Very nice secluded cottage on a small scale holidaypark. In the weekends there's a pub open on the premises so you can have a pint and there's a lovely heated outdoor swimming pool. The cottage was charming and very clean on arrival. We found this area of Wales the best, terrific beaches, nice little towns. We would come back! Please note that the property is rented by Cottages and before arrival there is no direct communication with the owners of the parc.
