Property code: OC-WAV585

This three-bedroom cottage renovated from a former stone farm building retains many original farmhouse features, within easy reach of the beautiful coastline. The small village of Broad Haven has been renowned as a traditional seaside resort since the 1800s. Explore Broad Haven Beach, 5 miles away, where you can hire a surfboard, paddleboard, wetsuit and kayak on the seafront or explore the plethora of rock pools below the cliffs before heading to the north end of the beach to explore the craggy Lions Head. At low tide, you can walk from Broad Haven to Little Haven along the beach past a bay called The Settlands. Meander along the gentle Pembrokeshire Coast Path (11.5 miles) south to St Brides Haven via Little Haven or head north to discover Newgale, past Druidston Haven and Nolton Haven.

The cottage welcomes you straight into the spacious, open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, complete with a high vaulted ceiling, exposed wooden timber frames, and traditional white painted brick walls. The living area comprises a large leather corner sofa and TV/DVD. Partitioned away from the living area by the corner sofa, the dining area boasts characterful wooden benches arcing around a pine table. Nestled partly underneath the staircase, you’ll find a well-equipped contemporary kitchen. Through the cottage, you’re met with a fully tiled family bathroom, as well as one double and one single bedroom, all benefiting from feature exposed ceiling beams. Upstairs to the mezzanine level, you’ll find an open gallery twin bedroom underneath the eaves with feature ebony exposed timber frames.

A small patio to the front of the cottage is the perfect suntrap to enjoy dining alfresco, leading down onto a vast shared lawn featuring a BBQ area and toddlers’ play area. You also have access to a shared laundry room.

We were very impressed with Swallow Cottage in terms of facilities, cleanliness and comfort. Warm, welcoming and we were never without. It was perfect to come back to at the end of a long, tiring wet day! The host welcomed us with a generous hospitality tray with snacks as well as drinks. Hand soap, washing liquid and laundry liquid are all proRead morevided. The tumble dryer is communal and there's a little extra charge when used, but the communal washing line can be used on dry days. The carpark is along the drive as you come in, so it's a short walk to get to the cottages but a pull-alone wagon is available for you to pile your luggage into. Plenty of crockery, cutlery, pots/pans and knives that are actually sharp! There were even plastic bowls etc for the kids. The photos of the children's play area on this website don't do it justice - there's a wendy house, pirate ship, a selection of ride-on cars/tractors - all in an area safely gated away from the carpark. Probably suited up to age 5 or 6, but there's a larger climbing frame in the back garden for older ones. There's literally a shed full of toys/games for visitors to borrow, including beach toys and windbreakers. The owner lives onsite and was friendly and quickly available to help when we had questions. The location was ideal as it was only about 30mins drive to beaches and attractions either north or south Pembs, with a Tesco Extra only 5 mins drive away. We liked Tenby (larger choice of ice cream and fish/chip vendors!) And Heatherton world of activities was an excellent alternative to all the beaches. Haverfordwest itself has a castle and museum but currently closed. Hide

Thank you for providing such a wonderful holiday cottage. A total home from home, and lacked nothing! We absolutely love Pembrokeshire, but this has been the best location ever! So much to explore. We've been here two weeks and been somewhere different every day, and not let the dubious weather stop us. Every beach is magical. We will no doubt be bRead moreack. Thank you for being so friendly and welcoming and especially accepting of children. Fabulous facilities for children - they really have been spoilt! Hide

Ideally placed for trips to Northern and Southern Pembrokeshire. Lovely outdoor space with loads for toddlers and younger children to do and play with. Very quiet and serene. Hosts were very warm and welcoming.
