Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests found Goldfinch clean and well-presented, contributing to a pleasant stay. However, a few guests mentioned areas that could benefit from deeper cleaning or attention, such as crockery and cutlery, which slightly impacted the overall impression.
The location is highly praised for its tranquility, beautiful views, and proximity to local attractions and amenities. It serves as an excellent base for exploring the Pembrokeshire coast, with easy access to beaches and walks.
The majority of guests found the property comfortable, noting the spaciousness and the quality of the beds. Some guests suggested that the sofas and patio furniture could be updated for enhanced comfort.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-equipped kitchen and the inclusion of en suites. However, guests have mentioned that some kitchenware and appliances could be refreshed, and there were comments about the Wi-Fi being intermittent.
While the reviews reflect positive experiences, there is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate a level of thoughtfulness from the hosts. Therefore, it is not possible to provide a score in this category.
About this property
This superb Milford Haven cottage is on the lower side of two semi-detached properties, with the added advantage of a separate, large private terrace area overlooking the tidal estuary. The direct access down stone steps to the shingle beach make it perfect for walks along the shoreline, watching small boats pass by and enjoy the variety of birds overhead and on the water. With parking by the cottage and more shared private parking just up the road there is plenty of room for your own boat too. The delightfully spacious rooms of this Milford Haven cottage are individually designed and decorated, and the two Juliet balconies give wonderful views from two of the bedrooms as well as the living area. A perfect setting, all year round.
The town of Milford Haven overlooks the Cleddau Waterway and boasts a pretty marina, interesting shops, tea rooms and restaurants including those which serve freshly caught fish. The beaches, coastal path and lovely towns of Pembrokeshire are within easy reach.

The cleanliness was of the highest standard. Goldfinch's location next to the tidal creek is brilliant, just watching the tide rising and falling. The adjacent woodland and river were awesome. Further a filed Goldfinch provides easy access to both secluded beaches and coastal walks as well as to the major towns of west Pembroke. Recommend Goldfinch as high value for the price and will be back. Thank you to the owners and Sykes Holidays.

Weather not brilliant. It is my third stay at Goldfinch Cottage. It is in a very good place to enable you to travel around Pembrokeshire. A small improvement would be if a hand towel was provided for the downstairs toilet. We also had 6 adults staying and only had 3 wine glasses. Otherwise we recommend this cottage and do plan on returning in the future.
