S W N Y MOR Abereiddy

Sleeps 6 in 3 bedrooms & welcomes 1 pet

P

erched in the small hamlet of Abereiddy, behind the black-sandy beach and mere metres from the Blue Lagoon, is Swn Y Mor. Plan a pre-summer getaway to this coastal haven for an unforgettable holiday before the busy season comes into full force. This red-washed stone cottage is fronted by a pretty wildflower hedgerow and is practically just a stone’s throw from the beach, allowing for easy transportation of surfboards and kayaks to the shoreline. Walkers will delight at the location here with the iconic flooded slate quarry of the Blue Lagoon nearby and the rich industry-laden landscape of Porthgain and Abercastle with remnants of the old slate and brickworks still to be seen. Join the Coast Path, take a dive underwater for sea creatures and shipwrecks or break out the telescope for a spot of astrophotography once the stars come out.

Swn Y Mor’s interiors promise a cosy welcome time after time, with charming original features speckled throughout the property. The sitting room centres around an open fireplace and the dining room is decorated in earthy tones; both are lovely spots to spend the evening. Prepare family meals in the fitted kitchen with Aga or book a table at any of the nearby eateries for a night out in a traditional coastal pub, many of which are still occupied by working fisherman and local boaters during the eves. Explore St Davids for culture and history or head to Strumble Head in search of seabirds and wildlife, along with views of the Lighthouse of course. Whitesands is your nearest large beach, though you’ll prefer Abermawr or Abercastle if travelling with a dog. Full Property Details

Enjoy a spot of sea fishing in the waves before heading “home” to cook up your catch on the barbecue and dine alfresco on the large terrace, or curl up with a blanket on the raised terrace overlooking the beach to watch the sun go down.
