A comfortable & well-equipped cottage near the top of the village.

Digital 'Freesat' TV is installed, also DVD & stereo Radio/CD player. All bed linen, tea towels, bath mats & washing up materials are provided. Sitting room & bedrooms have fitted carpets. Within a short drive are the wild Preseli Hills, lovely Gwaun Valley & the historic towns of St. Davids, the 'smallest city' with its wonderful Cathedral, Fishguard, & Newport with many good shops & restaurants. Watch leaping dolphins & porpoises from Strumble Head, surf or fish on Newgale's mile-long beach, take a boat trip around the sea bird islands, a day ferry to Ireland, visit a working woollen mill or sheepdog display. Come in Spring for the abundance of wild flowers, or early Autumn to see the seal pups in the rocky coves, or find a quiet corner if you just want to relax & unwind.

Fantastic place to stay!

The cottage and the village of Trefin is like going back in time. Perfect spot for walking the coastal path to find secret beaches where you can have the beach to yourselves. A truly beautiful part of Pembrokeshire. The cottage is lovely and comfortable and has everything you need for a perfect holiday. The owner Adrian is the perfect host and we cannot wait to return.

Great location and fabulous price which reflexe the 'old fashioned' nature of the property. If yoyve got mobility problems... note the 'hike' to the bathroom via lots of steps at night. Garden fabulous!! Pub and buses and small bay in the village!! Note the electricity charge at the end of your stay. Not a problem but be aware.Overall, we would definitely stay again.

Easter Weekend Break

The cottage was clean and as described being warm & cosy. The location of the cottage in Trefin is great for exploring the Pembrokeshire Coast. We enjoyed some really lovely coastal walks with our dog and everywhere we went was both human & dog friendly. This was short break, so we have more to see and do there. We would book again.

Great place to stay

We came here for a week in August and despite the weather being a bit disappointing we had a great time-Trefin is well located for St David’s, White Sands Bay but also not too far for day trips to Tenby and other tourist spots. The house had all the basics we needed (reminded me of my grandparents house), was great value for money and we would recommend to anyone wanting a break in Pembrokeshire.

Great location, Friendly host.

This is an old cottage where the décor, although clearly renewed recently, has been kept as if it was the 1950s reminding us of holidays at Grandmas! But it has the addition of all mod cons you might expect - power shower, microwave, satellite TV and internet etc. The Kitchen/diner is separated from the washing up and laundry areas, although all are connected and easy to use. Good size for both double and single bedroom and plenty of storage space. Checking in was easy although the instructions for how things work would benefit from being collected into one folder. You need to know that electricity is extra as the rental charge is modest. We enjoyed the garden area and the ease of connection to the local area. A couple of small glitches were both fixed the same day by the host. We can understand why, reading the visitors book, so many folk clearly return again.

Trefin cottage

Host, Adrian made check in easy and our stay enjoyable. Comfortable cottage, photos show it as is. Close to cafe and good pub. Coastal path easily accessible from just outside village. St Davids an easy six mile drive. Only downside is no shop in village, nearest is Spar at petrol station in Square & Compass, c. 1.5 miles away.

Sweet cottage - well-priced & perfectly located

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage - whilst it is a little dated, you get what you pay for. It is comfortable, has everything you need for self-catering, and a lovely little private garden too. Would recommend Adrian adds some details to his listing, such as the requirement for dogs to remain downstairs. This was not an issue for us, but would have been great to know this in advance. Otherwise Adrian is an excellent host, and was very helpful. Would recommend!

Lovely quiet village

Basic cottage but comfortable. Was surprised to find on arrival that electricity used was to be paid at the end of the week. Had to keep the heating on as the cottage is damp. Signs of damp that had been painted over. Once mentioned to the owner he refunded the electric cost.

A relaxing week away

We stayed in the cottage with our dog for a week in September. Adrian, (who lives next door), greeted us on our arrival but respected our privacy during our stay, adding that we can knock if we needed anything. It is an ideal location for reaching the A487, where you can easily access many of the local beauty spots in either direction. Trefin is a lovely little village with a nice pub serving good meals. Thursday night open mic night is well worth visiting, many talented musicians and singers. The cottage has everything you'll need for a comfortable week, lots of information leaflets in the drawers but Adrian can also advise if stuck. Lovely garden to sit in if the weather's nice. Reading the electric meter, working out what you've used and what you owe is well recorded and easy to do, just leave the money on the table. We used less than £10 for the whole week, as we were out most days and ate our evening meal out a fair bit. We only needed the electric fire on a couple of evenings but there are also plenty of electric radiators in each room, if needed. Someone had written in the visitor's book that, 'the cottage and village grow on you' and we certainly found this to be the case. We hope to return again, despite the long drive for us. Thank you Adrian.

The cottage was lovely and quaint. Ideally situated next to lovely walks and scenery (as shown in photos). The cottage was out dated but not a problem. Only issue that the windows need upgrading as we found it to be cold and then would need to use extra electric which would put the cost up. Overall a lovely stay.
These walks are a 5 minute walk from the cottage.
