About Penrhiw Priory

Set within the heart of the St Davids Peninsula, with peaceful woodland trails and scenic coastal walks on the doorstep, this peaceful sanctuary has been thoughtfully restored to provide a wonderfully restorative escape. From the rugged coast of St Davids and the hidden coves of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, this wonderfully unspoilt spot is perfect for anyone looking for culture and adventure. Positioned within the tranquil Cathedral Valley, St Davids (0.5 miles), the UK's smallest city, offers a vibrant mix of independent shops, restaurants and cafes, art galleries and a handful of traditional pubs to enjoy. The historic cathedral is a must-visit when in the town. Keen cyclists can take the coast road north of St Davids to explore the coastal and country route towards Strumble Head, 17.5 miles away. Nearby Solva, 4 miles away, offers a pretty harbour and a good selection of pubs and shops to discover. Through the beautiful stained glass front door, the grand entrance hallway offers plenty of space for storing your walking boots and outdoor gear.

Take a moment to admire the stunning wooden floors and arched architecture before leading the way into the light and bright lounge. The contemporary decor of this homely space, combined with period touches including a feature wood burner, sets the scene for true relaxation. Enjoying more period features and a sophisticated finish, the dining room and handsome drawing room provide space for your whole party to relax and enjoy some local delicacies with a glass of something sparkling. Sleek and stylish, budding chefs will not be disappointed with the chic kitchen, boasting everything required to rustle up a hearty meal to begin your next adventure or a celebration feast for those special occasions. A handy utility room is a welcome addition to the ground floor. Designed with comfort in mind, featuring lovely views, TVs and contemporary en-suite facilities, each of the six bedrooms across the first and second floors promises a peaceful rest. On the first floor, you’ll find four bedrooms: a super-king-size with a magnificent four-poster bed, a king-size and two super-king-size zip-and-links which can be converted into twins on request. The second floor comprises a further two super-king-size zip-and-link bedrooms that can also be converted into twins on request. The last two bedrooms are located in The Old Coach House, outside the main building and accessed via a path through the gardens, perfect for larger parties or multi-generational groups. The Old Coach House enjoys the same homely ambience and contemporary decor as the main house. The idyllic ground-floor suite boasts a double-height lounge that opens onto a private terrace, a super-king-size zip-and-link bed (can be made up as a twin on request) and an en-suite shower room. Upstairs on the first floor, you'll find the final peaceful king-size bedroom that features a delightful en-suite shower room.

Make the most of your picturesque surroundings by relaxing on a sun lounger or enjoying a sundowner from the comfort of the large patio sun terrace. The wonderful wrap-around gardens have been beautifully landscaped, featuring a gated wildflower meadow to explore. Outside, you’ll also find private gated parking for up to eight cars.
