About this property
Solva 3.3 miles. Perched in the little village of Penycwm, a few miles from Solva, sits this delightful farmhouse, Bay View. Enjoying a wonderful location overlooking the coast, this inviting property is a delightful base for up to four guests, well-placed for accessing Pembrokeshire and its amazing countryside. After a day of coastal walks exploring the stunning Pembrokeshire Coast (with access just 200m from this property), kick off your shoes and head to the lounge for a well-deserved break. Chill out on the sofa, watch TV, read a book, play some board games in front of the fire, or take a glass of fizz upstairs to enjoy the spectacular sunsets over the bay. Conjure up a feast for your family in the contemporary farmhouse kitchen, fitted with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, so you are well-equipped for home-cooking and eating in the dining room. Also, no arguments after dinner as the dishwasher will handle the washing up. As the night rolls in, climb the stairs for a well-earned rest. Snuggle down into the spacious double- or twin-bedded rooms and enjoy listening to the sound of the sea as you drift off to sleep. Start the morning by waking up to fantastic views of the sea from the bedrooms. Choose between a soothing bath or shower to kick off the day, before heading downstairs for a coffee. Enjoy your morning coffee sat outside soaking up the sun or if you fancy dine alfresco on the picnic bench outside the back door. The seaside awaits just a short walk away; you can explore the picturesque Cwm Mawr Beach with its tidal rock pools. At low tide you can walk to the long sandy expanse of Newgale Beach perfect for swimming and sunbathing, or if you’re feeling more adventurous kayaking and paddle boarding. Newgale Beach is a popular surfing destination with a nearby pub and hire shop for all your water adventures. Hop in the car and within a short drive you’ll be at the harbour village of Solva, where you can pick up the essentials at the local shop or treat yourselves to a tasty pub lunch. You can explore the galleries and shops nearby or visit the café on the Quay and watch the boats bobbing in the Harbour or if you fancy, a spot of crabbing at high tide. This property with its great location gives you the opportunity to explore the surrounding areas including St Davids and its remarkable cathedral, as well as a wealth of gorgeous beaches and clifftop walks. And for those with an adventurous spirit look no further than Pembrokeshire for all your water activities. An action-packed Pembrokeshire break awaits you at Bay View Farmhouse – a property for all seasons.
A beautiful village situated around a sheltered tidal harbour, perfect for launching boats and enjoying scenic strolls along the coast at any time of year. Even though it's only a small village, this one has a superb woollen mill shop, a couple of gift shops, a couple of art galleries, and a couple of friendly pubs serving tasty food. Watching the tide come and go and the boats bob up and down in the harbour on a lazy day is pure bliss. If you're in the area, stop by the woollen mill itself to relax by the waterwheel, explore the weaving shed, or grab a bite to eat at the cafe. A short drive will take you to St. Davids, the tiniest city in Britain and home to the magnificent St. Davids Cathedral. Here, you can stroll the quaint streets in search of more one-of-a-kind souvenirs, fuel up with a hearty meal or afternoon tea, or simply relax in the cathedral's tranquil grounds. Whitesands Bay is home to an incredible beach, perfect for lounging or even catching some waves. Go on bike rides through the countryside or out on the water to see dolphins and other marine life. A perfect place to stay on your vacation in Wales.

We met the owner who called in to warn us about some noise (there wasn't any) and it was lovely to meet her and learn a bit about the history of the house. A very comfortable stay. Dawn Torgersen
