Snaptrip says
Foxglove Cottage in South Wales & Pembrokeshire is highly praised for its peaceful and quiet location, cleanliness, and comfort. Guests appreciate the warm welcome and helpfulness of the hosts, Ian and Carol. The property is well-situated for exploring the Pembrokeshire coast and countryside, with many noting the convenience for walking and sightseeing. The cottage's amenities and thoughtful touches, such as maps and local knowledge, contribute to a delightful stay, although the mention of a missing hamper suggests that gifts may not always be provided as expected.
Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers consistently mention that the cottage is 'spotlessly clean', 'warm', and 'comfortable', indicating a high standard of cleanliness that contributes positively to their overall experience.
The location is frequently described as 'peaceful', 'quiet', and 'beautiful', with easy access to the Pembrokeshire coast and countryside. The rural setting is appreciated for its tranquillity and proximity to nature, although one review mentions narrow lanes which could be a consideration for some visitors.
Guests find the cottage 'cosy', 'warm', and 'comfortable', with several reviews highlighting the quality of the beds and the presence of en suite bathrooms. The comfort of the cottage is a recurring theme in the feedback.
The cottage is well-equipped with 'abundant heating and hot water', a 'washer/dryer', and 'excellent WiFi'. However, some guests noted the absence of garden furniture and the impact of COVID-19 restrictions on the availability of certain items, which slightly affects the score.
While guests mention the provision of maps and local knowledge, there is only one mention of a hamper which was expected but not provided. As this is an isolated comment and gifts are not a consistent theme in the reviews, it is not possible to accurately score thoughtfulness based on gifts.

The beds in the cottage were really comfortable and we have all the facilities we need for our stay. The scenery around the cottage was beautiful and the owners were especially helpful in suggesting the local iconic places for viewing and visiting.

Close to many wonderful places of interest (but not too close) and great for enthusiastic walkers and those who like a more leisurely holiday. Hosts were super friendly and helpful. Highly recommend Foxglove Cottage.
