Guests have enjoyed their stays, highlighting the convenience of local attractions. Some issues were noted regarding cleanliness and facilities, but the overall experience remains positive.
Guests have reported the presence of cobwebs upon arrival, suggesting that cleanliness could be improved. However, there are not enough reviews detailing cleanliness to provide a comprehensive assessment.

The cottage is described as spacious and comfortable, particularly the bedrooms, indicating that guests find the property to be a cosy and pleasant place to stay.
While the cottage is well-equipped, there are remarks about inadequate cooking facilities for six people, a lack of clear instructions for rubbish/recycling, and issues with key access and parking. The garden's condition and the absence of a BBQ as advertised also detract from the facilities score.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the property owner, aside from a drink offered by the owner due to a key entry problem. As such, it is not possible to score this category.
About this property
This quintessentially Welsh cottage is in the gorgeous village of Stackpole, a dream for lovers of natural beauty. Nearby, explore award-winning sandy beaches, peaceful wooded valleys, and picturesque walking trails as well as the popular National Trust site, Stackpole Estate, 1.5 miles away. With space for six humans and two doggies, this charming semi-detached property is ideal for a family group or holiday among friends.
You’ll enter into a hallway that leads to a welcoming lounge where you can sink into leather sofas and prepare for a quiet night in, perhaps watching something on the Smart TV or having a quiet moment with a new novel. Vinyl enthusiasts will be delighted to discover the vintage record player, while keen chefs will appreciate the spacious kitchen, complete with a Rayburn stove for your culinary creations. Sit down to meals together in the separate dining room, or if it’s mild, take the food out to the large rear garden and enjoy al fresco dining on the picnic bench. You’ll have ample opportunities for scenic walks through inspiring scenery, starting perhaps with the 1.5-mile stroll down to Barafundle Bay (1 mile), a delightful golden sand cove with cliffs and grassy sand dunes. Bosherston Lily Ponds (2.5 miles) is another excellent attraction – this wildlife-rich nature reserve is home to otters, dragonflies and mute swans you may well see during your visit. Broad Haven South Beach (4 miles) is another lovely beach with a striking limestone stack visible just offshore. Got children in your party? They’ll love a trip to Oakwood Theme Park (14.5 miles) for an adrenaline-filled day out they’ll remember forever.
