Escape to the Hills - stay on a tranquil Preseli smallholding

Lovely six berth holiday home situated on a tranquil smallholding in the heart of the magical Preseli Hills. The peace and tranquillity will help you unwind....Get away from stress and enjoy exploring ancient tracks and stone circles, whilst watching Red Kites hunting overhead. From the top of the hills, there are fabulous views of Cardigan Bay and on a clear day Snowdonia and Ireland can be seen. A short drive will take you to lovely beaches, cliffs and castles. Local pubs serve good food and there are shops and takeaways within 3 miles.

The holiday home has a main double bedroom ensuite with shower, a twin bedroom and a pull out double sofa bed in the lounge. The lounge contains a 32' flatscreen TV/Dvd. The kitchen diner is equipped with a fridge freezer, electric cooker, microwave, toaster, kettle and even a washing machine! The holiday home also contains an iron and ironing board, clothes airer, vacuum cleaner, and a hairdyer.

We provide bedding, pillows, and bed linen. You will need to bring your own towels. The welcome pack includes some tea, coffee, sugar, our own free range eggs, and a pint of milk to get you started. We also leave a couple of toilet rolls in the bathroom in case of emergency. Any further supplies required will have to be purchased by yourself. Gas, electricity and heating are included in your rental.

Behind the Holiday home, there is a private garden with a picnic table and a BBQ, so you can relax and enjoy the stunning views of the Hills and Common. You will have to bring your own charcoal for the BBQ.

And if you wish to explore the Preseli Hills the easy way....Pony trekking is available on site at additional cost starting from £30 per person. We are fully licenced and insured to provide this activity.

Please note that we do not allow any pets inside the caravan due to allergies.

Great location, comfy accommodation, friendly hosts
Booking really easy and had to add to our party at late notice which was no problem. Very friendly & helpful hosts, caravan just as pictured very clean & comfy. We originally book for a walking holiday base but that changed but was still plenty to do. Pony trecking great fun. We will definitely be back hopefully next year for the walking and longer trecking. Thank you Anita & Charlie for making us welcome.

We wanted a base to explore Pembrokeshire from and the Villa is ideal. Anita and Charlie are the best of hosts. You must go on a pony trek when staying here!! Thank you for making our stay so memorable.

Excellent property, location, owners
We are just back from an amazing weeks holiday. This property has everything you need and more . It is in an ideal location to explore Pembrokeshire. It was so lovely to return from days out to the peace and tranquillity. The owners are so friendly and helpful. We did the pony trekking on site, do not miss this when you visit.

Lovely for quiet relaxing stay
Nice mobile, set in the yard of the smallholding with views of gorgeous countryside at the back and a sunny little garden area. Though remote, the property is within easy driving distance of a number of attractions and lovely beaches. For us the absolute peace was amazing! Of course walking and hiking are possible from the door as well as trips just a few miles to the Welsh Nature Reserve or the stunning coastline. We particularly liked the tidal rivers which are to be found in this part of Wales. Narberth is well worth a visit for its lovely food shops and lively atmosphere. Solva for its sheer beauty is worth the drive. We loved the whole experience of meeting the owners, enjoying the homely touches provided and simply relaxing whilst looking out over the hills and fields at the beautiful horses grazing peacefully. Great little place

Welsh Hideaway
My husband & I had a lovely week exploring the Pembrokeshire coast and Presili Hills. The mobile home was in the middle of nowhere (except the owners Anita & Charlie's house!) so it was lovely and quiet with lovely views of the hills and horses. We enjoyed eggs from Anita's hens. We sat outside in the warm evening sunshine soaking in the tranquillity. The accommodation was clean and exactly as described. The kitchen was well equipped which was great as I often find it not to be the case! Thank you, Anita & Charlie. It was nice to meet you!

Rural sanctuary in the Preseli Hills!!
We have just returned reluctantly to London following a much needed & far too short week’s break care of warm & wonderful hosts Anita & Charlie. The mobile home is exactly as described in reviews - pristine, well equipped, comfortable and peacefully located with the added bonus of a lovely outdoor bbq area looking upon beautiful hills & grazing horses. We cannot thank Anita & Charlie enough for their easy & generous hospitality from sourcing bikes for each of the five of us(!!) to delivering warm eggs straight from their hen house. COVID prevented us from enjoying a pony trek with our hosts & yet there was still so much to explore & do. Thank you Anita & Charlie for a lovely escape this year - we hope to return and ride your beautiful horses & enjoy even more of your knowledge & company in a special corner of Wales.

Fantastic holiday
We had a fantastic week at Anita and Charlie’s place. Caravan is clean and comfortable and the location is spectacular. We don’t normally holiday in the UK and were astounded at the beauty of Pembrokeshire. We visited Tenby, Strumble point, Broadhaven, Bosherton Lilly ponds, Poppit Sands beach and the highlight of our stay was the RIB boat trip around Ramsey Island ( not to be missed). Another plus point was a fantastic little fish and chip shop in the next village which absolutely delicious and a total bargain. We had a fabulous week in Wales and will definitely return. Anita and Charlie are lovely and nothing is too much trouble. If you like to be away from the crowds and surrounded by beautiful countryside then this is the place for you!

Great holiday
We had a lovely family holiday in this well equipped caravan. The location was peaceful and we took advantage of the opportunity to go pony trekking in the beautiful Preseli hills. There are towns and beaches located only a relatively short drive away. Owners Anita and Charlie were very hospitable and were on hand to advise us about what the local area has to offer as well as providing us with ample freshly laid eggs during our stay. We would consider returning here again in the future and would definitely recommend the accommodation to friends.

Beautiful location, great accommodation, lovely people
The owners Anita and Charlie just can’t do enough to help and make you feel at ease and comfy. The caravan is well equipped, very clean and has lots of home comforts, even a washing machine. They have lots of beautiful horses, including Shetland ponies, in the fields all around the caravan. It really is a beautiful location and very restful. There are some ancient standing stones nearby that you can visit. This location is quite close to all the towns we wanted to visit, Tenby, Haverfordwest, Cardigan etc. We were supplied with eggs from the farm too which were delicious. If I had to make any minus points it was the internet. It was dire when we were there even though I had checked beforehand to make sure it was available. However there was a problem with the service provider which is probably dealt with by now. We had a relaxing holiday there.

Peace & quiet in beautiful location
Wanted somewhere off beaten track, away from holiday park atmosphere, with easy access to good walking, unspoilt beaches & quaint villages. We got it all, together with beautiful views & lovely weather! Friendly, helpful hosts, with advice, recommendations & maps. Caravan pristine & well equipped. Excellent holiday; thank you!

Stunning location with absolutely delightful hosts
The caravan was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for a really fabulous week away with 2 children. Anita and Charlie (the owners) were utterly charming and kept us topped up with free range eggs from their chickens, along with anything else we asked for. There is a lovely private garden area behind the caravan with a picnic table and stunning views over the hills. To the front of the caravan is a courtyard area overlooking the chicken coop, (which enthralled the children). This area could be gated off so that the children were secure, and also meant that the caravan was very private. We were also given access to a large field for the children to play in. Next to the door of the caravan is a covered patio area with a table and chairs. Inside the caravan, the kitchen/diner has an oven, microwave, washing machine and fridge freezer. The kitchen table comfortably seats 4, and there are 2 additional fold out chairs if needed. There is a twin bedroom and a double bedroom, all with comfortable beds. In the sitting room, there are 3 sofas, a large flatscreen TV with DVD player and Freeview. There is a good selection of DVD's, paperbacks and board games, and a cosy gas fire (with all necessary safety certificates). The bathroom was large, and there was plenty of hot water. There are also night storage heaters throughout the caravan. We took advantage of the Pony Trekking on site, and this was the highlight of our holiday. Even the 3 year old got to ride on a gorgeous little Shetland Pony called Queenie! Other highlights included the kebab from Crymych, (a village 3 miles down the road with butcher, bakery, and enormous Spa shop that was like a small supermarket.) and trips to Tenby, New Quay, Cardigan and Folly Farm. We really enjoyed getting away from it all, and will definitely visit again. This is a beautiful spot, and an ideal base from which to sightsee across Pembrokeshire and Ceredigion. Thank you Anita and Charlie for a lovely relaxing stay, and for getting me back on a horse for the first time in 20 years!

Peaceful and beautiful location
The caravan is immaculately clean and perfectly equipped. Anita and Charlie couldn’t be more friendly or helpful. The welcome pack of milk, eggs (free range from their own chickens of course!), tea, coffee, sugar is a lovely touch. The location is perfect, very peaceful and scenic but not too far from local shops and within easy reach of so many gorgeous places to visit, especially on Pembrokeshire’s coast. Definitely recommend!

A real "away from it all" escape to the hills experience.
Had a great week despite some bad weather. This was a good base for us touring the area by motorcycles and we managed to dodge the showers on most days and get away to the Pembrokeshire coast which is spectacular. Even tried pony trecking for the first time which was great fun but preferred the saddle on the bike!! Property was great and comfortable and was all we needed. Anita and Charlie ( both bike enthusiasts) were good hosts and we had a great time with them, especially on the horses! Would recommend it so long as you want some peace and quiet in a fairly remote location.

We had a really lovely stay - just what we wanted and wasn't disappointed.
A great countryside experience, horse riding would have been good but the cycling for us was just as good. We loved the location within the National Park with plenty to do and good variety Anita & Charlie were welcoming and generous despite their busy and anxious few days.

Very clean and comfy.
I stayed at Pantyrhug for a week in August with my husband and our 8 and 16 year old. The property was a static caravan within a small holding owned by a very friendly couple (Anita and Charlie). We had never stayed in this type of accommodation before so was a little weary but it was lovely. The lounge area had very comfy sofas with enough room for the four of us to sit comfortably. The kitchen was very functional and the bathroom was clean and had a good shower. The bedrooms were comfy with plenty of storage. There was also empty stables to bring your own horse. Set within the Preseli Hills the accommodation had views of rocky hills and the owners horses grazing. The local area is great for walks with many hills and rock formations to conquer. All major destinations i.e Tenby, Pembroke, St David's were all 40is minutes drive away with many beautiful beaches along the coast between. We really enjoyed Tenby, St Govens Chapel and Abereiddy. would defo recommend!!😁򐐽򐘁
