Rosemoor Past & Present Formerly the country estate of a wealthy Victorian gentleman, Rosemoor is now an ideal retreat to experience the peace and tranquillity of Pembrokeshire.The Summers family who built Rosemoor over the course of the nineteenth century, had an eye for choosing the best location for their estate's Main House. Their insight into how best to enjoy the countryside around them still allows our guests to take in the beauty and refreshment which this lovely unspoilt corner of Britain has to offer.

Where we are Rosemoor is situated within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park in the tiny village of Walwyn's Castle. The village is a collection of scattered farms and cottages and an old Norman church, with no pub or shop; its only industry the old quarry across the valley. It is within walking distance
(just over two miles) of the coast of St. Bride's Bay and its safe, sandy beaches.Rosemoor is equidistant to Haverfordwest, the old county town, and the popular seaside village of Dale, both approximately 6 miles away. (Back to Top) (Map of the Area)
Nature Galore! Rosemoor is ideally located for those who want to enjoy Pembrokeshire's wildlife; be it land- sea- or island-based. Literally on your cottage's doorstep you will find the Rosemoor Nature Reserve, covering 24 acres with a 5½ acre lake, home to badgers, otters, a great many species of birds and quite a number of rare plants.  The lanes and fields surrounding Rosemoor are a botanist's delight as well, as are the grounds immediately surrounding your cottage: provided you time your visit well you will find orchids there which are hard to find elsewhere in the UK.

A Welcome Place for AllWe offer accomodation for all, including those who are less mobile than they would want to be. Rose Cottage, First Cottage and the Coach House all have accommodation on one floor, with the entrance within a single step from car access. Apple Cottage is especially adapted for wheelchair-bound guests.
If a pet is part of your family, you don't have to look elsewhere for your holiday accommodation: in all but three of our cottages a (one) well-behaved household pet is a welcome guest. A Place for All Seasons We are open all year round, and are often asked when is the best time to visit Pembrokeshire. From the seasons, perhaps Spring stands out for its dry and sunny weather and its profusion of wild flowers, but all other seasons have their attractions as well. In Summer the beaches come into their own; some are among the best in Britain. In the Autumn we tend to get the walkers and ramblers and those who like to have a look at the baby seals in the coves at Deer Park nearby. Winters are generally mild, but we do get the odd spell of frost!(Back to Top) |

From each of Rosemoor's 9 warm and comfortable cottages you will have wide vistas of the fields and the valley surrounding us. These will add to the sensation of spaciousness Rosemoor itself will give you; our large grounds, well away from public roads, make an ideal safe playground for children of any age, giving you peace of mind as well as body. 
We live on the premises and look after the cottages ourselves, so that we can not only ensure their cleanliness but also attend to any small problem that may arise during your stay. Relieved of fret, you will be able to unwind and benefit from a real holiday.
