Holiday getaway, log burner, romantic retreat

Be close to nature with this base to explore beautiful North Pembrokeshire, or just relax with the views or stargaze by the fire.
Damson Cabin in the old orchard, with its own private space and decking area. Set on a smallholding south facing towards the beautiful Preseli mountains.
Offering comfort whilst being an alternative off grid holiday, the low impact accredited site is a mixture of short grass and wild areas, attracting lots of birds, bats, and other wildlife, to the delight of our visitors. This year a family of sparrows nested in the eaves of Damson’s porch, and a resident owl is regularly spotted.
Popular destination throughout the year, there’s lots of outdoor and indoor activities closeby, within easy reach of beaches, coastal paths, woodlands, or indoor music, theatre, art and crafts.
Enjoy an autumn/winter break settling in front of the log burner at night, also with no neighbours there is little light pollution so star gazing is recommended. Ideal for Christmas breaks and valentine celebrations. Early summer near the coast is milder, warmer weather often with sunny days, so a great chance to see the snowdrops, then daffodils and swathes of bluebells in our wooded path.
This off grid retreat has no mains electric or water, it does have its own electric shower just down a small pathway. There is also LED lighting in the kitchen shed and toilet from a solar system.

Loved every moment:)))
Spend a few days with kids 12 and 9. At first they complained especially about the outside toilet :) they cried when we were leaving that they want to stay. We have a great time collecting firewood, lighting a bomb every night. on the last morning a little robin flew into our cabin. It was amazing to be able to help him to get out. Great place to slow down, and enjoy every moment.

Lovely and peaceful stay
On arrival I was met by Jane. Her dog Nell played with my dog which was lovely. The cabin was comfortable and roomy. It was lovely to be able to sit outside and relax and unwind. The little kitchen was a nice place to prepare food. If you are looking for a place to unwind and get away from the hustle bustle of daily life I can highly recommend it.

Chilled glamping secluded retreat
Great location, very pleasant hosts, safe & secure. A fantastic stay if you want to escape the busy noisy rat race to recharge your batteries. Get back to wildlife. Beautiful log fire to set the evening off or a fire outside with a few drinks just listening to the birds and looking at the stars. If you looking for peace and quiet with the one you love then this is definitely the place to go.

I was supposed to stay 5 nights I stayed 1 night and left as the place was filthy and the smell !!
I didn't see the owner in the morning so couldn't ask for a refund, I hope you can help as I booked somewhere else instead!
