokeshire through their greed of money, corruption and power. I've only ever heard good things about Shrewsbury id like to viusut the place myself.
Really disappointed to see you show Milford is such a poor and inaccurate light. Currently the marina is where businesses are thriving and where you completely decided to ignore. From several eateries, including a hotel opened by celtic Manor only recently, local family run shops also. The torch theatre, charity ran which draws people from all around for shows and so on. Anyone hoping to get a sense of what Milford is like please take this video with a pinch of salt. Yes, just like most towns and cities in Wales the high street is struggling but it still provides numerous jobs for local people. P.s the police station relocated to the marina also, not merged with Harfordwest Station.
That Gregs was temporarily closed while they opened up their 2nd location in the shopping area down by Tesco and has now reopened, the police station has moved premises to the Marina, which you chose to completely ignore. You chose to show the crap side of Milford. You can go to any town and make it look like a shithole if you wanted.
I was told it’s closed due to no staff by the shop up the road. The problem these days is you can’t accept other peoples opinions. It would be great if you put all your energy into discussing with the council. You clearly haven’t watched the video in full 😎
I'm not really sure how reading the bio changes you spending 10 minutes slagging milford off. And I did watch the whole video. I just hope the next town you visit gets a more balanced review and perhaps you caneven visit some of the nice places there! @Thejasonthomasshow
In Wales they hate tourists, cars, holiday home owners and business owners. Its why everyone is avoiding it. I love Wales, but I will not visit it any more, I want to visit where I feel welcome.
Greggs ain't shut You missed 4 or 5 cafes on the marina It's not fair to call a town that's regenerating a "shithole" ... there is a positive side to milford ... there's loads to explore ... you had blinkers on while making this vid mate ... the police station has moved not closed ... ect ect
I thought neath was underinvested it just shows how biased towards Cardiff this Welsh assembly is .. the whole of Wales needs direction and investing it's sad to see.. maybe if they weren't so busy looking after themselves and taking bungs of 200k they might give a dam about this country

I am a visitor, I don’t live there and to be honest after the response to locals I wouldn’t visit again
This is my hometown. Born in 67 .. I live in Australia now . Left Wales when I was 7 years old. One day I’ll come home again.🏴🏴
I used to go there in the 80s 90s it was a nice place, full fo life and clean and tidy. Now it's just dead :(

The police station is now down the docks behind Tesco.
While you were over in pembroke dock the millennium falcon was built there.

It’s very sad to see, I thought it was Uk wide but last week I visited Shrewsbury and it was so different.

I lived in Haverfordwest for 10 years was a nice town .. looks like a right dump now
The millennium falcon was built in one of the old Sunderland hangers
Amazing, thank you for that

You clearly didn't watch the video in full, and most certainly didn't read the video's bio.

@@Thejasonthomasshow I watched the full video and you did not film any of Milford waterfront or the Docks...
Boy have I got some stories from Milford Haven
@@mackib430 no comment
Do Pembroke Dock next please mate 😂 Bring a stab proof vest.
I’m looking at it, just waiting on a few things
Great little video of a beautiful town.. Shame to see the town side of thing's starting to die slowly.
Do Newport town centre and surrounding areas 👀
If you be my tour

Not always the case, come to Carmarthenshire
Not true sadly mate
Bahaha no we hate people with shitty attitudes like yours that's all
I wish it wasn't true but you are spot on
I'm not having that once we start talking we won't stop and kind hearted people on the whole
Not the best video of Milford, you've done it no favours
Why have you missed out the marina?
You haven’t watched the video. I visited the marina!
You went to Hakin point around by the dock gates then cut straight into town, completely bypassing the marina.
Did you not see the boats? That’s the marina 😊
Don’t be so disingenuous. Bar a couple of boats at it’s outer extremity your poorly researched attempted hit- job completely bypassed the Marina.
Marina might be regenerated but the town centre is a shithole.
Greggs ain't shut
You missed 4 or 5 cafes on the marina
It's not fair to call a town that's regenerating a "shithole" ... there is a positive side to milford ... there's loads to explore ... you had blinkers on while making this vid mate ... the police station has moved not closed ... ect ect
I never called it that… listen to what the woman who lived there said. If you read the bio in the video it would help 😅
And I also asked for breakfast in the town, not the marina
Well the shutters on greggs were down. Looked closed to me 😂

Vote labour and dickford, you get muppets such as Mr Thomas slagging you off!
