The spacious open-plan living room is furnished in a contemporary style and it has a log burner. A large patio door open out onto the terrace, the ancient woodland and the bubbling stream. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped. Downstairs the floors are covered throughout with travertine tiles.

About the host
Hosted by Hafida
Syke Mill or Melin (in Welsh) was derelict until 2012. The property comes with just under half of an acre of woodland. The cottage is a stone built with thick walls and many more charm.
I fell in love with Syke Mill the moment I saw it, a "hidden gem" right in the woods with diverse bird species, trees and a woodland stream.
The property interior décor reflects my North African and French Heritage. We have French and English books for kids and adults to enjoy as well as DVD.
Syke Mill allow children to be children, to explore in a safe environment, to learn to keep themselves safe and develop outdoor skills. The cottage's location makes it ideal for exploring Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.
The property is in an ideal spot for Walking, Bird Watching, Surfing, Cycling, Coasteering or simply enjoying a swim. You might prefer to unwind on one of the two decked areas and enjoy the scenery or sit by the fire with a glass of wine. Perfect for family, friends and couples.
One of my favourite time of the year is winter, after a walk in the woodland or on the beach I look forward to a bubble bath in the large bath tub and to relax by the fire with a glass of wine. Christmas is really special at the cottage.
My children loves climbing trees, explore the woods and swing from the rope attached onto a tree. They also like to build dens and trip to Skomer Island to see baby Puffins. Now in their teenage and early adulthood we spend our time Coastering, Seals watching.
We have recently rescued a puppy called Sonnet, she is a beautiful and loves the outdoor space.
Outdoor play keeps the doctor away!
