Description of the holiday cottage

Maes Y Gwaelod is a recently built detached house in the pretty Pembrokeshire village of Solva, with countryside views to Carn Llidi. It’s just a 5 minute stroll down the hill to the friendly pub, The Royal George, and from there you can meander down past the small independent shops to the harbour to find more pubs and a choice of places to eat. Maes Y Gwaelod has 4 1st floor bedrooms, between them sleeping 9, on the ground floor there is an additional sitting room that converts into a downstairs bedroom with wheelchair access. The kitchen/dining room is a lovely size offering a great social area for cooking and dining. The house has 3 bathrooms, 2 on the 1st floor and 1 on the ground, all have large powerful showers, just what you need after a day at the beach.

Only 10 minutes’ drive from the beautiful City of St Davids with its cathedral and Bishop’s Palace, Solva itself offers wonderful opportunities for walkers, families (crabbing for the kids!), dog owners, kayakers, sailors, and more.

Within 10 minutes in either direction of Solva you will find beaches waiting for you: paddle, swim, fly a kite, build a sand castle or take a long walk on the Coastal Path.

Cottage Review:  

We had a lovely time in Maes Y Gwaelod. We couldn't have asked for more in terms of accommodation - our every need was catered for. The accommodation was clean, modern and wonderfully finished. It proved to be a brilliant base for getting out and about and I couldn't recommend it highly enough.
