Set close to the Pembrokeshire Coast Path and surrounded by verdant coastal beauty, this incredible holiday home invites pet-friendly packs to explore South Wales. Set in a remote location with a large, lawned garden perfect for children and their canine companions to play in, this lovely property offers the ideal escape. Stay with up to seven guests and one four-pawed pal and enjoy cosy nights in front of the wood burner with feet (and paws!) up, perhaps after a delicious dinner made with locally sourced goodies.

Hear the tip-tap of paws as they head through the hallway and into the generous open-plan living space. The lounge, kitchen, and dining area create a perfect spot for slow mornings and quiet evenings in. Your doggo will love having the whole family together in one space, no doubt curling up by the wood burner to snooze while everyone bustles around. Across the hallway, tuck the little ones into bed in the kid’s room, which features a bunk bed and single bed. Also on this floor, you’ll find a double bedroom and a stylish family bathroom. Upstairs, the attic-style master bedroom boasts a king-size bed and en-suite shower room. Completing the property is the large, lawned garden with a furnished patio area and plenty of room for your pet to stretch their legs. Private parking is available for two cars.

The Pembrokeshire Coast National Park offers endless opportunities for daily walkies, so grab Fido’s leash, a handful of puppy treats and a picnic, and set off exploring. Head to Trefin (2 miles), a local village with charming pubs, or take a walk to Abercastle (2 miles) with its picturesque cove and sand-and-shingle beach. Leave no stick unfetched along the coastal path, heading to Porthgain (3.5 miles) to admire its pretty harbour.

Great area if you are seeking somewhere quiet. Neighbour is lovely and friendly. House is very damp otherwise it could be a lovely home to stay in.

Great location and views, well equipped and a place to get away from it all. In our view let down by needing a bit of attention in maintenance and presentation. Loved the walks from the door and ease of travel around this part of Pembrokeshire, nice sized garden and dog friendly. Enjoyed our stay.
