The cleanliness as we walked in was immaculate! As we went around the property, we were surprised to find everything we needed from washing up liquid to plenty of toilet rolls. We brought a lot of our own essentials that werenât really needed. The beds were so comfortable as well. The pictures really donât do this property justice, it is simply breathtaking. Plenty of room for everyone. The gardens were also very well maintained and spacious. We loved waking up some days and seeing cows outside on the field opposite but we never heard them when inside. We took leisurely walks around the area daily. Very peaceful and so relaxing. We were even offered to meet the calfâs just down the farm, but my little one was more interested in playing with the farmers dog called Bella lol. She was so lovely, and would greet us or join us on our walks. My little one (3 and a half), fell in love with her more than the holiday house. If you are heading out most places are only about a 15-20 minute drive to the nearest beaches. Tesco supermarket was also only about 25 minutes away. We have came home and really miss this place, which doesnât happen often! We would love to stay again, and can see why this place has been booked out for over another year!! We will be back as soon as we can! Little slice of bliss! Thank you so much!! We have made memories that will last a lifetime!

It was so clean and comfortable and had everything we needed and more. The two gardens were a huge bonus for us having two boys, they enjoyed playing fetch with Bella the lovely farm dog every day. The cottage was so quiet, it was blissful to not be able to hear anything (including cars on the road) expect from the birds tweeting. You do have to drive everywhere as there is no local pub or shop within walking distance but this didn't matter to us, and we knew this before booking. The Pembrokeshire coastline is amazing, we loved it all and had a wonderful week. We will hopefully be back to this cottage next year. Many thanks again to Gwen and family for your hospitality.

It has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Bella a super and well behaved dog from the farm next door comes to visit every day and always wants to play ball, any children will love her. We liked the place so much we have booked it again for September.
