Westhill Cottage is a deceptively spacious single-storey country home on the southern edge of Lamphey, within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and close to Freshwater East beach. The house combines original 1830 character — pointed stone walls and a 10'4" ceiling in the living room — with a sizeable 1970s extension to provide four bedrooms and generous living space on one level. A large, secluded rear garden, paved patio and timber decking beside a boundary stream create private outdoor space suited to family life or retirement living.
Practical strengths include off-street parking for four to five cars, oil-fired central heating, UPVC double glazing and a useful back kitchen/utility. The 24'7" living room with a wood-burner is a standout social space; the kitchen/breakfast room and separate utility offer workable everyday layouts. The plot is large but manageable and the property sits in a peaceful village setting with local amenities, a railway halt and easy access to Pembroke and Tenby.
Buyers should note a few material points: services were not tested and drainage is private, which may require ongoing maintenance or future upgrade. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal average — relevant if you work from home. The cottage dates to 1830 with a later extension; while character is strong, some updating and cosmetic refurbishment will be needed to modernise kitchens, bathrooms and interior finishes for contemporary standards.
Overall this detached bungalow will appeal to families seeking single-level living, couples downsizing who want a sizeable garden, or buyers wanting a character cottage close to the coast with scope to personalise. The location inside the National Park and the large plot offer long-term appeal; be prepared to allow budget for service checks, drainage upkeep and cosmetic improvement.
