Thank you so much for letting us stay in your lovely Cottage. We have had a fab week, especially the children who have made some special friends. Its been a bonus that the weather has been so hot. People on site have been friendly and helpful. Great to have use of the pool too. We will be back and we will tell our friends and family. Egan, August 2010 ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- We had a lovely time. Cottage was very well equiped. Kids loved the table tennis and pool and just playing outside on the grass. Folly Farm, Dinosaur Experience and Chocolate Factory all worth a visit. Would definitely recommend to friends. Dysons, August 2010. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- We all had a delightful week. Tenby South beach is highly recommended on a sunny day. Easy parking and a playground nearby. The Dinosaur Experience was a godsend on a wet day. But the Pemberton Chocolate Farm is not to be missed when raining, as is Folly Farm. However, the best part of our stay was being able to swim in the heated pool on site. We did use the drier on rainy days. We found the cottage lovely and clean. We had a great time. A lovely place for a family to spend a week - rain, hail or shine. Thank you and god bless all who stay here. Thomas and Hughes family (Australia), July 2010. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- Comfortable, clean cottage. Well equiped. Fantastic weather and lovely beaches. Boys loved the swimming pool too. Butchers, June 2010. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- Lovely Cottage and great location for exploring. Having brilliant sunshine for our two week stay helped too. Made good use of the swimming pool with the kids. Will recommend to friends and family. Tom, Roo, Izzy and Will, April 2010. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- Everything was absolutely perfect. Spotlessly clean. All the equipment we needed. Perfect for children (shame the weather wasn't a bit nicer). We wil definitely be recommending Old Tom's Cottage to all our friends and family. Les, Nicky, Ella and Minnie, March 2010. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- A very relaxing weekend had by all of us. We visited Saundersfoot, Tenby and Heatherton. The cottage was home from home, spotless, very modern and family friendly. Thanks for a fantastic break. Thomas', March 2010. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- It was an amazing week of relaxing and walking the countryside and coast. The cottage was perfect with everything we needed inside. The weather was sunny and beautiful all week. Will be back very soon. Gary, Stacey and puppy Juno, March 2010. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- Once again a lovely stay in Tenby. The cottage was immaculate again. The kitchen is a nice new addition. We have been very lucky and have had some really sunny weather. Thanks again for providing us with such lovely facitilies. Old Court Barn, September 2009. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- We've had a lovely week. Been able to dodge showers. Cottage was very cosy and we felt at home very quickly. The cot was only just big enough for our two year old, otherwise, everything was as we would have wanted it. Tenby South beach was great and Barrafundel was beautiful - well worth the trek. Pembroke Castle was really interesting and very good value. The kids loved the Dinosaur Park. The Chocolate Factory was perfect for a very wet day and Heatherton was great for the older kids. Nice meal at the Carew Inn. Best to book as it was full when we went. Gardners, August 2009. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- We have had a really, really lovely holiday. The Cottage was perfectly placed to visit Pembrokeshire. We never seemed too far away from anywhere. The Cottage has thoughtful little touches like black out blinds, cleaning things, plenty of crockery etc.. Places worth a mention, Folly Farm, Narbeth Creative Cafe, Dinosaur Park, Solva, Bluestone. Beaches - Little Haven has great rockpools. Whitesands and Freshwater West lovely. Tenby is great if you have lots to carry as you can park close by. Saundersfoot good - clean and carparking next to beach. Thanks for a fab holiday in a lovely clean house. Limberts, July 2009. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- Lovely cottage. Felt relaxed and comfortable straight away. Lovely beach at Tenby with sunbeds, parasols and facilities. Beautiful beaches at Newgale. No facilities expect WC's, but stunning location. Fantastic food at the Carew Inn. St Davids Bay and Cathedral worth a visit. Fishguard not really worth a visit. Photographers note - Skomer Island trip excellent for birds and wildlife. Dave and Marion, June 2009. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- Love the new kitchen. Great to have a freezer. Had a great time as we always do, even though the weather was not so nice this time. Hope to be back again next year. Only negative was lack of hot water and pressure in the shower. [Owners comment - thank you for your comments, we have since completely re-done the bathroom, which includes an electric power shower!!). Hattons, April 2009. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- Lovely, clean and Comfortable Cottage. Recommend Haverfordwest and St Davids - both interesting places to visit. Too many beautiful beaches to mention them all but Saundersfoot is the best for children. Folly Farm is an essential visit if you have children. Lots to see and do for good or bad weather. Paddock Inn, not cheap but good food. Hope to come back again. Terry's, 2009. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- Fantastic weather and beautiful coastline. Thank you for letting us stay here with Birt 'the dog' in a lovely Cottage. All of us looking forward to staying again.

Guilds, October 2008. ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- Great location to see and do loads. We thought Folly Farm and Dinosaur Experience were good. Chocolate Factory in Pemberton worth a visit if wet. Beaches were lovely. We managed Tenby and Manorbier.

Its filled with warmth and class - a rarity in self catering accommodation. De Waal, June 2008 ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- Spotless and homely cottage with many thoughtful extras. Well deserving of 5* rating. We liked Heatherton for kids, the Marina in Saundersfoot for fish and chips, Narbeth for concentration of smart shops and galleries ( a bit of Surrey in Pembrokeshire!), No. 25 Café in Tenby and Amroth for rock pools. Facilities at Ivy Tower of course! – Dunn, 2008 ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- Our second visit – nothing changed, still a lovely place to relax in – lovely cottage.

Will pass details of Old Tom’s Cottage to friends – sorry to go on! – Trott, 2008 ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- What a beautiful cottage. Spotless and very homely. We have had fantastic weather and 5 days of sunshine, never dropping below 26oC. The coastal walks are fantastic. St David’s is definitely worth a trip and the local Cawl (lamb stew) was welcome nourishment for hungry walkers. Thank you. We hope to be back and will definitely recommend it! – Hutchings-Rangers, 2008 ---------------------------------------- o O o ---------------------------------------- Cottage is as lovely as we remember. Extra storage in the kitchen was a great help and the new decoration looked beautiful. The walk from Broadhaven south, around Stackpole was super. We had a picnic on Barafundle Beach.
