Y Stiwdio 5 min walk to cove
A rare opportunity to be in an exceptionally beautiful, historic and sacred location by the ocean.

Your guide to Solva

All About Solva

The Welsh seaside town of Solva, nestled in the protective shelter of St Brides Bay, has long been a commercial maritime port and trading centre. These days, the village primarily serves recreational boaters, who can be found trolling up and down the area's rugged coastline. Solva’s quayside strip, lined with 18th-century limekilns, provides stunning vistas overlooking the harbour waters. Brightly coloured, pastel-washed buildings fill the town centre, housing art galleries, streetside cafes, and restaurants serving fresh crab and other seafood.

Solva is also recognized for its plethora of outdoor recreational opportunities, since it’s close to coastal waters, Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, and the shrubby, rolling Welsh landscape. After spending some time exploring the bright and alluring coastal community, you may want to head into the surrounding countryside and down to the coast for hiking, kayaking, sailing, even surfing.


The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Solva

Solva's oceanic climate is temperate and mild throughout the year. The weather conditions cycle from summer’s pleasantly warm temperatures to the chill of winter, which rarely dips below the freezing point. Regardless of the season, Solva sees steady rain year-round, and the wintertime tends to get almost double the volume of rainfall compared to the summer. For weather conditions most conducive to exploring the town and adventuring in the nearby national parks, consider looking for holiday cottages in Solva from June to September. This time of year is when temperatures will be warmest, the days will be sunny, and there will be the least chance of rain interrupting the fun. These warmer months also tend to hold many of the area's festivals and events, including a three-day event celebrating art, music, and literature in late July.


Top things to do in Solva

Pembrokeshire Coast Path

Hundreds of kilometres of walking paths and trails trace the undulating Welsh coastline from Amroth to St Dogmaels, with Solva somewhere in the middle. Sections of the trail surrounding Solva will bring you past stark, jagged cliffs rising from the sea and over rolling, wildflower-covered hills. You can spend hours wandering around these isolated coasts, or simply bring a picnic and enjoy a sunset on the outskirts of town.

Crabbing

Commercial crabbing operations are prevalent throughout the region — the waters surrounding Solva teem with marine life, and crabbing from the shore is a favourite pastime of locals and travellers. You can easily rent the necessary gear from one of the village’s many outdoor shops. Toss a line in, and enjoy a pleasant afternoon by the waterside.

Neolithic Tombs

Pembrokeshire is renowned for its abundance of Neolithic-era burial chambers scattered about the countryside. Adventurous travellers will find the upright stone structures that characteristically mark these burial sites among Solva's surrounding farms and rural regions; you can find maps to some of the major sites online.
