  • "We had a lovely long Bank Holiday break at Y Stabl."

    We walked in and immediately felt at home, Steve was so kind and showed us everything we needed as well as pinging us during the long journey there. We settled straight way and got the wine and food on. The equipment was adequate for what we needed, and we managed spaghetti bolognaise, a stew and a pork Sunday lunch (we cook a lot as part of our diet needs)! The welcome basket was lovely, and I don’t think there was anything left by the time we did! The walks were also lovely, and we found plenty of places to sit and have lunch along the way. The weather was kind, and we thoroughly enjoyed the jacuzzi to get back to, nice and simple to use, and the privacy was also fine as you are quite out in the countryside. It was also lovely to read how many people have been coming there for many many years – when the swimming pool was there! Again, thank you we needed to rest our heads and hearts and we able too

  • "Just returned from a fabulous week at Y Stabl and thoroughly enjoyed it."

    Great base for exploring South Wales. Cottage is lovely and has everything you need. We cooked 5 nights out of 7 and had no problems. Steve greeted us on arrival and gave us the tour and some tips on where to walk, which is what we intended doing. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about the area and rightly so! Lower Town Fishguard is gorgeous and I’m a little in love with the place. The weather was so hot we actually found using the jacuzzi at the end of a long day to be too warm! We went in later and later to try and enjoy it for longer. It was lovely though! Goodwick is a lovely little town and we found the people to be so friendly it was like home from home. That was the case everywhere we went! Our only negative was the cottage felt a little damp, but to be fair the constant rain but warm weather up to our week would have contributed. We were lucky so just opened the windows and it made a difference. Nothing worth complaining about though and certainly didn’t spoil our brilliantl week, and I would recommend this to family and friends as a cracking place to stay and Steve and his wife are the best hosts! Thank you.

    Really pleased you enjoyed your stay apologies about the damp some wet towels and robes were left previously before your arrival. Thanks for the lovely reviews. Property Owner

    Everything you need is supplied - the owners made us feel so welcome too, gorgeous Welsh bara brith cake and wine on our arrival. This may be a small gesture but it conveys a really warm welcome missing in many places - our last week away in Brixham had nothing! Steve is great, friendly and really knowledgeable about the area. He’s there when needed but never intrusive. Lovely friendly cat around too we fussed over. Hot tub was just brilliant and we used it every day. Note that the bad review posted on here by somebody previously is complete rubbish - hot tub is NOT overlooked by the owner and is private enough, you can sit at the back of it and you cannot even see the house!! Area is beautiful - fantastic coastal walks in all directions. Lots of clean towels and bath robes for hot tub are provided. Thank you again for a lovely holiday!

    The Wi-Fi Internet service is 200 Mb/s - which is faster than at home. The secluded hot-tub provides a private relaxed space to chill out after a days walking. Clean towels and robes for use around the hot tub are also provided as an added bonus. The owner was helpful and accommodating, available to help with any requirements and provided good advice for places to visit. We benefited from sunny weather, and not having explored this part of Wales before, we found plenty to keep us occupied within a 20-minute drive, in either direction along the coast.

  • "Unfortunately our stay was cut very short with us only being able to stay the 1 night before having to leave."

    There was a miscommunication between Sykes and the owner before arriving so they weren't expecting us but Steve was more than accommodating and got the property ready promptly, which was greatly appreciated. The cottage itself is beautiful and finished to a very high standard however we did feel the description and photo angles published are somewhat misleading stating the owners property is opposite - it is in fact in the garden, or your stay is in theirs should we say. The 2 are in extremely close proximity to one another and both are overlooking the other. It wasn't quite the romantic stay we were expecting as we could see into their home and them into the cottage and hot tub from almost every angle. For us the the property would be perfect if not for the location unfortunately.

    It was lovely to meet you both and no problem preparing the cottage for you at short notice. Sorry the hot tub was not private enough for your needs. Property Owner

    Lots to see and do if you are prepared to drive to other towns nearby. Fishguard itself needs a boost. Lots of shops closed down or empty. On the whole we had a lovely relaxing stay, our only negative comment would be that the owners live very close and a third property is currently being renovated leaving it feeling overlooked. Some kind of privacy screening would be worth a thought or to mention this in the description

    It was exactly as described in the details and the photos did it justice. Steve met us when we arrived, showed us around and explained a few things. He is very friendly, helpful and would have been approachable had we have needed any further assistance. But, then he left us to enjoy our holiday. The cottage is very interesting, homely and had lots of tourist information to help you decide where to visit. There are also DVDs, books and games. The bed was so incredibly comfortable. The cottage is set in a peaceful location with only the occasional (once a day) passing car. The hot tub was a daily delight especially after a day of walking. Robes and extra towels are provided for the hot tub. It was very clean and hygienic. There is a fish pond and water feature in the garden and even when the jets were off, it was so relaxing to sit in the hot tub listening to the trickling sounds and the birdsong. We feel like we've been on a spa retreat. It's an ideal location for reaching both coasts. So many beautiful walks to do. But, also plenty of lovely towns to explore when the weather isn't favourable. We would definitely recommend a stay here.
