    “Lovely cottage, shower could be a bit better but apart from that highly recommend it.”

    The owners were very welcoming and helpful with places to eat and visit and were very dog friendly! Would definitely go back

The property

Carew 2.0 miles, Tenby, 9.0 miles, Narberth 9.5 miles.

Tucked away in the rural village of West Williamston, just a short drive from the historic splendour of Carew Castle, lies the charming, stone-built cottage of Swallows Retreat.

Brimming with character, boasting off-road parking, a furnished courtyard, well-appointed living spaces and a great position in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, this delightful holiday home welcomes a family of four or sharing couples for a relaxing, self-catered getaway to the heart of the Pembrokeshire countryside.

After parking up outside the cottage, step into your new home-from-home and make yourself comfortable.

Head into the open-plan living area, where a fully-equipped kitchen area houses all the appliances you'll need to whip up a tasty, home-cooked dinner.

Savour your meals with your loved ones at the dining table, before you all gather on the corner sofa to enjoy a film on the sleek, wall-mounted Smart TV.

When sleep inevitably calls, be sure to indulge in a rejuvenating bath or shower on your way to hunker down for well-earned rest in either the plush king or cosy double bedroom.

After you've finished your morning coffee whilst sat in the courtyard, lace up your shoes and head out to explore what your local area in store.

A brief car journey from your new dwelling will bring you to several noteworthy landmarks and attractions, including Carew where the village shop near the bridge offers the essentials and where you can visit the awe-inspiring Norman Castle & Tidal Mill, both overlooking the Mill Pond.

Further afield, Pembroke and Manorbier Castles will further excite the historians in the group!

For the young or young at heart meanwhile, the family-friendly Folly Farm Adventure Park & Zoo, as well as Heathertons World of Activities and Manor Wildlife Park will keep all ages entertained.

To experience true Pembrokeshire hospitality, take in a meal at the Carew Inn or visit the iconic Cresselly Arms for a pint with the locals.

The coastal adventurers meanwhile can explore the Pembrokeshire Coast Path with popular Tenby or Saunersfoot the ideal stop off for an ice cream along the way!

Whatever you choose to do during your next visit to Pembrokeshire, do it from the terrific base of Swallows Retreat.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.
