Puffin Cottage Holidays presents The Cwtch – a beautifully styled boutique holiday apartment in the peaceful village of Penally. Occupying an elevated position, it boasts sweeping views across rolling countryside, the magnificent Pembrokeshire coastline and out towards the serene Caldey Island.

Set within a lovingly restored 19th-century building of just seven properties, The Cwtch combines the character of its heritage with a high-quality, modern finish to create a truly welcoming coastal retreat.

The picturesque village of Penally is a haven of tranquillity, offering a village store, two cosy pubs and two excellent restaurants – including the renowned Rhosyn at Penally Abbey, just a two-minute stroll away and proudly featured in the Michelin Guide.

From your doorstep, it’s just a 10-minute downhill walk to the Blue Flag South Beach, with the vibrant seaside town of Tenby a pleasant 25-minute walk along the coast. In the summer months, boat trips depart daily from Tenby harbour, and many of Pembrokeshire’s best attractions – including Folly Farm, Heatherton and Manor House Wildlife Park – are within easy reach.

Reviews from our guests

We were really happy with our stay.

puffin star 1 puffin star 2 puffin star 3 puffin star 4 puffin star 5

The Cwtch was really comfortable, with a really well equipped kitchen and bathrooms. Everything worked well and it is in the most lovely spot. We were really happy with our stay - as you might imagine it was for the Ironman - and it was great to have somewhere comfortable and well equipped for our visit.

We felt very much at home

Very nice apartment with a cute living room and a kitchen that has everything you need. We felt very much at home. The view from the deck is very nice and the beach is at walking distance - with a bit of a climb to get back home.

Beautiful Apartment

puffin star 1 puffin star 2 puffin star 3 puffin star 4 puffin star 5

Beautiful apartment- exactly like the photos..Loved the the homeliness of the place.Fabulous kitchen with everything you required.Comfy bed.Lovely welcome gifts of wine,biscuits & milk- thank you. The views were beautiful with a very pleasant walk along the beach into Tenby.Didn't need to use the car at all. Only minor negatives - parking abit tight if you have a larger car given the nature of the area. Can hear people moving about upstairs in above apartment,fortunately,this was only on our last night so did not spoil our stay.

Spotlessly clean immaculately presented accommodation. Good quality bed linen, comfortable mattresses and well equipped kitchen. Lovely that we were left wine, biscuits, tea, coffee and milk, these little touches make all the difference. A very comfortable stay and we would love to return.

Lovely quiet location

puffin star 1 puffin star 2 puffin star 3 puffin star 4 puffin star 5

We’ve just returned from a lovely weekend at The Cwtch. The apartment was exactly like the pictures, very comfortable, clean and well equipped and in a lovely quiet location . We were able to walk to the beautiful dog friendly beach at Penally and along to Tenby which was about 30 minutes. Our sons surfed at Manorbier and Fresh Water West which were a short drive away and were also stunning. There’s a pub that we stopped in for a quick pint at the bottom of the hill. We didn’t eat there, so can’t comment on the food. A lovely place that we’d definitely return to.

Easter break 2024

puffin star 1 puffin star 2 puffin star 3 puffin star 4 puffin star 5

A lovely Easter break in Penally. We stayed in The Cwtch, which is one of a number of holiday let's within The Mount. Set of the hillside at the top of the village, there road to the property is very steep/narrow but the views are worth it! The Cwtch had everything you would need, including a washing machine. Under-floor heating meant you were never cold and this was topped off by the log burner to get cosy in the evening. Would definitely recommend!

Very Cosy!

puffin star 1 puffin star 2 puffin star 3 puffin star 4 puffin star 5

The Cwtch is very cosy, especially with the lovely log burner and comfortable seating. Kitchen is well equipped. Everything appears well thought out and is easy to live in and keep clean. Particularly loved the window seat with far reaching views over the countryside to the cliffs. Bed was very comfortable, and shower was heaven. Excellent communication by the owner. Would definitely stay again.

Warm & Cosy

puffin star 1 puffin star 2 puffin star 3 puffin star 4 puffin star 5

We stayed for a week in February 2023 & everything was great. The flat was equipped with everything we needed, very clean & comfortable. It was warm & cosy with underfloor heating. Did not need to light the fire! Amazing views & great location for the beach, coastal path & the town of Tenby. The shared garden is not enclosed or fenced, something to be aware of if you have dogs that wander! We could hear people in the flat above moving about but it didn't bother us too much. All in all a fab holiday!

What a perfect little bolt hole

puffin star 1 puffin star 2 puffin star 3 puffin star 4 puffin star 5

What a perfect little bolt hole with everything needed and more. The hosts had left some lovely little treats and everything felt well thought out and it was like a home from home. I did find I had to duck quite a bit but it added to the charm. I definitely would recommend it.

Just returned from a beautiful week at the Cwtch. Perfect accommodation with everything you could possibly need plus lots of thoughtful little touches. Would recommend to anyone as a wonderful base from which to explore Pembrokeshire or as an ideal bolthole to put your feet up and relax.

Long Weekend Away

puffin star 1 puffin star 2 puffin star 3 puffin star 4 puffin star 5

We stayed at The Cwtch for a long weekend anniversary break. What a gorgeous house! The attention to detail and high quality fixtures and fittings give this home a boutique feel throughout. The owner has thought of everything and even left us a bottle of bubbly, an anniversary card and some dog treats! We walked to Tenby (about a 30 minute stroll) along beautiful Penally beach and then easily got the bus back. Highly recommend The Cwtch and will be booking again.
