Guests say

Pipistrelle Cottage is a charming and cosy retreat, ideal for small families with pets. Guests appreciate its peaceful rural setting, convenient location for exploring Pembrokeshire, and welcoming hosts. While some minor cleanliness issues were noted, the overall experience is highly regarded, with special mentions of the local pub and the thoughtful welcome package.

The cottage received praise for its clean kitchen and bathroom, but some guests noted dust and debris under furniture. The cleanliness was satisfactory for most, but there is room for improvement.

The location is highly praised for its peaceful rural setting and proximity to local attractions, the coastline, and a welcoming local pub, making it an ideal base for exploring North Pembrokeshire.

Guests found the cottage comfortable and cosy, perfectly sized for small groups. The covered parking was appreciated, and the overall ambience contributed to a pleasant retreat.

The cottage is well-equipped, with guests expressing satisfaction with the amenities provided. However, suggestions for additional cleaning tools and an extra oven shelf indicate that there is some room for enhancement in facilities and maintenance.

The hosts' thoughtfulness is evident through the welcome package, which included Welsh cakes, jam, and fresh eggs. While this gesture was well-received, it should be noted that such gifts are a kind bonus and not guaranteed.

  • Carrie LOBJOIT

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this fabulous cottage, perfectly sized for two people and two small dogs. The cottage exuded charm and cosiness, making it an ideal retreat. The covered parking was a welcome feature, given the unpredictable weather. The cottages on site all looked delightful, and the local pub was a great find. The cottage was well-equipped, although a small vacuum cleaner or a new broom would be a useful addition. Despite this minor point, we highly recommend this charming accommodation.
