Lovely cottage. Few bits of maintenance needed for little things that don't make or break a holiday but can make it less hassle. Plug not quite stopping bath water draining, half broken shower door handle, half shutting bedroom window, recycling boxes not where the instructions said, doors sticking, lack of extra sheets for beds etc. Lovely place just perhaps a little complacent because it is so nice?

Another amazing holiday at lower Porthmawr
We just love this house so much, it’s the perfect holiday cottage. There was lots of nice new touches since our last visit, re-decoratex living room, new sofas, tv, bedding, soft furnishings and easier recycling which made it even better. The house was also super clean when we arrived. Communication with Marek was excellent, he was so helpful and lovely. We can’t wait to come back.

Why they chose this property

The cottages are situated in one of the most amazing locations. They are in South Wales, 1 mile from St Davids, the smallest city in Wales, which has a beautiful cathedral and an assortment of restaurants, cafes and craft shops. However, the highlight of the location is that the cottages sit high on a hill looking directly over the Irish sea and across to Ramsey Island. The whole area, which includes the Pembrokeshire Coastal path - 180 miles - is a national park and therefore pristine. Whitesands Beach, beautiful in it's own right but also delightful for families with it's many rock pools, is also a haven for surfers and swimmers. The coast is home to many seals and the nearby Ramsey Sound hosts porpoise and an abundance of sea life.

What makes this property unique

The cottages are only a 5 minute walk from Whitesands Beach and the coastal path and only a 15 minute walk to an isolated beach inaccessible by car. The views from the coastal path are incredible, whichever direction you walk in. The cottages have a variety of maps and guide books to help you find your way around. We do take dogs on request and the surrounding area is ideal for them. When guests have discovered Lower Porthmawr and The Roost, they return time and time again. Try it for yourself and you will see why.
