About this property

MILL COTTAGE - a cosy rural cottage with private fishing lake

Mill Cottage at Castle-Ely-Mill, is our cosy semi-detached stone cottage which was part of the original medieval watermill and has views out across the private fishing lake.

This Cottage sleeps 2 in a double bedroom, with en-suite shower room. The open plan living/dining/kitchen has everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Mill Cottage is one of 3 self catering cottages located on the Pembrokeshire/Carmarthenshire border, mid way between Red Roses and Llanteg. With four and half acres of landscaped grounds and wonderful lakeside views, a stay here offers a peaceful retreat whilst also being within easy access of the many beaches and all that the area has to offer.

A great base for exploring

We thoroughly enjoyed our week here. A great base for easy access to Amroth, Saundersfoot, Tenby, Bosherston or further afield to St. David's. Superb unspoilt seascapes to view and great walks. The accommodation was clean and well stocked for self catering and is set on the edge of a small well maintained lake. Very welcoming hosts who provided great customer service. We are very pleased to recommend this accommodation.

Fabulous rural cottage.

Well-appointed one-bedroom cottage adjoining the main house. The cottage was clean and quiet with a well-equipped kitchen. Situated in an easily accessible beautiful lakeside acreage location only a short drive to Tenby. A great base to explore Pembrokeshire.

About the host

Hosted by Suzie & Andrew Grimwood

Host profile image
We moved to Pembrokeshire in May 2012 after living and working in the London area for almost 20 years. We decided that it was time for a change of lifestyle so we took a leap of faith, moving from the city to the countryside – and what a great move it has been! We live on site in the converted watermill with our 2 dogs.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property after seeing it on the internet. Although we viewed a number of other properties in the area which also offered holiday let opportunities, none lived up to Castle Ely Mill. We were captivated by the main house, the holiday let cottages, the grounds and the location. There is so much to do and see within a short drive of here – we are sure that you will love it as much as we do.
