This Grade II-listed stone cottage packs a characterful punch. Some may find the interiors a tad too traditional, but the lounge is utterly cosy – especially with a fire roaring in the wood burner – and the roll-top bath is the perfect end to a busy day. Outside, a courtyard garden is a sweet bonus, although it's not the prettiest patio in our collection. Location-wise, St Davids may be Britain's smallest city, but it's full of adventures. Take your pick between hikes along the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path (a ten-minute walk away), beach days at Whitesands (reachable in two miles), and tours of the famous 12th-century cathedral (mere steps from the front door).

Blessed with beautiful beach views, this charming seaside cottage lets you watch the waves from bay window seats. Although this Grade II listed building has recently had a top-to-toe renovation, it still treasures all the traditional details. 

Downstairs, a smart seating area sits under skylights and looks out onto your small patio – why not read a book here? In every room of the house, you'll love the timeless interior design – think wood beams and a clawfoot bathtub.  

Climb the stripped-back staircase, there you will find an open-plan living space. You can bake Welsh cakes in the kitchen, then swap stories with your loved ones on these sand-coloured sofas. Across the road, the pebbled seashore is your real playground. Dale Beach is a wide and sheltered bay, making it ideal for several watersports.

In the village, you'll find an award-winning pub and great places to eat. After bird watching on the Gann, come back and warm your hands with a real fire. Both bedrooms are equally as cosy, promising you a good night's sleep after long walks on the Pembrokeshire coast.

If can tear yourself away, enjoy easy access to the unspoiled beaches of the Pembrokeshire coast. Dale, Marloes and Newgale beaches are all within easy reach by car. If you'd rather actively explore, we highly recommend walking a section of the jaw-dropping Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, or heading into the mysterious Preseli Mountains dotted with prehistoric monuments. Finally, reward yourself with a soak in the full-size hot tub tucked away on the private veranda.

Access to Beach

This Grade II listed seaside cottage is the perfect base for relaxing breaks on the Pembrokeshire coast. It was lovingly restored and modernised in 2021, so while it still retains its historic charm – and traditional features and layout – it’s now a wonderfully comfortable and cosy cottage. 

The cottage sits just across the road from the sea, so you can be paddling in the shallows of Dale’s beach in no time. From the water sports centre in Dale, you can try your hand at any number of activities, including sailing, surfing, and kayaking. We’d be tempted to give paddleboarding a go, followed by a hearty meal in the award-winning village pub. Of course, you might choose to fish for your supper instead?

Nature-lovers will have plenty to keep them entertained too, with a whole host of coastal walks to enjoy. You might partake in a spot of bird watching on the Gann, or take the ferry to Skomer Island to see the puffins in summer. 

However you spend your days, you’ll be glad to have such a pleasant home from home to return to. When the weather is fine you can tuck into picnic lunches on the front lawn, and admire the sea view as you dine. When it’s a little colder, nothing beats curling up in the living room to play board games together.

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.

We dare you to find a home with a more spectacular view of Carmarthenshire's coastline than this. Perched on a hill overlooking Pendine's seven miles of golden sands below, the panoramic sea views reach far and wide, from the Carmarthen Bay to the Gower peninsula.

Every inch of this palatial, luminous home is designed with those vistas in mind. Curl up in the sumptuous king-size bed of the main suite with a cuppa and lose yourself to the horizon. Pad out across the porcelain tiled veranda and slip into the hot tub. Bring your ensemble together on the top floor for lazy breakfasts in the vast living area, awash in deep blues and restful greys. Or come together for sunset cocktails and barbecues on the expansive terrace – the outdoor mood lighting will help set the ambience. Wherever you choose to be, those magnificent seascapes will be right there.

If you can bear to part your gaze, if just for a while,  the silky sands and charming promenade of Pendine are just a nine-minute drive away. A traditional, understated seaside resort – it's all chalets, fish'n'chips, and windbreaks – just as it should be. But be sure to make it home for dusk - the sunset views from the hot tub are out-of-this-world.

A cabin in the woods reimagined, this home belongs in the centrefold of a magazine. Traditional wooden panelling adds a rustic feel to this home, but it's nicely contrasted with a stylish monochrome palette and huge floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook a colourful sensory garden and pond. It's easy to spend an afternoon sitting on the south-facing deck, enjoying the peace of the Welsh countryside and keeping an eye out for the swallows, swifts, ducks and frogs living their lives on the water — even an otter has been spotted in the grounds by previous guests. After a stroll among the greenery, unwind with a glass of wine in front of the log burner or head up to the snug in the mezzanine with a well-thumbed book. Venturing out, two sandy beaches, Norman castles and a few quaint cafes await in the village of Llansteffan, which can be reached in eight minutes by car. Also close by is Green Castle Woods – about a five-minute drive – which is perfect for afternoon strolls through ancient woodlands. Or, ten minutes in the opposite direction lies Carmarthen, believed to be the oldest town in Wales – head there for places to eat, drink and shop aplenty.

Although this Pembrokeshire apartment underwent a recent renovation, one thing that hasn't changed is just how peaceful the view from the balcony is, with the unmistakably blue waters of Carmarthen Bay peering through the trees. It may not be the biggest outdoor space in the world, but this seaward orientation makes up for it.

Inside, the glass doors in the main living area are especially generous when it comes to natural light and this dances pleasingly off the wooden floors and white walls. When it comes to the design, it's a pretty simple affair with only a few pieces of coastal artwork nodding to the location, but it's all been executed pretty well, particularly the sleek kitchen and bathroom.

When it comes to seeing a little more of the local area, the centre of Saundersfoot and its beach is all of five mintues' walk from the front door. The town of Tenby is also only ten minutes' drive down the coastline and offers visitors a castle and a selection of galleries to visit.

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.

Only a short distance from the beautiful Pembrokeshire Coast, this charming cottage is the ideal destination for anyone looking to try windsurfing at Broad Haven, diving at Little Haven, or surfing in Newgales. But for those of us who feel a little more at ease on dry land, well, you can head to the Mayfield Golf Centre not even ten minutes away by car, or see the exquisite vistas of the area by walking along the coastal paths.

Enjoy a spot of shopping in Haverfordwest – a lovely twenty-five minute walk, or five minutes by car if you’re in a hurry – and sit down to enjoy lunch at one of the local pubs. There’s also a town museum if you’re interested in learning of the county's roots. 

After a long day on your feet you can retreat to this little stone cottage where you’ll be met by a neutral colour palette that benefits from the skylights in the vaulted ceiling. Some of the original features, especially visible in the facade, remain from its days as a traditional stone barn. Expect exposed brick and beam, modernised by the sleek kitchenette and cushy furnishishings. 

Drag out the board games for a night or friendly competition, or select one of the books in the little library to enjoy curled up on the sofa. The fireplace is a brilliant feature for cooler evenings and if you want to really elevate the cosiness, we encourage a big cup of cocoa. 

For a treat, prepare your own afternoon tea to take out into the garden. Sit down at the bistro table, admiring the roses and abundance of foliage as you sip tea and enjoy a Welsh cake or cucumber sandwich.

Tucked away in a secluded valley, this cottage offers an escape from it all. Sure, its traditional style may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s well-equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. With four-legged friends welcome, this is a holiday your dogs will want to join you on with walks aplenty right from the door – and if you fancy picking up the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, it’s a ten-minute stroll away. Nearby Newport beach is perfect for a coastal day before returning home to enjoy the sunset and sea views from the terrace.

If you're seeking a tranquil and indulgent stay by the sea, look no further than this splendid home on the Pembrokeshire Coast. Perched above the dunes overlooking Newport Bay, this home boasts a secluded location with breathtaking views to boot. Here, you're a seven-minute stroll from the dog-friendly beach of Newport Sands, while the eighteen-hole Newport Links Golf Course is practically on your doorstep – three minutes away on foot, to be exact.

With its generous living spaces and chic design aesthetic, this home beckons you to relax in the splendour of your surroundings. We love the majestic wood-burning stove, roosted in the glass-walled sitting room. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms are dressed to the nines with Egyptian cotton linen and locally sourced Melin Tregwyn wool, while offering scenic snapshots of the coast. After a restful night's slumber, we can't think of a better way to start the day than with a generous helping of crisp, seaside air. Spend mornings roosted on the balcony, cradling a cup of coffee and admiring panoramic views of the bay, before slipping out for a bracing walk on the beach.

After a busy day exploring the coast, gather around the large dining table for a delicious feast, prepared in the fully-equipped kitchen or, if you wish, by a private chef. In the summertime, enjoy barbecued cookouts on the outdoor dining deck and huddle around the fire pit to roast marshmallows at sunset.

Live like a lord or lady of the manor in this fine Georgian mansion house. Whether you're taking along your friends, family, or colleagues, you'll settle into this luxurious setting in no time at all. Access to the home is via a private lane near Princes Gate, meaning that it's a secluded spot where you can truly relax. Inside, the home is the perfect blend of old and new, where traditional touches meet modern convenience – enjoy underfloor heating and state-of-the-art kitchen appliances alongside gorgeous period details. Outside, you'll find a mixture of formal gardens and private woodland to explore. There are plenty of adventures to be had here, but you simply must explore some of the gorgeous Welsh countryside too. Pembrokeshire National Park is right on your doorstep, where you can hike, cycle, or even pony trek through the stunning landscapes. The pretty market town of Narberth is a five-minute drive away, and Telpyn Beach is just over ten minutes away by car. And, when you return home after a busy day, the outdoor hot tub is waiting for you – it's the ideal way to relax under the stars.

Perched on the banks of the Teifi estuary, this renovated former sea captain's villa in southwest Wales treats guests to some spectacular waterside views. On sunny days, these can be enjoyed on the large terrace, whether that's reclining in one of the loungers, lying in the hammock or sitting around the alfresco dining area, waiting for dinner to be served off the barbecue or out of the pizza oven. However, the sparkly panorama can just as easily be appreciated from the huge windows in the open-concept kitchen-dining area or from the bedrooms. When you can prise your eyes away from the beautiful scene outside, you'll find a modern interior that integrates rustic aspects, such as exposed brickwork and a wood-burning fireplace, seamlessly. It's the sort of place you'll look forward to returning on the return leg of a long walk. If you're in need of inspiration, all you have to do is follow the Teifi — half an hour's walk west will get you to Poppit Sands Beach, while the same amount of time in the opposite direction will take you to the town of Cardigan.

Sherwood House

Found just outside the town of Narbeth in beautiful Pembrokeshire, this home is generous both when it comes to size and the number of distractions that guests will have at their disposal.

Many of these amenities lie out on the grounds, which include everything from a full-size rugby pitch with posts and a zipline to a lake and orchard perfect for peaceful strolls. Add an eight-person hot tub into the mix and you've got a property in which boredom is unlikely to rear its head.

There's plenty to like inside as well. As well as three separate living areas — including one on the first floor with pretty views of rolling countryside — we're also particularly fond of the huge kitchen fitted with sleek surfaces and smart wooden finishes.

When you want to see a little more of the local area, it's hard to know where to start. If the sun makes an appearance, why not head for Coppet Hall Beach only fifteen minutes' drive away or one of the huge number of coves and sandy spots that lie along the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path? Alternatively, the charming town of Tenby lies twenty minutes away in the car.


The First Day of Spring

If you dream of waking up to uninterrupted views of the sea every day, then this home in the coastal village of Saundersfoot is for you. Three of the bedrooms offer fabulous vistas of the water below, meaning you can wake up to the sound of the waves and the sun on your face. The living room has huge floor-to-ceiling windows framing the watery views and, with two terraces to choose from, you can watch the fishing boats bobbing in the harbour for hours. The cheerful dining room is ideal for hosting a family dinner, or you might rather grill up an alfresco feast on the barbecue to enjoy outside with the breeze in your hair. The golden sands of Saundersfoot Beach are less than a ten-minute walk away, and the charming harbour is even closer. And, with all of Pembrokeshire Coast National Park on your doorstep, you'll love exploring the dramatic landscapes on foot or by bike. 

Seagull's Nest

Set in Gwbert, this home has uninterrupted views over Cardigan Bay, positioned at the mouth of the River Teifi. It's an area that's famous for its sparkling blue seas and dolphin-watching – you may even spot a pod from the kitchen window. Inside, it's open, bright and tastefully decorated with a mix of antique and quirky furnishings. Two of the bedrooms have dreamy sea views, and there's a magazine-worthy glass-fronted porch off the living room where you can sit with a cup of coffee and watch the morning settle over the ocean, following the line of the front garden’s picturesque water feature all the way out to the sea. For active travellers, the nearby activities are endless – you'll find golf courses, stunning beaches within walking distance, shore fishing, pony trekking and a host of cycling paths. The Ceredigion section of the All Wales Coastal Path can be joined with just a five-minute walk from home, and the area is home to a choice of local boat tour operators, should you fancy a closer look at the bay’s famous dolphins.  

Swim Or Dance

Welcome to Luxury Haven, a stunning barn conversion on the outskirts of the quaint town of Narberth. This charming property exudes elegance and attention to detail in every corner.

The village of Tresaith on the Ceredigion coastline is relatively humble, but you can find some truly spectacular homes here – this three-storey gem is among them.

It's definitely an address that has been constructed with the surrounding scenery in mind, with sea views to be admired from the balconies and out through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Even to the rear of the house that isn't so blessed with coastal vistas, there's a peaceful terrace surrounded by flower beds and it's more than possible to enjoy alfresco feasts in this space, thanks to the dining table, pizza oven and barbecue.

Should the weather ever be a little uninspiring, there's plenty to keep guests entertained inside. In the games room alone, you'll find tables for pool and table tennis, as well as a darts board and piano. Once you've exhausted these, the cinema room complete with leather seats and surround sound is the ideal place to watch a movie or some live sports. It's just as easy to escape to the Jacuzzi bathtub and treat yourself to an unrushed soak.

You'll eventually want to head to the seaside at some point and Tresaith Beach is less than ten minutes' away on foot. It's easy to arrange watersport activities here and – if you're lucky – spot dolphins. There's also a waterfall at the far end of the sand, as well.

Looking Good

Nestled into the cliffs of Llangrannog with mesmerising sea views, this is the kind of home that sits in perfect harmony with its environment. 

From the grassy rooftop garden to the rustic stone and minimalist design, every detail reflects and celebrates the natural beauty of the surroundings. And with a private hot tub overlooking the glistening shoreline, you’ll find yourself transported to an elevated state of bliss. 

Sitting just above the Coastal Path, this is the perfect opportunity to travel into the wilderness of Wales whilst also experiencing the close proximity to the picturesque harbour of New Quay, as well as the charming town Aberaeron (both just a short drive away). 

Days can be spent hiking, surfing, looking out for dolphins and simply marvelling at the views from Llangrannog beach or a charming pub. Wherever the fresh air takes you, this home provides the perfect sanctuary for sunset drinks, candlelit meals and cosy evenings by the fire. 

Source of Serenity 

Llansteffan is an idyllic coastal village nestled on the banks of the River Tywi estuary in Carmarthenshire, offering a charming escape for nature lovers and beach enthusiasts. You'll be captivated by the light and airy atmosphere of this delightful holiday retreat, elegantly decorated with a contemporary touch. Unwind in the lounge, warmed by a cozy wood burner and mesmerized by serene estuary views. The dining area beckons for relaxed conversations as you plan your day's adventures. The well-equipped kitchen caters to your culinary desires. The master bedroom with en-suite affords ultimate relaxation, while three more bedrooms ensure ample space for guests. Outside, a decked area invites you to savor breathtaking sunsets over the estuary, accompanied by a glass of wine or a beachside barbecue. With parking for four cars and pet-friendly arrangements, this coastal haven ensures a memorable stay for all.

Estuary Bliss

Swap the big smoke for the great outdoors at this converted barn, tucked away at the foot of Angel Mountain, close to the Pembrokeshire coast. 

Nestled amidst the patchwork hills of the Welsh countryside, you could feel a million miles from civilisation here –⁠ which is just how we like things. But when it’s time for a change of pace, the charming seaside town of Newport (six-minute drive) is an afternoon well spent – as is the mighty Pembrokeshire Coast National Park with its vast sandy beaches and secluded coves (eleven-minute drive).
 
Back at this quirky bolthole retreat, exposed stonework shows the bones of this barn's past, while vintage furniture and objects de art add layers of interest and heaps of style. A home for all seasons, on long summer nights, slide the bifold doors right back and stoke up the barbecue – the firepit will help keep the night flowing as a carpet of stars appear overhead. In winter months, hunker down inside and soak up the countryside vistas through the floor-to-ceiling picture windows - that snuggle seat by the wood-burning stove has got your name on it.

Lift Access

As you look around this home, it becomes clear very quickly that it has been designed to make the most of the beautiful coastal scenery in which this part of south Wales really specialises. In the living room, huge bi-fold doors open up to Juliet balconies that gaze out over Tenby's South Beach, while in the bedrooms there are further balconies, only this time with a view of Caldy Island. With such glorious panoramas, you could be forgiven for not really paying the interior much attention, but when you do get around to it, you'll find a modern space that's simple but effective — we're fans of the minimalist white kitchen, in particular. As you can probably imagine when looking out the window, the beach isn't too far away — just five minutes' walk, in fact. Tenby Castle can be reached in under a quarter of an hour on foot, too.

Welsh Cake

Balcony / Patio

Wild and wonderful, this honey-coloured homestead on the edge of St Dogmaels is as charming as it looks. Inside, you'll find rustic living spaces that exude warmth – it'll be hard to resist a Netflix movie night curled up in front of the roaring log burner – and we appreciate how interior bi-fold doors give you full control over the size of the living space. Home chefs can let loose in the kitchen, rustling up freshly-baked cakes and mouthwatering Sunday roasts to share around the eight-seater table. Upstairs, a soak in the lavish free-standing bathtub before bedtime is just the ticket after a long day.

Speaking of, we can't help but swoon over the verdant, lush landscape that awaits you outside. Listen to the babbling stream as you share a pitcher of Pimm's or gather around the fire pit on hazy summer evenings. It's not just grown-ups who will adore this home. Kids can while away afternoons in the loft playroom, play pretend in the treehouse, follow the fairy trail and bounce on the trampoline. With garden games and rope swings, it's perfect for little ones and the young at heart.

The village is just a short walk away, home to an award-winning farmer's market, historic abbey and the River Teifi. Just across the bridge – about a twenty-minute walk – are pubs, eateries and shops in Cardigan, while Poppit Sands, a picturesque dog-friendly beach, is forty-five minutes on foot, seven by car.

Where Fairies Dance

Set on the banks of the Nevern estuary, this spacious family home – with large private gardens and a seating terrace – offers the perfect Welsh break. Wake up to amazing views across the estuary. Let your four-legged friends roam free in the spacious garden and the children let off steam on sunny days, while you enjoy reading a good book on the comfy outdoor seating under the shade of the home’s awning. 

Just outside the home’s gate, you will find access straight to the estuary which leads to Newport Bay and Parrog – reachable in just twenty-three minutes on foot, which makes it ideal for a leisurely walk together. Then return home in the late afternoon for Welsh cake warmed in the Aga. 

In the evenings, cosy up on the big squashy sofa in front of the wood burner with your dog curled up at your feet as you watch your family's favourite film. Or, on warmer days head out to the patio with a gin and tonic and let the children tire themselves out for bedtime as they run around the lawns.

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

Single-Level Home

Tucked away in the pretty village of Ludchurch and surrounded by glorious Pembrokeshire countryside, this home is a haven of tranquillity. As a former barn, this home retains much of its rustic charm with exposed beams and high vaulted ceilings, but don’t worry, there are no creaky areas or draughty spaces here. The rooms have all the modern comforts you could ask for – a cosy log burner, soft furnishings, WiFi and underfloor heating throughout. The open-plan living area is wonderfully spacious, uncluttered and awash with natural light. If the weather is good you’ll want to push open the patio doors and breathe in the countryside views. The garden has a serene summerhouse, but the best place to absorb the peaceful surroundings is from the heated hot tub. Drift away in the warm bubbles while contemplating the scenery of the rolling countryside. It’s a scenic 40-minute walk into the village of Wiseman’s Bridge, or fetch your towel, bathing suit and other paraphernalia to make the ten-minute drive down to the glorious Pembrokeshire coastline and its award-winning beaches. 

Sweet Valley Barn

This smart home in the heart of popular Saundersfoot is guaranteed to make your trip a roaring success. Set over four floors, it offers plenty of space for a large group to make themselves at home and enjoy all that this seaside village has to offer. With its subdued colour scheme and comfy furnishings, it's the perfect place to retreat and spend some quality time together. The private terrace is a brilliant spot to gather and enjoy the fresh sea air – there's even a barbeque for grilling up some tasty treats. One of the bedrooms even has a Juliet balcony with gorgeous views out towards Monkstone point, perfect for sipping your morning coffee. The beach is a mere four-minute walk away from your front door, where you can frolic on the sand and paddle in the waves. Watch the boats bobbing in the harbour, and don't forget to savour some of the locally caught seafood. The town of Tenby is just two miles away, and if you've brought a car then we highly recommend exploring the Pembrokeshire Coast – the landscapes are simply stunning. 

Silver Breeze

Sitting just a short walk from the heart of Saundersfoot, this handsome apartment is just the ticket for a family or group of friends looking to make the most out of this corner of the beautiful Pembrokeshire.

Dressed in calming neutral shades and comfy, contemporary decor, you’ll have no trouble making yourself at home here, whether that’s snuggled up on the sofa with a blanket and a mug of tea or gathered around the dining table for a homecooked feast when you’re not out sampling the local seafood eateries. 

The two bedrooms are just as inviting with their brightly coloured accents and tiled bathrooms – one of which is an en-suite – while the building’s communal terrace beckons sunny morning coffees and celebratory sundowners when the weather is balmy.

Outside of your home, Saundersfoot Beach is easily reachable on foot, as are the harbour and Saundersfoot Lighthouse, not to mention a plethora of restaurants and shops.

Utter relaxation awaits at this gorgeous home in the heart of Carmarthenshire, an area affectionately referred to as the “Garden of Wales” Nestled in the heart of Llansteffan, this is the perfect setting for a relaxing retreat to the Welsh countryside, boasting gorgeous living spaces and a quiet patio, ideal for unwinding after long walks along the River Towy. We could easily spend all day out here – sipping a cup of tea and making the most of the sunshine – but we wouldn’t blame you if you wanted to head inside and mellow out in the cosy sitting room. Treat your friends to a tune on the grand piano or channel Dylan Thomas – once a guest here– and while away the afternoon reading by the fire. 

Fans of the outdoors will love having a base here where you’re less than a mile from Llansteffan Beach. Go for a walk along the smooth sands or quench your thirst with a refreshing drink from the beachside tearoom. And if you fancy venturing further afield, why not hop in the car and head to Carmarthen, where you’ll find a whole a host of attractions to explore with your fellow guests?

Moonshine & Salt Fry

Satellite / Cable TV

Gather up all your favourite people for a seaside holiday at this stylish cottage, set right in the heart of Saundersfoot village and just a seven-minute walk from the beach. 

This is a home to enjoy whatever the British weather throws at you. In the winter months, luxuriate in the vast sunroom beneath a gabled roof and soak up the panoramic views reaching the sea. Come summertime, slide open the bi-fold doors and let the light lure you out onto the deck. Split your time between the hot tub and loungers as the kids run off some energy on the lawns.

When you work up an appetite, prepare a feast in the modern kitchen, fire up the gas barbecue, or take a seven-minute stroll down to the waterfront for some fresh seafood. With its shimmering Blue Flag beach and quaint harbour delivering oodles of seaside charm, it’s guaranteed to be an afternoon well-spent. 

For a change of scene, Tenby is just a nine-minute drive away, or hop on a boat trip to explore the wild Pembrokeshire coastline. For those who feel up to a hefty walk, the 186-mile Pembrokeshire Coast Path is right on your doorstep. 

Lazy Hazy Days

Discover the beauty of the South Pembrokeshire from this stunning beachfront base, situated in the small seaside resort of Saundersfoot. More compact than nearby Tenby, which lies a few miles to the south, the place has a unique charm all of its own.

South-facing sea views grab all the headlines here, with large windows in the open layout living area/kitchen, plus direct access to a private balcony ensuring you can make the most of the unparalleled location. 

The interior decor is no less eye-catching, with mid-century style leather seating, a wood burner set into the wall, plus a subtle maritime theme, with hints of blue and wood cladding that reminded us of the side of a beach hut.

Sharing the open-plan space is the kitchen, with the sink set up so you can look out at the waves as you wash up the bits and pieces that won't fit in the dishwasher. Rather sensibly, the hob and oven face the opposite way, to minimise distractions. With dinner ready, it's down to you to plate up and grab a seat at the rustic yet elegant dining table.

Elsewhere, the two bedrooms keep up with the nods to the nautical setting, with striped wallpaper and sea-themed artwork adorning the walls.

In addition to the expansive beach, the old tramway route that connected the coal port to mines at Stepsaside survives as a spectacular section of the picturesque Pembrokeshire Coast Path. It's 186 miles long in total, but we'd recommend dipping in and out to walk along particularly panoramic parts.

Those who prefer their outdoor activities more action-packed will find some of Pembrokeshire's finest surf spots within a twenty-mile drive. A particular standout is Freshwater West, which is hailed by many as the most reliable break in the land of dragons and daffodils.



Stroll Along the Strand

With its rugged cliffs, miles of sandy beaches and hidden coves, North Pembrokeshire is a natural haven. And this cosy barn makes the perfect setting to discover the timeless beauty of the Welsh countryside.

Set on an old organic farm and surrounded by trees, the barn has been thoughtfully renovated to provide a sanctuary in the heart of nature. It’s the kind of space where you can embrace a more simple existence – one that is rich in warmth and comfort. 

From preparing breakfast in the kitchen to reading on the mezzanine, it’s easy to slow down and savour the elements that make this home special. 

Outside, you can wander through miles of beautiful countryside towards the beach or make your way into the village of Saint Dogmaels – only a twenty–minute walk. Here you’ll find a wonderful village shop, an award–winning farmers market (held weekly), ancient abbey grounds and a couple of great pubs. 

And when your bags are full of fresh, local produce you’ll love coming home for a cosy evening by the fire. 

A Wilder Place 

Overlooking the quaint harbour, this waterfront apartment puts you at the heart of some of Tenby's favourite spots. Stroll to the sleepy seaside town's restaurants and boutique shops, or walk to Tenby North Beach in under ten minutes. The interiors are a little dated, but the home is well-kept, cosy and equipped with most of what you'll need for a comfortable stay – though you'll have to bring your own towels. With views and a central location, this home does well for itself, and the compact balcony is a nice bonus, especially for a nightcap.

Super luxurious yet charmingly old-school, this manor sits in the charming town of Penally, near Tenby. So as well as having cosy country pubs and the Pembrokeshire Coast Path on your doorstep, it’s just a six-minute drive into the centre of Tenby to explore the castle and beach. The home itself stands bay-windowed and bold, bright white against the blue sky. Built around 1840, it’s a Grade II listed building with two acres of stepped, walled garden to explore. Terraces with panoramic sea views, a swimming pool with adjoining hot tub, flowerbeds bursting with bloom and secret grottos fill the grounds. When dinner calls, there are plenty of places to dine – the sunny orangery that opens out onto the terrace, the sunny cubby hole in the kitchen or in the long, formal dining room. Chefs of the group can cook in the family kitchen, or leave it to a professional and make use of the catering kitchen in the basement. Down here you’ll also find the private bar and games room, like your own personal pub. Bedrooms come in all shapes and sizes to fit couples and kids, and our favourite has to be the master with its hand-carved four-poster bed and view of the sea from the bay window.
