  • Relax in the Mediterranean style, wrap around garden

Property code: 90737

This beautiful property is set in the rural village of St Ishmaels boasting a village pub, sports club and garden centre and with popular tearoom. The village sits between Milford Haven (6.5 miles) with its bustling marina filled with shops and restaurants and the beautiful coastal village of Dale (3 miles) - a haven for water sports and sailing enthusiasts. Lindsway Bay (0.75 miles) is a sandy secluded gem off the beaten track, the walk down the cliff steps is definitely worth it. Sandy Haven beach (1.5 miles) is a delight for all ages; high tide paddle-boarding up its 2-mile-long estuary is a must, and at low tide, crabbing and walking the expanse of sand. Monk Haven (1 mile) is secret beach, accessed with a walk down the wooded valley, past the Ancient beautiful church. During the summer months, you may take a boat out to Skomer Island to see the famous Pembrokeshire puffins.

As you enter the property, you are welcomed into the large open plan lounge, kitchen and diner. The lounge offers up two comfortable, leather sofas centred around the Smart TV and cosy wood burning stove. Patio doors lead out onto the decking and garden. The dining table sits adjacent to the lounge in the kitchen area, offering up a perfect social space to enjoy preparing food and dining together as a family. There is also a separate utility room offering plenty of space to wash and dry clothes on the go. The three bedrooms offer up a tranquil and cosy space for a good night's rest. There is a king-size room, a double with en-suite bathroom plus a family room with bunk beds and separate single bed - ideal for children. Completing the accommodation is the contemporary shower room with freestanding double shower, sink and WC.

Out in the garden, there is decking leading onto raised gravel areas. There is plenty of outdoor seating and the wraparound Mediterranean style garden means you are sure to catch the best of the sun at all times of the day. There's a BBQ plinth, too, for use with disposable BBQs so you may enjoy dining al fresco if you wish. Keep children occupied with the large undercover wall mounted chalk board and area to play skittles. The garden is fully enclosed with lockable gates keeping children and dogs safe.  Completing the garden is an outdoor shower, perfect to clean off after a fun day at the beach before going back inside.

We had an amazing stay in La Cantera. We would definitely recommend staying. Perfect for walks and as a base to explore, the village is quiet and everyone is friendly. The local pub is 2 min walk away. Worth 5 stars.

Really spacious, comfortable house with everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. Brook Inn is just round the corner and did fantastic meals. Monks Haven beach was our favourite dog walk.

A fabulously located holiday home for a family of 5 (and a dog) that love the beach and being outside in beautiful south wales. The house has a great welcoming feeling and the wrap around garden is not only super safe for kids and dogs but really quirky and fabulous to sit out in. We would recommend this property highly!

A wonderful cottage, enhanced by the amazing Mediterranean themed garden. Different areas to sit, an array of different plants and features to add to the whole ambience. We sat outside on many occasions, and of course, played French boules and skittles - a welcome and fun addition. The surrounding area had many lovely coastal path walks nearby, andRead more it is in easy distance of Milford Haven, Dale etc. The local pub, The Brook Inn, is one minute walk away, very friendly and served great food.
