Boasting atmospheric views of St. Brides Bay and its blazing orange sunsets, Wilder Retreats is a 24-acre rewilding site that’s beautifully positioned on the edge of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.

This is a place where nature reigns supreme. Over time the owners have diligently planted thousands of woodland trees, cultivating wildflower meadows and tirelessly re-establishing natural ponds and waterways, to allow as many species as possible to thrive.

Both an endangered species receptor site and a relocation site for rescue hedgehogs, Wilder Retreats is a true sanctuary. So when you book a stay in one of the six A-frame cabins, you’ll feel instantly relaxed and ready to immerse yourselves in the natural world.

Perfect for a romantic couple or two best friends, you’ll enjoy ever-changing views of the coastal wilderness through your cabin’s enormous glass frontage… and incredible views of the star-filled evening sky from your private wood-fired hot tub.

Your cabin itself is a haven of natural luxury, with a plush sofa and cosy blankets for snuggly evenings in by the log fire. A ready supply of board games will keep you entertained, while a welcome hamper with hot drinks, fresh milk, and locally-sourced treats will get your stay off to a delicious start.

There’s a fully-equipped kitchen for meals of every description, and a private patio with lounging furniture for post-dinner tipples, fuelled by deep conversation and tranquil sunset views.

When it’s finally time for bed, there’ll be a comfy kingsize bed waiting on the mezzanine floor, primed for a sound night’s sleep. Enjoy morning coffee to a chorus of birdsong – if you can bear it, set an early alarm to catch the most beautiful sunrises – and then freshen up in your indulgent rain shower, an invigorating way to start the day!

What will you do with the rest of it? Laze on your private lawn awhile, getting lost in a good book before savouring a tasty lunchtime picnic (there’s an honesty shop on site, and a selection of local-produce hampers and treats can be pre-ordered for your stay).

You could also choose to explore the sprawling 186-mile Pembrokeshire Coast National Park – a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – in all its mesmerising glory. Take a breezy coastal walk, grab your binoculars and watch the birds, or take a boat trip to the uninhabited Skomer Island for sublime wildlife-spotting.

Prefer shopping and historic architecture? Nearby St. Davids is the UK’s smallest city, boasting a 12th century cathedral and an array of independent galleries, shops, and restaurants to browse.

Pembrokeshire is also a confirmed culinary hotspot – the owners recommend The Griffin Inn in Dale, which serves the freshest seafood in cosy surroundings – so there’ll be plenty to whet your appetite before it’s time to head back to your cosy cabin.
