Park House

28 New Street, St Davids

Park House is ideally located for families as it is within a stones-throw of the supermarket, Post Office, and a well equipped children’s play park. It is close to local beaches: one mile from Caerfai Bay (a beautiful secluded and safe cove), and two miles from Whitesands Bay (a long sandy beach renowned for surfing). The house was built in the 19th century of the same purple Caerfai sandstone used in the Cathedral. It is cosy and welcoming but has been imaginatively renovated on three levels, and tastefully furnished. Stone walls have been exposed or painted white and the floors are stripped boards with rugs. It has a spacious feel, with areas for entertaining, watching TV, or quiet reading. Full gas-fired central heating and a multi-fuel stove in the sitting room make it warm on the coldest days. 

Our aim is that you feel welcomed and at home.  We have done our utmost to ensure that the house is well decorated, with fixtures and fittings that make it a home rather than just a temporary bolt-hole. It should be cleaned to a high standard by our caretaker.

When you arrive there is tea, coffee, milk and sugar, and for later a bottle of Cava. The house should be warm and the fire ready to light. We supply basics as a starter: dishwasher tablets, clothes washing tablets, washing liquid, and general cleaning products. Hand, bath towels and bath mats are included in the price. There are hair dryers in both first floor bedrooms. A highchair and cot are available on request.

Garden

The garden is approximately thirty yards from the house, accessed via a right of way across our neighbour’s garden. It is completely secluded, laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs and enclosed with a gate. There is a patio with a table and chairs, parasol and barbecue.
