About this property

Saundersfoot 3.6 miles. Well-positioned within the coastal village of Amroth, near Saundersfoot in Pembrokeshire, is Rock House, a fabulous three-bedroom dwelling, affording far-reaching sea views from both the downstairs windows and full-length balcony. Just a stone's throw away from Amroth beach and various local amenities, this pet-friendly property offers an open-plan living space, suitable for a family of six or a group celebration. Enter the open-plan space, where you can fulfil your self-catering needs in the well-equipped kitchen, gather around the six-seater dining table, or relax in front of the woodburning stove, enveloped by plush seating and a selection of books and games. Head outside for beautiful views of the sea and make use of the enclosed front patio and the small rear yard. Return indoors to prepare for bed in the ground-floor bathroom, featuring an indulgent free-standing bath and walk-in shower, before venturing upstairs to find three well-presented bedrooms, including a king-size with en-suite, a double, and a twin. Come morning, head out to the front balcony with a coffee in hand, before grabbing your walking boots and following the 186-mile-long Pembrokeshire coastal path. On your travels you'll also arrive at various eateries, shops, and beauty spots, along with Telpyn Beach, Colby Woodland Garden, a National Trust property, and the family-friendly attraction of Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo. Reaching Saundersfoot, take advantage of your waterfront location, by relaxing upon the local beach, trying your hand at sea fishing, or taking to the water with the chance to surf or paddle board at Outer Reef Water Sports Centre. The bustling town of Tenby is a short car journey away, offering the chance to tour the Tudor Merchant's House, discover the remains of Tenby Castle, or enjoy a stroll across Tenby North Beach, before reaching Pembroke Castle and Mill Pond, possible to add to your itinerary. Enjoy all of this, and more, at Rock House.

Saundersfoot, a vibrant fishing community, is 3 miles from Tenby and is idyllically located at the bottom of a forested valley on the stunning Pembrokeshire Coast. The community has a wide variety of stores, bars, and eateries, and the picturesque harbour offers sailing and fishing options. Beautiful, sandy Blue Flag beaches offer a great location for leisurely swimming, and the 186-mile Pembrokeshire Coast Path, which starts in the neighbourhood of Amroth, is a great option for walkers. Go to Tenby, a charming seaside town with historic walls, world-class beaches, and boat tours to the monastery Island of Caldey. This is a great location for a wonderful vacation because Folly Farm's amazing vintage funfair, Blue Stone, and Oakwood Theme Park's terrifying rides are all nearby and easily accessible.

    Lovely welcome card & bottle of wine, thank you. The house is comfortable though really is in need of a deep clean, and the en suite has a really damp, cold feel to it. The en suite toilet is also in need of some maintenance, you have to manipulate the ball cock to flush it. Otherwise lovely house, great location.

    Contacted Sykes several times who assured me all the issues would be resolved. A lot of the issues were resolved but still a lot of things i found unacceptable all.of which i have taken photos. Upon arrival the downstairs shower contained several pubic hairs. The back yard was the smallest yard iv ever seen but couldnt let our dog out due to the worst stench of stale urine and it was so grubby looking. The front bedroom bed looked like someone had been lying in it it was so creased.We tried to sleep in the back bedroom as the front bedroom was too bright with a security light next door left on but couldnt use that room due to the stench of damp and mould which was all along the patio doors in that room. There was hairs and dust of previous guests along the skirting boards and thick clumps of dust hanging out under the radiator. To top all this after making a large food shop we found that the oven did not work so a lot of our shopping went to waste. There was no information pack or guest book. Felt like the property had no care taken of it as recent reviews state it has been up for sale. I contacted Sykes several times via the online chat only to be ignorned. I thought booking with such a large national company we would be looked after. How wrong i was.
