Enjoy a peaceful couple’s escape at this converted farm cottage. With panoramic sea views and welcoming one four-pawed pal, it’s perfect for walks to the beach and local pub. Neighbouring properties can be booked together for a bigger-group getaway.
One of four former farm cottages, this barn-style holiday home retains many of its original features yet offers a range of modern must-haves, including underfloor heating, an electric car charging point and high-spec sound system. Offering spacious accommodation for two, it impresses the moment you step through the entrance hall, with a striking living area in which stone flooring, whitewashed walls and exposed structural timbers create an atmosphere of calm. A contemporary kitchen takes care of all your self-catering requirements and there’s a separate shared utility room on-site for any laundry. Enjoy home-cooked meals in the dining area – the table seats eight, so there’s plenty of room if you want to invite guests – then stretch out in the lounge where there’s a choice of reclining sofas, a TV/DVD and top-of-the-range stereo system. A WC completes the ground floor. When it’s time to sleep, a sleek spiral staircase leads to a lovely double bedroom with a TV, skylight looking towards the Irish Sea, balcony overlooking the dining area and en-suite bathroom. The property sits within 13 acres and has a seating area offering gorgeous sea views. A lawned area with children’s play equipment is shared by all the cottages here.
Enjoy both the coast and countryside while you’re here – the property is on the outskirts of historic Trefin, a friendly village between Britain’s smallest city St David’s (8 miles), and Fishguard (10 miles). If you love walking, this is the perfect location: there’s a direct footpath to the low-tide sand and shingle of Aberfelin beach, where you can join the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. Gorgeous Porthgain (2 miles) has eateries and art galleries; there’s an equally picturesque cove and village at Abercastle, a mile in the opposite direction.
