Cleanliness
Reviews on cleanliness are mixed, with several guests finding the cottage clean and others noting it could benefit from a more thorough cleaning, particularly under beds and furniture. Dust and pet hairs were mentioned, suggesting inconsistency in cleaning standards.
Location
The location is highly praised for its tranquillity, proximity to beaches and coastal paths, and beautiful views. It is considered a good base for exploring South Wales, despite some comments about the distance to local amenities.
Comfort
Guests are divided on comfort; some found the beds and sofas uncomfortable and in need of replacement, while others were pleased with the recent updates to furniture. The garden's safety for pets was appreciated, but comfort levels within the cottage received mixed reviews.
Facilities
Facilities are generally well-received, with the cottage described as well-equipped. However, there are several mentions of maintenance issues such as problems with the boiler, showers, and TV. The garden and dog-friendly features are positives, but some appliances and fixtures require attention.

The thoughtfulness of the hosts is evident in the welcome packs and dog amenities, which many guests appreciated. However, it should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and may vary, and are not guaranteed with every stay.
About this property
This is a comfortable, dog friendly, modern cottage, situated in the small coastal hamlet of Penycwm, a mile from Newgale and its popular surfer’s beach and three miles from Solva and its picturesque harbour.
The Pembrokeshire Coast Path is a three minute walk from the cottage. Alternatively, the seasonal coastal shuttle bus or the regular service bus can be caught at the end of the road.
The magnificent beach at Newgale and its’ almost two miles of sand, is perfect for the whole family. It is ideal for long walks, swimming and surfing.
Within a short drive are the beaches of Broad Haven and Little Haven and the city of St Davids, where boat trips to Ramsey and Skomer islands can be booked. The county town of Haverfordwest is also within easy reach.
The scattered village of Newgale in Pembrokeshire is pretty much as close to the beach as you can get. There is a well stocked shop, a pub and a cafe serving a variety of foods while you relax and take in the breathtaking sea views. This is a surfers paradise all year round, while families will love the 2-mile long stretch of sandy beach, and with direct access to the spectacular Pembrokeshire Coast Path, this is a dream location for walkers and bird watchers. The cyclists in your party will enjoy the nearby cycle path, while others may enjoy the majestic St. Davids Cathedral in the "smallest city" in Wales, the array of beautiful unspoilt sandy beaches or a day of thrills and spills at Oakwood Theme Park. All year round and for all ages, this is a perfect location for your Welsh holiday.
