Overview
Property code: OC-88892

Discover the historic city of St Davids with your closest companions by your side – four-pawed pals included, of course! This rural cottage offers an entirely comfortable place to stay for six guests and one canine companion, perfect for plotting long, rewarding routes for walkies around the beautiful Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. Discover dog-friendly beaches where pups can run wild and free with the sand beneath their paws, or stay at home to enjoy privacy in your very own garden space.

This lovely farmhouse has been thoughtfully updated to pair home-from-home decor with dog-friendly functionality. You’ll be pleased to find that the open-plan living space on the ground floor has been fitted with stone-flagged flooring, perfect for when muddy paws come bounding in after a walk in the Welsh elements. Grab a doggy towel to clean off your pup before leaving them to curl up by the warming wood burner effect electric fire. If you’re blessed with excellent weather, of course, you can spend your time relaxing in the generously proportioned garden that’s fully enclosed and well furnished, before heading back inside to find three inviting bedrooms laid out across the ground and first floor.

Whether your dog prefers long walks through countryside settings or a gentle mosey with frequent stop-offs in dog-friendly pubs and cafes, this is an ideal destination for you. Head to St Davids (1.5 miles), Britain’s smallest city and a place with stunning architecture to be taken in. The city is well equipped with warm and cosy eateries that’ll welcome your dog with a bowl of fresh water.

The Cottage was fantastic. Its in a beautiful natural setting with wild horses coming to the gate in the evening, but also within a short walking distance to the lovely town of Saint Davids with its beautiful cathedral. Its very unusual to have both settings so close by. The Cottage is very well appointed and very comfortable.

A very comfortable, clean cottage with a good sized kitchen and plenty of outside space. Pleasant views from the upstairs rooms out across the moor. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gwynfryn and would love to return one day.

We recently stayed at this cottage in St Davids for a long weekend and overall the location and cottage itself were absolutely beautiful. It was peaceful, relaxing, well-presented, and in a fantastic area we genuinely enjoyed the setting and had been having a lovely stay. However, there were a couple of things that unfortunately left us feeling qRead moreuite uncomfortable. The property was advertised as dog friendly, and we brought our two very small, well-behaved dogs (a toy poodle and a Coton de Tular), who stayed indoors with us throughout the stay. On our second day, we received a very abrupt message from the owner stating we had broken the policy of only allowing one dog and demanding an additional 25 payment immediately. We genuinely hadnt realised there was a one-dog limit when booking, so the tone of the message felt unnecessarily direct and accusatory, especially during what was meant to be a relaxing break. What made things more uncomfortable was realising the owner appeared to know about the second dog through exterior cameras around the property. While we understand security cameras can be necessary, it did leave us feeling as though we were being monitored during our stay, which impacted how comfortable and relaxed we felt afterwards. For a stay costing around 600 for the weekend especially when neighbouring cottages were advertised significantly cheaper we had expected a more welcoming and customer-friendly experience when handling something that could easily have been addressed more politely. Its a shame, because the cottage and location really are lovely, but the way this situation was handled unfortunately affected the overall experience for us Hide

The rug in the lounge was slippy, got it up to find sand underneath. Accident waiting to happen. Had to tighten screws in table as it was too wobbly to eat off. Had to buy Brillo pads to clean racks and tins in oven. No anti slip mats in bath or shower. Very slippy. En-suite to ground floor bedroom very small. Caravans have larger sinks!

A gorgeous cottage in a beautiful location. If you want to sip your tea in a meadow garden at the end of an energetic day after jumping waves in one of those wonderous Welsh beaches nearby and see the swallows dance at sunset... this is the place for you!

Beautiful house well furnished but not cluttered. The views are stunning,very quiet with only bird song which we loved. It would have been useful to have a washing basket to care washing in and out of the house.
