Converted Buttery Cottage in Pembrokeshire

Summary:

**The Old Buttery**, hosted by Salt & City Stays, is a charming three-bedroom Welsh cottage in the heart of Mathry, brimming with character and surrounded by scenic countryside.



Mathry is a peaceful village with narrow streets meandering across the hilltop, offering stunning views of the St. David’s Peninsula in many spots. The village boasts a quaint tearoom within a small antiques shop and a welcoming pub, The Farmers Arms, where you can enjoy delicious meals at lunchtime and in the evening.



The Space:

**The Old Buttery**, hosted by Salt & City Stays, combines traditional charm with modern comfort. It features slate and hardwood floors throughout, exposed beams, and a beautifully equipped kitchen with a ceramic hob, range cooker, fridge/freezer, integrated microwave, and Nespresso coffee machine. The adjacent dining area leads down a few steps to the lower living room, creating a delightful split-level open-plan space.



The living room is cosy and inviting, complete with a log burner and a welcome pack of logs to start your stay. Off the living space, a utility area offers a convenient downstairs WC, a washing machine, and a tumble dryer, as well as storage for wet coats and boots in winter or sandy shoes in summer.



Upstairs, all three bedrooms are located on the first floor. The Master King-size bedroom includes an ensuite and a door leading to the street below via charming stone steps. Two additional bedrooms—one with twin beds and another with a single—are tastefully decorated in a traditional style. The main bathroom features a bathtub with an overhead shower, providing a relaxing space after a day of exploring.



**The Old Buttery**, hosted by Salt & City Stays, is the perfect retreat for making memories in the heart of Mathry.
