The Experience
Set off on a wind-buffeted hike along the coastal path from nearby Whitesands Bay and see the dramatic rocks and reefs which still pose a threat to boats passing through these tidal races.
You stay in a fresh little cottage in the heart of St Davids. It’s just right for a couple with its low-beamed sitting room, a big kitchen with a Rayburn and a wood-burning stove for cosy nights in.
Hop on a ferry to Ramsey Island from three miles down the road, walk a lazy mile to explore caves and rock pools at Caerfai Bay; surfers will head for Whitesands Bay just below. Return to a sundowner with cathedral views from the garden while something sizzles on the barbecue.

We love to spend a week or two in St.Davids each summer. This year was our 9th time in the lovely cottage Bwthyn Gwe! The cottage is always neat and clean and you get a good feeling of old times. We love to sit in the beautiful garden among all the flowers watching the top of the Cathedral and the roofs of neighbouring stone cottages. There are pubs, restaurants and shops just around the corner and most important to us: fantastic beaches and paths for walking!

This cottage provides a tasteful retreat for a couple. Downstairs is open-plan with a beautifully fitted-out kitchen that has the advantage of a modern Raeburn. We enjoy the cottage in summer, when we can spend time in the beautifully-maintained garden; we also enjoy it in colder weather when the efficient central heating system is supplemented by the cosy log-burner. The bedroom is spacious, with room for an extra camp bed if required. Located in the centre of St David's, visitors have easy access to all local amenities on foot, and Dawn, the friendly housekeeper, is on hand for advice.

Charming cottage for 2, but spacious. Beautifully appointed and comfortable. The garden is an amazing space with views right to Whitesands and the cathedral next door! Our daughter rented Ty Gwilym with her family and loved that too. This cottage is right in the centre of St Davids where there is lots to do and see. There are wonderful walks and for our family the beach and surf were amazing. This is our 'Happy Place' come and see for yourself!

We had a fantastic week at Bwthyn Gwe! The cottage was warm & wecoming, stylish but cosy. Dawn was on hand to give us the low down on working the Aga ( we want one at home now!) Everything you could wish for and MORE , perfect setting, ideal location, beautiful City. We'll definitely be booking a return trip so that we can walk more of the Coastal Path.

Location
The neighbourhood
The cottages are a minute’s walk from the centre of a city that is charmingly small and unashamedly old-fashioned. Discover craft shops, food shops, restaurants and pubs, including the Farmer's Arms on the same street. The 12th-century cathedral, the finest in Wales, hides down a hill, and wonderful beaches abound – Whitesands, Caerfai, Abereiddi. Coastal walks are a ten-minute drive.
Local points of interest from Hamish Elvidge
- Whitesand Bay is a wonderful sandy beach within five minutes drive and is great for surfing and sandcastles!
- St Davids Cathedral is the focal point of the city and must be visited!
- Great restaurants (for example Morgans and Cwtch) are plentiful in St Davids and the surrounding area.
- A trip around Ramsey Island cannot be missed, to see the seals and, hopefully dolphins!
- Abereiddi and the Blue Lagoon create a very unique atmosphere.
- Pothgain is a unique, beautiful harbour, which has a really good restaurant (The Shed) and pub (The Sloop)

Introducing
Hamish Elvidge
The owners are Linda and Hamish Elvidge, and Dawn Hughes is the meeter and greeter. A native of St Davids, she is friendly and informative, and fiercely proud of the three cottages she cleans and the garden she so meticulously tends.
We have had a wonderful stay in this beautiful cottage. It is very well located and delightfully furnished. We have enjoyed walking the glorious Pembrokeshire coastal path and visiting St David’s Cathedral. We love this place.
