Guests say
Barn Cottage in Haverfordwest offers a charming, rural experience with welcoming hosts. Guests appreciate the idyllic setting, cosy atmosphere with a wood fire, and the farm's tranquility. The surrounding areas are praised for their beauty and proximity to local attractions. Some guests noted areas for improvement, particularly in cleanliness and kitchen amenities, but the overall sentiment is positive with many looking forward to returning.
Cleanliness received mixed reviews. While some guests found the cottage immaculate, others reported cobwebs, dead flies, and a general need for a deeper clean. The inconsistency suggests room for improvement in this area.
The location is highly praised for its peaceful rural setting and proximity to Pembrokeshire attractions. The farm environment adds to the charm, although some noted the presence of flies due to the proximity to farm animals.
Guests found the beds comfortable and the cottage cosy, especially with the wood fire. However, some noted the property could benefit from updates and maintenance to enhance overall comfort.
Facilities were seen as adequate but in need of updating and replenishing, particularly in the kitchen. The lack of a freezer, despite being advertised, and issues with other appliances were noted. Some guests also mentioned the need for more utensils and garden furniture.
The hosts' thoughtfulness was frequently mentioned, with guests appreciating the warm welcome and personal touches like homemade cakes and waffles. However, it should be noted that such gestures, while delightful, are not guaranteed for every stay.

Sleeps 6 easily and has everything you need for a week away exploring the wonderful Pembrokeshire beaches and walking trails. Arrived to find the cottage clean and ready for us, as well as a home made Bara Brith! Nesta lives on the house next door and came to check everything was ok, explained where everything was and recommended a few places to visit and where to eat. Thoroughly enjoyable holiday, excellent facilities and value for money.

Nesta, the owner, is a lovely lady and greeted us with delicious Welsh Cakes. As itâs a farm location, itâs lovely and peaceful and just whatâs is needed for a relaxing break. The cottage is comfortable and has everything you need. Itâs in a great location for exploring Pembrokeshire, and Haverfordwest is just down the road if you want the amenities a town can provide.
