About this property

Architect Designed Eco House In A Secluded Littlehaven Private Lane

Summerhaven is a stunning contemporary holiday home built to the highest standards and minutes from the charming village of Littlehaven, Pembrokeshire. Completed in 2013 this architect designed eco-house is reached by 49 steps up through its private, wooded hill-side garden. The house is designed to make the most of the superb view over a quiet wooded valley with a glass wall opening onto the railed balcony. Unwind and relax in the light, open plan living space and explore beautiful Pembrokeshire from this perfectly positioned village location. Little Haven offers a range of quality pubs, restaurants and cafes and neighbouring Broad Haven has a small general store, beach shops and a surf hire centre. Both Havens communities welcome visitors with seasonal events, art exhibitions and festivals to enjoy. Whether you want to enjoy the summer sandcastle competition or join the bracing New Years Day swim there is always something interesting to do and see. Pembrokeshire is a beautiful, unspoilt county with many attractions. Walkers can access the stunning coastal path from the village. All the water sports are available locally including some of the very best surfing beaches. Visitors will find a huge choice of outdoor activities including horse riding, golf, climbing, coasteering and diving.
Pembrokeshire are very strict about waste disposal and recycling. We have provided lots of guidance and labelled containers and we ask guests to help us meet the statutory requirements.

Relaxing beautiful stay
Amazing views from a spacious and well furnished house. It was a home from home - beds soooo comfortable and everything we needed. Little Haven is a 2 minute walk away and has a great beach with 3 lovely pubs. All in all a fabulous place to stay.

Beautiful house in perfect location.
Great week’s holiday in this beautiful house. Very peaceful and private, loved listening to the birds in all the surrounding vegetation. Everything in the house was to a very high standard- furnishings, beds white goods. Great TV for men to watch the football! A perfect getaway from city life. We will be back! Thank you.

Great find
This lovely eco house is in a perfect location to visit Pembrokeshire. The house is in very good order, is well equipped and its 'tree top' location makes it that extra bit special. We were just four adults but it would be perfect for six people as it has three good sizes bedrooms. The location is perfect, if you can manage the 47 steps to the house, it is a very short walk to the village which has a number restaurants, pubs and a café. We would recommend.

Tree House Feel
We enjoyed our stay in this lovely house which, owing to the location felt like a tree house. Well equipped and comfortable. Written instructions as well as post code would make finding the location easier.

Beautiful house in the trees, just up from the beach.
This is a lovely place to stay. The house is just as good as you see in the pictures. Morning sunlight streams through the windows. The small balcony is beautiful for breakfast. We cycle and run. There are beautiful trails from the door. It’s all that we hoped for. Clive was very responsive and helpful.

New Year Break
Exceptional property with quality fittings and fixtures making it feel like a real home from home. Despite the beautiful village being a stone's throw away, we actually found it difficult to get out at times due the comfort of the house and with the huge windows and views, we felt like we were getting a taste of the outside without actually having to venture out!!!This was our second stay here and it will always be our first choice of property down West for future visits.

Convenient and quiet
A short stroll from Little Haven, and not much of a walk (along the beach) to Broad Haven - we were able to pop down to the beach pretty impulsively, depending on the start of surf and tide. The property description is very clear about the steps up to the house, so unless you're confident in being able to handle these, then this isn't the place for you. The large open plan main room is very comfortable, with lots of room and a pleasant aspect out onto the trees that surround the property. Bedrooms are reasonably-sized and all beds were very comfortable. We had a great week, and would definitely use Summerhaven again.

Wonderfull house!
Our stay in Summerhaven was lovely. The house is super, clean, very light and lots of space. The area is just wonderfull. Those stairs are a good excercise every day, but I can imagine not very easy for some people. Our respect for Clive and Sheila for letting us stay in their beautiful house!

Post Christmas get away
Property was warm and welcoming Little Haven is totally unspoilt, perfect if you just want to 'stand and stare' Perhaps some lighting on the outside stairs is needed ( we had to use our phones to see) Really enjoyed walking at Marloes and the food at Runwayskiln The area is not for those who need to be entertained but it was perfect for us

comfortable and peaceful house near the sea
Summerhaven is in a quiet secluded spot just up the road from Little Haven beach. It suited our 3 generational group well although the weather could have been better! The house was great and we had such fun on the beaches and in the waves and rockpools. Thanks to the owner for dealing with the internet(although the connection didn`t last for long unfortunately). a small niggle was the total lack of any dishwasher tablets. luckily our daughter brought some with her....we don't have a dishwasher ourselves. We will remember fondly our time in Little Haven...down memory lane for some of us and a first introduction for the younger members of the family...Maybe they'll be back in future years.

We had a great time
The house is unusual though very comfortable and practical, we all loved staying there. However, the promised internet connection was not functional all week which was very disappointing as the smart tv could not be used as expected. Also the steps up to the house are poorly maintained with holes causing trip hazards and thick vegetation growing across. The location is perfect, which made for a great holiday.

enjoyable stay at Summerhaven
Overall really good- beautiful location and spacious and bright accommodation. Brilliant and unique design of house. Very clean. Arrived without towels which was a problem. Apparently it was in the info provided but thought it was a bit tight not to provide despite owner saying they had lost some. Also need bigger and more chopping boards for preparing meals for 6. No recycling arrangements for bottles so we ended up bringing them home . we would definitely stay again , but with towels and chopping boards !

Modern, spacious two storey house. Access up 48 steep steps so be warned! French windows and balcony caught morning sunshine trees and vegetation provided plenty of shade. Wake to the sounds of magpies. Very private and not overlooked and just a few minutes walk down to the sea.

Excellent location for the coastal path
We really loved this property which was very well equipped and with wonderful coastline on the doorstep. Don’t be put off by the steps they aren’t as bad as they look even after a days walking the views are worth it. The house is beautifully designed with very high quality furniture providing a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

About the host

Hosted by Clive Anstey

Host profile image
Our family have been holidaying in Pembrokeshire for over 10 years and never tire of the beauty, variety and peace to be found here. It is truly an undiscovered gem where you can escape to the golden sandy beaches along quiet roads and yet all is within easy reach of the M4.

As our children have grown they have graduated from exploring rock pools to enjoying the adrenalin rush of coasteering, surfing, riding and climbing. There really is something for everyone here.

Why they chose this property

Summerhaven was designed and built on the site of a cedarwood chalet by local architects and building contractors and we completed our 'dream project' late in 2013. Summerhaven is now our 'home from home' and we are delighted to invite other families to come and discover the unspoilt and beautiful county of Pembrokeshire.

What makes this property unique

Little Haven is beautifully placed to explore Pembrokeshire. Nestled in the corner of St Brides's bay you have easy access to the whole county, including the matchless coastal path, whilst staying in the welcoming and well appointed village. Summerhaven offers a unique contemporary living space to relax in at the end of a busy day exploring.
