The best cottage we have ever stayed in! 😎
A very spacious comfortable house, in a peaceful location, fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. Very comfortable beds and immaculately clean. Perfectly located for exploring the Pembrokeshire coast and the Ship Inn 5 doors down serves good food.

Best Property Ever!
The house and garden are terrific, everything you could possibly need! Lots of storage space in the kitchen; great appliances, cookware, dishes, etc.. Our group included a 2 and 4 year old, their parents, and grandparents, and we were all very comfortable. Absolutely no complaints about the house which I find incredible. Trefin is a darling village, easy walk to the beach, and great walks in general, especially along the cliffs. We all enjoyed St. David's and the Bug Ranch, great even without children in tow. Pembroke Castle, about an hour away, was fabulous. Lots of brochures of the area; very helpful book on the house and area. The Ship Inn, almost next door, had great food and even live entertainment one of the times we visited. Highly endorse this home and area! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home!

Excellent stay
Very well equipped property which was spotlessly clean. Whilst we were just a couple and were not looking for much in the way of cooking facilities the kitchen had everything one could have wanted.
Lovely bathrooms and a cosy feel to the whole place.
Good instructions and information.

Beautiful cottage
The house is very beautiful. Enjoyed several challenging walks close by. Needed to bring supplies such as salt, pepper and basic spices. Also needed shampoo. Called on first day about five light bulbs out in kitchen and other rooms that were not replaced during our stay. Also needed a small non stick pan to cook eggs. Be aware that range top needed to be turned off and on to start working.

Beautiful house, lovely location
House was bigger and smarter than we had expected from the pictures. Had a great week here. Fantastic coastal walks right from the house. We enjoyed going to the little cove 10 mins walk away, and also driving 6 mins to Porthgain and then lovely 20 min walk along the coast path to a big sandy beach which was excellent for ball games and sea swimming. Useful Spar supermarket 5 mins drive away.
Friendly Ship Inn virtually next door and we greatly enjoyed the Open Mic night with a range of performers.
The house was extremely well equipped and perfect for 6 adults. Also suitable for children with stairgates etc. Lots of places to visit close by.

Perfect house in a perfect location
An absolutely amazing stay, spent 2 weeks here and the house was immaculately presented, catered for everything you could possibly need! every utensil you could want, different pillows and bedding if you don't like the feathers and a feel to it that just screamed family home. We all settled in quickly and comfortably as if it was our own house with 3 different generations to accommodate & cater for.
Owners were very helpful and informative on the local area on where's good to go to and then left us be to enjoy our holiday, but when called upon they instantly responded. Excellent hosts and can not thank them enough for letting us stay in their home!
Local area is amazing, coastal walks are breath taking and the local pub literally a minutes walk down the road were very welcoming and accommodated us whenever we asked for a table for 6 without booking with the food being extremely good as well. Trips out everyday as well with an abundance for things to do for all ages in and around the local area, Whitesands Beach and the Cathedral at St Davids a personal highlight for myself. Crisp clean air, friendly and welcoming locals, great food and scenery that dumb strucks you over and over again, absolute perfection in paradise!!
We all fell in love with the property, the people and the area so much so we are currently looking at properties to move to the area! if you get the chance to book this beautiful place you are very lucky indeed and hope you enjoy as much as we all did.

Beautiful cottage and setting
We came for a family holiday with four adults and two children.
The cottage was absolutely lovely, the rooms were comfortable and spacious and the garden was great. We couldn’t ask for a better location with cliffs and secluded beach just a short walk away with stunning views.
The hosts were very friendly with lots of helpful suggestions for places to visit.
We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

Fabulous location!!!
Luxury is always relative, but the house was perfect for our troop....grandparents, daughter/husband and 14, 11 yo granddaughters. Communication was easy, house was spotless, and had everything you need.
But the location is simply outstanding! Direct access to north or southbound Pembrokeshire Coastal Path. Children loved walking down to water's edge to skip rocks. You are 30min, N or S, to all kinds of POI.
And a couple doors down from The Ship Inn...for our evening meals.
Our week stay was highlight of our 5 week travel of Wales. Can't imagine a better VRBO for our needs.

spacious, very clean and a nice location
If you are into cliffs, beaches, nature, paddle boarding, neolithic burial sites and artisan ice cream, then North Pembrokeshire is the place for you. We stayed here at the end of August and missed the puffins (by a month), but caught the seal pups (yay!). The house is very clean, spacious and very well equipped with lots and lots of things to do and see nearby (if you have any of the aforementioned interests). The pictures are a fair and accurate representation of the property and I wholeheartedly recommend it as a holiday rental.

Fab house, great location!
This is our second time that we have stayed at this property and once again we could not fault it. It is a lovely 'home from home', very spacious with an enclosed garden that was great for the grandkids. It also has everything that you could possibly want for a very comfortable and enjoyable stay.
The location is fab; great views and only a short walk down to the Welsh Coastal Path and a very pretty little cove. The village has a friendly pub and a great cafe that serves very tasty, home-cooked food.
I would recommend this to anyone and would love to come back again in the future.

Fab house, great location!
This is a lovely, spacious and comfortable house which has everything that you would want in a 'home away from home'. We spent a few days here when the weather wasn't the best but the house was a warm & welcoming place to come back to. The house has lots of child-friendly features as well as a safe & enclosed garden, ideal for the warmer months.
It's in a great location with easy access to the Coastal Path and a short walk from the house is a small cove where we enjoyed watching seals. Within the village there is a friendly pub and a great cafe (open every day except Monday). There are also plenty of things to do and see within a short drive including the city of St. David's.
I would definitely recommend staying here!

A home from home
Excellent facilities and baby friendly! Large house so plenty of space and beautiful views of the fields.
We loved that it is a few minutes walk to a beach where we could see seals in the sea. Access to other places of interest via car journey is easy.
We are sad to be leaving and will tell all our friends and family about this place.

Perfect getaway cottage
Absolutely perfect coastal cottage. The house was even better than the photos suggest. Spacious, sparkly clean and full of thoughtful touches - this is the perfect base to investigate Pembrokeshire. Location was also fab. Short walk to a little beach and a short car journey to some amazing waves. Just lovely.

Lovely Property
Property was very clean as described and well fitted out. Had everything needed and more. Small feedback would be, bit messy at the front with bins, old toys bags etc. Also, would benefit from a small bench/seat in porch for oldies to sit on whilst putting boots on. Also, plastic old chairs on decking a juxtaposition with the fittings, style and interior quality of the house.

Christmas Cottage Christmas break
Lovely home near the sea, quiet and rural. Lovely coastal walks nearby and not far from beaches. Two great eateries in Haverfordwest, Sloop Inn and the Shed lovely food and staff. Cottage is bigger than it seems from outside, kitchen great size. Mass at At David's Cathedral with engaging priest and warm welcome. Bedrooms comfy and underfloor heating makes it cosy.
