Cute stone cottage in a sleepy Pembrokeshire village could be your perfect rural retreat

In a quiet village in the Pembrokeshire countryside, about two miles from the coast, there hides the most charming of one-bed stone cottages that looks like something out of a fairy tale.

And although not quite as old as the land that surrounds it, this cottage is situated somewhere that has been considered a very special place to call home for thousands of years - it even claims to be one of the oldest settlements in the county.

Website Visit Pembrokeshire states that the village of Mathry, sitting at the top of a hill, has its roots in the Iron Age, when the village would then have been a defensive fort, positioned perfectly for early sightings of any enemy approach.
