The majority of our Newport Pembrokeshire holiday cottages are on the town side of the river, however we also offer a fantastic collection of holiday cottages on the beach side, some of which offer breath-taking sea views and just a short walk to the beach - Abernyfer Beach House, Dormy House & Ben Hogan.
