About

Preseli Venture Self-Catering Cottages, North Pembrokeshire

Set in a peaceful wooded valley on the edge of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, Preseli Venture’s self-catering cottages offer a relaxing coastal escape just a 20-minute woodland walk from a beautiful, unspoilt beach.

Perfectly positioned between St Davids and Fishguard, this collection of eco-conscious properties combines comfort, character and stunning surroundings—ideal for families, couples and small groups looking to unwind and explore North Pembrokeshire.

Stay in Style by the Coast

Choose from three thoughtfully designed properties, sleeping up to 18 guests in total:

  • Eco Barn – a unique Dutch barn conversion with floor to cieling glass, a balcony with striking sea views, and spacious, vaulted living areas (sleeps 8)
  • Penbwchdy Cottage – a characterful Welsh farmhouse blending heritage features with modern elegance (sleeps 8)
  • Loom Cottage – a cosy, wheelchair-accessible retreat for couples with spectacular views across the ancient wooded valley to the coast (sleeps 2 + infant)

All properties offer well-equipped kitchens, wood-burning stoves, and beautiful social spaces. They each have ample off-road parking, private garden spaces, expansive shared lawns and a sheltered courtyard with covered outdoor seating perfect for dining al-fresco. 

Build Your Perfect Activity Holiday

What makes a stay here truly special is the opportunity to plan your entire adventure in one place. Through Preseli Venture, you can book a wide range of guided activities directly, or create a bespoke itinerary tailored to your interests, pace and experience level.

Activities include coasteering, surfing, sea kayaking, paddleboarding, canoeing and climbing, as well as guided e-mountain biking. For a slower pace, visitors can enjoy wood-fired sauna sessions by the coast, beach wellness experiences, yoga retreats, wildlife walks, and a wide range of boat trips to the offshore islands—making it easy to tailor each stay to be as active or as restful as desired.
