John and Myfanwy Piper discovered Pembrokeshire first in the 1930s and in 1962 they bought a ruined cottage and a studio near Garn Fawr. The studio was set right at the foothills of these crags and served as an excellent space for retreating to his painting for Piper when in Wales. Piper's Welsh landscapes are among his most strongest works as they record the sheer power of the elements in the vast and barren landscape.
