Dog Friendly Villas In Fishguard

Reviews

What our customers say about their holidays

• Helen - Verified booking

  This is a super little cottage, ideal for anyone wanting a quiet spot but with easy access to Fishguard and north Pembrokeshire coast.

  It is also perfect for dog owners with a secure back garden, hard floors throughout the ground floor and access from the door onto bridleways and footpaths for walking. We found it nicely decorated and furnished, really well equipped and everything supplied of a nice quality. We particularly appreciated that rather than take out the book and DVD selection a “quarantine” crate was provided for the former and antiseptic wipes for the latter, meaning it retained its home from home feel. The owner next door is very friendly, approachable and helpful but not at all intrusive. There are a couple of features of the property that you should be clear about before booking. Firstly, access is via a rough and rather bumpy track for the last 200 metres - nothing an average car can't manage going slowly but don't take your low suspension car. The trade off for this is the amazingly quiet location despite being close to the bypass. Secondly there might be one or two difficulties for those with restricted mobility.There are 4 main rooms in the property and moving from any one to another, or indeed accessing the garden, is always via a few steps. We found our 11 year old rather arthritic retriever had to be coaxed up the steps from kitchen to lounge. Similarly much of the excellent array of cooking equipment in the kitchen is accessed from a corner cupboard requiring bending and stretching in a relatively confined space. This would in no way put us off booking again. We loved it!

  We have just spent a fantastic week at Murmur Y Mor.

  What a gem - brilliant sea views from the kitchen, lounge and 2 bedrooms. The photos do not do the views justice. We loved watching the ferry coming and going and even spotted dolphins the other side of the port wall. Bring a set of binoculars to have on hand. The house is very well equipped with everything you could need. The beds were very comfortable and we all slept well with lungs full of sea air. Our kids (teens) enjoyed the pool table in the sun room. There is plenty of outdoor space - although mostly concrete, there is a decking area. We’d have liked a BBQ but we managed with our portable one. The house is clean and tidy but not sparkly new. This suited us just fine. The only tiny negative for us was that the laminate flooring downstairs isn’t laid very well and is very bouncy and creaky (noisy) to walk on. We soon got used to it though. Lots of stairs from the outside space up to the kitchen help keep you fit! The location of the house right on the coast path is fantastic. A short walk down to Goodwick in one direction and Lower Fishguard in the other. We carried kayaks and paddle boards down to Fishguard. There are steps down to an area where we could plop them straight in the water and explore the harbour mouth. We’ve had a great week and miss it already. Thank you Murmur Y Mor.

  The cottage has a lot of potential.

  Lovely location, garden was secure for dogs, kitchen was well equipped & it felt very private, lots of lovely features such as the log burner & wooden floors, staircase was very sweet & the attic room was very specious. Unfortunately, it was very run down. The double bed was incredibly uncomfortable, when we stripped the bed at the end of our stay we could see it was an old mattress with just a mattress topper in an obvious attempt to make it more comfortable. The duvet was yellow & dirty. Thankfully, the white bedding was fresh & clean. The sofa cushions were non existent, no springs or padding left in the tiny sofa & the tub chairs incredibly uncomfortable. The shower was the biggest let down with a lot of mould in the grout & excessive mould on the bathroom ceiling. Cobwebs & dust everywhere. Bedroom lighting was awful, very very dull & dark & the furniture was old & marked very badly. We don’t watch much tv on holiday but if we hadn’t been able to get out we’d have struggled as not even a fire stick & minimal channels. The cottage was very very basic & over all a let down. We still enjoyed our weekend but feel that honest reviews would be much more helpful.

  I booked this holiday for my family of six and grandparents. On arrival the cottage was spotless and clean and a real homely atmosphere. The garden is lovely with a peaceful view on the stream and woods. The kitchen has everything you need and plenty fridge and freezer space. The bedrooms are lovely and spacious and beds very comfortable. The area is very peaceful and calm, just what you need when you want some time away from busy life. I couldn't rate this place any higher and will be coming again next year. To absolutely top this place off your hosts Gwenda and Robert are lovely and welcoming, very happy to help in any way they can and Gwenda makes a lovely cup of tea. So sad to leave and the children loved it. Feel we've found our holiday spot for the foreseeable future.

  The holiday cottage was really lovely and comfortable, cleanliness was pretty good for a cottage in the countryside.

  There was some evidence of previous dog usage but it wasn't horrible, the rug in the lounge was a little bit hairy but that was it. The layout of the cottage was really lovely and it was very cosy in the chilly evenings, the garden was absolutely beautiful for the sunny days we were lucky enough to have and our 2 year old loved playing in it. The cottage was incredibly well equipped, we had everything we needed and the location was absolutely gorgeous, right in the countryside with loads of little walks to do straight from the cottage. The owners next door were so friendly and helpful and we even went to see Steve play in a band at the local pub one evening. We felt really at home and relaxed and Cwmbrandy cottage and wouldn't hesitate to stay again. Thank you so much.
