About this property
A delightful, semi-detached Pembrokeshire cottage in a quiet courtyard where you will find just two other holiday cottages and the owners' home. Walk through the pretty garden archway and into the light and airy sitting room with a cosy woodburner, from which this Pembrokeshire cottage offers some lovely views over the valley. With two bedrooms, a fitted kitchen and a spacious bathroom completing the accommodation, this pretty Pembrokeshire cottage is perfect for a family holiday, all year round. Note: This cottage can be booked with Ref. 4349 and Ref. 4350 to accommodate 10.
Wolfscastle is a village in Pembrokeshire, with a pub and restaurant both serving food, a shop, and a pottery where you can watch the potter at work and purchase some Welsh gifts. There is a mill close by at the foot of the Great Treffgarne Rocks, with a scenic woodland walk, a cafe and shops selling locally produced gifts and foods. Haverfordwest, the County town, offers a great shopping day out plus the chance to explore the castle, museum and river walks during the day or the bustling night life later on.

Beautifully clean throughout. All the linen was crisp and clean, comfy beds, lovely shower, had everything we need and really liked the decor. So quiet and peaceful. They have thier own bor hole for water so it isnt full of rubbish and tastes delicious to drink. The plants and flowers all around were also so lovely and loads of fairy lights on them at night so it looked like a magic fairy land. Kids loved that. Also a laundry room and in it was loads of dvds, books, kids games and puzzles and books, this a a brilliant touch. Ours were so happy to find a Thomas train track! Great garden for kids to run about in, we were out mostly exploring the beaches. There is a great country park 8 mins away in car. It's worth a look and kids loved exploring the grounds and house. Cheryl was super nice and really help and kind as was her daughter. We loved the location too. Thank you so much and we would defo like to come back, Emily, Matt, Enki and Saoirse
