What our customers say about their holidays

  I was misled in the booking process.

  I think the details will be logged. We did manage to sort it out with some compromise but it was inconvenient I have been on many good quality self catering holidays and so my comments are an informed comparison with other cottages and companies I have stayed with.The house itself was clean and warm. It was functional but didn't have any of the extras I would expect for the price we paid. Calling the house a cottage is misleading because the house is in a modern cul de sac of standard properties.My main complaint was the size of the third bedroom, about 6 by 5 foot with a bunk bed that took all the space. As the 5th single adult I had to sleep on the top bunk because my adult children were in couples and couldn't be expected to use that room. This needs to be made much clearer on the details and reflected in the price.Lots of small things; No bin liners, washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets.Unclear rubbish disposal instructions. No details about local supermarket. Details all 2015. Home owner contacted me directly with a list of "rules" about 2 weeks before our visit. Some were irrelevant, like dog instructions. Also instructed us to strip the beds which I decided was unreasonable given the amount we were paying. The location was good although I was disappointed we didn't have sea view. I asked for a sea view on the Sykes cottage selection page The house is a 20 minute walk down/up hill into town which needs to be made clear. We did have a good holiday and I would return to Saundersfoot and Tenby. I would not go back to the house since I dont believe it was value for money.

  We had such a lovely stay at Stable Cottage.

  We absolutely loved it. It was spotlessly clean, comfortable and peaceful. The downstairs area was open and spacious, with a lovely kitchen, dining and lounge area with open fire (the only addition I would suggest would be some tools for the fire and maybe a fire guard), then upstairs were two lovely bedrooms with very comfortable beds and bed linen, plus a great little ensuite and lovely separate family bathroom, which were all lovely and warm and clean. Everything smelt so clean too, considering this is a dog friendly property. Outside there is a lovely enclosed gravelled courtyard with furniture, much bigger than it looks in the photos. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't good enough for us to sit outside, but it was perfect for our two dogs and would be a fantastic outdoor space when the weather is better. Templeton is a lovely little village and so well positioned for exploring all that wonderful Pembrokeshire has to offer, including Narberth, which is only about 5 minutes up the road and has some lovely unique gift shops and quality food shops too. Tim, the owner, was so welcoming and lovely and helpful. We really couldn't recommend highly enough and hope to be back one day soon. Thank you Tim and Julianna for such lovely stays.

  Cottage was very nice but there were a few things that could be improved: 1.

  Lots of rubbish & recycling not collected ; Plastic containers & bottles strewn round the garden along with paper which we picked up. There was also lots of wine & glass bottles on the floor falling out of 2 plastic bags. There was 2 bags of rubbish in the general rubbish bin also. We did inform the owner. 2. There were cats everywhere - on the doorstep, in the back garden & also lying on our car out the front. 3. We came back one day & there was a van parked in our space no 5 however after a short while it was moved. 4. The king size bed was really uncomfortable as it sunk when we got in - it gave us no support so resulted in giving us back ache the next day. The pillows were too thin so gave us neck ache too. Suggest a brand new mattress & decent pillows are required. The holiday on the whole was ok and the cottage was situated close to amenities and a great base to start from when visiting other areas.

  We had a lovely holiday.

  Weather was mixed but didn’t stop us from getting out and enjoying wonderful scenery. The cottage was spacious, clean and comfortable. It had all the facilities you need. Some minor improvements would help. The stair gate was an excellent idea but the lack of a catch of any sort made it unusable. The washing machine wouldn’t work, and the advertised wood burning stove wasn’t there. That was a shame as it was the deciding factor in choosing stables cottage - so it was disappointing that we hadn’t been told in advance that it had been removed. We had a friendly welcome from the owners and the cottage was perfectly sited very close to a great pub. A good choice for a family holiday.

  An idyllic location! With a stunning sandy beach for your back garden and only a short flat walk into Saundersfoot, it is simply the most amazing place to stay. We felt so spoilt by having the beach on our doorstep and an amazing view of the ever changing sea. Set over 3 floors to make the most of the views, the interior is a bit quirky and dated, but it doesn't matter when its so spotlessly clean, well equipped and comfortable. Parking for 2 cars is a great bonus as well. A complete first for our family, we booked to go back next year before we'd even left! No-one wanted to our holiday to end and to have to leave the house and that view. It is such a happy feel good place.
