    The owners were friendly and helpful. Only one criticism it would be nice if there was a broom available in the cottage so we could have cleared up the dog hair and leaves that were inevitably brought in. We had a dustpan and brush but a broom would have made it easier.

    Thank you so much for the lovely review, much appreciated and I do wish you had asked me for a broom as there is one and a vacuum cleaner in the laundry for the guests to use. Property Owner

    As much quiet as you could ask for. The cottage was spotless, well equipped, and comfortable. Good facilities, washing drying etc, no rowdy parties or teenagers, no falling down drunks, (apart from me of course) a lovely relaxing break. We will very likely book again next year.

    The furnishings were of very high standard , the bed was so comfortable, every detail had been thought of . So peaceful, all you can hear are the birds on the feeders ( so many different birds ) and the cows across the way but the farm is situated so centrally that you could be back in town in about ten minutes if you wished or any direction to the coast for the day . We would highly recommend. Thank you for a wonderful holiday .

  • "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.

    Thank you for your feedback and compliments and we're sorry that you had some issues. We will look into fitting blinds although it might not be possible due to the age of the building and the modem light is an ongoing issue with our broadband provider, hopefully to be sorted soon. The duvet is a 10.5 tog which is standard but we're sorry that you didn't sleep well. Once again, many thanks for your compliments and apologies for the problems. Property Owner

    Very well equipped. We met the owner who was very helpful. The cottages is in a nice quiet location. The nearest big town Haverfordwest has all the shops and supermarkets if you need them. The location is ideal for access within reasonable distance to Tenby and Saundersfoot and also to St David's. The beaches at Little Haven, Broadhaven and Newgale are fantastic and dog friendly. These three beaches are a short drive away. All in all a lovely holiday at the Old Stable.

Also nice to hear the rain on the skylight on one of the nights.

    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!

  • "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.
