Room in a home

Your own room in a home, plus access to shared spaces.
Perfect for couples or solo travellers, cosy rustic room with warm textures, natural materials and a snug, calming feel. Centrally located in St Davids, ideal for exploring the Pembrokeshire Coast Path and nearby beaches, with scenic walks from the doorstep and sandy coves a short drive away.

Enjoy the rare luxury of having our Really Wild restaurant just downstairs, offering seasonal, thoughtfully prepared menus during your stay as well as our shop selling our handmade skincare products.

The space
This cosy, recently renovated room (called Dulse) is the smallest one of three on the top floor of our recently rescued and restored, quirky, listed Art Deco building right in the middle of St Davids.

It has a comfortable King-size bed and stylish ensuite with generous walk-in shower.

Throughout the Really Wild Emporium we have recycled or repurposed as much as possible. The bed in ‘Dulse’ is hand built using timber that we have rescued from elsewhere in the building and the headboard is made from parquet flooring from another old local property.

We provide room service only and breakfast is not included, but there will be coffee and tea sachets in your room and fresh milk. Please let us know if you would prefer oat milk or dairy milk.

You will be within comfortable strolling distance of all the shops, galleries, restaurants, pubs, coffee shops and the famous historic St Davids Cathedral.

The glorious Pembrokeshire Coast Path is easily reached on foot and offers spectacular walks along the cliffs. There are also sandy beaches close by where you can enjoy all sorts of water sports, or just relax and watch everyone else…

The room includes Free WiFi, a smart TV, silent mini fridge. The King-size beds are made up with quality bed linen and bath towels are provided.

There is Central Heating throughout.

Guest access
The room is self contained and no facilities are shared.

Pretty much everything we do is about ‘The Wild’!

On the ground floor is a small intimate restaurant (open three or four evenings a week, do check as it varies!) and cafe during the day (check this for times also) and look us up on Trip Advisor.

We run foraging courses on the seashore and along the hedgerows.

There is also a shop on the first floor (with take away coffee, tea and hot chocolate 10am - 3pm daily) in the same building. This is also the home of the Really Wild Soap & Skincare Company where we make hand-made, artisan natural soap and skincare products from scratch, so hopefully you will love the mixture of scents when you enter the building. You will find samples of our soap and shampoo in your ensuite shower room.

We do not currently take dogs except assistance dogs.

Rooms are for one or two adults. No facilities for children.

There is parking close at hand at Oriel y Parc (the National Park Visitor Centre) a little further up the High Street and two other available carparks at Quickwell Hill and Merrivale.

During your stay
This working building and staff are available at all times during the day. The owners live just 5 minutes down the road in Goat Street and can respond promptly to all your needs during your stay. Their local knowledge and advice is invaluable in making the most of your stay.

Business
The Really Wild Emporium is in the High Street of St Davids. We have three very characterful rooms, all with en-suite: Dulse, Laver and Kelp. The rooms are named after local seaweeds that we forage for on the local beaches and that form key elements in the food in our restaurant and also in our beauty and skincare products.
