Dinas Island Cottage

About this property

Dinas Island Cottage is a semi-detached National Trust-owned farmhouse situated in a sheltered position on Dinas Island (actually a prominent headland) and is part of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. The farmhouse offers peace, seclusion and is perfectly located on a working sheep farm in north Pembrokeshire. The traditional slate front opens into a large hallway that leads you through to the comfortable lounge with a log burning stove. As you continue, you will find the well-equipped original farm kitchen with its traditional low open-beamed ceiling. On the second floor, you will find one master double bedroom, a bunk bedroom and the family bathroom with a bath, shower, WC and wash hand basin, all enjoying views over the pasture and farmyard.

At the front of the property, you will find a patio area with garden furniture, and to the side and rear, you will find a large lawn area. The lawn area is shared with the owners, but please note that the owners very rarely use it as they are working the farm, and all pets must be kept on a lead. A short walk from the property will grant you access to the Pembrokeshire coast path as well as Pwllgwaelod and Cwm yr Eglwys beaches. A short drive will bring you to Dinas Cross village and Newport, where you will find a selection of pubs, shops, galleries and eateries.

For all of this and so much more, make sure you pick Dinas Island Cottage as your next destination!

The village of Dinas Cross has a well stocked grocery shop, two pubs, a fish and chip shop and lies between the Preseli Hills and the Pembrokeshire coast. Cwm-yr-Eglwys and Pwllgwaelod beaches are both short walks away and the three-mile walk around Dinas Head accessed from either beach is one of the finest walks in Wales. Both beaches are ideal for swimming, sailing, kayaking and paddleboarding. Newport three miles away at the estuary of the river Nevern is a bustling old town with vast beaches and lies at the foot of the mystical mountain Carn Ingli. Fishguard, five miles away is an historic old fishing village on the estuary of the river Gwaun and has many amenities including a cinema, leisure centre and a vibrant music scene which has three festivals devoted to folk, classical and jazz music. Further away is the market town of Cardigan to the north and the historic city of St Davids to the south with its magnificent cathedral and many eating places. There are many good cafes and restaurants in Newport and Fishguard and excellent local produce available at the weekly street market in Newport.
