Guests say
Cliff Cottage offers guests a charming and peaceful retreat with breathtaking views and a superb location for exploring Dale and the Pembrokeshire coast. The cottage is well-equipped for a comfortable stay, with easy access to local walks and amenities. While some guests noted areas for improvement such as cleanliness, maintenance, and comfort, the majority appreciated the tranquil setting, beautiful scenery, and convenience for sightseeing. The property is particularly suited for couples seeking relaxation and nature.
Several guests found the cottage clean and tidy, but there were notable concerns about dog hair, lingering odours, and, in some cases, the need to clean upon arrival. Cleanliness appears inconsistent and could benefit from more attention.
The location is widely praised for its stunning views, proximity to the village and coast path, and peaceful atmosphere. Guests consistently highlight the setting as a major strength of the property.
Most guests found the cottage comfortable, especially the bed and en suite. However, some mentioned issues with the seating, bedroom space, and noise from the adjoining property, suggesting room for improvement.
The cottage is generally well-equipped, with a good kitchen, dishwasher, and washing machine. Some guests noted missing items, maintenance issues (such as uneven steps and patio flags), and a dated feel, indicating that facilities and upkeep could be enhanced.
There are no mentions of welcome gifts or extra thoughtful touches in the reviews, so a score cannot be provided for this category.

Cliff cottage had stunning views but the cottage in general was of a very poor standard. When we arrived the property was not clean & we had to clean before we could unpack ! The cottage needs a lot more attention to detail & an update. A comfy sofa & a bigger tv would also help., to make your stay more comfortable. Been to a lot of cottages & this was of a very poor standard.

It was a beautiful, location very pretty. We would definitely go back again for the location, but, as they allow dogs in, which I don’t blame them at all, it did smell of dog and there was a lot of dog hairs still around. I had to hoover them up and also buy fabreeze to try to get rid of the smell. They need to address the cleaners.

Had a lovely time while were there exploring the area, particularly super from Dale to Monk Haven. Sadly the cottage had no facilities to to hang or dry wet walking gear. The mats were a trip hazzard and we moved them out of the way while we were there. The seating , two chairs were not the most comfortable and a sofa and comfy chair would make the place more comfortable and relaxing.
