  • "This is a lovely property."

    Tastefully furnished by the owner. Situated on a very tidy farm, with friendly dog. We were walking the coast path, so well placed for travel. I would recommend this lovely house to anyone looking for a peaceful haven in the countryside.

  • "Had yet another fantastic time at Bwthyn Trecoed, have been a few times now and each time we have had a fantastic time."

    This was our first time during the summer holidays so got to enjoy some sunshine which meant a day at the beach in Saundersfoot which my 8 and 11 year old boys enjoyed. We visited many attractions in the area all roughly half an hour's drive from the cottage Folly Farm, Carew Castle National Botanic Garden of Wales and many more. The cottage has everything you need, it's clean and tidy and when you arrive you have a nice warm welcome from Gwen who even helped us out when the washing machine packed in, within two days she had replaced it with a new one. We enjoyed it so much I have already booked a week again for next year.

  • "Great property, well maintained and with all the equipment needed for a week away."

    Two gardens, so plenty of outdoor space. Lovely dog from the farm next door who likes to come over and get you to throw a ball or sticks for her. This is in an isolated location, so you really need your own transport. There is no disabled access, so not suitable for anyone who can't manage stairs. Great base for visiting the Welsh coast (some amazing beaches) and countryside. Property provides a real escape from the hustle and bustle for anyone who wants some peace & quiet. I would certainly go back again.

    It is secluded and quiet surrounded by fields. Short drive to a town with all facilities. The cottage is well decorated with all the items you could require. Have visited the cottage for the last 4 years and although there were a couple of maintenance issues this time we have booked to come back again.

    Directions to the cottage are a little confusing as the first right turn after the bridge also says Woodhouse!! Also 6pm check in is very late and 9am check out is very early!! Otherwise we had a very enjoyable holiday xx

    To wake up every morning and open the bedroom window wide, with an uninterrupted view of the countryside and the only sound being the singing of the birds, not even the hum of traffic in the distance. If you like privacy and peace, this property fits the bill Jane Parry

    Who threw her ball and played with her) We had a fabulous multigenerational holiday with me and my husband in our 50s, our Son aged 14 and my father in law aged 90. The cottage is very homely and has a TV in the comfy lounge with a blue ray player and another TV in the dining kitchen. This cottage has every convenience on hand the owners have made it a true home from home. The small touches were lovely the hand towels, washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets, toilet rolls were all provided and the property has jigsaws, games, dvds and even a hairdryer & ironing board ! The location is great for visiting a variety of attractions including castle, stately homes, parks, national trust properties, towns such as Tenby and of course the wonderful coastlines. We even had a spectacular day out at the Welsh show caves which were most impressive. Definitely a super cottage !

    It was spotless when we arrived, well furnished and the kitchen was well stocked with utensils, cutlery and pans etc. Plenty of towels to use too. As a family of 5 (3 very active boys) it was a great base to explore South Wales and the two lawns provided plenty of space for outdoor games. The goal was well used! Gwen was there to welcome us and show us around, accompanied by the farm dog, who was very friendly and just wanted to play! We will most definitely be booking again when we return to South Wales!

    . The directions to find the property were accurate. The property is amazingly quiet apart from the birds. It would make an excellent location to stargaze as its so dark, but the weather didn't play ball for us to do that. The property also benefits from the friendly farm collie who sometimes came for a fuss or a game of ball. The property is well located for both Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire with good road links in both directions.

We had the best nights sleep in the main bedroom which was spacious and had all the storage one needed and more plus the little Gwen special touches that made it feel like being in your own home.

    Immaculate, peaceful, secluded, very well equipped. Have seen previous reviews that the driveway is only suitable for a 4X4. I do not agree at all. I have a VW Golf and I had no trouble with the driveway whatsoever. yes is it is an un-tarmac'd road but if you drive at a sensible slow speed - appropriate to both the conditions and the possibility of children and wildlife being on the road - it poses no difficulties at all. I would definitely recommend this property and would definitely stay here again.
