About this cottage rental

Whether you stride or stroll off to the headland, skip down the path to the harbour or simply enjoy the garden, you will find this charming cottage ideally situated with it's superb views of the sea and islands lying off the coast of Pembrokeshire's National Park, and very close to it's renowned Coastal Path. Tastefully furnished with antiques and colourful fabrics, it is well planned and offers everything for a relaxing trouble-free holiday. The south-facing patio is bathed in sunshine, a place to share your breakfast with the robin and black bird, where you may prefer to lunch under the parasol, and (if you are lucky) a candle lit dinner is often possible. The large, lawned garden is so enticing that some hardly venture further afield, however the coastal path is a minute away, as is the path down to the harbour with safe swimming, sand and rock- pools at low-tide and 'crabbing', sailing, fishing.....

The bustling village of lower Solva has lots to offer - restaurants, pubs, shops, galleries, supplies, Restaurants, Pubs and Fresh Crab: Five minutes walk away is the village store and off-licence (open everyday 8 till late) here you can buy most essentials, it also has a Post Office section (norm. opening hours). New automated fresh local milk distribution point. The farm shop Penpant is 1.5 km away for fresh fruit and veg.

St.Davids has a good supermarket (delicious fresh bread baked throughout the day) and a lovely delicatessence. The closest large town, Haverfordwest has umpteen supermarkets, some providing on-line order. There is a local catering service that will provide wonderful meals as and when you require them.

In the village, four local pubs all provide excellent food in addition to the three restaurants that cater for those 'special' evenings. DOWN ON THE QUAI there is a licenced tea-room for snacks and sandwiches and, if you are lucky, you might manage to persuade a fisherman to part with some of his catch.
Just up the road from the cottage you can buy superb DRESSED-CRAB and lobster... an absolute MUST before you leave.

Further afield: Apart from the beaches, boats and coastal activities there are so many wonderful things to do and places to visit that it is impossible to list them all, but there are pottery's to potter in, chocolate factories to...well,.....eat chocolate in!, farms where you can feed and touch the animals, light-houses you can climb up, life- boats to explore, sheltered gardens to discover,.....
go-karts to whizz around on, the coast to view from an aeroplane, take a flying lesson, enjoy a round of golf, or have a family day at the fantastic theme park...

A FREE TOURIST JOURNAL is readily available in all shops, petrol stations restaurants etc. and will provide ALL the information that you can possibly require to make the most of your stay. READ IT WHEN YOU FIRST ARRIVE !!!!
Our visitors book will also offer many suggestions and useful comments.

We had a wonderful three weeks in George House and enjoyed every minute of it. The house is very well kept and full of little details, which make it so very homely. The kitchen is fully equipped and there was nothing we missed. On top of everything there is the lovely garden with its stunning views and where you will find many things to discover. We loved sitting on one of the garden benches in the evenings enjoying a glass of wine. As very keen walkers we were glad that the beautiful fantastic coastal footpath was so close to the house. From there you have fabulous sceneries towards St. Davids and beyond as well as towards Broad Haven and Little Haven. We can recommend the „Cambrian Inn“ and the „Hats and Barrels“ for an evening meal out. Both are easy to reach and within walking distance. Same goes for the local pubs and cafés. Shopping is just a couple of minutes up the road, where the „Bayview Store“, although very small, has a good choice of articles, including fresh seafood (we loved the dressed crab). We also grew very fond of Patricia and Mario, the owners of the house. Although they were both quite a long way away, they were very caring and we felt close to them. We were very interested in the history of the house, since it is very old. Patricia and Mario dug out some documents and shared very interesting information with us. To round everything up, we had a fabulous time at George House and look forward to returning.

This property in Solva was perfectly positioned for exploring the Pembrokeshire coast path, with a range of wonderful but manageable walks and beaches. The house is in a great position with lovely views of the cliffs and the sea from the house and the garden / we had breakfast and dinner outside for several warm September days. Only 6 minutes drive from St David’s but so much better to have the sea views from this house in Solva and the harbour is also very pretty. The house is very comfortable- well equipped kitchen, good WiFi etc. Great place to stay to get the best of Pembrokeshire.

George house made our holiday into one of the best. My 80 year old mother-in-law and my two kids wanted to stay much longer! It has everything. Cosy, clean, well equipped and beautiful. Even the huge gorgeous garden has stunning views. It is close to everything you need & we didn't use our car often. Many thanks Patricia - you made us feel at home.

This is a beautiful house overlooking the bay of Solva. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend for other families. Solva is perfectly located to explore the Pembrokeshire coast and is only a stone's through from the wonderful St David's.

A beautiful homely property the very opposite of a soulless holiday rental. The house was spotlessly clean, warm and inviting and very well equipped. The views are just stunning and unexpected. It was an absolute joy to return to after days spent walking anf fishing. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful home.
