Trehilyn Uchaf

'Best in Wales' - Country Life
'Top 15 Green Places to Stay in the UK' - Observer
'Dream Rural Retreat' - Irish Times

Famously restored by conservationist Griff Rhys Jones and family, and the subject of the BBC TV series 'A Pembrokeshire Farm'. Uchaf is a beautifully restored Georgian farmhouse on the Pembrokeshire coast. Expect a genuinely stylish, quality interior with real attention to detail. An authentic restoration was undertaken with sustainability in mind. Enjoy seventy acres of farmland with fine sea views, your own little woodland, and a children's swing and slide set down your track. Hike over Garn Fawr to the famous lighthouse (2.5 miles by road) or 9 minutes drive (3 miles) to wonderful Abermawr beach. Fly fishing for rainbow trout in two ponds available on site. Catch & release, arrange with estate manager after booking. Trehilyn Uchaf is one of two sister cottages which, when combined, are known as Ffermdy Trehilyn. If you’re planning a larger stay, you can book it together with Trehilyn Isaf, and the two link to form one spacious combined house.

We had a lovely time at Trehilyn Uchaf having been moved from Isaf. The house is a stunner; so much history and character and beautifully brought to life. Thank you very much and to Anthony who came round at the drop of a Welsh hat to sort the heating!

A wonderful stay at the timeless and chracterful Trehilyn Uchaf. The property is tastefully furnished with a historical feel yet incorporates modern comforts, such as cosy underfloor heating. Special thanks go to the friendly staff member who so promptly came to help when there was an issue accessing the internet (due to a failed lightbulb sending off the switch in the nextdoor cottage where there Hub was placed -- the internet worked well after this). The green credentials of the property are excellent and it was lovely to notice how much more wildlife there was on the farm since the woodland walk and nature garden had been planted up in the years between when I last visited the cottage. The location is good near the coast path and other Pembrokeshire attractions. Highly recommended.

Thank you we had a lovely stay, particularly the views on the first night having walked up to Strumble head for the sunset! The kids appreciated the nature walk and us, the ping pong!

Wow! I loved this cottage. For a solo retreat with the dogs I could not have asked for more. Warm, cosy, simple. And everyone at UTT, and the staff looking after the cottage, were so kind and helpful.
