We loved our stay at Puffin Cottage. The area is peaceful and not far from the coastal walks. The cottage is clean and well equipped. The owner was a lovely host who left us a nice welcome pack. We would definitely like to stay there again.

A great home from home, its a country cottage that oozes yester year nostalgia, its not a hotel appartment, its cosy, comfortable, with cottage windows, wide sills and is filled with quirky art and ornaments. The cottage has all youll need, a well appointed if compact kitchen, an ample lounge and two roomy, very comfortable bedrooms. The internet is a bit hit and miss but hey... youre miles from anywhere.The location is quiet, a rural farmscape over looking the distant coast, literally sea views from every window ( although it has to be said all the windows do face in the same direction.) This is an ideal base to explore the northern reaches of the Pembroke coast, with White Sands Bay only a ten minute drive down country lanes.Puffin is a beautiful little cottage, highly recommended.

We had such a lovely week in Puffin Cottage! A cosy home from home in the middle of beautiful views and lots of great places to visit near by. Clean, comfortable and very well equipped with everything we needed and more, including a really thoughtful welcome pack! Thank you Jo for helping to make a wonderful week to remember!
