Could not fault Manor Lodge. Suited our needs perfectly.We needed 3 bathrooms and 2 dogs allowed.Lots of places to go within easy driving distance and a lovely hot tub to relax in at the end of the day.There was a log burner but we only used it once as it was warm enough with the underfloor heating on.Well equipped kitchen with everything you could need.Even a warm doggie shower outside.Just perfect.

Well, what can we say apart from WOW!! We have stayed at so many lovely places in the UK with our dog but this Lodge outshines anywhere else so far hands down! It is truly secondary to none! 20 mins drive to big Tesco’s; Lidl; Aldi and other shops in Haverfordswest. The Lodge itself is beautiful with a superb large enclosed garden; a wonderful and thoughtful Welcome Basket and fresh milk in the fridge for a much needed cuppa after our 4.5hr drive; a lovely log burner with a basket of logs and more available if needed, a fantastic HotTub that we didn’t get to use sadly due to pretty naff weather; an outdoor warm water hose for washing off sandy paws and tummies after a few hours at the beach; individually sized dog drying coats (game changer for drying their coats with no damp dog smell - so impressed that we are looking to buy one for our Jack Russell) a laundry/cloak room; washing detergents were available but we did replace what we used; dog first aid kit; swing ball no less!! The list of features and amenities we could praise is endless!! Loved the en-suite wet room to the Master Bedroom! We are early risers and found the main bedroom and the lounge area quite chilly at 7am but on mentioning it to Lynn, our lovely host, after she kindly checked in to see if we were settled in ok, the heating was remote accessed and increased within a couple of minutes! Amazing! I generally travel with most of my kitchen appliances when we go away but must admit that most of my things, if not all, were left in the car!! I’ve never known a kitchen to be so well equipped! It blew my mind..anything and everything you could think of was provided. The only bit we found confusing were the rubbish and recycling rules! So much to adhere to! I ended up leaving rubbish on the kitchen worktop and designated bin sorting out duties to my better half 😅 Absolutely amazing and we can’t wait to book again for next year. Thank you Lynn and Nick! Big thumbs up from Kenny; Lainey and Jack the dog 👍
