Pleasant Valley - Pleasant Valley

Pleasant Valley is a detached bungalow on the edge of St. Florence in rural South Pembrokeshire, within reach of the coast and Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. Everything is on ground level: four bedrooms (one with an ensuite roll-top bath and walk-in shower, two with twin beds, one with a king), a second bathroom, living room with wood burner and television, and a kitchen fitted with a Rayburn cooker and dishwasher. A conservatory opens onto the garden, where there's seating and a private hot tub for six. The property sleeps eight and parking fits three cars.

You get electricity, wi-fi, bed linen, towels and initial logs included. The kitchen is set up for cooking proper meals rather than heating tins. An enclosed garden means children can play safely, though there are two steps down to it. Non-smoking only. From here, Carew Castle and its tidal mill are a short drive, as is Manorbier beach with its own castle. The local pub in the hamlet serves Welsh ales and local food.
