"What a truly magical place."
.......Candy and Ron (and Robbie) were so welcoming and it was so lovely to be greeted by the thoughtful gifts in the cottage. A great location for exploring Pembrokeshire, 100% recommend this cottage for the opportunity to relax, explore and recharge the batteries. Thankyou for an unforgettable stay.

"Absolutely wonderful space for two to stay, comfortably."
Social, supportive and informative hosts, who provided extra goodies for us as visitors. Beautiful surroundings and environment, close to everything you coukd possibly need. Have no criticisms at all

"The owners made us feel very welcome and were always on hand if we had questions."
They kindly gave us fresh vegetables from their garden! The cottage was very accurately described and is finished to a high standard with good quality fittings and furnishings. The location provided very easy access to the coastal path and we also used the local 'hail & ride' shuttle bus service up to Fishguard (Abergwaun) for just £3.30 for two adults and a dog! We had a great week. Thank you Ron and Candy!

"We had a wonderful long weekend stay here in August."
The cottage is a delight and has been beautifully and carefully created to provide a real home-from-home. Very thoughtfully done and Candy & Ron are wonderful hosts. Highly recommended!

"A perfect getaway."
Easy access to the coast path and stunning walks. Candy and Ron left welcome goodies and were lovely hosts.

"This cottage is beautiful."
The owners have thought of everything, we honestly wouldn’t be able to find fault with it if we tried. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked. The owners had left alternative duvets in the storage box just in case the one provided was not warm enough. It was very clean, the furniture and bed are comfy, the garden is beautifully kept. The front courtyard area is very private and a lovely little sun trap. There are walks from the front door with very easy access to the coastal path. Loved it and highly recommend.

"Post Office Cottage was the perfect location for a week exploring & revisiting Pembrokeshire for us."
The cottage was comfortable & well equipped and felt very homely. The homemade treats after a long journey were most welcome. Candy & Ron made us feel very welcome & offered good information for local places to visit. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Pembrokeshire. An absolute gem of a cottage. Thank you.

"Absolute gem of a cottage."
We had a great time exploring Pembrokeshire and loved coming back to such a cosy cottage away from it all. Will definitely be recommending to family and friends.

-
"Beautiful cottage in stunning surroundings."
Clean, cosy and simply perfect for us and our dog. Wonderful friendly hosts, Post Office Cottage was so tranquil with gorgeous scenery, incredible walks on the doorstep and lots of fantastic beaches, villages and pembrokeshire beauty to explore nearby. Can not reccomend this fabulous cottage highly enough!

"No complaints from us."
If you are looking for constructive comments, a heated towel rail on a timer would have been of help for our October stay.
Hi Les and Anita. It was great to meet you both and we appreciated your lovely comments in the visitor's book. Thanks for the feedback. Whilst you could have utilised the central heating system and radiator(s), we must admit that an electric towel rail would be a useful addition. We're not sure how easy it would be to install a new fused outlet in the bathroom but we'll ask our local electrician to have a look. Best regards Candy and Ron Property Owner

"We loved this cottage and the beautiful quiet area."
The cottage is attractive, clean and has everything you need. The owners who live next door are really nice, friendly and very helpful - but were not intrusive at all. It's a great place for a "get away from it all" holiday. The Pembrokeshire coast path is just a short walk from the cottage and we spent most of our time walking along it. Stunningly beautiful scenery and wildlife. We also found things to do on the two wet days we had. Pubs and shops are a short drive away which may be drawback for some but, for us, the great location made up for that.

"This was the nicest cottage we have ever stayed in and was absolutely immaculate."
Beautiful area and perfect if you like seclusion and lots of walking - which we do! The fantastic weather was also a plus. We had hoped to use the bus more but the operator service 400 Puffin Shuttle and 404 Strumble Shuttle ceased on 5th April so you need to pre-book the Fflecsi Bus if you get tired legs. Candy and Ron were great hosts and very helpful, left lovely homemade treats for us. We had a fantastic holiday in this lovely home.
-
"We have had a brilliant stay at this lovely cottage."
Ron and Candy very welcoming and have thought of everything to make it feel home from home. The homemade treats so thoughtful. Our dog Teddy loved the local dog friendly beaches. He made friends with Robbie. Would highly recommend.

"Beautiful cottage, very clean and good equipped, everything you needed."
Very quiet area. We have a relaxing time, very much recommended.
-
"Lovely idyllic cottage, clean and with everything needed for stay."
Very friendly host's who live next door, who made us welcome. Very peaceful and remote location ... if that's what you want! Would certainly recommend this cottage.

"The owners were lovely and their welcome could not have been warmer."
They clearly wanted us to enjoy our stay and be comfortable and consistently went beyond what might be expected to ensure that this was so. It was especially enjoyable to be staying in a property owned by local people who were keen to help us to find our way round and appreciate the area. They had prepared the cottage with an eye for detail and the property and local area information they provided was a particular example of this. I was blown away by the quality of presentation of the property. As for cleanliness, it was immaculate. In terms of attractive fittings and furnishings - it had a real cottage feel and was beautifully decorated and well supplied with everything we needed, and the bedroom in particular blew me away with its furnishings and view over the fields. We enjoyed sitting outside at the property, finding sun almost all day. Our pet was also made to feel welcome. We fell in love with the area and the location so close to the coast was

Nearby Abermawr beach offers the chance to swim and surf, while Goodwick and Fishguard Lower Town are favourite spots for swimming, kayaking and paddle boarding.
There is so much to see and do in North Pembrokeshire and here is just a taste.

Goodwick is a picturesque coastal village overlooking the bay where the twice daily ferries run to Ireland. With a variety of shops, cafes, pubs and a small supermarket, it offers everything you need. The twin town of Fishguard is only two miles away, where you will find more unique shops, a delicatessen, pubs, restaurants and the Last Invasion Tapestry, which is based on the famous Welsh ladies' victory over the French and has been compared to the Bayeux Tapestry. Located in such a great coastal position, the Pembrokeshire and Cardiganshire section of the world-famous Welsh coastal path is right on your doorstep, so enjoy the scenic walks, outstandingly beautiful beaches, the opportunity to watch dolphins and seals and so much more! From lazy, warm summer days to wild and windy winter days, the scenery is ever-changing and always remarkable.
