Mrs Chambers
Lovely cottage in a wonderful location. We managed to get our VW Golf up the lane - just. Truly dog-friendly accommodation; the garden is genuinely secure. The local shop has a wide selection - not just basics. Britannia Inn in the village and The KIng's Head at Llangennith are both welcoming and open every day. Good vegetarian menu at The King's Head. Lots of good walks straight from the doorstep.

There was a bat in the kitchen when we arrived which we magaged to evict without harming it. Apart from that and my comments above we thought it was a lovely cottage and very comfortable. We had a very enjoyable week.

Only stayed a week but enjoyed our time - all those living in the cottages around were very friendly. Our Dog (our Labrador "Nell") loved the area with long walks beginning right on the door step, through the woods towards the sand-dunes and beach with an amazing café half way (half an hour to the café, then a further half hour to the beach - Perfect! The Britannia Inn 4 or 5 minutes walk down the hill - Dogs welcome - Food and Drinks good Would definitely consider coming again, any time of the year.
