Warm and cosy. We did have a couple of issues. The downstairs wet room lived up to its name, very WET. It does not drain properly so is very difficult and dangerous to walk on. Shower head just a dribble, kept falling off as well. Bath ran cold after about 10 inches. The hob could do with replacing, not working properly. We did enjoy rest of cottage. Had a lovely stay. No spare bulbs lamp bulb went.

Which I guess speaks for itself. We have used it for a three generation vacation in order to bring our parents to an area that they took us vacationing as kids. You canât beat the pembrokeshire coastline and arguably the stretch between Solva and St Justinians is one of the best. The ground floor level bedroom and bathroom addition allows us to bring our parents. Although we have not worked out a way to take them along the coast path yet!!

Hadn't realised that it faced another cottage directly opposite. This is not clear from the pictures of it and would probably put us off booking this property again. On the positive side it was spacious, with very good amenities, comfortable and ideally situated for exploring Solva, St Davids and close to many beaches and the the Coast Path. A couple of negative points. The WiFi did not work for the whole stay and mobile signal was weak to absent. The upstairs bathroom is very small and the sloping roof accentuates this meaning that anyone over 5ft 9 cannot stand up straight in front of the bathroom mirror, or comfortably use the over bath shower. Despite these minor points we thoroughly enjoyed our stay
