About Swallows Nest, Gordy Hall
The Swallows’ Nest is a newly converted barn on a smallholding, two miles from the Atlantic Ocean. The cottage’s central location on the Dale peninsula, whilst being in the heart of the countryside, provides convenient access to beautiful beaches, offshore islands (with their wonderful wildlife) and Pembrokeshire National Park’s beautiful 186 mile coastal path.
Broad Haven (2 miles) is a popular beach for bathing, rockpooling, surfing and recreation, and has a range of places to eat, a convenient mini market and other services. Little Haven (2.4 miles) is a picturesque little cove with pubs, restaurants, a café, gift shop and a lot of charm. It is a popular spot for mackerel fishing and at low tide it is possible to walk along the beach to Broad Haven.
Swallows’ Nest is 4.5 miles to the historic market town of Haverfordwest, which now hosts a farmers’ market and other more modern services, including supermarkets, shopping centres, large leisure centre, library and golf club. It is 9 miles from the Cleddau bridge which takes you to South Pembrokeshire, with more beaches, castles and attractions.
But if you want to just relax and enjoy the cottage, you have very comfortable accommodation, outside areas to enjoy, and our small heard of alpacas to gaze at.
