A perfect place for a break away from it all. A very rural location, but with plenty of beaches and castles nearby, as well as a pub 8 min drive away. The garden is perfect for dogs. The house itself is comfortable and spacious, with the the well equipped kitchen/diner being the heart of this home. The signing of the birds, the gentle hum of the sea in the distance all add charm and a sense of relaxation to this wonderful home. St David's, Solva, Tenby are all within comfortable reaching distance.
