Trehilyn Farmhouse is a large family holiday cottage ideal for get-togethers on the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, West Wales. Restored by Griff Rhys Jones
- 'Best in Wales' - Country Life
- 'Top 15 Green Places to Stay in the UK' - Observer
- 'Dream Rural Retreat' - Irish Times
Famously restored by conservationist Griff Rhys Jones and family, and the subject of the BBC TV series 'A Pembrokeshire Farm', Ffermdy Trehilyn is a beautifully restored large Georgian farmhouse on the Pembrokeshire coast, in 70+ acres of its own land.
Great for get-togethers and special birthdays, this large detached house has gardens front and back, four receptions, and five bedrooms. Follow the trails around the estate to find the swing and slide for kids, explore the small woodland with cottage ruins, or head up over the hill past artist John Piper's house to the lighthouse and whale-watching station (2.5 miles). 9 minutes drive (3 miles) gets you to magical Abermawr beach.
The conservation of the house was informed by sustainability throughout, and you'll find EV chargers for electric vehicles on the parking area.
