- Traeth-llyfn, one of Pembrokeshire's most beautiful beaches, 1 mile north of Abereiddi, can be reached only via the Coastal Path - steep steps lead down to a picturesque, sheltered sandy cove but take care if swimming as there are strong currents and no lifeguards here.
- Also on the Coastal Path but can be reached by a short drive through pretty winding country lanes, this quaint harbour village has fascinating industrial archaeological ruins, the famous Sloop Inn, award winning 'Shed' Bistro.Mackerel fishing trips sail from here during the summer months when there is usually freshly caught lobster and crab for sale too.

Why you love The Fold
What a fantastic holiday home! All the comforts of home plus much more. As an architect and designer I can really appreciate the attention to detail; underfloor heating throughout and sizeable bedrooms and bathrooms, open plan living spaces big expanses of window to magnificent views.
Genevieve Theriault
We have had the most amazing Christmas here. The whole house is so warm and cosy (warmer that at home) but especially in the lounge with the log fire. The Christmas tree is gorgeous, really lovely with soft lighting in the lounge. We went to carols by candlelight and afterwards linked arms as we walked to the nearest pub, through the enchanting streets of St David�s with fairy lights twinkling above us. Thank you from the whole family.
The Forsyths
This has indeed proved to be a very special place. It is undeniably beautifully equipped we wanted for nothing, my ma and my friends all over 80 were able to enjoy the house and the views and several local beaches which were age friendly. Thank you for providing such an amazing place to unwind and relax.
A Williams
What a delicious cottage, a nice mixture of cosy and hi-tech, lovely space, design, furniture and extremely well equipped. The garden, the views and the log fire just put the icing on the cream teas. Do not worry about making our bed. We will be back.
LeVictoire family
We have had a wonderful time here. We have all slept like logs after long days in the fresh Pembrokeshire air. Our walk form the Fold to the Sloop Inn Porthgain was fabulous and took one and a half hours (with youngest aged 7) only minor moaning! We caught 41 crabs at Solva. Walk to the end of the marina there is a super caf� on the right and hours of fun catching crabs.
Millington Family
We have been visiting Pembrokeshire for some 40 years. This is the most comfortable and best equipped house we have rented. Everything is provided,it is very good quality and lacked for nothing. We had a wonderful sunny week which we thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you for such a wonderful holiday home.
The Bucktins
Lovely house filled with light - Beautiful aspect. Beds exceptionally comfortable. Good idea to have 2 fridges and also good idea have ensuite bathrooms.
The Hopkins
A beautiful house and very homely. It was wonderful to see in the New Year with great friends in such a lovely place. A hot tub would be nice particularly after a dip at New Year.
