Abermawr Cottage was handpicked by our team to join our portfolio. Here's just a few of the reasons we think you'll love staying in Abermawr Cottage too!
Tucked away in an idyllic setting, this lovingly renovated single storey character home embodies modern rustic style and sets the scene for rest and relaxation.
In March 2018 Abermawr Cottage was listed in The Times as a recommended place to stay with family.
Located on a peaceful leafy hilltop within walking distance of twin beaches Abermawr and Aberbach, this is a characterful cottage (known locally as Pen yr Allt) full of interest and style you can't fail to be charmed by it.
Period features blend seamlessly with modern comforts from the timber floors, Jotul woodburning stove and deep set cottage windows to the exposed stone walls and wooden beams high in what was the crog loft.
A delightful bright and airy open plan kitchen, dining and sitting room invites relaxation - throw open the patio doors and listen to a chorus of bird. Abermawr Cottage is a wildlife haven and great for bird watching.
Better still on warm days move onto the sunny terrace and while away the hours in blissful contentment reading a good book while sipping a favourite tipple and admiring the pretty wild woodland garden.
After busy days on the beach and coastal path, spend lazy evenings sharing locally sourced holiday meals and conversation at the rustic dining table.
The three cosy cottage bedrooms invite rest and relaxation with two bathrooms across the hallway all on one level.
Perfect at anytime of the year, the incredibly peaceful location and bespoke interiors make this a unique and very special holiday hideaway.

Gorgeous place indeed. Lovely setting to relax in and to explore the surrounding area. Communication from Ed was great, including detailed directions. Cottage beautifully decorated and kitted out, spotlessly clean. Cosy indoors with the fire and heating. Lovely outdoor seating area to watch the red kites, gold finches, woodpeckers and more in the trees. Walk to Abermawr beach really lovely, a stunning bit of coastline. Would love to go back to Abermawr Cottage.
Lovely cottage in lovely location. Well presented throughout .

Reply from: Quality Cottages Team
Thank you for your review! We are thrilled to hear that you had such a great time at Abermawr Cottage - it's such a lovely spot for a family break, and the owner has done a fabulous job in ensuring it feels cosy and warm, even in the colder months. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon!
This cottage really is as good as it looks. Its a beautiful conversion. Everything is well appointed and works well, including the WiFi. The dogs only grumble was having to walk up the hill after exerting herself on the beach!
Probably the best holiday cottage weve stayed in. The cottage has been beautifully renovated and is stylish, cosy and practical. We were wanting of nothing and it was the perfect place from which to explore Pembrokeshires north coast. The local beaches at Abermawr and Aberbach are great - it was fantastic to see the seals swimming in the bay! Thank you Ed and QC
If you've ever visited a holiday cottage before, you most likely have seen a guestbook in the property for guests to leave a review for others when they arrive. Each of the following comments was lovingly left by people just like you in the guestbook left at Abermawr Cottage.
We had a wonderful stay at the cottage. Ed has made it comfortable, stylish and interesting while keeping it practical and to live in. Everything in this newly restored property was to a very high standard right down to the fine detail of the hotel quality bedlinen. Everything has been so thoughtfully done and we wanted for nothing during our stay. The walk to the sea through the woods was enchanting (even on a wet January day) and really was the icing on the cake for us and the dogs. The dog room was a real bonus and meant that we could leave them to dry out before they came in to the house after muddy walks and swims in the sea! On our First night we took the short trip to the Farmers arms and within minutes we were chatting with the friendly locals and staff and made to feel very welcome. The surrounding areas was beautiful with lots of rugged coastline, pretty fishing villages and golden bays. My only critique is that the photos don't really do the place justice. We are really looking forward to coming again 10 out of 10 from us! Lela, Al, Moss and Meg x
The place was immaculate, stylish and very comfortable. Fantastic location, loved the fact we could walk to the coastal path and forget about the car for the day. Would highly recommend.
Ed's house is a gem. Its unique interior is an enrichment for people who want to relax and feel good. There is everything you need for lovely holidays. We had a wonderful time hiking the coastal path and relaxing on the beach. We will be back!
We were charmed by this rustic house and its thoughtful interior design. The property is well maintained and has an inviting atmosphere. The facilities were all good and we loved spending evenings in front of the rustic woodburner. The scenic coastline is only a short walk away and we have found plenty of nice pubs! A great find altogether
This is a beautiful holiday home in a fantastic location. It was really well equipped, perfect for our family including everything you need when travelling with a baby and young children. There is lots to do in the local area, with lovely walks from the cottage to the coastal path. The nearest beach is beautiful, an easy walk away, and the approach to it through the National Trust woodlands took us back to New Zealand! We can't wait to visit again.
If you would like more information on the local area, please call us on 01348 837871 to speak to one of our friendly team.
Abermawr & Aberbach Beaches - just 15 minutes walk away
Footpaths through the National Trust woodlands lead you to the sand and shingle beaches of Abermawr and Aberbach, dogs are welcome all year round - this is a walkers paradise.
Woodlands carpeted with bluebells, wood anemones, wild garlic and alive with birdsong in the spring and seals can be spotted on the shoreline in the Autumn.
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.

The Pembrokeshire Coast Path
To make the best of your holiday and the Pembrokeshire coastline take time to enjoy the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path - definitely the jewel of the county.
The dramatic coastal scenery, flower and wildlife are what make Pembrokeshire one of the world's best holiday destinations (National Geographic voted Pembrokeshire the 2nd best coastal destination in the world!). Splendid at all times of year, the explosion of colour with the spring flowers is something to behold!
Coastal 'Shuttle' Buses
Coastal shuttle buses trundle round the lanes during the summer months. This mode of transport is ideal for hassle-free access to the Coastal Path, the beaches and coves. You can join and leave the busses at will - so leave your car behind and enjoy this beautiful part of Pembrokeshire without the worry of your carbon footprint or your fuel bill.
Porthgain Village and harbour
Porthgain was once a prosperous nineteenth century industrial harbour which exported slate from local quarries at Porthgain and Abereiddi. Now the village is popular for water sport enthusiasts - boaters, rowers, fishermen and canoeists - their activities overlooked by relics of the industrial past.
The village can be busy in summer. It is on the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, served by the Strumble Shuttle (the local bus service) and offers the visitor galleries and a gift shop.
Eat out at the popular Sloop Inn and award winning Shed Fish Restaurant.
Whitesands Beach
A short drive will take you to the Blue Flag beach at Whitesands - popular with families and surfers alike. The cafe serves breakfast and evening meals in the summer season or why not enjoy a takeaway and sit on the beach to see the spectacular sunsets.
St Davids
Spend a few hours exploring the thriving ancient village city. Its charming huddle muddle of shops, galleries, bars and restaurant are protectively arranged around magnificent St Davids Cathedral and the atmospheric Bishop's Palace ruins.
Boat Trips and Offshore Islands - Adventures for both the brave and timid
When you have seen the coastline from the coastal path complete the experience by going to sea. The Pembrokeshire coast is Britain's only coastal National Park and is a treasure-trove of birds and flowers, fish and marine mammals.
Take a trip round Ramsey Island. Boats for both the brave and the timid leave from St Justinians and will take you round the Island and out to sea - or to land and spend the day wandering this amazing, rugged Island. Crews complete the experience by giving a wealth of local information - it is the experience of a lifetime!
Fishguard Town and The Last Invasion Tapestry
Fishguard Farmers Market is held in the Fishguard Town Hall every Saturday and a weekly market every Thursday. There are delicious local produce and crafts on offer and the market is well worth a visit.
Upstairs in the Town Hall the gallery contains the remarkable Last Invasion Tapestry. Made in 1997 to commemorate the bicentenary of the 1797 invasion by the French - the last time the British mainland was invaded! This amazing piece of work was created by local needle workers and tells the story in the style of that told by the famous Bayeux Tapestry.
