Red Kite Cottage

About this property

Solva 5.9 miles. Red Kite Cottage, a pleasant pet-friendly house nestled in Trefgarn Owen near Solva, Pembrokeshire. Ideal for small families or friends seeking a countryside escape, this abode offers an enclosed garden, open-plan design and serene rural vistas. Arriving at Red Kite Cottage, you follow the private drive into a peaceful farm setting where horses graze quietly in the paddock, and the stables sit just outside the property, giving the approach a gentle countryside charm without feeling remote. As you step inside, wooden flooring welcomes you and naturally guides your footsteps into the open-plan living space. Here, the layout flows around you in an inviting sweep.

Moving across the oak-toned floorboards, you find the fitted kitchen where everything you need sits within easy reach, and the breakfast bar with its four stools creates a relaxed place to chat while meals are prepared. A few steps further brings you to the corner sofa, where you can unwind in front of the TV while the electric fire adds a warm glow that softens the evening. Natural light spills through the patio doors at the far end, drawing your gaze toward the enclosed courtyard. As you continue through the single-storey layout, the wooden flooring leads you to the two bedrooms.

The double room offers a quiet retreat where a built-in wardrobe lets you unpack fully and settle in, while the twin room provides matching storage, making it just as practical for younger guests or friends sharing. The bathroom presents a contemporary and stylish feel, offering a refreshing space to start or end the day with its calm and clean design. Stepping back into the living area, the pull of the patio doors invites you outside. The courtyard is fully enclosed and set with seating, creating an easy spot to pause with a drink while taking in countryside views and the gentle life of the surrounding farm.

With the property being pet-friendly, morning wanders and evening strolls are simple pleasures right from the doorstep. When you’re ready to explore further, Newgale Beach offers unrivalled coastal delights for those on land, or on water! Solva Harbour rewards slow wandering along the water’s edge, browsing small galleries and watching boats shift with the changing tide. A little further meanwhile, St Davids offers its remarkable cathedral rising above winding streets, peaceful cloisters you can drift through and independent shops ideal for relaxed browsing. Likewise, Red Kite Cottage is also close to the Blue Lagoon, Abercastle, Aberrieddy and Porthgain Harbour. For a different landscape, the Preseli Hills provide wide open walking routes where ancient stones rest on the slopes, views stretch for miles and the quiet of the countryside surrounds you.

End the day with a hearty meal at the Farmers Arms at Mathry. Red Kite Cottage offers a warm base for families and friends looking to experience the charm of Pembrokeshire from a peaceful farm setting.

A superb village around a tidal harbour where boats can be launched and walks along the dramatic coast path will be a delight any time of the year. This pretty little village may be small but offers friendly pubs serving good food, gift shops, art galleries and a nearby superb woollen mill shop where special gifts can be bought to remember your stay in Wales. Lazy days sitting and watching the ebb and flow of the tide and the boats bobbing in and out of the harbour are a sheer delight. Visit the nearby woollen mill itself to sit by the waterwheel, go into the weaving shed or enjoy a break in the cafe. Just a few miles from Solva you can visit St Davids, the smallest city in Britain, with its magnificent St Davids Cathedral and wander the small streets to again find unique gifts, eat a hearty meal or an afternoon tea, or just sit in the peaceful grounds of the cathedral, it also houses Oriel y Parc an information centre offering suggestions for exploring the surrounding area.
