  Our stay at The Old Stable @ New House Farm Cottages was amazing Cheryl and her family were absolutely brilliant.

  We stayed for Christmas 23rd to 27th Dec 2018. We chose this cottage for the lovely countryside location and proximity to Haverfordwest where we have friends and family. The location is also brilliant for trips to some of the amazing beaches and of course City of St David. Cheryl contacted us prior to our arrival welcoming us to the forthcoming stay. She advised about arrival times and was so kind to offer to decorate the cottage for Christmas (which we thought was a lovely kind gesture) which was tastefully decorated and made our Christmas that but more special. She offered to help us with anything prior to our arrival and answered a few queries we had about towels and bedding and HDMI connections so that we could bring our NOW TV :-) On arrival we found a selection of gifts for us (including Christmas crackers which we had forgot to bring!!!) and some fresh milk in the fridge which made settling in with so much easier. We were able to bring our dogs which was a HUGE bonus for us. The farm had plenty of space for small walks so that dogs can relieve themselves (whilst kept on a lead at all times as there were other pets around and the proximity to a working farm which is well justified) and the location of the cottage is relation to some great country and coastal walks is amazing. Which of course is why we were here with our dogs to enjoy the walking. The cottage was spotlessly clean and well stocked with everything you needed including little touches like a touch for walking the dogs in the dark! There was a lovely log burning fire with a generous supply of woods and scented kindling. Additionally wood was available for a small charge. The cottage has free view with plenty of channels, but as it was Christmas we wanted to bring our NOW TV and were able to hook up to the Wifi to stream this. The facilities include a laundry which we made use of saving on washing cloths when we got home, again another great benefit was we could hit the ground running on our return. There was also a hose so that we could wash down the dogs after walks. This was an amazing place for us to stay and we look forward to booking this cottage again in 2019.

  My boyfriend and I stayed 6 nights at the old stable cottage.

  The cottage was beautiful and so cosy! We arrived and were welcomed by Cheryl who was so friendly and helpful throughout. The cottage was immaculately clean and well equipped for our stay. Special touch of leaving Welshcakes, tea/coffee/ hot chocolate, fresh milk and even treats for our two dogs who thoroughly enjoyed their stay as much as we did! We did not have to bring towels as they were provided and in the bathroom we were provided with little shampoo, conditioner, shower gel etc. We made use of the laundry room and loved the supply of games and dvds available to use in our cottage. The location of the cottage was perfect for visiting Tenby, St David’s and taking our dogs for coastal walks. The log burner was perfect in the evening after a long day walking in the cold weather. We were close to a few lovely pubs- I’d recommend ‘pub on the green’ its a 5 minute drive from the cottage. Delicious food and they do a steak Friday for such a good price. Thank you for a relaxing holiday! We hope to book again soon!

  This was a very disappointing holiday as the premises were dreadful.

  There were cobwebs and spiders everywhere so the property had not been cleaned for a long time. The fridge was dirty with shelving in door missing and seals disgusting. The oven was filthy, the Venus windows were filthy and when opened full of debris and cobwebs with moss on the windows. The furniture was frayed and the whole cottage smelt damp and musty, I had to get an air freshener to try to dissipate. There was no garden as advertised, no washing machine and the freezer was a filthy antique. We left this cottage a day early as I could not stay another night. If it had not been for our grandchildren I would have not stayed even for one night!!! I have photos should you wish me to send for evidence. Such a shame as the location of Wales is so lovely.

  On the whole, we enjoyed our stay in The Old Stable.

  The accommodation was well thought through and the host very welcoming. The accommodation was clean and well-equipped, and we also loved being situated in the middle of Pembrokeshire. However, we did unfortunately struggle to sleep well during our stay due to the lack of blinds on the skylights in the building. There was no way of blocking the light from these, nor from the internet modem lit up directly above the bed, and so this woke us up early every morning. We also struggled with the duvet as it was extremely warm- great for winter holidays, but not so great for the summer! For this reason we have given it a lower rating than we otherwise would have given.

  Description of facilities was accurate.

  All beds were very comfortable. It was noted that the property said not suitable for wheelchair use. In fact the living space on the ground floor was very cramped for 6 people. It did help that there were 2 comfortable chairs on the upper floor which could be used but this split the group. The third twin bedroom was very restricted in space but there was no indication of this in the description, and no picture. The kitchen was very adequate and well supplied with crockery. The owners were friendly and helpful. It was good after the holiday that we received an email thanking all the family for leaving the barn so tidy it was very much appreciated.
