Just metres from a picturesque harbour, this sweet and cosy cottage makes a delightful holiday retreat for two. Originally built for workers in the local quarry, the cottage has been beautifully updated and tastefully decorated, and retains original exposed ceiling beams. Ideal for a couple exploring a spellbinding part of Pembrokeshire, this charming traditional cottage offers airy and refreshing holiday accommodation for keen walkers, water sports enthusiasts and nature lovers. The cottage sits at the heart of Porthgain, a pretty hamlet ideally situated along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path.

The chic lounge provides a perfect space for relaxation at the end of a fantastic day, with cosy seating and a TV, so you can unwind with a good book or favourite movie. The stylish kitchen/diner is equipped with a useful range of accessories, and is beneath a traditional crog loft gallery. The ground floor also features a wet room. Following a substantial refurbishment in 2018, a new staircase leads up to the characterful mezzanine bedroom in the gallery, with a king-size bed, exposed beams and low sloping ceilings with restricted head height. Outside, a patio to the front of the property has outdoor furniture and makes a pleasant spot for a glass of wine in the evening as you listen to the waves lapping at the shoreline.

Porthgain is a thriving hamlet with a pub, restaurant and art galleries around the harbour, and is a popular spot for kayaking, as well as being a fantastic base for walkers. Local landmarks include the Blue Lagoon of Abereiddy (2 miles), the secluded beach of Traeth Llyfn (1 mile), Strumble Head Lighthouse (13 miles) and the mill at Melin Tregwynt (8 miles). Also within easy reach are the historic city of St Davids (8 miles) and the pretty seaside town of Fishguard (11.5 miles).

Such a lovely little village, and the cottage is perfect. Excellent facilities, it's got everything to make it cosy and comfortable. And there's a path just yards from the cottage leading up to the coast path on the cliffs.

A perfect cottage for two. Much bigger inside than it looks from the road. Very comfortable and well equipped with all you need. Only problem of which we were aware are the beams in the bedroom although ok if you take care. Great position on coastal path and for The Sloop and The Shed!!! A great place for a relaxing week away.

This is a lovely little cottage ideally located for exploring South West Wales and it's superb beaches. The whole cottage is well appointed but the shower/wet room needs a special mention - it's hot, powerful and perfect if you've got a dog in need of hosing down each day before being let into the rest of the cottage as it's accessed from the hallwRead moreay. The fish restaurant/takeaway is excellent and the pub allows dogs inside from Oct - May. I have no hesitation in recommending staying here. Hide
