On arrival there was a lovely plate of home made Welsh Cakes, which were amazing, along with tea, coffee, milk and sugar. There was a visitors pack, full of information. I would definitely recommend to friends and family. We had a perfect holiday. Thank you Jackie (Chesterfied)

Itâs set over 4 floors which was daunting when we first arrived but by the end no problem at all. You approach the property by a long drive and on the left is some overgrown land which does not belong to the owners so they have no control how it looks but they are helping to clear it to make it look better. You approach the old mill, the annex is located on the side of the building. There is plenty of parking. You have access to a lovely private garden with table, plenty of chairs, bbq and fire pit. There is even access to a large wood for walking which is wonderful. The owners Phil and Rhiann have even set aside another idyll with a bench to sit on by a managed wild flower garden. You enter the property via a lobby area (great for coats and footwear). On the right opens onto a large kitchen and equipped with dish washer, washing machine, microwave, fridge freezer, cooker and coffee machine. Tesco even deliver if you want. There is a table that sits 6 comfortably. On the first floor are 2 very generous sized bedrooms with large double beds, wardrobes and side tables plenty of space to move around. Second floor has a very generous bathroom with walk in shower. The living room is also on this floor and has a large 3 and 2 seater sofas. There is also a television and games in the cupboard. It is large, comfortable and spacious. The last floor was wonderful a huge king size bed and spacious. Again a large spacious bathroom with bath and shower over. Wonderful. You would think that is the end but in the main bedroom is a small safe ladder to access a mezzanine with a small sofa. The owners have put in a dormer window which is great of a night time to appreciate the unpolluted sky of Neyland. Amazing how you become so use to street lighting that we very rarely see skies that twinkle. Letâs in loads of light of a morning bliss. The owners have been thoughtful with certain touches. Torches on the stairs for use if you want to go for an evening walk or in our case back from the pub. Have to mention the local pub The Ferry Inn well worth a visit or two. In the kitchen are information booklets/ leaflets about the area with recommendations from the owners which I have to say we did follow and were not disappointed. We were welcomed with a plate of the most delicious Welsh cakes and although we tried a few others in the area none came close to Rhianns. The area is stunning. Neyland lies in an estuary and has some lovely views. Near by is the marina so if you are keen on water sports this is the spot. Although if itâs not your thing the cafes are lovely and the nature reserve is worth a visit. Itâs close to lots of beautiful areas, Saundersfoot, Tenby, Milford Haven, St Davidâs, Stackpole, Barafundle Bay and Solva to name a few. Itâs such a versatile place to chill and enjoy. Be water sporty or go on lots of wonderful walks. Lovely beaches or a bit of retail therapy. It had something for each of us as a party of 4 adults and a small cute dog. The owners are nearby and are on hand if needed but otherwise leave you alone and we personally were not aware of them. Can we recommend the old mill? Absolutely. Would we visit and book again? Absolutely. Would we recommend this part of Wales? Without a doubt. Itâs such a hidden gem. The area is pretty, the people so friendly and welcoming.
