Close to the local attractions so not too much driving. I was a bit surprised by the standalone hobs until I realised that main hob is broken. They worked fine so no problem. The really local shop in Roch is now shut but there is a petrol station shop not far away and plenty of shops in Haverfordwest. I'd stay here again.

It was within easy access of all the places that i wanted to visit ,i.e the local coastal path walks and St.David's. The place itself was very clean and ideal for the stay that i had booked. The chalet was comfortable and had everything that you needed for a short self-catering stay. It was also vey quiet , but that might be due to the time of year i was there,,,,October. I would certainly use this place again if i visited Pembrokeshire.

Super comfy beds, top quality appliances and utensils with everything that one could need for a comfortable stay. However, access was difficult, steps with no handrail whatsoever proved impossible for my 81 year old husband. We managed by going over the grass and down a slopes the rear of the chalet. We were glad that we read previous comments about lack of non slip shower mat and we took our own. The shower was great but there is a problem with the waste outlet, despite taking out and cleaning the waste trap it still didn't drain away quickly enough to stop the shower tray from filling with water. This meant turning off the shower after a couple of minutes and waiting for it to drain then resuming ones shower. The village shop mentioned in the booklet seems to have closed down. We did enjoy our stay very much despite the problems that I mentioned. Access would be perfectly fine for younger and more agile people. The setting is quiet and peaceful and great for visiting the many beautiful beaches, harbours and villages and of course St David's.
