Railway station just next to cottage but didnât hear the trains at all. Comfortable and all the essentials provided. Would definitely stay again.

Good beaches closeby and you can walk to Saundersfoot. Turning right out of the drive is tight and the property is right on main road and train line at the bottom of the garden but that didnât bother us too much. The property didnât fully match the description - for example things like itâs semi detached not detached (although we didnât see or hear the neighbours once), photos had curtains but the property doesnât have them in place now, just blinds which are ineffective for summer mornings and evenings. Not sure the double room is a King size bed and as a family of four (three adults and one child) we think the space was ok for us but might be too small for a group of six. The property is well equipped but the cleanliness was poor, we had to clean a lot of the kitchen utensils before using them (took photos when we arrived) and some of the equipment has seen better days. We enjoyed our stay but didnât match the rating for us and feel the property needs some updating and maintenance.

Examples (we did take photos on arrival if these would be helpful): there was lots of food and crumbs in the cutlery drawer and the shower had lots of black mould around where the cord attached to the wall which washed away in lumps when the shower was pointed at it). There was no hairdryer available in the property and the dining chairs were not fit for purpose (the legs got caught in the thick pile rug so the chairs were difficult to manoeuvre and the swivel function added to this difficulty: desk chairs don't make good dining chairs).
