Trem-Y-Don is a charming, traditional, end-of-terrace fisherman's cottage in the historic cove of Cwm-yr-Eglwys within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.
This family-friendly seaside property is only a few minutes’ walk from the beach. The cottage sleeps six guests, and offers accessible ground-floor living, a private garden, off-road parking, all within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park; it's also dog-friendly, so the whole family can enjoy a relaxing getaway at the coast! You'll be welcomed by a spacious sitting room with high ceilings, skylights, and an open fire, perfect for snuggling up on the sofas with a good book during the day, whilst the TV and selection of DVDs provide evening entertainment and there is also underfloor heating throughout. Moving through the property, you'll find everything you need in the kitchen/diner, including a wooden table with benches for six to dine, as well as a fully-equipped kitchen, granite worktops, and plenty of storage space; there's even a washer and dryer to sort sandy towels and muddy walking gear! The rear garden offers an outdoor sanctuary to savour your morning coffee on the decking with outdoor seating, which looks out on woodland for a secluded feel. Back inside, there are two bathrooms to choose from, both with a bath, handheld shower, and towel rail. Trem-Y-Don's classic character continues in the three bedrooms, two doubles and a bespoke, handmade child's bunk, all of which have plenty of storage space, quaint cottage windows, and traditional latch doors. In the mornings, take the 100 yard stroll down to the historic ruins of St Brynach's, overlooking a peaceful sand and pebble cove, perfect for swimming or exploring rock pools. There are plenty of coastal walks to follow, including along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path around Dinas Head to Pwllgwaelod Beach. In the village of Dinas Cross, you can eat out at The Ship Aground or the Masons Arms and stock up at the village shop, whilst the larger town of Newport is home to an array of popular eateries and the golden sands of Newport Beach. Make sure you visit nearby Pentre Ifan, a 5500 year old Neolithic burial chamber and one of Wales' picture postcard photo opportunities. Be sure to pack your hiking boots to embark on a walk up into the Preseli Hills for spectacular vistas, but if that's not for you, visit the Shire Horse Farm in Eglwyswrw to meet the gentle giants or visit Fishguard Town Hall to learn about how Jemima Nicholas, a Welsh heroine and a giant of Welsh history, managed to repel Napoleon's forces in the Last Invasion of Mainland Britain in 1797! Whilst there, call down to picturesque Lower Town where Hollywood classics such as Gregory Peck's Moby Dick and Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton's Under Milk Wood were filmed!. Further afield, you'll find historic St Davids where spellbinding Cathedral, the ruins of St Non's Chapel and Well, and idyllic sandy coves all await. Trem-Y-Don is sure to please on your next family-friendly holiday in Pembrokeshire.
Dinas Cross has a mini market and a pub and is between the Preseli Mountains and Pembrokeshire Coast Path. Pwll Gwaelod and Cwm-Yr-Eglwys beaches are minutes away, both with breathtaking scenery offering tranquil days in perfect settings, and are almost unnoticed by the general public unless they leave the main route through the village, with a petrol station, two pubs, a fish and chip shop, and a restaurant at Pwll Gwaelod beach. Newport is a nearby seaside town with shops, tea rooms, pubs, and boating. This beautiful Welsh county has castles, mills, craft centres, and golf courses galore, making it a year-round vacation destination.

Good walks almost from the front door and beautiful Cwm Yr Eglwys to swim in. The cottage was comfortable and well served with towels and bedding. I would definitely come again. Only slightly negative note, which others have mentioned. Still unclear about general rubbish. No black bag or where to put it. And the saucepans!
David
Would benefit if there were more saucepans! There is only one very large one and a milk saucepan. A signal booster for the TV would probably be useful as well. Some information on what to do with household waste would be helpful. Having said that, the property is comfortable and has most things visitors would neef
