Priced for up to 2 staying, sleeps 5. An idyllic family Pembrokeshire barn with folk-art furnishings. Garden sauna with mountain views available!
We're delighted to welcome Dolaumaen Isaf back as a letting cottage with Under the Thatch. This beautiful barn is peacefully located in the wild hills of the Preselis, yet near enough to some of the best beaches in Wales (about 20/25 minutes) - it is a super place to relax.
Artist/ ceramicist owners Yoshie and Robin live just a hundred yards down the track where they have a pottery studio, and you can feel their Japanese heritage in the immaculately kept interior and small, lovely artistic touches in every room - it's a world away from staying in the second home of a distant landlord that doesn't quite keep on top of the maintenance!. The chief delight inside is a remarkable collection of country furniture and artworks, of the quality and kind that tells you how much the family loves this house.
Enjoy wonderful hiking right from the door, you can even explore the nearby prehistoric quarry from where the Stonehenge bluestones were cut. Summer breaks will be beaches and mountain meadows and perhaps trips down to Tenby, winter escapes enjoyed fireside and in the sauna (modest fee applies for the sauna).
A great choice for families, and those who want a bit of mountain wilderness, yet with easy access to the very best beaches like Mwnt, Poppit Sands and the Parrog at Trefdraeth.
You can book sister property Y Felin Dolaumaen here, to accommodate two additional guests.
