Where will I stay?
Our accommodation consists of a spacious lodge, awarded a 3* in our last Wales Tourist Board inspection, sleeping up to 30 people. It is set in 3 acres of land a beautiful location with just a 1 mile walk through National Trust woodland to our local beach which is stunning, unspoilt, and a place where seals sometimes sleep! Our comfy bedrooms sleep between 2 and 8 people and there is full central heating throughout. There are 2 lounges with wood burning stoves, a large 'sun room' (conservatory) with pool table and music, and a well-stocked bar for the use of our guests. We serve delicious home cooked meals, and tea, coffee and cold drinks are available to help yourself to at all times. Our food is home cooked, wholesome and delicious! There is a patio area perfect for warm summer evenings or for watching the beautiful sunsets or you can enjoy beers around a blazing bonfire in our sheltered garden. Since the lodge is exclusive to the group that is staying, there is a real atmosphere of 'homeliness' and comfort, choose to 'party' or 'relax' - the lodge is big enough to accommodate both! If you want to sample the local village pub, in the small and friendly hill top village of Mathry, it's just short walk from the lodge and will give you a real taste of rural Welsh life. From here you can look out over the Preseli Hills the source of the 'bluestone' of Stonehenge.
Your stay at Preseli Venture will be co-ordinated by our hospitality manager who will be involved with your initial enquiry, attending to every detail during your stay with us, right through to waving you goodbye!
