Y Glowty is a spacious and comfortable cottage in a peaceful village setting, praised for its relaxing atmosphere, friendly hosts, and excellent hot tub. Guests appreciated the well-equipped accommodation and thoughtful touches, making it a great base for exploring the area. While most found the property clean and welcoming, a few noted minor maintenance and cleanliness issues. The location offers easy access to local amenities and attractions, though some wished it was closer to the coast. Overall, guests enjoyed their stay and would recommend or return.
Most guests found the cottage clean and tidy, with several specifically mentioning cleanliness on arrival. However, a few reviews noted issues such as unclean kitchen cupboards and one report of hot tub hygiene concerns, which slightly lowers the score.
The cottage is situated in a quiet, friendly village with local amenities nearby and is a good base for exploring Pembrokeshire. Some guests wished it was closer to the coast or Tenby, but overall the location was well received.
Guests consistently described the property as spacious, comfortable, and well-suited for families and dogs. The beds and bathrooms were praised, and the peaceful setting contributed to a relaxing stay.
The hot tub was a highlight for many, and the cottage was generally well-equipped. Some minor issues were mentioned, such as missing items (toilet paper, sponge), kitchen maintenance, and steps not being child-friendly, but these did not detract significantly from the overall experience.

The cottage was spacious for 4 adults and two children . It was clean , the welcome pack was appreciated and the hot tub had been turned on. We used it as a base for visiting Skomer , New Quay and Pembroke all about 40 minutes drive

Had a lovely stay this week at Y Glowty. The house was comfortable and spacious. We were greeted with a welcome package of bread, milk, butter and Welsh cakes. The hot tub was clean. When we arrived, we didn’t have any towels left, however a quick message to the owner and she brought them round straight away. In terms of amenities close by, there was a shop and cafe (we didn’t use as not dog friendly), other wise we drove further a field. During our time we visited the country park, folley farm, Pembroke castle, freshwater east beach and Tenby. On the way home we stopped in Aberystwyth and saw dolphins surfacing on the beach. We also had a lovely meal in the next village in a pub called tafayn sinc which was quality food and a must see pub. Would visit again and would recommend to others.
