• "Great area & base for visiting places, Lewis was very helpful & thoughtful when we had problems with the WiFi."

  I am glad you were successful in the reason you visited the area and managed to assist you in this by reconnecting the broadband that appears to have been disrupted during the previous guests' stay. White Thorns is certainly in a location ideal for visiting all the beautiful surrounding areas of Pembrokeshire.. Property Owner

• "What a lovely bungalow and within a good distance of everything we wanted to do."

  The rooms were just so cosy and the kitchen was equipped with all we needed. Great shower and the bonus of a washing machine. As soon as our work holiday dates allow, we want to go back as was everything we needed. Thanks also to Kate and the cleaning service, you're marvelous. X

  I am glad you found White Thorns was to your liking and had all you wanted for an enjoyable three week stay. Thank you regarding your comments about Kate and her staff. They provide an excellent service and I highly recommend them to any holiday let owner. Property Owner

• "The property was clean comfortable well heated and was a good base for all the facilities of Haverfordwest."

  The garden was dog safe and there was a nice patio area to sit out when the weather is fine. Overall the property was a little outdated and tired in places for instance the chairs in the dining room are too small in height for the table but the main rear bedroom and bathroom were fine.

  I am glad you found that White Thorns was clean. warm, dog safe, bedrooms, bathroom, patio area as well as its location were to your satisfaction. Regarding the dining room the furniture is due to be replaced at the end of the season. Many of the features within the property add to its character and this would be lost if attempts were made to 'modernise' it. Property Owner

• "Cleaning needs improvement and the front garden could do with having a gate on it."

  Otherwise it is a spacious property and we had a lovely stay.

  I am glad you had a lovely stay. With regard the the two points raised. The cleaners maintain a high standard but sometimes something is missed so guests are sent an email before their arrival informing them that if there is something they are not happy with to contact the cleaners who will attend and rectify the matter for them. A gate to the front garden is not needed as the property has a very large very secure rear garden for pets and children. Property Owner

  Great enclosed rear garden where our 3 labradors enjoyed playing and exploring. Location is perfect for access to town and beaches of west wales. We are looking forward to returning. Lewis the owner was always available if needed, by phone or email.

  Thank you for all your comments. I am glad you, and especially your three beautiful Labradors, found White Thorns to their liking. I note you have already booked to stay at White Thorns again next year. Thank you for that. Lewis Property Owner

  TEA STAINS WERE FOUND ON THE DUVET. PREVIOUS RUBBISH WAS FOUND IN THE KITCHEN BIN, THE TOILET SEAT WAS LOOSE. BAGS FOR BED LINEN WERE NOT PRESENT ON LEAVING. THE TV SIGNAL WAS LOST ONE EVENING. THERE WAS NO ICE TRAY IN THE FREEZER. THE SHED AND PARASOL WERE DIRTY AND UNTIDY AND COVERED IN COBWEBS. ELECTRIC FIRE IN THE REAR LIVING ROOM TOO NOISY TO USE. THE ONE MILE WALK TO THE SHOPS IS STEEP AND NOT FOR THE ELDERLY WITH MOBILITY ISSUES. INFORMATION ON THE AWKWARD DRIVE/PARKING ISSUE WAS ONLY PROVIDED BY THE OWNER DIRECT AFTER BOOKING..THE CAR WAS SCRAPED UNDERNEATH AT THE FRONT. WE WERE TELEPHONED BY THE OWNERS WHILST DRIVING ON LEAVING WHICH WAS NOT WELCOME AND I REGARD AS A BREACH OF PRIVACY...I SEE NO REASON WHY THE OWNER SHOULD BE GIVEN THE SYKES CUSTOMERS PHONE AND EMAIL. WILL NOT USE SYKES AGAIN.

  Your comments are noted and I am sorry, if somewhat surprised, about some of your comments having regard to those of recent previous guests. Guests contact information is provided to the property owner as you enter in to a contract with us as well as a contract with the booking agent. Sometimes it is necessary to contact our customer's due to unforeseen circumstances or urgent maintenance issues. All guests are sent email communication prior to their visit in order to receive the relevant key collection information. This includes the request that if UPON THEIR ARRIVAL they find something that needs rectifying to contact the cleaning company so that the appropriate action could be taken. There is no record of this occurring. It also advises how to correctly approach the drive. The parasol was at the time was brand new and again the email explains where to leave any used linen and towels. Please note that if we were made aware of any issues during your stay it would have been in our best interest to resolve them for you in a timely manner. If you wish to discuss your feedback further, please do not hesitate to contact us. Property Owner

  Not far from many coastal walks which are stunning. Lost Coins pub is a great place for food and drinks and is a 5 minute drive. The bungalow is a nice size and has a fantastic size garden (that the dog really enjoyed). It was also very clean and tidy. Only one small issue was the internet connection wasn’t great but that’s Vodafone’s issue not the owners. All in all a great place.

  Thank you for your kind comments. I am glad you had a good time. As well as its ideal location to visit all parts of Pembrokeshire White Thorns provides a large secure garden for guests' dogs to run around. Unfortunately like many parts of the UK the Wifi system has its good days and bad days. Lewis Property Owner

• "White Thorns provided a very comfortable, warm base for our visit to Pembrokeshire to see family."

  The accommodation is very large and there is plenty of room. White Thorns is quite dated however this isnt a negative comment, it has a certain charm which made it very welcoming. Beds were super comfortable. Walk in shower was great. Drive up to property is steep . Garden at rear is dog friendly and secure. Kitchen was only area we felt lacking ....the room was a bit pokey oven seemed hit or miss and some of the pans had seen better days. Its a 10 minute walk into Haverfordwest town and plenty of supermarkets localy. White Thorns was also 10 mins to train station. Great road network to popular areas such as St Davids, Tenby and Saundersfoot. The acvomodation was clean and there were ample towels and sheets fresh and crisp. A thoughtfull welcome gift of tea, coffee, milk and biscuits.Internet was a little hit and miss. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend as a comfortable spacious warm base to explore the area.

  Thank you for your kind comments and am glad you recommend White Thorns and be happy to stay again. I will look into the points you raised concerning the items in the kitchen. Lewis Property Owner

• "Brilliant place loved it the moment we arrived."

  Wish we had booked 2 weeks instead of just the 1. The garden was superb and allowed the Dogs to safely run free. The house had a very beautiful old world type feel to it. Kitchen was excellent. Bathroom had a wonderful and easy to use shower. Two spacious Lounges, lovely Dining Room. Bedrooms were top notch and comfortable beds. Hallway was very retro, loved walking down it. A couple of concerns, 1 disposal of Rubbish, we put our bags with the others in the small room behind the Garage. Is it collected regularly? 2. The Driveway is very tough to manoeuvre. The car really struggled getting up it and also going down onto the main road. Our stay was perfect though. I was literally in tears the evening before and on the morning we left. My dream place is real and is called White Thorns.

  It was lovely and warm and cosy and although close to the town, it was very quiet Although some of the furniture is slightly dated, the bedrooms were very comfortable, and loved having the 2 sitting rooms, as we used one in the morning and one in the evening - The garden was great for the dog, even in November- though we did block off the front entrace to the front garden as no gate. There are very few minuses but - if it is a minus is that the drive is a bit on the steep side - there is only one bathroom/toilet ,- and although you can walk into town, its downhill there and uphill back, so would be difficult walking with shopping- but would highly recommend this property

  It had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. The bed was very comfortable and the location was quiet. The garden was huge and made it enjoyable for our dog too! It was in a great location, an easy 10min walk into town and a short drive to the beaches. The only minor point, which we knew about from others’ feedback, was negotiating the driveway, especially in the dark when it was almost impossible to see where you were going despite the security light. We note that the owner is intending to do something about widening the driveway, but wonder if additional lights and perhaps a mirror to help reverse out into the road might help in the short term? We had a great stay and would recommend the property.

  The Coastal Path was well worth walking, we saw lots of wildlife along the way. Not sure where the beach was at only 4 miles away! Good Shower, rooms very pleasant, well furnished, super secure garden to run my dog in. Cooker worked well. Hot water took a long time to come through in the kitchen and bathroom but was nice and hot when it did. Heating was efficient. Patio in garden was well situated to catch the afternoon sun. The access from the road is not ideal for a car - getting out was a problem as you couldn't turn around at the top of the drive. Part of the front garden could be taken out to accommodate a car turning around which would make it much safer to get out.

  This lovely property was very conveniently situated for exploring South Wales and it’s lovely beaches. It was immaculately clean and had everything we needed for our stay. There was a lovely welcome pack waiting for us which, thoughtfully, contained things we needed to start our holiday and a couple of luxuries too. The owner contacted us a couple of times before our visit giving us valuable information such as roadworks in the area and the fact that Pembroke Show would be on during our stay so that pubs, restaurants etc could be busy so it would be advisable to book in advance. I would have no hesitation in recommending this property nor returning in the future.

• "We had a lovely two weeks staying at White Thorns."

  The house and garden had lots of space and the facilities were excellent, a real home from home with everything that we needed, despite some of the decor being a little dated. The garden was brilliant for the dogs, information supplied in the cottage emphasised that dogs should not be left unattended in the garden as they may be able to get through the fence/hedge. There was a large patio area which meant we could sit out in the evening which we loved. The WiFi was excellent too. The ‘Welsh’ welcome pack was a really nice gesture and much appreciated after a long journey. We visit this area regularly and have previously stayed at Nolton and Hasguard’s Cross but found this location much more convenient, both for the town and for driving to the beaches as the routes were main roads rather than single track country roads. When we arrived, everywhere was lovely and clean, apart from the bathroom which was quite grubby. We really appreciated the clean linen half way through the 2 week holiday. We do feel that the kitchen would benefit from an under counter freezer as the small freezer is not appropriate for a family and that the step in kitchen (near to the fridge) is painted a different colour to prevent tripping. Overall we had a lovely holiday and will definitely be returning to White Thorns.

  This we understand to be on going problem that’s need urgent attention an we did report this on the first day of our holiday. Toilet seat was broken too.

  Thank you for your feedback. The owner apologises for the patio door issues you had during your stay. I understand that as the owner themselves were on holiday and were unable to rectify the patio door themselves they sent their cleaning company to assist you. The cleaning team advised that it was a problem with a bent key and they tried to contact a handyman to have it fixed for you asap. Unfortunately, as the owner was out of the country it took longer to arrange this than first thought, the owner advised you to isolate the broken lock by locking another internal door making the property safe until the handyman could be with you. The locking mechanism has now been replaced. The toilet seat just needed tightening as it came loose, this has now been fixed. With reference to the garden, although our properties are advertised a being pet friendly, it is not possible to make and garden dog proof. Property Owner

• "White Thorns is a large property well located for exploring Pembrokeshire."

  We enjoyed having the benefit of 2 lounges and the garden was enormous (although a previous renter had not cleaned up after their dog!). Great base for hitting the coast. The property boasted everything we needed (although a freezer would have been helpful) and allowed us to have a great holiday in this beautiful part of the country.
