Cabinet approval has been received to enter into contract with Persimmon Homes Ltd for 21 affordable homes on the Sandy Hill site in Saundersfoot.

The agreement will see 12 x 1 bedroom flats, 6 x 2 bedroom houses, and 3 x 3 bedroom homes built and transferred to Pembrokeshire County Council as part of the planning obligation for the site.

The site is currently under construction with a small number of open market units expected to be delivered in 2025/26.

Cabinet Member for Housing Cllr Michelle Bateman said: “We’re delighted to be going into partnership with Persimmon, taking on 21 new homes here at Ger y Môr, helping deliver secure homes for local people in Pembrokeshire.

“The purchase of these properties as social housing is one of a range of affordable housing options we are offering to support families and individuals with diverse housing needs. The purchases at Ger y Môr reflects the Council’s commitment to providing local affordable homes and revitalising our local communities.”

The Local Member for Saundersfoot, Cllr Chris Williams, added: “Persimmon has shown itself to be a truly local developer that has properly engaged with the Saundersfoot community on this development, and it is hugely positive that they will be helping local people on the housing waiting list by partnering with the Council through this agreement.”
