  • "Lovely cosy cottage with everything you needed plus the added bonus of a secure paddock to run the dogs if needed."

    Within 10 -15 min drive of supermarkets and very peaceful. We loved it.

  • "Beautiful cottage,great position,great local pub."

    Reviewed by Julian5.0Jun 2024

  • "The property was very clean, with a lovely patio area which gets lots of sun."

    The location is extremely quiet at night and the paddock was perfect for exercising our 2 dogs. Haverfordwest - about 20 mins away - has all the main shops and supermarkets and the general location of the property was ideal for touring the county, which has to be one of the best in the UK. One recommendation would be to provide the location using What3words which is becoming more and more popular and is extremely accurate.

  • "The Old Granary was ideal for our first break away with our 9-month old labrador."

    Especially the paddock nearby where we could leave him off his lead and do some training. Heather is the perfect host making sure we had everything we needed. The extra little touches like a packet of biscuits, bottle of wine and milk in the fridge and torches for taking the dog out ment a lot to us.

    Typical Welsh weather but we were not put off and went out every day. The 2 granddaughters loved there stay as well. Went tp pembrook castle welsh botanical gardens. St davids and twice to the beach and they went into the sea on both occasions. Last day we went to folly farm and zoo. The cottage is in a very quiet place so we slept well.
