Nestled in the Pembrokeshire countryside, this sweet home will transport your away from everyday life. Surrounded by rolling pastures and organic farmland, it's a truly tranquil place to press pause and relax. 

The rustic wooden exterior gives way to a cosy living space that will instantly make you feel at home On chilly days, you can curl up next to the fireplace with a good movie, or an excellent book for a great night in. The kitchen is perfect for cooking up a delicious meal, made with fresh, local ingredients. And, if the weather allows, you can listen to birdsong as you eat outside in the glorious private garden. 

The coast is only ten minutes away – the dunes at Poppit Sands are a great place to paddle and picnic. Walkers can join the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, for a hike with stunning sea views. And, the charming market town of Cardigan is only twelve minutes away by car, where you can visit independent boutiques and dine on local seafood. 

Cabin Culture

Tucked away is the very best way to describe this neat home in Llandeilo. Accessed through what looks like any other door on the street, it leads through to a hidden mews with outside space. It's here that you'll find your home, complete with its own pebbled courtyard and private ground floor entrance.

Set over two floors, the house has been modernised to create a comfortable, home from home feel. There's a pretty country-style kitchen and an open-plan living space which keeps everything sociable. Upstairs, two cosy bedrooms still show off a little of the building's original structure with wooden beams. Sit outside in the newly renovated courtyard on warm evenings or stroll out into the town to try out some of its excellent eateries. Perfect for exploring the Brecon Beacons, just a five-minute walk from Dinefwr Castle and a quarter of an hour from the station, it's a great spot. And to think passers-by wouldn't even know the home was there.

Tuck & Roll

On the border between England and Wales, this little eco hut sits in the splendidly named hamlet of Burlingjobb. There’s nothing but the cheep and pip of birdsong and the occasional bleat of a lamb here. The curve of the cabin’s roof reflects Hanter Hill opposite, and each cabinet and window frame has been crafted from local cedar and douglas fir. The living room and kitchen has everything you need to unwind in an evening, including a hand-made kitchen and sofa tucked under the gorgeous floating staircase. Heating comes courtesy of infra-red panels, a nod to the environment and, as the cabin is kept cosy, you can select a book from the little library and take things back to analogue. Glass doors lead out to a deck with a fire pit and barbecue. The real highlight is the master bedroom, dappled with botanica and with a picture-frame window looking out over the garden. It’s here you’ll find the longest claw-footed tub we think we’ve ever seen – perfect for a soak after a day hiking up to Hanter Hill or the tumbling cascade of Water Break-Its-Neck waterfall.

Hergest Lee

Situated in a picturesque part of North Wales, this cottage is perfect for a romantic retreat in peaceful surroundings. Sympathetically modernised but with original features showcasing the home's 19th-century origins, you’ll feel relaxation settle over you from the moment you first arrive. With underfloor heating in the open-plan living and dining area, you’ll welcome the warmth seeping through your slippers after a long day exploring the surrounding countryside. For added cosiness, light the fire, settle down on the sofa, uncork a bottle of red, and enjoy quality time with your loved one. 

As daylight creeps through your curtains in the mornings, hop out of bed (just mind the beams), rustle up a spot of breakfast and enjoy a morning coffee in your courtyard as the countryside wakes around you and happy birdsong fills the air. From your home, there are plenty of rural walks to enjoy – take a look at the maps and recommended routes provided in your cottage and you’ll soon be on your way. For a bite to eat, you may want to venture into Llangollen, where a great selection of delicious restaurants serves up local cuisine from their riverside location. 

Happy as a Lark

Sitting in the middle of the tiny Snowdonian village of Dinas Mawddwy, this building was once the locale's Wesleyan chapel, but today it's been respectfully converted into a rather remarkable place to stay.

Plenty of the period features remain, including the original brickwork, pew seats at the dining table and the tall lancet windows that look out to Welsh hillsides, as well as bathing the interior with natural light. However, it's also fair to say that the living quarters have been brought up to the standards expected from 21st-century travellers, particularly in the case of the super-sleek kitchen and the large games room complete with tables for pool and foosball.

Despite this architectural setting, some of the biggest perks lie outside the stone walls. Not only is there a terrace on which to sit out around the fire pit, but guests are also treated to a hot tub, which is naturally the best seat from which to admire the stunning surroundings. 

It's fair to say that those fond of the great outdoors couldn't wish for a better location. Cader Idris is ten miles away if you're in the mood for a challenging hike, while it doesn't take too long to reach the coastline when the weather calls for a day on the beach. Closer to home – much closer in fact – the village has a local gastropub only a minute's walk from the front door.

Mountain Chapel

You can almost hear the mellow jazz playing as you walk around this sumptuous, modern home. Looking like it came straight out of the pages of Architectural Digest, this Newport pad dazzles with designer furnishings and luxurious details. Downstairs, the blue palette creates a warm welcome, with two living rooms inviting you to chill out, read and snuggle by the fire. Gather at the large kitchen  island for chats over a glass of wine while someone else prepares dinner. Or, on balmy evenings, open the bi-folding doors to the rear terrace where a barbecue tempts alfresco feasts. And then there are the swoon-worthy bedrooms upstairs. Whether you’re staying in the blush-coloured boudoir, the green jungle room, or the two trendy twin rooms, you’ll feel like you’re laying in the lap of luxury when you settle in for the night. With the sea and Carningli Mountain both just a ten-minute walk away, this spectacular home is the ideal base for exploring the Pembrokeshire coast in style. 


Major House

Slow down at this Welsh cottage set in the slate mining town of Blaenau Ffestiniog fringing the mighty Snowdonia National Park. Inside, the original period features of this slate-clad home have been carefully restored to create a modern family home boasting comfortable interiors. The welcome hamper stuffed with local goodies is a nice touch, and outside, there's an enclosed terrace to savour morning cuppas. Parking on the road outside the cottage can be tricky, but with a free car park nearby, we don't think it's a dealbreaker. When you're ready for an adventure, Snowdonia National Park is just a short drive away. Or stay local and climb the surrounding Moelwynion Mountains to reach Stiniog –⁠ the views are worth the climb.

Paths to Dawn

This charming cottage for two can be found at the heart of the Pembrokeshire Coastal National Park. Secluded Aberbach beach is just a ten-minute walk away, as is the Pembrokeshire Coastal Footpath. This is a great choice for nature lovers, walkers and cyclists. The home boasts original features including slate flooring, original beams and a wood burner, which keeps things cosy on chilly days. There’s also a pretty flower-filled garden for you to relax in. 

The Woodcutter's Rest

You'll find everything you need for a relaxing coastal retreat in this charming house, be it board games and books or ping-pong and Prime. Every inch is warm and welcoming, with cushy sofas, a crackling wood stove and a contemporary kitchen/diner ideal for rustling up homecooked meals. Upstairs, two sumptuous bedrooms promise a restful night's sleep, but what we love most is the sunlit courtyard. We think it's the perfect spot to lounge with a cup of tea or a refreshing G&T as the day draws to a close. 

Newport is a pretty market town on the north coast of Pembrokeshire, situated at the foot of Carnigli Mountain and the Preseli Hills. There's an array of eateries, including small cafes and old-fashioned pubs, within walking distance, as well as independent shops and galleries. Newport Beach isn't far – about a half-hour stroll along the coastal path – while historic sites like Pentre Ifan, Castell Henllys Iron Age Village and Nevern Castle are less than ten minutes by car.

On Gentle Tides

Nestled into a square in the charming village of Tremadog, just a ten-minute walk from Porthmadog, this Grade II listed building makes for the perfect North Wales getaway. With Snowdonia National Park and its endless quaint towns, beaches, hiking trails, and historical sights on your doorstep, this cottage is a wonderful choice whether you’re seeking relaxation or adventure. 

This home is one that lends itself to any occasion. Rich colours, exposed brick, and traditional touches make the living room cosy and inviting – you’ll love settling into the snug armchairs in the morning, with the light piercing through the windows, while the warming log-burning fire cuts through the early cold. Your kitchen is just as cosy and comforting, but it’s also practical. It’s kitted out with top-notch appliances that make home-cooked meals a breeze, while the dining room invites family and friends to settle in for light-hearted evenings of good food, games, drinks, and conversation. 

French doors lead you out to the charming patio, which is particularly lovely in the warmer months. And while even summer can’t promise warm weather in Wales, the hot tub is sure to warm you up. You’ll love kicking off your walking boots, jumping into the bubbly tub, and sipping on a few wines after a day of exploring Snowdonia National Park. 

Hills of Bell Heather

A tranquil country getaway in Wales, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Every day can be a new adventure of discovering what Pembrokeshire offers. Start by catching some waves on the coast and surfing. If that's not your thing, try sea kayaking – Pembrokeshire's fresh Atlantic seas, incredible coastal scenic views, and astounding variety of wildlife make it a kayaking paddler's paradise. After a day of swimming around, we recommend stopping by a cafe for some tea and Welshcakes.

You'll feel pampered when you return to your cosy home, from a welcoming living room decorated with plush sofas to polished wooden floors and a fireplace to make you feel at ease. The baby blue kitchen is gorgeous, perfect for preparing a hearty meal after a day of seaside adventures. But you have to remember to start your day stepping through the french doors into the south-facing garden with your morning mug of coffee for the brisk air.
