Trehilyn was selected by VisitWales as representing the best self-catering cottages in Wales, and Bwthyn Trehilyn is our favourite of the four Trehilyn properties. Meticulously renovated by BBC's Griff Rhys Jones from a ruin using authentic restoration materials and skills, this is a traditional, detached Pembrokeshire cottage in a peaceful location at the end of a track, with seventy acres of farmland that enjoy fine sea views. Walk to the the famous lighthouse on Ynys Meicl or hike out to Porthsychan cove.  Extra photos here or aerial photo. Read the Guardian review of the main farmhouse, just up the track or another independent guest review here. The restoration of this cottage was the subject in 2009 of the BBC4 series Return to a Pembrokeshire Farm.

Mae Trehilyn yn mwy na thebyg yn un o fythynod orau arlwyaeth hunol Cymru. Disgwyliwch bwthyn traddodiadol, cyfoes, sydd wedi talw sylw i fanyldeb. Ymunwch hun gyda lleoliad gwych a phrydferth a dewch i adnabod pam mae’r bwthyn hon yn mor boblogaidd gyda ymwelwyr. Ond peidwich a cymryd ein gair ni am y peth, darllenwch yr arolwg hon o bapur y Guardian. Mae Trehilyn yn dod gyda 70 acer o dir preifat i chwi grwydro arno- gyda llawer ohono gyda olygfeydd allan i’r mor.
