As you step inside, the cottage's warmth and character immediately welcome you. The sitting room is a cosy sanctuary, featuring an inglenook fireplace, a wood-burning stove, and comfortable furnishings that invite you to relax after a day of exploring. Just next door, the charming dining room retains its original shutters, providing a lovely setting for memorable dinners with family and friends. Meals can be lovingly prepared in the well-equipped kitchen, which boasts all the modern amenities you could need, including an oven, hob, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, and fridge/freezer.

This floor also features a quiet study area, perfect for catching up on work or enjoying a peaceful moment to yourself.
One of the highlights of Porthgwidden Cottage is its private garden, which is accessed just off the kitchen.
