We had a very pleasant stay with the family including 2 dogs despite the weather. It's a very comfortable cottage with all required for a family holiday. It is situated on a working farm (pasture for cattle mainly and a few Alpacas) but it is still quiet and peaceful. The free range eggs are lovely. There is easy access to all types of the water sports in the vicinity but the cottage means you can return to the peace and quiet at the end the day. The cottage, a former grain store, is very close to the Coastal Path so we had some beautiful walks and loved exploring the other paths as well. The coast from Newgale to Strumble Head is spectacular in all weathers. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. The landlord runs his own taxi which is useful when eating out! We're already considering booking for next year.

What a lovely place just to switch off and relax, very quiet and good facilities.
Near enough to St Davids and surrounding coast line but would need a car or good bikes to access any other areas.
All that you need in the cottage to cook, wash etc and sleep peacefully, excellent hosts

Peaceful and Relaxing

Cottage in converted barn opening right onto farm yard with views over open countryside. Nicely converted with modern kitchen and super bathroom. Simply decorated and furnished and our only fault was that it would have been useful to have some sort of dressing table/chest of drawers in both bedrooms with a mirror above for hair drying.make-up, bits and bobs etc.
The family were welcoming and we enjoyed the eggs from their organic hens.
But the best thing was the absolute quietness. The sea was a short walk over the fields and the views wonderful. And the night sky was so clear you could see the Milky Way.

We had a fantastic time at Ty Blawd. The cottage had everything we could have wanted and was perfect and Morgan (the dog) loved the walks from and around the farm.

We have had three holidays in 12 months here and cannot recommend it enough.

Ty Blawd is set on a working farm 2 miles to the North of St Davids, Britain's smallest city. The farm stretches down to the famous Pembrokeshire coastal path, and numerous cycle routes run nearby. St Davids is a beautiful and unique city surrounded by some of the finest coastline in Europe. Granted city status by Queen Elizabeth II because of the presence of the cathedral St Davids is in reality a small beautiful village. Situated within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park St Davids is surrounded by spectacular coastal scenery renowned for its beauty and abundance of wildlife. Many people have fallen to the charm of St Davids including current New Zealand rugby Coach Graham Henry who lists St Davids as his favourite place in the World.

Ramsey Island is home to large colonies of razor-bills, kittiwakes, fulmers, chough, guilliemot, raven, peregrine and puffin. Managed by the RSPB the island is separated from the Pembrokeshire coast by the infamous Ramsey Sound. With each tide the waters surge through the sound making it a firm favourite with the seals, dolphins and porpoise.
