Lovely little conversion and immaculate thoughout . Spotlessly clean with a well equipped kitchen and beautifully decorated for Christmas. Really comfortable and cosy with quality furnishings. Morwen was a kind , considerate and responsive host who even ensured that the generous welcome treats were vegan friendly. Maenclochog itself is a lovely little village with a brilliant cafe and easy access to both the North and South coasts . The Preseli Hills are beautiful and there is a very special quarry lake at Rosebush .Would 100% recommend and hope to be able to return . Thank you Morwen and John for a lovely stay .

What a fantastic find was Llaethdy Arfryn. A last minute booking and we found this beautifully presented cottage situated in the rural village of Maenclochog.It has everything you need for a relaxing break. The converted cowshed is a modern cottage, cosy, clean, comfortable, has easy parking and also came with a great welcome pack. Whilst Maenclochog is in the 'middle of nowhere' it is perfectly central for exploring Pembrokeshire. You are mere minutes from the glorious valleys and hills of the Preseli mountains. The coast e.g. less than 15 miles from Cwm yr Eglwys and St Davids is only 20 odd miles via great lanes.We didn't get a chance in late October to enjoy the garden/courtyard nor the bbq but it'll be perfect for the summer.A really great escape, one which we thoroughly recommend.
