Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in St Ishmaels

The rural hamlet of St Ishmaels lies on a particularly wild stretch of Wales’s Pembrokeshire coast, near the natural harbour of Milford Haven Waterway. The parish church of St Ishmael can be found in a small valley just outside the hamlet. The parish’s south, west and east are bordered by the Haven, where the world-famous Pembrokeshire Coast Path offers breathtaking views and the chance to see rare birds and marine wildlife. There are many beautiful walks to enjoy on the doorstep of holiday cottages in St Ishmaels, such as the route to Great Castle Head Lighthouse, which stands at the southern point of Lindsway Bay, where it guides vessels safely across the shipping route between Rosslare and Pembroke Dock. On the doorstep of your holiday cottage in St Ishmaels, you will find a stunning sandy beach overlooked by towering cliffs. It is a secluded place for a swim or to watch the sunset. In the centre of the hamlet, the Brook Inn is a charming pub serving good food and local ales. There is a small grocery in neighbouring Marloes, near the sweeping crescent-shaped bay of Marloes Sands. A greater variety of shops can be found in Milford Haven, a short drive eastward along the coast from St Ishmaels.
