About this property
2 Sunny Hill is a well-presented cottage situated in the popular coastal village of Porthgain near St Davids, Pembrokeshire.

Move into the lounge and choose something to watch on the Smart TV or use this time to plan out the following day's adventure. Whisk away outside and catch the last of the evening sun or find comfort in the bedrooms upstairs; there’s a double and a 4ft double on offer.Head to the bathroom, choosing between a bath or shower for a refreshing start to the morning. The industrial heritage at Porthgain is breath-taking and is on your doorstep and along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, you can explore Traeth Llyfn beach, a sandy and rocky beach backed by towering cliffs, providing a wonderful spot for swimming, picnicking and rock pooling or continue towards Abereiddy and the Blue Lagoon. Venture into Brtiain's smallest city at St Davids to explore its incredible Cathedral and the Bishops Palace or head east towards Fishguard to learn about the story of Welsh heroine Jemima Nicholas and her exploits against Napoleon's men with her trusted pitchfork! Explore a range of restaurants, pubs and cafés - none more so than Porthgain's very own The Shed Bistro or the Sloop Inn, which are both just a few minutes walk away from your base. All this and more awaits at 2 Sunny Hill, on the beautiful north Pembrokeshire coast.
The city of St Davids is situated on the far south west coast of Wales. Granted city status by Queen Elizabeth II, it is the smallest city in the UK, with its magnificent cathedral dating back to the 12th century and the ruins of the Bishop's Palace, both wonderful buildings to explore. Situated within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, St Davids is a delightful place with an array of unique shops, tea rooms, restaurants and pubs, surrounded by spectacular coastal scenery. Nearby Whitesands Bay is one of the many beautiful beaches in the area, and walkers will delight in the spectacular views from the coastal path which runs around the complete coastline of Pembrokeshire. Local buses will help with your walking plans, so that you can walk several stretches of the path with totally different landscapes and views each day. Dolphin spotting from land or from the many boat trips to local islands are a must, and are also perfect for enjoying the wonderful array of birds in their natural habitat. The whole of Pembrokeshire beckons from this perfect holiday base to explore castles, relax on beautiful sandy beaches and take walks along parts of the complete coastal footpath. There is so much to see and do in this wonderful part of Wales you'll want to revisit again and again.

The cottage is located in a tranquil setting high above Porthgain and affords lovely views of the village and countryside. The provision of a parking space is an added bonus. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the friendly and hospitable owners who live next door.A plate of delicious Welsh cakes and a vase of fresh roses had been left for us on the kitchen table. We found the cottage to be spotlessly clean, airy and well equipped.During our stay we made the most of the cottageâs close proximity to the coastal path which leads to Trefin and Abercastell in one direction and Abereiddi in the other. We have already booked a return visit next year.

The property was clean, spacious, comfortable, well-equipped, and nicely situated for walks along the coastal path or into the village. Our only minor grumble (and others may think differently) was that the polyester duvet cover on the main bed was rather uncomfortable, and meant one of us had difficulty sleeping (though to be fair this was probably the result of other factors too). Weather was a little mixed (as one would expect), but for the most part it was gloriously sunny and warm!

Great views, easy walk to pub and harbour, great for exploring the local area. Please use local bus, well worth it.
