Penwaun Bach is a detached cottage in an idyllic setting for a couple wishing to enjoy glorious scenery. Set in the beautiful and historic Nevern valley of North Pembrokeshire and within the National Park with lawned gardens, orchards and paddocks, the cottage has wonderful views from the windows.
A path leads from the cottage through the woods on the riverbank, full of white anemones and bluebells in the spring. All this is yours to enjoy and explore in peace and tranquillity as there are no close neighbours.
There’s no need to move from the house windows or garden to watch fascinating wildlife including buzzards, red kites, herons, robins, blue tits, nuthatches, woodpeckers and sometimes the flash of blue as a kingfisher darts up the river; you may be lucky enough to see otters too.
Nevern has an early Norman Church with a 1000-year-old Celtic cross in its churchyard, an ancient pilgrims’ cross carved into rock, an ancient Castle and a village pub.
Whether you need supplies, want to enjoy a meal out or find activities, Newport is just 2 miles away with its restaurants, shops and beaches. There are a variety of cafes, pubs and takeaways, including the dog-friendly Castle Inn, or Blas at Fronlas cafe. Newport Sands, with its Surf Club and ice cream shop, is perfect for water activities or relaxing on the beach, and the area is ideal for walking, whether in the Preseli Hills or along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path.
