About this property

Delightful family cottage with large garden, amazing sea views, in Solva village

Whether you stride or stroll off to the headland, skip down the path to the harbour or simply enjoy the garden, you will find this charming cottage ideally situated with it's superb views of the sea and islands lying off the coast of Pembrokeshire's National Park, and very close to it's renowned Coastal Path. Tastefully furnished with antiques and colourful fabrics, it is well planned and offers everything for a relaxing trouble-free holiday. The south-facing patio is bathed in sunshine, a place to share your breakfast with the robin and black bird, where you may prefer to lunch under the parasol, and (if you are lucky) a candle lit dinner is often possible. The large, lawned garden is so enticing that some hardly venture further afield, however the coastal path is a minute away, as is the path down to the harbour with safe swimming, sand and rock- pools at low-tide and 'crabbing', sailing, fishing.....

The bustling village of lower Solva has lots to offer - restaurants, pubs, shops, galleries, supplies, Restaurants, Pubs and Fresh Crab: Five minutes walk away is the village store and off-licence (open everyday 8 till late) here you can buy most essentials, it also has a Post Office section (norm. opening hours). New automated fresh local milk distribution point. The farm shop Penpant is 1.5 km away for fresh fruit and veg.

St.Davids has a good supermarket (delicious fresh bread baked throughout the day) and a lovely delicatessence. The closest large town, Haverfordwest has umpteen supermarkets, some providing on-line order. There is a local catering service that will provide wonderful meals as and when you require them.

In the village, four local pubs all provide excellent food in addition to the three restaurants that cater for those 'special' evenings. DOWN ON THE QUAI there is a licenced tea-room for snacks and sandwiches and, if you are lucky, you might manage to persuade a fisherman to part with some of his catch.
Just up the road from the cottage you can buy superb DRESSED-CRAB and lobster... an absolute MUST before you leave.

Further afield: Apart from the beaches, boats and coastal activities there are so many wonderful things to do and places to visit that it is impossible to list them all, but there are pottery's to potter in, chocolate factories to...well,.....eat chocolate in!, farms where you can feed and touch the animals, light-houses you can climb up, life- boats to explore, sheltered gardens to discover,.....
go-karts to whizz around on, the coast to view from an aeroplane, take a flying lesson, enjoy a round of golf, or have a family day at the fantastic theme park...

A FREE TOURIST JOURNAL is readily available in all shops, petrol stations restaurants etc. and will provide ALL the information that you can possibly require to make the most of your stay. READ IT WHEN YOU FIRST ARRIVE !!!!
Our visitors book will also offer many suggestions and useful comments.

Sea views and great walks
This property in Solva was perfectly positioned for exploring the Pembrokeshire coast path, with a range of wonderful but manageable walks and beaches. The house is in a great position with lovely views of the cliffs and the sea from the house and the garden / we had breakfast and dinner outside for several warm September days. Only 6 minutes drive from St David’s but so much better to have the sea views from this house in Solva and the harbour is also very pretty. The house is very comfortable- well equipped kitchen, good WiFi etc. Great place to stay to get the best of Pembrokeshire.

Most beautiful house!
George house made our holiday into one of the best. My 80 year old mother-in-law and my two kids wanted to stay much longer! It has everything. Cosy, clean, well equipped and beautiful. Even the huge gorgeous garden has stunning views. It is close to everything you need & we didn't use our car often. Many thanks Patricia - you made us feel at home.

Amazing Week in Solva
This is a beautiful house overlooking the bay of Solva. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend for other families. Solva is perfectly located to explore the Pembrokeshire coast and is only a stone's through from the wonderful St David's.

About the host

Hosted by Patricia Pellegrini Temple

Host profile image
My family discovered Solva when I was a child who loved sailing. 60 years later, still a keen sailor, although living abroad we return every year and never tire of the beauty of the bay and the charming Solva community.

Why they chose this property

Nothing compares with sitting in the garden, (or the bay window or new landing window) with a glass of wine and just soaking up the view across the bay to Skolmer Island. In moonlight it is utterly magical. (The international space station passes overhead, approx every 20mins)
Inside, is full of character, but is practical, warm, and well equipped, with original art work on the walls.
Perfectly positioned for the local store, and pub and only
a stones throw from the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path,, walk as far as you like and return by bus.

What makes this property unique

Breathtaking views
Large enclosed garden.
No through-roads to cross on way to harbour.
