Highbury

A very clean and spacious house, and very well equipped.

The beds were very comfy. The welcome pack was wonderful, thank you Gwenda. It was a pleasure to stay in your house, we hope to return in the future.

We had an absolutely fabulous time staying at Highbury cottage, it was such a joy to explore Pembrokeshire from this beautiful place!

As a family with two young children, we initially decided to stay here because of the ideal location and the private garden and we were not disappointed. The cottage is perfecly positioned to reach many of Pembrokshire’s wonderful sights and scenes and at just over a 10 minute drive from the city of Haverfordwest, getting groceries or other supplies wasn’t an issue. As expected, our children loved playing in the garden and made a fun daily habit of visiting the chickens (and occasionally the cows) nearby. The cottage is spacious, comfortable and well-equipped. We found it very easy to find everything, it was clear that Gwenda (the hostess) put a lot of careful thought into this lovely home. Gwenda made us feel welcome and comfortable from the moment we arrived and she and her family were very kind and helpful throughout our stay at the cottage. We highly recommend this accommodation and are looking forward to returning ourselves.

The cottage was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed.

The Welcome Pack was very generous and very much appreciated on arrival. Also well placed for travelling to other areas for days out. We would definitely return in the future.

We enjoyed a great stay at Highbury, the cottage was lovely, clean, comfortable and well equipped in a good location.

I would definitely recommend.

The cottage was really lovely and very well equipped Our hostess welcomed us when we arrived and had left a great welcome pack.

Overall, a great experience, thank you.

Just returned from this delightful accommodation, where we had a wonderful stay.

The cottage, set in the rectangle of the family farm, was very comfortable, warm and clean and had everything one could possibly need, as attention to detail had been observed. The family were very friendly and helpful, as we encountered some of them each day. Would certainly recommend staying here, and places to eat - pubs and a delicious fish'n'chip restaurant - were within easy reach.

A wonderful 2nd stay at this fabulous accommodation.

The welcome pack of Welsh treats is a lovely touch and there is everything you could possibly need in the cottage to make for a very comfortable stay. We spent most of our time in the really homely kitchen with its warming range which I also cooked on, (although there is a conventional cooker as well), as we like to play games around the table but the front room is lovely and comfortable and with a huge selection of DVD’s. The location is perfect for visiting the beauty that is Pembrokeshire. We’ll definitely come back next year. A huge thanks Gwenda.

Highbury was a very comfortable and well equipped property for our week in Pembrokeshire.

Gwenda was there to welcome us when we arrived and provided a delicious welcome box of Welsh products. Parking was easy and the garden seating area was lovely to come back to for a cuppa at the end of each day. The property was well located for reaching all parts of Pembrokeshire.

On arrival we met the lovely Gwenda who showed us around the spacious cottage.

There was a generous welcome basket which we devoured! Unfortunately we had issues with several things - The beds in particular, the main bed we found we ended up in the middle due to the well used mattress. In the twin room we felt the springs in the mattress most uncomfortable. The side lights in the main bedroom did not work. Both toilet seats were loose, and the shower was difficult to turn on and off. We never found hot water came through to the washbasins. Finally we feel the issue of the road noise could be cured by the fitting of modern double glazing in both bedrooms. We are so sorry to bring up these issues as the cottage is near perfect for most people.

The hosts were very welcoming,helpful and friendly without being intrusive.

The welcome pack provided was extensive and very much appreciated. The cottage was homely, spotlessly clean and very well equipped and we would highly recommend.

We had a very relaxing time at Highbury with our family of four.

It was so well equipped it really was like home from home. Our hosts were very nice and would highly recommend this spacious cottage. It was very clean and well looked after. The location was good as we were able to explore different areas with ease. The bedding and towels were really soft which was just what was needed after a long day. Thank you Gwenda.

A beautiful cottage, perfect for our family of four.

Wonderful hosts. Very clean and spacious with all amenities that we needed. Thank you!

Would definitely recommend this lovely, spacious accommodation.

There was a superb welcome basket and Gwenda came to welcome us and was very friendly and helpful. It is superbly situated for touring Pembrokeshire. We will definitely use again. Tip: do not use Tesco for home food delivery. They change the slot to suit themselves and then tell you a pack of lies with zero customer service. Not for the first time, may have gone to incorrect address, The nearby pub, the Pump on the Green, serves great food, Sunday lunch is super portions and HOT vegetables. As good as it gets for pub food.

A very clean property,well kept.

The owner gave us a very warm welcome and it was no bother to answer any questions we may have. The whole family were very friendly but not intrusive. The signage in the property was very clear as was the folder containing details about all the appliances.

Lovely place to stay,only minor point, to point out wifi was a little slow,needs a mirror above the wash basin in the bathroom,water pump for hot water was slighly noticable,the shower in the ensuite room is not for the larger person.

but all in all nice place, the welcome pack from the owner was a nice touch,very friendly,if you require a nice pub, we recomend the pump on the green, food was awesome.

the property was spacious and clean and had most of the facilities we needed The property only had one shower.

The yard was very busy with cars although we were not unduly disturbed, Sitting in the garden area was especially relaxing. It is in a good location for seeing Pembrokeshire.

The owners of the property were delightful and friendly.

They left the heating on a timer as it was quite chilly and very windy on the day we arrived, which was very thoughtful of them, but the weather improved and we had the heating on in the evenings. The kitchen was extremely well fitted out and included everything we could possibly want. Would love to visit again sometime.

Thank you for a great stay.

This is a perfect location for visiting Pembrokeshire. The cottage is larger than we expected, but cosy & comfortable. The welcome pack was amazing! Gwenda & Rob were incredibly accommodating & helpful. True Welsh hospitality. We highly recommend this cottage. Would love to return some day.

Beautiful accommodation with lovely, friendly hosts.

Highly recommend

Thanks so much for a wonderful stay.

Super accommodation in an ideal location for exploring that part of Pembrokeshire. The owner greeted us on our arrival and the Welsh themed welcome pack was a lovely touch! The property is lovely and warm, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Would highly recommended

Thanks for a fantastic stay.

Highbury really did have everything we needed for our week in Wales. It was also lovely and warm when we got back after days out exploring. Sofas and beds were very comfortable.

It was a very comfortable and spacious cottage and the owner was very friendly leaving a very nice welcome package

Great place well equipped and very spacious

We were very pleased with the cottage.

It was very clean and comfortable. The welcome pack was amazing - thank you. The area was very quiet and peaceful which suited us. There is a lovely patio/garden area to sit in. Plenty of parking too. The owners and family were very welcoming with good suggestions about where to go for days out and where to eat.

Well maintained and comfortable property.

Brilliant welcome pack. Any minor issues sorted immediately.

This is a great little holiday let with absolutely everything you would need.

The host gave us a warm and welcome reception and provided a super welcome pack. Would definitely recommend, it’s central to all the places we wanted to visit and the nearby village pub provided excellent food!

Beautiful cottage to stay in.

Clean, well equipped and spacious. Rayburn in kitchen made it really cosy. Hosts always available and sorted small problems promptly.. Hope to return again soon.

A good clean in the shower would be useful.

"A beautiful cosy cottage, in a quiet and picturesque location.

" It had everything I needed for a comfortable stay and was in a great location for exploring. Very friendly owners and will hopefully be back.

We had a lovely stay at Highbury - cosy, warm and welcoming especially after a day's outing which was windy and wet this week.

Super clean, everything we needed was at the cottage. Hosts were very thoightful and welcoming - a delicious welcome pack to greet us; they'd even bought and set up a fire guard in front of the range in case our grandchildren visited.

Owners were very welcoming.

The property is well equipped and very cozy with the raeburn heating on. En-suite shower is a bit 'snug', but shower itself is great. Traffic from the road didn't bother us but if it was summer with windows open it would have. Perfectly placed for lots of day trips out.

We arrived at the cottage to be welcomed by Gwenda.

the cottage was superb everything we needed was available.the welcome basket was the best we have had in all the cottages we have stayed at.the cottage was warm and cosy with the Rayburn on it warmed the whole of the cottage.the location is handy for getting out and about.a visit to the National Welsh Botanical gardens is well worth going to.we will be coming back in the near future. Gill and Mark.Cheshire

We had a really nice stay at Highbury and Gwenda and Rob were good hosts.

The cottage was comfortable and warm and in a great location for touring Pembrokeshire. Paul and Sue - Devon

The only couple of niggles we had was that the kitchen was cold compared to the rest of the cottage.

.however that doesn’t detract from how well presented and clean it was with everything and more needed for our stay. Also taps ..can’t get a good hold on them and they are a bit wobbly. Like I say only niggles!! Overall we thought it was a great place, perfect location for visiting places most only being half hour away, you’ve made it a proper home from home and we hope to return sometime in the future. Thank you for the fantastic welcome pack btw it was amazing above and beyond what we’ve had elsewhere.

Lovely cottage in the heart of Pembrokeshire with easy access to all other areas.

The property was spacious, clean and we were given a lovely welcome and a very generous welcome pack. Thank you Gwenda

Very damp: large patches of mould on the living room walls, lots of black mould in bathrooms when we arrived, plenty of slugs and beetles in the property.

Practically, this is an issue for laundry: there's no tumble-drier, and clothes took >48hrs to dry on the airer. The only radiator you can position the airer in front of is in the hallway. Damp shoes also take a long time to dry. Bedrooms are 3-4 metres from the road, which is 60mph speed limit. Traffic is intermittent but loud, into the night. You will need to drive everywhere, this is not a property you can walk from. Main bedroom is standard double with one small wardrobe. Clothes dresser for storage is in the hallway. Few plug points in main bedroom - we bought and donated a multiplug extension to the property as otherwise you can't charge phones etc in the bedroom. Kitchen design is poor: the fridge/freezer and hob/oven are in a cramped galley utility. You have to carry ingredients out of the utility to chop and prep, then carry them back into the utility as you're cooking. Kitchen equipment poor - no chopping boards, no baking trays, two small roasting dishes, poor quality implements (flimsy fish slice, no wooden spoons etc). Water pressure erratic for the sinks and bath, although the shower is ok. Filling a glass from the tap or washing up in the kitchen sink are a nuissance due to the surge and fade of the pressure. Cleanliness: lots of cobwebs in the corners when we arrived, so we hoovered on arrival, and had to give the bathrooms a once-over when we arrived as well. For a one-week stay, the laundry/cooking/sleeping issues are probably fine. We stayed a fortnight, glad to leave by the end.

Glenda, the owner helpful and friendly happy to give advice about the area.

The welcome pack is brilliant with good quality goods, an absolute delight to find on arrival . Our second visit and just as good as ever. Highly recommended . Such a lovely area.

Excellent accommodation, very well equipped and maintained.

Hanging baskets and pots were delightful. Gwenda was very friendly and welcoming , lovely welcome pack on arrival which was most appreciated. Good location for exploring Pembrokeshire and would recommend this property.

It was a lovely comfortable cottage, just as described.

We had a warm welcome from Gwenda and a very generous welcome pack. The owners were around if needed, but were not intrusive. A very pleasant week, with wonderful weather.

We had a wonderful stay very well equipped and spotless gwenda was very helpful

A lovely cottage, comfortable and well-equipped.

Friendly owner and great welcome package.

Thank you for a lovely peaceful stay at Highbury a well equipped cottage everything we needed, we enjoyed our week there and even the weather was kind to us, a lovely welcome pack which we enjoyed.

Friendly owners.

Very well equipped cottage. Excellent for heavy sleepers & people who don't need internet. The internet was exceptionally - slow download speed 3-5 Mbps according to Ookla test (at home I get 135 Mbps !!). The statement "some associated road noise outside" is misleading. The numbers of vehicles passing the site is not exceptionally high but many of them are HGV's travelling at speed. Noisy from 0600. Obviously nothing owners go do about this but future visitors should be aware before booking.

Excellent property.

Described full in the advert. Did not disappoint Welcome pack from owner a very pleasant surprise

Superb.

.. very good quality cottage...warm cosy and spotless

This was lovely accommodation, comfortable beds & setees.

Quality bedroom furniture , & dining table & chairs,well equipped kitchen. Organised recycling. Plenty of room & nice patio outside. The owners had made comfort a priority . Thank you. Would highly recommend this property.

delightfully well-equipped and very spacious and clean cottage, good location for exploring the area, the road is close but not a problem, highly recommend.

The welcome pack was a lovely touch.

Amazing place to stay.

Holiday “cottage” was just 10 minutes from Scolton Manor where there’s lots to do. The cottage itself was beautiful inside. Had everything you could think of. Hosts were friendly but not intrusive. And the spot was nice a quiet on an evening.

Great cottage, welcome pack was great, everything I required was available, not a complaint but a comment, would have liked a bath towel or bigger towel info said bring your own beach towel I didn't link the 2 also I was a bit big for the shower.

An excellent comfortable cottage in a convenient location.

At times the weather was less than kind so we were pleased to have such excellent accommodation. The welcome pack was exactly that, welcome. Any future visit to Pembrokeshire this will our first choice. Absolutely no problems to report.

Lovely cottage and lovely owners!

We really enjoyed our stay in Highbury. The cottage is spacious, comfortable and well equipped. The Welsh-themed welcome pack was much appreciated! A pub which serves food is nearby in the next village. Highbury is ideally located for travel to many parts of Pembrokeshire. We will be back!

Great property to stay at as a base to explore the beautiful surrounding area.

Great location - only ~30mins drive to fishguard, st davids, beaches & coastal paths, etc. Hard to fault anything with the property itself - had everything we needed for a comfy stay and was just as described.

This was our first stay at Highbury and we must say it won’t be our last.

Gwenda greeted us so warmly on our arrival. We were shown around the property by Gwenda and told to ask if we required anything at all. We could not fault anything during our stay. The property was beautifully furnished with great attention to detail and with everything you needed to make your stay comfortable, right down to the goodies left for us on the kitchen table - they went down a treat. The property was also ideally situated for exploring both north and south Pembrokeshire and within easy reach of Haverfordwest for any shopping requirements. We will be returning again and will be recommended to others as well. Thank you for a wonderful week in sunny Pembrokeshire.

comfortable well kitted out property.

Raeburn made the place all toasty. Excellent central location, everywhere is no more than 20 miles away.

Beautiful property furnished with everything you will ever need, Gwenda and Rob are great, always available and extremely helpful We had a wonderful stay, the weather could have been better but we really enjoyed our visit to West Wales such a beautiful part of the country We will definately be back to explore the wonderful coast line and many attractions in the area Thank you 5 *

This is a lovely accommodation, easy to find, good access to amenities, supermarkets, Pembroke National Park, etc.

The local pub, Pump on the Green is a really worthwhile visit, wide range of menus and good prices. Our host, Gwenda, made us very welcome with a basket of goodies on arrival. We had a very pleasant and relaxing break at Highbury.

This is an excellent location for visiting local attractions.

The cottage is large and very comfortable and the other very helpful. Will use again if we are in the area.

Lovely place and people had a lovely week thanks :-)

The property was perfect for a family of 4,2 adults and 2 children.

The owners were so friendly,our food delivery from ASDA failed to turn up which was very disappointing but the owners stepped in and supplied us with food for the first night.They even entertained the children by showing them their Chick's.Nothing was too much trouble and would definitely recommend to family and friends.It was like having your own conceige as they recommended places to go each day.

A lovely cottage with great facilities and the owner met us on the day of arrival and explained everything to us also they lived just across the courtyard, so any problems, which there weren’t any, they could sort out.

Wonderful countryside within a car ride of small villages and the larger towns. Enjoyed staying at this cottage and a few goodies to greet us with.

We’ve had a lovely, relaxed week at Highbury.

Welcoming owners who have a great set up for social distancing and keeping everyone safe. The property had everything we needed and more, the photos do not do it justice it was much bigger than I was expecting. The children enjoyed using the fenced off lawn area when the weather permitted and we could sit on the patio and relax. The beds were very comfy and cosy. We would definitely visit again as it’s a great location for exploring Pembrokeshire.

Lovely cottage with very helpful owner.

The whole place was spotless and a very comfortable place to call home for a week. We had a great time and covered a lot of the beautiful Pembrokshire countryside and coast.

Lovely home from home, except tidier than ours!

Well equipped kitchen. Comfortable and well sized lounge to relax in after a coast walk. Would probably suit a young family especially if the weather is poor. Lovely hosts. Be prepared to drive, but centrally placed to reach most of the coasts in c. 30 minutes.

This is a really lovely cottage for a family to stay in.

It’s a little way out in the country, which we like because it’s quiet, and we don’t mind driving a bit to reach things. The cottage is beautiful, like a home from home. The only thing is the cooker is a bit of a pain to cook on and takes a while to cook anything (on the hob) but other than that there is everything you want. The owners left us some goodies for our arrival, which was much appreciated too.

The property was clean and as described.

We have visited it before. The host(s) is/are friendly and helpful without being intrusive. There are nice extra touches such as the supply of tea, coffee, milk, eggs, welsh cakes and Bara Brith as well as the usual condiments. There are games and DVds for wet days-which there were.There is parking immediately adjacent to the house allowing easy transfer of luggage. The central heating controls are accessible to the guests (unlike some places we have been to) allowing warmth when required.The beds are comfortable.

Ideal position for visiting Pembrokeshire

A very comfortable cottage, absolutely as advertised.

Would happily recommend this property and be pleased to come back again at some stage in the future.

The owner made us feel very welcome on arrival.

The cottage is spacious & well equipped. The heating was a bonus as the weather was changeable during our weeks stay. The location was ideally placed for visiting a number of locations - beaches & places of interest. We shall certainly return at some future point.

Great facilities and a very warm welcome.

Home from home!

A really lovely cottage, a 'home from home' with everything needed to make a break away special.

The owner made us feel very welcome and there were very thoughtful extras supplied. The location of the cottage is excellent for visiting all the lovely places in the area. We will certainly return.

Very, very clean,comfortable & warm.

excellent accommodation,very spacious and clean.

Hosts, Gwenda and Rob were very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. Highbury is very well situated to explore this very under rated area of wales.It is very easy to find and we had no problems with access, plenty of parking space and no noise issues. We will be returning to Highbury, as it is probably the best sykes cottage that we have used so far.

Lovely place and lovely owners immediately adjacent and available (not that we needed to).

A bit further from the sea/coastal path than we would have liked and indeed were expecting - maybe that was our lack of research. Would certainly go back, though it's a long way from Sheffield. Can certainly echo Gwenda's recommendation of the local pub (Sun lunch + one evening) and also The Sloop at Porthgain (40 mins away - 2 meals).

Good central location for both north and south coastlines

We enjoyed a lovely sunny week at Highbury, excellent facilities, really spacious accommodation.

Kitchen was fitted out well (although having to traipse back and forth to the utility room to use the cooker and fridge was a little frustrating at times). The owners were friendly and helpful. Our children enjoyed meeting the chickens and 3 cats which were on site. There was a little noise from the B-road next to the property but nothing that really disturbed us. Highbury is really close to Scolton Manor which has a park and café. It is about 25 mins to the nearest beach. We were very happy visiting Pembrokeshire and would recommend this area highly.

A cosy cottage with a warm welcome from very friendly folk.

Ideally situated for touring Pembrokeshire.

Very comfortable and relaxing stay ;high standard of accommodation.

A home from home! Will return.

Well equipped, well located, clean and comfortable - the perfect base to enjoy all the wonderful things Pembrokeshire has to offer.

We are already looking in the diary for a repeat visit next year.

Welcoming host and enjoyed the comforts of home at this lovely cottage.

The accommodation was everything we hoped it to be.

The owners were friendly and helpful - always there should we have needed anything (which we didn't). We found it spotlessly clean and very well equipped. Couldn't recommend it highly enough.

the cottage was wonderful, much more than we expected

When arriving at the cottage we received a very warm welcome and was shown all we needed to know about the spacious cottage.

Apart from the superb cottage it's location was central to all the sites that we wished to visit.

Very comfortable, spacious property.

Owners living close by very helpful.

The cottage is new and very spacious and well appointed.

One of the best we have stayed in.

This was a great property, spacious (with a separate utility room for the fridge/freezer, cooker, an extra sink, dishwasher, washing machine and boiler which left the kitchen nice and clear).

The lounge is also large and there's a wide hallway. Perfect for small children with ride on toys to scuttle about. The outdoor eating area and lawn was great and the cottage was well appointed with everything you could possibly need (including a shed to store bikes if necessary). There's a clothes drying line fixed to the side of the house, perhaps during an autumn or winter visit you might need a fold out drying rack for in the cottage, but we didn't need this during our stay. The host was very friendly and helpful and the family live on site and were happy to interact with our children (2 and 5 years old who are very inquisitive and sociable!). A fantastic place for us as a family, great location, we really do hope to be back!
