About this cottage:

• Nestling in a small wooded valley in a country lane this cottage has been totally refurbished, decorated and furnished elegantly and stylishly with great attention to detail ('Visit Wales' 5 Star Grade).
• The charming and relaxing sitting room has comfortable furnishings and wood burning stove with a cottage window over looking mature National Trust woodland.
• An efficent galley style kitchen is fully fitted with stylish pale cupboards and granite work tops.
• Adjacent is a path to the sea winding across a field and through National Trust owned woodlands bursting with bird life, carpeted in springtime with primroses,blubells, campion, wood anemones and wild garlic.
• A babbling brook borders the delightful sheltered and secluded cottage garden - truly a haven of peace and tranquillity on the edge of National Trust woodland.

• St Davids 7 miles away has a range of local amenities incluing banks, post office, internet cafe, supermarket, fillling station, chemist, doctor, vet and interesting independent shops.Fishguard is even nearer.
• Last minute short breaks possible. Please phone for availability and price.

• A private lake, approx 3 miles away belongs to the owners of the cottage and fly fishing is available (limited to 2 rods at any one time - equipment not supplied). If you would like to 'go fishing' then please arrange direct with the owners at a cost of £8 per person per day.

• Stroll through the woods to the sand and shingle beach of Abermawr - Isambard Kingdom Brunel once had great plans to turn this into the West Wales terminal for the Great Western Railway and port for the Atlantic trade. The 1845 potato famine stopped the plans. A keen eye can still distinguish some of the preparatory work.

• The small house above the beach at Abermawr was once a telegraph hut. It was from this point that the first telegraph line was laid between Britain and America with the first transmission by Queen Victoria.

• The remains of a long vanished petrified forest can be seen at Abermawr and the pretty cove of Aberbach is good for seal spotting in September.
• Plenty of activities for everyone, fishing, swimming, cycling, walking through woodlands or on the coastal path which winds its way along cliff tops - wonderful views.

• The hilltop village of Mathry nearby has a pub, (good bar food) woodturner’ s workshop and a church which is part of ‘ Saints & Stones’ - a tour of the Pilgrims Ways of Pembrokeshire.

• This is a picturesque cove with the famous 'Sloop Inn', very popular for family meals and 'The Shed', an award winning Bistro. Stone Hall (French cuisine) near Letterston, award winning fish and chip shop ‘ Something’ s Cooking’ and The Harp in Letterson are all within an easy drive of this Wales hideaway.

• This is a quaint waterside village and with a harbour and quayside. It has a small selection of interesting shops, a gallery, a pottery and a choice of places to eat and drink. Do walk out to the headland to enjoy the spectacular coastal scenery. Solva Boat Trips operate MV Swift from the harbour to the north coast of Pembrokeshire. There is an abundance of wildlife to see. You might like to try a spot of fishing or take an evening cruise.

• Britain's smallest city with the magnificent Cathedral nestled at its heart. The village city is full of interesting & individual shops, galleries and crafts as well as a choice of places to eat and drink. Do book a memorable boat trip to the off lying bird islands.

• The Gwaun Valley is an exceptionally beautiful deep wooded valley highly regarded by geologists. Do take a drive to Llanychaer from Fishguard and then travel on up the valley - eventually to Newport
• Drive over the Preseli Hills to Rosebush once intended to be a Spa town and enjoy a meal at the historic and award winning Tafarn Sinc. See the unused railway station and historic tableau built for anticipated visitors to the Spa town.

• This undulating walk is a popular part of the coastal path with good reason the views and wildlife are magnificent.
• Much to enjoy at this hideaway in Wales - a Pembrokeshire holiday cottage close to the sea.
