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 stayed at Bwthyn Gwe in St Davids recently. It is definitely one of the most comfortable holiday cottages we have ever stayed in. Warm and cosy with plenty of space. And the king sized bed is wonderfully set to give a perfect nights sleep. If you're a nature lover and like a relaxed vibe, this is perfect.

Bwthyn Gwe is a remarkably comfortable cottage since Hamish and Linda have anticipated and provided for every possible domestic requirement. We had to persuade ourselves to venture outside because we were so comfortable, curled up with a book in front of the wood-burning stove. Dawn had prepared the cottage to perfection and was available on most days to provide friendly and helpful advice. This was our second visit to Bwthyn Gwe and it provided us with a week of carefree relaxation.

We really loved it, it had all the charm of a country cottage but set in the heart of St Davids within sound of the Cathedral bells and with a garden! It has an ideal location offering all the amenities, shops, pubs and things to do on rainy days with easy access to walks and coastline. The location is secluded, private and feels just a little bit special. We love St Davids and have stayed in a few properties but this was the best. The cottage was warm, really well appointed, lovely white cotton sheets and towels. Everything promised in the profile was there.

We had a fantastic stay at Bwythn Gwe - a beautiful one-bed cottage. Very well-equipped, comfy bed and sofas, perfect location. Would highly recommend - Dawn was fab at check-in and with a query during our stay. Beautiful views from the garden and some great food and pub options in town. Thanks!

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.
Another lovely stay at Bwthyn Gwe. The cottage is perfectly situated in St David’s with the garden overlooking the Cathedral. It is very comfortable and Hamish seems to have thought of everything visitors need for the perfect stay. It’s warm and welcoming with a comfy bed and a kitchen with all you need. Dawn is always welcoming and it is comforting to know there is someone we can call on if a problem occurs - but so far, no problems!
