"This cottage is in a fantastic location and is very comfortable and well equipped. The super king bed in the main bedroom is particularly comfy, and the cottage is quiet and peaceful and a great base for a stay in Tenby and the surrounding area. We particularly loved visiting NT Stackpole with the lily Ponds and Broadhaven Beach. However our stay was slughtly marred by a few issues that shouldn't have occurred for the price we were paying per night.I had requested a high chair and travel cot for our 13 month old baby. These were in the cottage but were not set up for use, although that is a minor point. What was important though was that nowhere in my booking was I informed that I would need to bring my own bed sheets and linen for this cot and so we were surprised to find there was nothing. Luckily we didn't have anyone using the single beds so I was able to fashion a sheet out of a single bed sheet; however, this is not best practice at all safety-wise. It needs to be made clear when booking that no sheets are provided. The travel cot also seems like it could do with replacing as the mattress is super super thin and bends at each end so I had to try and use the spare towels to make this a flat and more comfortable surface. There was no option when booking to request a stair gate separately, but I wasn't concerned by this as the listing stated the cottage had one. When we arrived there was so stair gate in place however the stairs are in between the kitchen and lounge and are very steep. This meant we couldn't allow our baby free reign to crawl around safely. When I contacted the owner of the cottage she said I should have requested this separately, but as I say, this was not an option on the website, and you would also assume that requesting a cot and highchair would alert to the fact that a stair gate would also be required. We were also not provided with any washing up sponge or brush and barely any washing up liquid, and no dishwasher tablet, so we weren't able to clean up after our meal. When bathing the baby we also found that the bath plug didn't fit and the water drained immediately out of the bath so we also had to request this issue also be dealt with! The cottage owner contacted the property management company who contacted me but unfortunately were not able to come and rectify the problems until the next day, but assured me they would be round first thing at 9am for the stair gate, and around 3/4pm for the bath. Unfortunately noone arrived until 10am the next day, by which time I had had to put my baby down for a nap. Whilst they were very kind and brought a bottle of prosecco, they were very noisy and woke up my baby by running up and down the stairs loudly, and clanging the stair gates right outside and naive the bedroom. As the weather was awful that day (by no means anyones fault!!) we were then stuck in the house most the day with a very overtired baby.We then put our daughter down for a second attempt at a nap at lunchtime, and the handyman arrived to look at the bath 2 hours early and again woke up the baby by making lots of noise in the bathroom that was next to the bedroom. Therefore, our dissatisfaction arose as due to the relatively high cost of the accommodation we were disappointed that these issues had arisen in the first place, and then that the rectification of these problems seemed to cause us more issues!"

"Apartment cyfforddus iawn gyda golygfeydd bendigedig o Draeth y Gogledd, yr harbwr a'r môr. A'r cyfan wedi'i fframio gan ffenest fawr drawiadol. Dyna rinwedd mwya'r lle a'r ffenest ei hun. Yn wir, mae'n anodd meddwl am le â golygfa well o eistedd ar y soffa! Lle y galla i ei argymell yn fawr ac yn rhwydd i bobl eraill. Wy eisoes wedi neud sawl gwaith. / Very comfortable apartment with wonderful views of the North beach, the harbour and the sea. And all of it framed by an attractive large window. This is the biggest virtue, and the window itself. It's hard to think of somewhere that has a better view from a sofa! A place I can highly recommend to others. I already have quite a few times."

"The floors around the beds were rather dusty. The towel in my sons bedroom was dirty. The key lock was very difficult to use and I had to ring the owner to get help as the lock had jammed. She said this had happened before so why not replace it? The tap on the basin in the bathroom was wobbly and felt insecure. The property isn't well maintained. The lodge is rather expensive considering these problems. On a positive, the lodge is in a good area with easy access to Tenby and Pembroke. Plenty of parking by the lodge and a nice big kitchen which is great for cooking and eating in."

"We had a great stay at Lamphey Lodge and we'd definitely love to return. The owners were friendly and made it clear that they were at hand if we needed them. We enjoyed counting sheep and chilling out at the lodge. Great local beach - Freshwater East, very easy to visit Tenby (only 15-20 mins) away and beautiful national trust beaches within a reasonable drive. I couldn't find a notebook to leave comments for a few small improvements that you'd only notice if you were staying at the property, but nothing that spoilt our stay or worth a mention in a review."

"What a lovely well appointed homely cosy cottage. It is one of the cleanest rental homes we have stayed at and it makes a real difference to the enjoyment of the holidays, we loved coming back and just chilling here after our days out. It was our first time to Wales and we have seen some beautiful areas, Stackpole, Barafundle, Amroth, Saundersfoot and Colby woodlands. Our daughter enjoyed the surfing waves at Manorbier, Newgale and Whitesands Bay. Marloes was a lovely walking area. We will be back to the delightful property."
