Neyland

FBM Holidays prides itself on locating holiday cottages in areas which are diverse in their offerings and Neyland is perhaps one of the most intriguing. Nestled on the Northern bank of the Cleddau Estuary, directly opposite Pembroke Dock, Neyland is a haven for leisure sailors, power boating enthusiasts, divers, water sports and fishing buffs alike.

It was in April 1856, when the South Wales Railway, built by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, officially opened at Neyland. Before the railway came, the population was less than 200. By 1861 it was over a thousand. It was hoped that Neyland would become a significant port but that was never really achieved. The railway closed in 1964 and has since become The Brunel Cycle Track making Neyland a great place to stay if you’re a cycling enthusiast looking for a holiday inWales. The Brunel Trail is part of the of the 220 mile Celtic Trail which runs from Chepstow to St Davids, this in turn is part of the much larger Euro Trail which is 5000 miles long!

Westfield Pill, which you will find along the cycle track, is a teeming nature reserve run by the Wildlife Trust forWest Wales. You can find birds such as kingfishers, swans and redshank here as well as otters and four different bat species.

As well as being a top pick for sports and wildlife enthusiasts, Neyland has much to offer for those with a passion for arts and crafts. In Neyland you will find many local artists, poets and writers and it is a short drive to many small boutique galleries.

If Neyland sounds like the holiday haven for you then why not take a look at 3 Gaddarn Reach . This comfortably furnished modern house stands just yards from the Marina with lovely views across the water. Sit on the balcony and enjoy the comings and goings of the different types of boats and yachts or stroll over to the licensed lunchtime restaurant and mingle with the seafarers. Set within the nature reserve, the cottage has great access to the walking and cycling trails in the area. A good base to visit the North and South of the county.
