Penywhelp House

About this property

Welcome to Penywhelp House in the lovely village of St Dogmaels (Llandudoch),

Pembrokeshire. The house is just over a mile from Poppit Sands, a beautiful

beach that is family and dog-friendly. There is also great access to the

coastal paths, which provide spectacular views and are perfect for long and

short walks.

Built in the 1800s, Penywhelp House is a charming two-bedroom property with

views of the River Teifi. It is full of character with beams, sash windows

and an old bread oven.

The living room is comfortably furnished and includes a large smart TV and

a wood-burning stove to enjoy pleasant evenings in front of a fire.

The kitchen is small but well-equipped. It is a traditionally styled Welsh

kitchen with a slate floor, Welsh dresser, Belfast sink, beams, and an old

bread-oven. The dining room is light and airy with an extendable dining

table that can seat up to 6 people.

Both bedrooms are spacious doubles with window seats overlooking the River

Teifi. The bathroom is modern with a shower and bath.

The property includes parking for one vehicle and an enclosed rear garden.

The patio is planted with fresh herbs and has a table and chairs for four.

Our family has been enjoying Penywhelp House since 1911 and it provides the

perfect countryside escape for four guests and two well-behaved dogs; we

hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Within St Dogmaels, there is an array of amenities; just paces from

Penywhelp House is The Ferry Inn offering delicious meals and tipples.

In the centre of the village is the Premier convenience store for

essentials and Glebelands Market Garden on the road to Cardigan provides

excellent local produce.

In the village you can also visit St Dogmaels Abbey and a working water

mill, Y Felin.

Don’t miss the local market on Tuesday mornings by the Abbey and enjoy a

coffee at The Coach House Visitor Centre!

Just over a mile away is Poppit Sands, perfect for a family day out or

walking the dogs. Make sure you visit The Crwst Café, which offers

wonderful ice cream, doughnuts, and coffee.

A short journey away, is the neighbouring Cardigan town offering a wide

range of food, drink, and shopping.

And there is so much more to explore in this idyllic part of Wales!

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

St Dogmaels is a quaint and old community nestled peacefully around its ruined abbey at the mouth of the River Teifi on the wild west Wales coast. Y Felin, one of only two operational watermills in Wales, is one of the attractions. It still has the machinery built in 1820. The mill is considered to have been built by the monks of St Dogmaels' Abbey in the 12th century. The miller demonstrates how the mill works, and you may buy bread, flour, and cakes there, or visit the Coach House Café nearby for tea and cakes and light lunches. Every Tuesday, an award-winning local food market is held here, and it is well worth a visit. A pub, a fish and chip store, a Post Office, a cafe, and a small museum near the abbey are all located in the settlement. There's also a lovely green and a duck-filled millpond. Just over a mile away is Cardigan, a charming ancient market town.
