Very comfortable cottage with its own enclosed patio ideal for privacy and the dogs. Alex and his father were extremely accommodating and looked after us very well. An idyllic setting for lovely walks and relaxation.

In a picturesque and well-maintained estate, the cottage exceeded our expectations, offering more than the photos conveyed. The breathtaking views, especially the sunsets and the occasional visits from the horse in the back, were highlights of our stay. Our two dogs had a safe and enjoyable time exploring the surroundings. The cottage itself was comfortable, ensuring restful nights for us all. We enjoyed swimming in the heated, covered pool. There was everything we needed and we slept well! We made the most of our location with visits to Pendine Sands and New Quay, savouring delicious meals at HWB Food Hall (highly recommend the Thai cuisine!). Narberth offered charming shopping experiences, and even on rainy days, we enjoyed the Cofio Lounge in Carmarthen. A sunny day at Colby Woodland Garden, complete with a picnic, was the cherry on top of our relaxing and memorable stay at Puffin Cottage.
