“Good situation on the estuary.”

Good location to explore the area.

Good location to explore the area.

Mr Muscat August 2019

“The pictures on the website are quite different - has the property changed ownership?”

The lower patio wasn't as inviting as shown. There was a large green bag full of garden rubbish left by the wall. There was no towel rail in the bath room which is a bit of a pain with a family of four.

- Mr Muscat, August 2019
Mrs Green August 2019

“As a family we would have preferred WiFi but acknowledge that others would see this as a benefit!”

The house has everything we needed and fabulous grounds. The owner was very attentive, when contacted, and was on hand if we needed anything while respecting our privacy. The cottage is fabulously located within Pembrokeshire, we had a fun packed fortnight exploring the area.

- Mrs Green, August 2019
Mr Hand July 2019

“Lydstep is perfect for a family holiday--- great view, close to shops and restaurant, powerful shower, well equipped kitchen with sea view.”

Everything is same as what was described on the website. The only minor issue my family had was that there wasn't a hoover in the house. It can be a bit difficult to clean the floor when we came back from the sea with sand in shoes and swimingwares. Apart from that, we (5 people family) enjoyed every minute of our holiday at Lydstep.

Mrs Hornbrook July 2019

“Lovely house with great views over the marina.”

- Mrs Hornbrook, July 2019
Mr Batley July 2019

“Lovely holiday house in a great location to explore Pembrokeshire.”

Would definitely recommend to friends. Loved the garden and views, and the bath has been replaced with a combined shower and bath which is perfect! The house was very clean and tidy and well presented, and had everything that we needed. It was also child friendly for our two year old daughter, with two gates in the garden to keep kids safe. Off road parking was fine for us with two cars (one estate) and just takes a little care.

- Mr Batley, July 2019
Mrs Parry-willis September 2018

“Although the cottage was clean, it was incredibly uncomfortable and cold.”

We had to use the heating through the night and the bed left us both with terrible back pain so much so we came home early. The noise from next doors dogs and the yacht club was annoying early ING in the morning when ur trying to rest in. The owner clearly takes pride in the care of the cottage however when we mentioned that we were uncomfortable with our stay and that we were leaving earlier than we wanted to we had no reply. We were disappointed with her as we felt let down and we'd paid a lot of money for this holiday. All in all won't be visiting again.

Mr Oglesby July 2018

“This Fabulous Holiday Home was an unexpected surprise as I booked at the last minute while holidaying up the coast at Stop and Call, Goodwick.”

Rang Sykes and a nice young lady found this for us. Perfect in every way. Relaxing after days out at the beach. The area is great, Yacht club next door. serving fabulous food. The river Cleddau ( salt water ) at the bottom of the garden, where we sat on an evening watching the sailing boats go by. Will go again next summer.

Mrs Yarwood June 2018

“The accommodation was really good but there was an issue with the bath rather to deep to ge t in an out would be far better with a shower cubicle and a much lower bath much safer .”

- Mrs Yarwood, June 2018
Mr Cook June 2018

“Nice clean cottaqe, well looked after.”

Large kitchen. Amazing garden and views/access to the harbour and foreshore.

- Mr Cook, June 2018
Mr Hill June 2018

“The house and its location was lovely, although excellent weather helped with this considerably!”

! The outside space is the best part of the house, so not sure whether I'd feel as strong had the welsh weather been at its worse ;o( There was nothing with the house that concerned me or that I felt was inaccurate from the listing. From reading other feedbacks, I didn't have any issue with parking and I too have an estate car. Whilst I accept the parking requires caution/care, it isn't a problem in my view although there is a big drop from the drive to the front of house which might not be obvious from pictures or when arriving after dark. I only have praise for the house and its cleanliness, and for the considerable creature comforts it supplies. I have no criticisms, but I have some constructive suggestions that would have enhanced my stay, which I hope will be helpful :- Provision of a dishcloth/sponge/scourer for washing up (liquid was supplied) Provision of toilet roll(s) Provision of kitchen roll(s) Provision of some milk sachets for making a tea/coffee on arrival if late at night (long-life sachets would be fine) House sleeps 5, so 5 garden chairs would be nice (4 provided) Weather was in mid/low 20s - which was fabulous!! - but if cold/wet, not obvious how to use central heating (didn't see any instructions), and instruction was not to use log burner. Bathroom shower quite restrictive, as you have to sit in bath to use shower, some change of design would help make this a better facility for a proper stand-up shower. As it is now, its a nice bath (lots of hot water), but not practical as a shower.

Mrs Dowson June 2017

“Parking a nightmare drive way not very wide and a long drop at the end no good ...”

Parking a nightmare drive way not very wide and a long drop at the end no good for a long car which we had also the bath is no good for people eho are small it is high and have promlems getting out which i am overall it was lovely

- Mrs Dowson, June 2017
Mrs Lush August 2016

“A perfect peaceful setting for us, lots to watch and enjoy at the end of the garden.”

A spacious clean home. A thoughtful welcome gift of scones, jam, tea and coffee welcomed us along with a bottle of wine in the fridge. What a surprise. Thank you. The only thing I would put on the description is that there is a functional shower over the bath. To be addressed....the window in the small bedroom did not open however this did not affect our stay, plus some more tumblers or 1/2 pint glasses and mugs (instead of tea cups) would be useful, but that's just us. The staff at Sykes were great with their communication and advise and I thank them too. All in all, the holiday was just perfect. Thank you Lydstep.

- Mrs Lush, August 2016
Mrs Grice April 2015

“The view from the garden down the river was wonderful.”

I could have spent the whole 7 days just sitting there. Fabulous! Heating in the house was brilliant. Lovely Kitchen with good appliances. Very comfy beds and cosy duvets. Super dining area with lots of room.

- Mrs Grice, April 2015

Lovely house decor.

- Mr Smedley, June 2014
Mrs Duffy April 2014

“Peaceful surroundings, gorgeous views over the estuary.”

Lovely short walk to the marina cafe. Very clean and presentable accommodation. Friendly and helpful owner.

- Mrs Duffy, April 2014
Mr Tompsett October 2013

“The home from home feel of the property and its proximity to the estuary which allowed us to watch the river traffic in quiet moments.”

- Mr Tompsett, October 2013
Mrs Bridge June 2013

“Lovely big garden with great views across the estuary,”

- Mrs Bridge, June 2013

The house was extremely comfortable and the owner a pleasure to deal with. This part of Wales is a joy to visit and our holiday was enhanced by this beautiful home.
