I was booked this lovely cottage for Christmas. It is fantastic place to spend time with family. We will definitely back there in the future.

I was escaping from fireworks with a friend and my dog and we didn’t hear any bangs or see any flashes! The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped and Ann and Ben were very accessible. Personally I think they could ease up on the COVID adapted rules but I suppose everyone has different feelings about that. Although remote it’s less than 10 minutes’ drive to Whitesands beach and St David’s airfield was also a great place to walk.

Converted barn which has been done very nicely. We took our 2 small dogs and there is plenty of walking paths across fields - dogs on leads. Probably 4 miles from the coast. Very quiet, beautiful night sky with little light pollution. A comfortable stay in a convenient location if you don't mind a long walk to the beach, or are happy to drive.

Swallow’s Nest was ideal for our requirements. We stayed for 3 weeks - perfect location to get to beaches, St David’s and beyond. We were really fortunate to get such lovely weather.
Thank you Ben & Anne xx

Nice quiet spot. Super location 10 minute drive to St David's or Porthgain for an excellent pub - The Sloop Inn, or to the coastal trail.

We had good memories of our stay here last year and we were not disappointed this year. It was really peaceful and relaxing, a pleasure to stay in. Also a really good place from which to explore the area, get to the sea etc and so nice to get back to.

Overall the property is very spacious with a well equipped kitchen, an unexpected drying room and plenty of outside garden space. The quiet location is a short drive from St Davids means it is easy to enjoy all that the city has to offer, the beautiful local beaches such as Whitesands and the coastal path.
The only minor negative was that due to the ages of the children, we found that as a result of the the second bedroom being on a mezzanine level directly off the lounge we were unable to use the lounge as much as we would have liked in the evening.

We really liked Swallows Nest. It is a very well done conversion ( in our opinion!) and a pleasure to stay in. You can walk directly from it to the coast and coast path and we picked loads of blackerries! Pretty easy to get to and from St Davids and Solva. We had a great week and regretted having to leave.

Very well converted and welcoming property. Despite wet and windy weather we enjoyed returning to Swallows Nest after full days out to light the wood burner and enjoy a glass of wine.

Very comfortable and well-equipped cottage, in a perfect location a few minutes' drive from St David's and several fantastic beaches. We went sea kayaking, surfing and coasteering, jumped 30ft off the side of a quarry into the sea, took a boat trip to see puffins and porpoise, and went on loads of beautiful cliff-top walks to isolated little beaches. Beautiful wild flowers, nice cafes and restaurants, very friendly and helpful owners, perfect holiday.Just be aware that the only shower and bath in the cottage are in the ensuite of the double bedroom, which might not be ideal for some groups. Shower is great. Wifi mostly good with occasional problems for an hour or two. Back garden not fully enclosed so dog can get round to the front - not ideal, and hopefully owners will sort that out, but it's a quiet place so wasn't a big problem for us.All in all, we had a brilliant time. Would thoroughly recommend.

Fantastic location, just 4 miles from St Davids. Beautiful walks and beaches close by. Great for the family, and the dog!

We had a fantastic time in 'Swallows Nest'. It is such a beautiful, tastefully decorated cottage with everything you need for your stay! The location is ideal for exploring St David's and the surrounding area. We were lucky enough to have great weather, which allowed us to sit outside and also enjoy the garden and the sky at night was breath-taking! So many clear stars to look at! We also had the company of a really friendly little cat! Anne, the owner couldn't have been anymore helpful; she was fantastic! Our only complaint is that we didn't stay long enough......but we are already planning our next visit! Perfect cottage, perfect location, perfect hosts!! Ian, Beth, Lily, John & Claire.
