Excellent place overall, to stay for the week. Great central location for my walks / birding around the fantastically scenic coast path and nearby Ramsey and Skomer islands. Will defo return to this area/cottage again to continue walking the beautiful coast path.The top notch city of St Davids is a fantastic location. The cathedral is something else!!
