There is wonderful scenery, ancient field patterns, the ruins of the lost medieval village of Maes y Mynydd and Coetan Arthur, a Neolithic Burial Chamber (4000 BC).

Lovely cottage with great views all facilities you need. A handrail at the steps in the front garden would be a benefit. But a wonderful weekend spent in our favourite place of Wales

A very disappointing cottage that does not warrant its claimed "5 Star' rating. Just too many things that weren't as they should be - from a defective hob and a tatty bathmat to cursory cleaning and insufficient cutlery. Little evidence of any meaningful efforts by the owners to maintain the cottage to meet modern expectations. Superb views and a play area loved by our near 2-year-old save it from a "1 Star" review.

A superbly situated cottage. Great layout for the extended family. Whitesands beach and St Davids in walking distance. Good campsite shop with all you could need. Children loved visiting the animals.
