The Space:

The Old Buttery, hosted by Salt & City Stays, combines traditional Welsh charm with modern comfort. Featuring 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, it's the perfect base for exploring North Pembrokeshire.
