'Top 2016 UK Romantic Weekend Break' - Stylist Magazine
'A welcome in heavenly hills! Warmed by a lovely wood burner, Llys y Frân is a cute, pocket-sized pink 'croglofft' cottage for two, set in a peaceful valley in Pembrokeshire. This area is high on lushness but low on light pollution - perfect to enjoy starry Welsh skies through the roof window over your head. By day explore the stunning Pembrokeshire coast and the clutch of surrounding castles. The nearby medieval town of Tenby has upmarket restaurants and boutiques, while Narbeth offers swish shops and delis to stock up.' Bella magazine choosing Llys y Frân as the best UK cottages to 'Sleep with the Stars'.
Llys y Frân is a traditional Pembrokeshire 'croglofft' cottage set snuggly into the hillside in a quiet and peaceful green valley. Drive down half a mile of track to find the cottage in a field that runs down to a stream. Small, cosy and ideal for romantic getaways. You have two acres of land to romp about in, and direct access to a good footpath network - making this a great cottage for dog owners.
The cottage had been empty since the 1940s and has been fully restored by Under the Thatch conserving all original features. The three-year rescue project provides a cottage full of character, mixing antique furnishings with modern conveniences. Central heating, a modern, efficient wood-burner and an open fire keep the cottage snug year-round.
The location in the heart of Pembrokeshire is ideal for exploring this, the greenest (and many would say prettiest) of Welsh counties. Short drives will take you to unspoilt beaches, ancient castles, and pretty market towns, or there is a footpath over to nearby Llys-y-Fran country park and lake (2 km). At the lake, you can hire bikes and take a trip around the water (6km) on safe tracks.
