"We had a wonderful stay here."
The cottage itself is beautiful, it's well worth venturing into the woodland and stream behind the property, which feels like a fairy glenn. We took daily walks to the local cove alone the main path and each day saw a seal! The local wildlife here is fantastic. At the cottage we saw a wide variety or birds, a visiting fox, a toad and the icing on the cake, a badger! Make sure to leave the nuts along the patio each night to have chance at a glimpse of him/her. The games room was an added bonus, my partner and I enjoyed more than a few games of pool, table tennis and darts. We met Huw, the owner who was lovely and welcoming and clearly very proud of all the work that has gone into the cottage and gardens. And rightly so! Local places we can reccomend a visit to that are dog friendly: Fishguard fort (very small walk but worth a look,we combined this with a mooch around Fishguard and the harbour) Castell Henleys Iron Age Village, The coastal path near the cottage, Tenby (an hours drive, but worth it) and New Quay (about an hours drive as well but we went on a boat trip and managed to see a pod of dolphins). All in all a wonderful week! We well most certainly be returning! Thank you!

"We had a fabulous vacation."
The cottage had everything you could need and alot more. Beautiful secluded location, but still close to local shops. The walk through the woodland at the end of the garden to the beach was stunning. We were kept busy feeding the birds, badger and fox that visited the bird table on the patio, to be able to watch a badger every evening was delightful. Our hosts were friendly and helpful, happy to share the history of the cottage and local area. Looking forward to a return visit next year.

"We had a lovely time at Trewrach Cottage despite the weather."
The cottage is in a very secluded and peaceful place. It really felt like you were away from everything whilst being within driving distance of towns and beaches. There was lots of wildlife and the fox and badger visited every evening. The games room was a bonus during wet weather. Huw (owner) was very friendly and approachable but not intrusive at all. We would definitely return and recommend to others.

"Trewrach Cottage is in a beautiful, peaceful location."
Although it is not far to drive to get to the main coast road, to visit other places. The roses were looking especially good the week we were there. The owners are keen to be helpful and the cottage is laid out in a practical way, with everything there that you might need. The garden is not enclosed, which might be an issue for some dogs, but our spaniel is not a roamer, so it wasn't a problem for us.

"Loved our stay at Trewarch Cottage."
Was greeted at the Cottage by owner Huw. Gave us a quick tour of the property. Perfect location set within a wooded area with private natural waterfalls cascading down through the ancient woods leading towards an almost private beach set in a cove. Fantastic walks from the beach over the coastal path routes. Huw is a bird lover and there is x2 small milk churn buckets in the dining area filled with peanuts and seeds. Bird table outside French doors for refilling the bird table. Basically you don't need the tv the birds will keep you occupied, often see a pair of jays and a woodpecker plus all kinds of small birds. Thought I saw an Emu at one point Ha Ha! Bedrooms were adequate and comfy Living room has plenty of reference books encyclopedias etc. plus puzzles and card games which we like. Basically, if you like nature and peace and want to relax and feel good about life....this cottage is for you. Would love to visit one day in the future. The games room is cool, please note not attached to the cottage but still close by. Thanks David Heidi & Ralphy

"A wonderful cottage in a lovely location."
Very peaceful with a pleasant variety of wildlife right on the doorstep! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with the ease of access to walks, with stunning views. Only slight negative is the garden is not completely enclosed which we needed for our dogs. The property was lovely and clean and comfortable. Delivery to the cottage by Tesco was a bit of a faf as their van could not negotiate the narrow single-track road so we had to drive to the junction with the main road to collect our order - not a major problem but just to be aware. The games room gave us several night of great family entertainment. The owner is very friendly and social; keen to share his knowledge of the local wildlife and history of the cottage. I only wish we had known about the photo album of the cottage's restoration before the morning of departure as I would have enjoyed looking through it.

"Simply stunning, set in beautiful countryside, good local facilities, walking distance to beach."
Huw, the owner, was a wonderful host and could not do enough for us. Great little spot for wild life. Already rebooked for next year and can’t wait to go back. Thanks Huw.

"Lovely, comfortable and peaceful cottage in a great location for easy access to many beaches and facilities."
It was a pleasure to return to the cottage each evening. The owner was on always on hand to chat or give advice on the wealth of local wildlife or of the area. Definitely a great place to stay.

"The cottage was perfect for a relaxing getaway, fully equipped, very cozy, (thanks to underfloor heating and woodburner), and private."
The dogs loved the large grass area outside with an archway that leads into the woods. There is a lovely walk through the trees that follows the stream to the beach, which we had to ourselves most days it being February much to our dogs delight. We found the cliff paths are quite challenging round Dinas so after walking, afternoons were usually spent with our feet up watching the huge numbers of birds feed on the patio or little orchard behind before 4 overgrown kids headed off to the games room to play pool and table tennis or got our telescope out and made the most of the dark skies. Apart from a 10 minute drive to Fishguard to stock up on supplies we had everything we needed for a great holiday enjoying nature with 2 lively collies. Huw and Feroza were great hosts. I'm so glad we found this place.

"The property, games room, garden, woodland and the small cover beach (10 minutes walk through the woods) was excellent and so was the property owner who was very informative about the area."

"We had a lovely stay at Trewrach."
Beautiful cottage and setting. The gardens are superb - a testament to Feroza's love and care. The birdlife was wonderful. The highlight was the badger visits each evening. Thank you to you both for this special holiday.

"Absolutely fantastic ."
We loved the cosy cottage and the amazing bird watching and visits from the badger. The owners were very warm and helpful. The fact we could walk to the beach in 15 mins (if that) following the stream, was our favourite thing. The area is full of beautiful walks, climbs, swims, etc just what we were looking for. The kids particularly enjoyed the games room which was chilly but well equipped and spacious. Highly recommend

The property
Resting just a short distance away from the breath-taking Pembrokeshire coastline is Trewrach Cottage, an exceptional 400-year-old cottage on the outskirts of Dinas Cross.
With its excellent position, this holiday home is a rare find for families of all ages, beachcombers, avid ramblers and those alike to call home, as they explore the majestic beauty of South Wales.
Savour your picturesque surroundings, where you are sure to catch a glimpse of kites, buzzards, kestrels and hawks flying over the neighbouring fields before heading inside the cosy cottage.
Be welcomed into the sitting room, where the inglenook fireplace, complete with an ancient stone bread oven and woodburning stove take centre stage before the sumptuous seating arrangement and TV.
After resting those post walk-soles on the sofa and relishing in the warmth of the fire, slip through the doors to find the well-equipped kitchen, boasting an array of quality appliances for the chef of the group to rustle up tasty home-cooked dishes.
While eating and relaxing over a bottle of your favourite wine, watch the numerous birds eat just 2m from the kitchen door, where the badger visits and can be seen eating just a foot away most evenings.
For a fun-filled evening, be sure to make the most of the games room, complete with a pool table, table football and table tennis or simply get lost within that book you have been meaning to read in front of the fire.
Once the evening has drawn to a close, catch your rest within one of the two bedrooms, comprising of a double bedroom and a twin bedroom, both served by a family bathroom with a shower over bath, basin and WC.
The garden at Trewrach Cottage has been designed as an extension of the house itself, where you can spend sunny afternoons on the large patio area as something tasty sizzles on the barbecue and you enjoy the company of family and friends.
Additionally, there is a large lawn area for your canine companions to explore, as well as a nearby woodland to meander for a change of scenery.
A relaxing 10 minute, after dinner stroll through the woods along the river bank will take you to Aber Bach, a quite family beach, away from the crowds.
Venture into the center of Dinas Cross where you'll find a handy petrol station and convenience store where you can pick up any forgotten essentials for your staycation, along with a traditional village pub, The Ship Aground, where you can indulge in a bite to eat in a welcoming atmosphere, cosying up around the homely log fire.
Explore the picturesque delights of the nearby area and head to Dyffryn Fernant Garden, where you can enjoy a leisurely stroll through six acres of breath-taking varied landscape, including a bog garden and a fernery.
The world renowned Ffald y Brenin Christian retreat is just a further 10 minutes’ drive.
Head to the coast and spend the day at Pwllgwaelod Beach, a small cove decorated with a mixture of sand and shingle, enveloped by towering cliffs and boasting panoramic views across the stunning coastline.
Ideal parking for a coastal walk around Dinas Island to the quaint village of Cwm yr Eglwys.
Return to the Sailor Safety pub at Pellgwaelod for a well-deserved fresh lobster meal.
Travel further afield to the nearby town of Fishguard, home to a selection of shops and eateries, as well as a host of sights and attractions worth visiting, including Fishguard Fort, dating back to the 18th century and the marine wildlife exhibitions on display at The Ocean Lab.
For places of interest further afield and to save a day’s visit to the tourist information centre there are information leaflets of all the “places of interest” in North & South Pembrokeshire, together with location maps, which are numbered to correspond with the leaflets, making them so easy to find.
Also, information on local walks and a folder with “dog friendly” restaurant & pub menus.
