Spent my first four nights on The Pembroke Coastal Path enjoying Steve’s company, hospitality and local knowledge. We seemed to be two of a kind and he even cooked his ‘special’ for me! It was the perfect introduction to Pembrokeshire, THANK YOU!

"Very good"

8.0

The location was perfect and Steve was kind and helpful. My room was lovely - comfortable, excellent pillows, cosy and plenty of hot water. Super too to have access to a kitchen with good coffee, fresh eggs, milk & butter. I’d definitely rebook 🌟 The local buses were good - on time/up to date online timetables etc. I also used TfW fflecsi service which I’d recommend. Nourish bakery was first class and I really liked Cove cafe too.

"Wonderfully welcoming and helpful. Clean and comfortable with decent facilities. Dog friendly."

10.0

Staff could not have been more kind and helpful and welcoming. Made a big impact being offered a lift in pouring rain, when the train was late, even when it inconvenienced the owner. Could not be more grateful. Room was comfortable, good facilities including wifi, adequate breakfast. And wonderfully the hostel has a dog friendly room available, so was able to bring the dog. Thank you very much. Would definitely stay again if I was in the area.

One can't have everything - I was travelling to the Port, so a little bit of a walk - but was fine and happy to do it in the morning.

Such a lovely place to stay and Steve was such a gent. Had everything we needed and was very clean and tidy. The building is gorgeous. Steve really cares about his guests and myself, husband and pup got a lovely warm welcome.

Everything about this stay was beyond expectations. I could not recommend it more. It felt a bit like staying in a friend's home in the best way possible.
