So relaxing…

Such a lovely relaxing and quiet place to stay. The Carthouse is very well equipped with everything you need. It is very cosy and so comfortable. It is furnished to a very high standard. The Alpacas at the end of the garden are a joy and Charlie the dog is so friendly. Lovely to sit in the garden on the bench watching all the birds too. Visited Newport Sands nearby which was lovely beach.

Sorry you felt the dog had to be on a lead. Glad you enjoyed your stay. Dogs are allowed off the lead in the cottage garden. While walking through the yard and on the coast path dogs should be on a lead.

My husband and I celebrated our 30th Anniversary here and couldn’t have been happier. This is a beautifully restored and updated stone cottage in a truly stunning setting, on a lovely farm with views of the sea and the hills. It was a perfect location to explore the Pembrokeshire coastal path and visit St David’s. The hosts’ recommendations for eating out were great and the cottage had everything necessary to cook in as well. Finally, a highlight was being visited by their wonderfully polite farm dog and being greeted by their alpacas! We whole heartedly recommend this place to anyone.

Short stay before getting ferry

We had to book this late given the chaos in Holyhead. The property is so well laid out and comfortable. Also convenient to Fishguard when getting the ferry.
