Visit to the palace, wet & windy in Whitesands and Scrabble & Pool at The Farmers! (St. Davids Pembrokeshire PART 2)


View from bathroom at Cwtch Cottages
So part 2 of my visit to St. Davids Pembrokeshire is a little late but felt an urge to update you lovely folk on this beautiful part of the country.  Now many of you maybe thinking this time of the year a little 'holiday' should only be in the sun drinking sangria and San Miguels but you really do need to consider the beauty of this country.
Our little trip to St. Davids most certainly took us out of our comfort zone and made us do things we certainly wouldn't consider doing at home and not typical of a holiday abroad.

Here is what the rest of our weekend entailed:

Cwtch Cottages 'Best Home' in St. Davids, Pembrokeshire!

Well, where do I start!  A lovely weekend in St.Davids Pembrokeshire and I must say a BIG THANKYOU to Rachael of Cwtch Cottages for letting us use her beautiful cottages.  I'm probably going to have to write a few blogs to cover our weekend, the things we did and places we went to.  Considering it was a 2 night stay and the weather was a little on the wet & windy side we still managed to squeeze in lots!

So, let's start with this cottage that I've been going on about... firstly, the word cottage has always suggested 'old fashioned' to me - which, don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with old fashioned but being a 'thirty something' a girl likes a few home luxuries, like a bit of Wi-fi to feed ye olde Facebook addiction!  How would I describe Cwtch Cottages?  Traditional, with a modern twist!  

Here is how our weekend started...

Suggestions needed for things to do in St.Davids, Pembrokeshire...

Well, I'm one very lucky lady!  I'm getting the chance to visit the lovely Cwtch Cottages in St.Davids Pembrokeshire this coming weekend.  What this means is that I get to put a pin in my map further west than I've done so before!  But here is my dilemma:  whereas before it would just be me and the other half, I now have 2 boys (7yrs & 14yrs) to keep entertained.    Therefore, sourcing out the best pubs and romantic walks ain't gonna go down so well on this trip!

So, I've consulted with Cwtch Cottage owner Rachael who has provided me with the following fab suggestions, however I'd still love to hear from those with recommendations for things to do within about 30 mins drive from St. Davids - remembering how much of a fan I am of CAKE ;-):

#NatsPhotoChallenge Days 8-15, intro to Flipagram & photo editing apps

It has to be said that I'm really quite enjoying this photo challenge as it's really prompting me to think about my social media activity every day, explore some photo editing apps and making think a little deeper about life too... very thankful for many things which I've captured in my summary for days 8-15 in this little Flipagram video (part 2)...
