Charming Cottage, near Newport

This sturdy cottage has one double bedroom, a traditional open fireplace, kitchen, bathroom and an upstairs bedroom with single beds (restricted headroom and requiring nimbleness for access by sturdy ladder stairs with handrail.) Its quirky character is part of the cottage's charm - suitable to holidaymakers keen on simple living.
Fully furnished, with a video for DVDs, Washing machine, Fridge, Electric cooker, and Broadband internet. There is a parking area for 2 cars opposite the cottage.
Situated in the unrivalled Gwaun Valley, the cottage is backed by steep-sided oak clad valleyside, and a bubbling stream flows beside the property. Secluded garden with hanging line, seats, table and barbecue. Very quiet, protected and peaceful, with pubs about 1 mile in either direction (one of them well known: 'Bessie's') beaches including Newport Sands, 3-5 miles, legendary Pembrokeshire coastal walks, fishing, fresh water and sea. For active living, or just enjoying your leisure, it makes for an unforgettable holiday experience.
Beside the Pembrokeshire National Park, and in a protected site of Special Scientific Interest, the Gwaun Valley abounds in wildlife and interesting insects. A small and beautiful river flows down the valley, with Brown Trout. On blowy days, the valley tends to be warmer than upland areas.

Fabulous Cottage, Stunning Location
We had a marvellous fortnight at Cwmllan, a cosy cottage in a beautiful wooded valley not far from the coast. Fabulous footpaths, stunning scenery, cracking coastpaths and a cosy cottage to come home to at the end of the day. It was so lovely to fine somewhere so unpretentious and homely. There are lots of great walks from the cottage, including of course the stroll to 'Bessies' - walking back under a full moon without the need for a torch was grand. So much variety in North Pembrokesire was a real surprise - walks included woods (Ty Canol wood was amazing), moor, common, hills, riverside, beaches and rugged coastpath. We'd love to return and are very grateful to Heather and Phil for sharing their beautiful cottage with us - and for the welcome pack - Thank you!

Location is amazing, but there is a big issue with the water pressure.
Location is amazing, tranquil and very green near beautiful beaches. The beds are very cosy. Kitchen is well furbished. I didn't give it a 5 star rating because there is a big problem with the water pressure. We were unable to shower. Some days there was not enough cold water coming out of the shower (l boiling shower) and other days no hot water so unable to get a warm temperature all week. Not enough water for 4 people. But we managed twice to get a quick cold shower. It is a real shame because everything else was nice.

Very very Basic .
The location is lovely but quite far away from everything. Bedding and bedroom clean and comfortable. Kitchen equipment ok . Had everything we needed . Stairs , A death trap !! Very dangerous! .Cold water taps very low water pressure, only runs at a trickle. Practically impossible to have a decent shower . Some windows didn’t close properly others broken . Had a few mice 🐁 visiting! . Needs low doorway warning signs ! And desperately in need of decorating. Effervescent and mould on walls . Clothes felt damp even in July ! . Would be nice to have an aerial for Tv . Hard to get hold of dvd’s these days. Internet very slow . This cottage could be so much better with some TLC

Lovely cottage in beautiful location
Cwmllan is an old cottage with a lot of character. It is simple and old fashioned but has everything you need. It's the perfect place to get away from it all and unwind. The road is very quiet and the valley is incredibly beautiful, full of insects and birds and woodland flowers (in spring). I didn't want to leave.

Peaceful and beautiful
We enjoyed the rustic and quaint cottage in a beautiful and quiet location. Lots of things to do nearby and walks in the valley. We loved walking to Bessies for a couple of pints of Bass in the evenings.
