Shute Cottage is a charming holiday property located in Manorbier, Pembrokeshire, nestled in a picturesque valley between the historic 12th-century Manorbier Castle and the Norman church of St. James. This unique accommodation is just a short three-minute walk from the stunning Pembrokeshire coastline, offering easy access to one of the region's most popular beaches, known for its waves and rockpools that attract surfers and families alike. The cottage is surrounded by five acres of landscaped grounds, featuring a spring-fed lake that serves as a sanctuary for local wildlife, making it an ideal retreat for nature lovers.
The property can comfortably accommodate up to eight guests, with three bedrooms in the main cottage and an additional twin-bedded chalet annexe in the garden.
