It was great to be able to talk and cook. The enclosed back garden was just right for our dog. Books and jigsaws greatly enjoyed by grandson. On the negative side was the soiled pants in a drawer in the games room :( My husband and I slept downstairs and on a few nights were disturbed by the noise of guests arriving / going out in the B and B next door. The spot lights were activated lighting the room brightly and setting the dog off in fits of barking! Lounge space was … tight. Didn’t appreciate / consider the settee sizes and floor area available when looking at photos. Thank you ##### Rebecca C.

There was loads of space for 4 adults and a dog and the garden was secure. Amazing beaches not far away. We love Barafundle Bay beach and we enjoyed our visit to the Bosherston Lily Ponds, Caldey Island and Dobby's grave at Freshwater West. We did walk to Freshwater East which took just over 30 minutes and was a very steep walk down to the beach but a lovely beach. I did contact Julia while we were there and she responded very quickly. The property is a great place to stay. ##### Sue B.

Wasn’t as close to Freshwater East as we hoped. It is possible to walk (up the lane from the cottage) towards Freshwater Inn, but there are some very steep steps to negotiate down onto the beach, takes about 45 minutes. The cottage is great, cosy & well equipped. The weather was so good we enjoyed sitting in the garden in the afternoon sun. Easy to make the cottage warm on those couple of cooler evenings. All in all a very enjoyable week. ##### Adrienne D.
