"The Woodlands Lower Level has lots of space inside and out."
It has great climbing frames and swings which our 3 year old grandson loved. There is more than enough seating for everyone in the conservatories and living room. You can hear the noise from the nearby dual carriageway which we hadn't realised before we arrived. There are places such as Coppett Hall beach, plus many other beaches, and attractions such as Folly Farm within a 10 minute drive so it's a good location for families.
Hi Sandra,
Many thanks feedback.
Excited see all heart warming responses from holiday makers and returning bookings 2027 which look forward to.
Lot of effort in managing grounds holiday season and attraction of
goats,peacocks,turkeys,geese etc children love.
In turn I know the animals love all the fuss.
Know you did say you spent lot time outside with grt grandson.
Just to clarify, no dual carriageway in Stepaside/pleasant valley only main A477 into Pembrokeshire, road only approaches one side grounds of Woodlands Country cottage grounds being 3 fields away, cottage itself, which is completely isolated (1/2 mile nearest neighbour) set in acres and acres.
As holiday rental this is indeed a unique combination.
The property is popular because of close proximity to whole of Pembrokeshire national pk easy access and being approx 1/2 mile start of Coastline, approx 2 miles popular Folly farm attraction, along with Manor Park and Heatherton in close proximity, no shortage of Michelin star and highly recommended restaurants, country pubs etc. The Woodlands being natural habitat of all wildlife and birds imaginable and a history dating back to 17th century. I’m pleased that you spent much of holiday outside enjoying the grounds as they are intended. Kind regards Mike.

"We have just returned from the best 3 generation family holiday which surpassed all our expectations."
The house was so fascinating with space catering for 5 grandchildren ranging in ages from 5 to 15 plus 6 adults. The outside space was equally brilliant allowing all the children to spend oodles of time outside playing football, golfing and playing on the play equipment instead of screen watching. We all came away wanting to return. Thank you to Mike and Sue for their care and helpful suggestions. Carmarthen Morrisons delivery was a life saver! Thank you for an unforgettable stay.
Hi Angela, many thanks for the warm feedback it truly, goes a long way. You were wonderful guests and hope to see you back very soon!! Wishing you best wishes for rest of year Mike..

"We booked for a 4 generation family holiday and were not disappointed."
The whole experience was amazing, the house is full of character with all the space and equipment you need. Beautifully clean and well furnished.
The grounds are stunning and there is all the space you need to walk, relax or play sport.
Our host met us on arrival to show us round and was available by mobile if required (which he wasn't).
Fully recommend this house to book and we will be visiting again.

"Had a lovely holiday at Woodlands Lower Level."
Very spacious downstairs with good appliances and a well equipped kitchen. Outdoors also fantastic; we thoroughly enjoyed watching the birds, butterflies and dragonflies on the feeders and in the meadow. The mown area was great for sitting in the sun or playing outdoor games. Lots of interesting coastline in easy reach.
Hi Helen, many thanks for your feedback. At end of season it’s nice to know that guests enjoyed themselves. You are welcome back at anytime and were fantastic guests!! Kind regards Mike..

"Lovely location and facilities, and helpful friendly host."
Would have benefited from a toilet on the ground floor
Hi Dave, many thanks for feedback.
Look forward to seeing you at anytime.
I do agree, that where as it would be possibly beneficial to have a downstairs toilet facility, due to the cottage being 17th century we are extremely limited as to where we could put one. However, we do have 3 seperate bathroom and shower facilities which generally, compensates. Wishing you best wishes rest of year, hope to see you again, kind regards Mike

"We found that the Woodlands was a fantastic base for our holiday in Pembrokeshire."
The accommodation is spacious and well appointed. Our family of 10 people had lots of space to spread out. The outside space was also great with swings and slides for the younger ones and a football pitch, lawns and sun loungers for the older ones.
We would have no hesitation in staying there again.

"What an absolutely amazing base for our family holiday."
It’s just a shame that the good weather kept us at the beach and we couldn’t make the most of the amazing garden. We will definitely be looking to return again. The communication with the owners was also second to none. Mike and Sue are just so lovely!!

"Had the best time here."
Three generations. The home and gardens are amazing. Kids were outside all the time we were there. House is beautiful. Very well looked after and every comfort you could think of.
If you are staying and plan to eat in then i would recommend that you bring the basics with you. There is absolutely nothing there so bring salt,pepper, cooking oil. Tea bags, coffee, sugar and milk.
It will save you from purchasing it all again.
They do provide washing up liquid, washing clothes,tea towels and dishwasher tablets.
Highly recommended and would 100% stay here again. Sue and family are very friendly and helpful. Couldn't help enough with any questions I had.
Thank you so much
Hi Karla, thank you for warm feedback!! You are all welcome back at anytime. We used to supply a welcome pack including sugar, tea, coffee etc and then came Covid. We had so many restrictions forced upon us and that being one of them. Lot of restrictions were never lifted and so we supplied two bottles of wine as a way of compensating. We will look into starting welcome pack up again. Best wishes for rest of year and look forward to seeing you again!! Kind regards Mike..

"The location of the property is perfect for exploring the area, with a good choice of beaches, forest and coastal walks, castles, adventure parks and nature reserves within easy reach."
The property itself has a large garden with goats, chickens , turkeys, peacocks and geese to make friends with. Also in the garden there are loungers, a slide and swings, a football pitch and more. Ideal for kids and adults to relax. Inside the house there are light and airy spaces to spread out and relax, but there are also some dark and rather cramped areas such as the dining room. Space to walk around is also tight in the kitchen where there is an Aga that is constantly putting out heat which can be a bit overwhelming in summer. As the one who did most of the washing up during our stay (other than that which went in the dish washer), I could have done with a drainer beside the sinks in the kitchen. More shelf space would have been welcome in bathrooms, too. The owners were easy to contact and swift to respond to queries and snags. All-in-all, we found the Woodlands a charming place to stay. There was not a corner in the house that didn't have some objet d'art or interesting item of bric-a-brac to catch your eye. Much of this looks precious and fragile, so it may be vulnerable if young guests get over excited. I hope this helps to prepare potential guests for what they will find if they choose to stay at The Woodlands Lower Level. All I can say is that we liked it.

"The Woodlands is an interesting and comfortable house, amply spacious for our 3 generations family of 9."
We really appreciated the comfy beds. The kitchen is well equipped and we rose to the challenge of cooking on an AGA for the first time. We used the Conservatory as a dining room because it is light and airy, nearer to the kitchen and we liked the round table. The children made excellent use of the safe and secluded garden for outdoor play. We enjoyed the facilities on offer in Tenby and Saundersfoot and the surf boarding in Manorbier was declared the best ever!

"A real treat of a holiday house."
Very spacious, with gorgeous outdoor areas (complete with friendly animals!) and fun, attractive decor. Caring, generous and communicative hosts, available when needed but giving plenty of privacy too. The aga made everything in the house quite warm in Summer but it was a great feature and would be extremely cosy for Winter stays too! Highly recommended property!

"The location of the house in a secluded valley was wonderful."
It was picturesque and peaceful, whilst being close to facilities in Kilgetti and nearby resorts and villages.
The spacious property was comfortably furnished and decorated in a farmhouse style.
We all enjoyed the garden and grounds surrounding the house. Our granddaughter loved playing on the climbing frame and visiting the animals.
When we arrived, the owner was on hand to show us around and made us feel very welcome.
We are keen to spend more in this lovely property!
