Dinas Island Cottage is praised for its superb location, with proximity to unspoilt beaches and a peaceful setting. Guests appreciate the friendly hosts and the cottage's potential as a base for exploring the area. While the charm of the working farm and the rural experience are noted, guests also mention that the property could benefit from updates and a thorough cleaning.
Several reviews mention the need for a deep clean, with specific references to a surface clean condition, mould, and leftover food in appliances, indicating that cleanliness is below expectations.
The location is consistently lauded for its beauty and proximity to beaches and coastal paths, making it an ideal spot for a peaceful retreat and exploration of the local area.
Mixed feedback on comfort, with some guests finding the beds soft and warm, while others note the need for new sofas and the presence of collapsed seating, suggesting moderate comfort levels.
Guests report outdated fixtures and fittings, a need for maintenance on taps and showers, and issues with hot water supply. The presence of internet and provided towels are positives, but overall, facilities require attention.
Unfortunately we’ve been unable assess this category comprehensively enough based on the reviews we’ve received from guests about this property.
This semi-detached National Trust-owned farmhouse is situated in a sheltered position on Dinas Island (actually a prominent headland) and is part of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. The farmhouse offers peace, seclusion and is perfectly located on a working sheep farm in north Pembrokeshire.
The traditional slate front opens into a large hallway that leads you through to the comfortable lounge with log burning stove. As you continue you will find the well-equipped original farm kitchen with its traditional low open beamed ceiling.
On the second floor you will find one master double bedroom, a bunk bedroom and the family bathroom with suite of bath, shower, WC and wash hand basin all enjoying views over the pasture and farmyard.
At the front of the property you will find a patio area with garden furniture and to the side and rear you will find a large lawn area. The lawn area is shared with the owners but please note that the owners very rarely use it as they are working the farm and all pets must be kept on a lead.
A short walk from the property will grant you access to the Pembrokeshire coast path as well as Pwllgwaelod and Cwm yr Eglwys beaches. A short drive will bring you to Dinas Cross village and Newport where you will find a selection of pubs, shops, galleries and eateries.
Newport is a beautiful coastal town in Pembrokeshire, south west Wales lying on the River Nevern with a selection of shops, pubs, tea rooms, plus an excellent golf course overlooking the sea as well as a lovely sheltered harbour. Newport lies on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path which is renowned worldwide for its unique landscape and wonderful opportunities to go dolphin and seal spotting. Wonderful coastal walks along the path or in the nearby Preseli Hills with the ever changing scenery are a walkers dream all year round. Learn about history when you visit the mills, craft centres and castles dotted around the county or spend a day at the wonderful Castell Henllys Iron Age Fort where you can learn hands on all about living during that time. See the majestic Shire Horses at the Shire Horse Farm or spend relaxing days on the huge choice of beautiful sandy beaches. All year round this is a perfect location for all the family.
