Overall this was an excellent cottage but I think it is due for some minor refurbishment to doors and windows. Mags and Gary were very helpful and responsive.

Very clean but couldn’t turn heating down. Doors rubbing on floor. Couldn’t close shower room door. But really enjoyed.

What a great little find. It’s a bit far out if you want to be close to places like Tenby/Saundersfoot but it’s a straight run if you’re happy to be a bit further out! We had the dogs with us and it was perfect for them. Lovely garden area for them to wander around and tiled throughout so didn’t have to worry about them being wet or muddy. Utility room was fab, kept all the dogs stuff in there and was perfect to keep things separate. Kitchen was well equipped and we had a lovely welcome basket! Bed was comfortable, lovely solid furniture and reclining sofas which was great! Beautiful views! Really had a lovely week!
