    Enclosed private garden was fantastic for our dog reactive pooch. Welcome tray including dog treats was a lovely touch. With only three lodges on the site, it was beautifully peaceful. Would definately recommend.

  • "This was our second visit to Bier Wood Lodges and it was as perfect as the first visit!"

    The 3 lodges are set in a beautiful, quiet and tranquil area. They are beautifully maintained, bright, airy and spotlessly clean. As dog-friendly accommodation - they are all absolutely 5 star and more. And everyone who stays, says the same - ‘just can’t be beaten’. The enclosed gardens are a wonderful bonus for your fur babies and the close access to a selection of beautiful dog-friendly beaches is just fantastic.

    Very clean, comfortable, with everything you need for a dog friendly stay. It's particularly nice to have a large private garden. The little courtyard of three lodges is also lovely and very well kept. The location is great for exploring Pembrokeshire. There's a lovely garden centre almost "next door" with an excellent cafe, also dog friendly. Would definitely stay again. Thank-you.

  • "Quite simply the BEST dog-friendly holiday home we have ever used."

    It is the first time that we wanted to stay in as much as go out! The lodge is bright and airy and is kept spotlessly clean and fresh. The enclosed garden and the gated balcony were a massive bonus and made being there so relaxing. Our dogs really loved it and claimed it as their own immediately! The utility room was fantastic to keep all the dog paraphernalia out of the main living space, adding to the tranquil relaxed feeling of just being in the lodge. The 3 lodges are beautifully positioned in a private courtyard with pretty flowerbeds to admire from all angles. They are owned and run by a lovely family who are on site and are very welcoming and helpful. They have dogs, so they understand what is needed, and have thought of all the little things that make taking your dogs away with you so easy and pleasurable. I cannot praise their efforts enough. Thank you to Barry and the whole family for providing such a wonderful place for dog owners to enjoy first class holiday facilities. This is the only dog friendly home we have used that we definitely want to return to! The local shop in Manorbier is very well stocked and the beach ( 5 mins in the car) there was fabulous to walk with the dogs. Tenby South beach and Freshwater East beach were also beautiful and easy to access. It has been an amazing holiday experience, and the beautiful lodge was the key. Cannot wait to go again next year!

    Lodge was very comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. In addition to the lodge there was garden area which was ideal for the dog to run around in easily. The living area was spacious and rooms comfortable. Have never stayed in this part of Pembrokeshire before, we visited Tenby, but what impressed most were the beaches, thanks to Barry for recommendations. Favourite beach, Freshwater West (inc sunset). Favourite pub, Stackpole Inn.

  • "Great location away from the main towns but close enough to pick up the Coastal path and to visit other locations."

    The beach is approx 15-20 mins walk away and mostly off road across fields, through woods, or you can walk directly on the road but this does not have a footpath all the way, but we found it to be a relatively quiet lane. From the beach you can then pick up the Coastal path in both directions and enjoy some stunning views and some magnificent coastline. The lodge was actually much bigger than I thought it would and ample room for 2 adults and 1 dog. The kitchen was well equipped to be able to function as self catering for a week with no issues, there is a fish and chip shop just over the road if you fancy a night off from cooking ! (Buttyland Holiday Park but is open to all). The boot room/utility room was definitely a great idea when the design of these lodges were put together as how many times have we all wondered what to do with wet walking gear after a day out !!! Wish more holiday accommodations would think of this. The enclosed garden, and I mean properly enclosed garden with a decent size fence etc was well appreciated by us and our dog !! Owners were very helpful with any queries/questions on the local area. A very pleasant stay and I'll definitely be recommending to our friends and family. Oh and the welcome tray was very welcome - the barra brith tea bread was lovely !!!
