Archer's Cottage Holidays NO PETS, sorry! Hello! We are Paul and Judi Bowen, owners of Archer’s Cottage. A holiday haven that we recreated from what was once a Pig Sty!!
(1)

Archer's Cottage is a romantic barn conversion for two, ideally located in a remote position, which will appeal to couples who are looking for a peaceful retreat, while being within easy reach of everything Pembrokeshire has to offer. Our story begins with a need to change our lives, after Judi became disabled. We knew that we would need to move from Hampshire in order to bring our plans to fruiti

on, and so started exploring other parts of the UK, but it wasn’t until we ventured into Wales for the first time, that we began to believe that we could make our dreams come true. We fell in love with Pembrokeshire, and after a couple of weekends spent house hunting here, sold up and moved to our dream home in the country in March of 2016. Judi says: “When we first moved here, I was terrified that the house might be too remote for me, but after a bit of exploring, I discovered that my little piece of heaven, while seeming to be in the middle of nowhere, was actually within a 15 to 40 minute drive of everything that I could need, including some of the most beautiful beaches in the world! Hint: Try visiting Barafundle Bay which is regularly voted as one of the most beautiful beaches in Wales, if not the world, and was used as the main setting for 2010 film Third Star, featuring Sherlock star Benedict Cumberbatch, written by Pembrokeshire-born, Vaughan Sivell. Archer’s Cottage:
Is located in the grounds of our own home, and while the old expression has it that ‘you can’t turn a pig’s ear into a silk purse’, we’ve done our best to turn a pig sty into a fabulous luxury home from home. When we decided to open the cottage for letting, we gave a lot of thought to the things we would like, and would hope to find, if we were going away for a long weekend or a ‘staycation’. To this end you will find not only a fully equipped kitchen, gorgeous bathroom, and woodburning stove to keep you cosy during a winter break, but also quality bed linens, together with the smaller, but possibly even more important touches, like a wooly throw to wrap around you when you want to sit and star gaze from the balcony, a picnic basket for a day out in the countryside, hot water bottles, in case you suffer from cold feet, or feel a little off colour during your stay, and a First Aid kit for those little emergencies. However, if you find ANYTHING that you feel would add to the experience when you are here, do please let us know, as we’re always open to new ideas.

I just signed the campaign calling on Avanti West Coast to give back their bonuses. Will you join me?

26/01/2024

For those of you who have followed us over the years, we just wanted to let you know that due to ill health, we have had to sell Archer's Cottage, and it is no longer available as a holiday let.

Thank you to all those who chose Archer's Cottage for their holiday.

Best Wishes

No?

Thought not?

Why is that, you may ask. Well it's simple really, unlike many self catering and hotel accommodations, we made the choice NOT to increase our prices by EXTORTIONATE amounts! After all, how many of you have had major pay rise this year? OK, we've had to put our prices up a little, to cover costs of increased insurance, as the pandemic caused huge price rises by insurers, but other than that, we've kept our prices reasonable.

So if you fancy stealing a march on the crowds, why not book an autumn break or even next year's summer holiday, safe in the knowledge that you're NOT being ripped off, then send us a message, give us a call, or indeed visit our website at www.archerscottageholidays.com.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hi everyone

Due to a temporary problem with broadband in the cottage, we have an unexpected cancellation for the week beginning Friday, 25th June. So if you fancy powering down, and getting away from it all, we can offer you a last minute deal to reflect the fact that there won't be any broadband, at the BARGAIN PRICE OF £500.00

(Please note: We also require a damage deposit of £150.00 which is fully refundable within 48 hours of departure, assuming there is no damage or major breakages.)

After months of lockdown, it was lovely to finally be able to welcome our first guests from England this afternoon. The sun was shining, and there are still plenty of signs of Spring for them to enjoy, with daffodils and primroses in the hedgerows, together with new lambs in the fields as you look out from the balcony. The birds are singing and all is well with the world at Archer's Cottage.

With our new freedoms finally allowed, we're getting a lot of enquiries for the coming months, so don't miss out, take a look at our website www.archerscottageholidays.com and book NOW!

Feeling a bit flat now that Christmas is over?

Why not book a short break or Summer holiday so that you have something to look forward to in the year ahead?

Worried you might not be able to get your money back if you have to cancel due to Covid?

Well now you don’t need to worry, as we offer a FULL REFUND (usually within 24 hours). So if either of you get Covid, are ordered to self isolate, or go into a local or full lockdown, just send us proof, and we’ll get your money right back to you.

Sound good?

Not going to be able to catch up with the family this Christmas because of Covid?

Think it's likely to just be the two of you?

Sick of the sight of your own four walls?

Then why not go for a complete change of routine, and spend a few days in our lovely, cosy, cottage in Pembrokeshire, where you will be surrounded by fabulous scenery, and find gorgeous beaches, within a 30 minute drive?

You’ll be able to walk off the excess of the season, and blow the cobwebs away, and then return to the cottage for hot chocolate, or a nice glass of wine in front of the wood burning stove.

We’ll even supply and decorate the Christmas tree for you, if you so desire, so that all you have to do is settle in, and enjoy a Christmas that might change your way of celebrating the season for many years to come.

Interested?

Then visit our official website at www.archerscottageholidays.com for prices and to book.

Due to so many people having to reschedule holidays that they were unable to take this year due to Covid, we're already fully booked for June next year, so if you want to be sure of getting the dates you would like, can I suggest you think about booking NOW!

PLEASE NOTE: We offer a full refund should Covid mean you have to cancel, although we do require proof of your situation, because as we're sure you'll understand, we can't afford to have people drop out at the last minute, just because they've had a change of plans.

Thinking of a romantic Autumn break for the two of you? Fancy long walks in the countryside or along the Pembrokeshire coastal path with its fabulous sea views, followed by a nice hot drink on your return, while you snuggle up and watch the flames licking at the logs in the wood burning stove? Or maybe you prefer a relaxing bubble bath in a clawfoot tub where you can lay and look up at the stars through the Velux window, before finally drifting off to sleep in the comfy king size bed clothed with Egyptian cotton linens? Wake up next morning to the sounds of the birds, feeling refreshed and ready to step out on the balcony, where you can enjoy a relaxed breakfast, while taking in the peace and quiet and fantastic views of open hills and fields that surround this luxury cottage.
If this sounds like your idea of a perfect break for two, why not take a look at www.archerscottageholidays.com while we still have availability? Bookings now being taken from 9th October onwards.
