The Telegraph has written an article naming Solva as one of the top four places to visit in Wales…… and our cottage is a few hundred yards from the Cambrian.. across the road from The Ship and around the corner from The Harbour 😊…. Plus the coast path etc etc …… think it was written a little while back though as it doesn’t mention The Hats & Barrels ( we’re opposite!) and MamGu Welshcakes has now moved to the Cathedral in St David’s …

The Telegraph says: "In a county full of seaside lovelies, Solva stands out. But be warned: once you clap eyes on this village, with its flower-draped, stone cottages in bright ice-cream pastels and deep, fjord-like harbour where boats gaily bob, you’ll be sorely tempted to jack in the day job and move to the coast pronto.

"No, its charms haven’t gone unnoticed, but visit in spring or autumn instead of the height of summer and you’ll feel the magic. You’ll be happy to hang out in the village itself, with its galleries, craft shops and pubs: the Ship Inn (cosy beams and craft beers) and the Harbour Inn (waterfront views).

"Or go for an exhilarating ramble on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, up and over gorse-clad cliffs and coves to St David's. Stop for a spiritual moment at St Non’s where legend has it, St David was born in 500AD."

The Telegraph recommends the 16th-century Cambrian Inn (doubles from £100) as a great place to stay, pointing out its pistachio-green façade and how it blends period features with bright, modern flair.

For food it recommends "local legend" Mrs Will the Fish and a boat-fresh seafood platter, before popping into MamGu for Welshcakes which come in various flavours. As for the best day out, The Telegraph suggested heading over to St David's and taking a look around its mighty medieval cathedral followed by some beach time at Whitesands.

For all those adventure seeking people out there St David’s is a 5 min drive or bus ride from the cottage …. one of the many things to do down in the area.
Have a strenuous afternoon coasteering then head back for a lovely hot shower and pop over the road to one of the 3 pubs/restaurants within a few paces of the cottage for a relaxing meal…. What’s not to love 👍❤️

THIS is Coasteering Country! 😍 The St Davids Coastline, what an Amazing place to jump in the Sea and enjoy Pembrokeshire Life 😁...Not quite yet for me...but Summer last here I was in this very spot Coasteering with my family...LOVE IT....Can't wait to do it again this year 😀 Put it on your list 👍

When Tash appears from the kitchen with this freshly made, utterly delicious, simply scrumptious White Chocolate & Raspberry Cake that nobody asked for but everybody wants!

We’re so lucky to have the best staff!!

Available in Solva tomorrow… but will probably sell out before you get here!

Yesterday we had Carmarthen Stroke Group visit MamGu Welshcakes in Saundersfoot Harbour. All in aid of raising awareness of F.A.S.T. and how to identify the early signs of an on coming stroke. This is so important and easy to learn, it can happen anywhere to anyone.
Facial weakness: Can the person smile? Has their mouth or eye drooped?
Arm weakness: Can the person raise both arms?
Speech problems: Can the person speak clearly and understand what you say?
Time to call 999: if you see any of these signs.

Thanks to John from Sailing Club for helping out.
