Lovely Well appointed cottage in great location.. All Covid19 precautions in place but not intrusive. As I am 80 and have a troublesome cough (not covid) we prefer separate bedrooms with en suite, so Foxglove was perfect. Nice sitting / dining room. As there were only two of us we didn't bother with the dishwasher and had enough clothes not to need the Washer dryer. Useful fridge freezer, hob and oven. Excellent Free Wifi and TV. Local mobile phone signals are poor, but skype messenger or whatsapp got round that. An enjoyable 6 Km walk to the Dyffryn Arms for a real Ale. Nearest waterfall 200 metres away. Surrounded by woods, and the Presseli Hills for local walking. 5 or 6 miles by car to shops in Newport. Easy trips to the ancient cathedral city of St Davids and the county town of Cardigan (Ceredigion) with its medieval castle and river Teifi. Newport Beach is about 7 miles and well worth a visit, or lunch at the Golf Club. Owners Carol and Ian Pattison were great hosts. Lived nearby, but not in your face. Always there if you needed them, and good for helpful advice and assistance. We were there late September with a lot of warm sun, front in the morning, great for sitting out the back with a glass of wine in the evening. Due to livestock in the vicinity dogs are not allowed. We are already planning our next visit. The local rivers have run of Sewin (sea trout) in their season and ticket fishing is said to be available. Also Salmon in the Teifi. Great walking country.

Foxgloves was an extremely well presented accommodation and the hosts, Ian and Carol friendly and attentive..

Mr Myles, August 2019

July 2019

Ian & Carol are great hosts, ready at hand to give information and advice but allowed you your own space and privacy.. Great location, you feel you are in the middle of nowhere with peace and quiet yet only four miles from the bustle of the cafe culture in the town. You even have your own Real Ale Brewery on your doorstep. What more could you ask for. We have had a great week and would love to return soon.

Foxglove Cottage is extremely comfortable with high standard quality fittings.. It was spotlessly clean and very peaceful and quiet. Ian and Carol were lovely welcoming hosts, very knowledgeable and helpful about the area and obviously passionate about their business without out being intrusive. We are definitely returning next year.

Mrs Townsend

One of the most comfortable cottages we’ve every stayed in.. Well equipped.

Mrs Townsend, April 2019

A lovely cottage, in a terrific location and with very friendly and helpful owners.. The cottage is well maintained, beautifully clean and well appointed. Our only reservation, and it does sound quite petty, is than in addition to the two bath towels there was only one hand towel between us. We hope to go again at some point and will recommend it to friends.

Mr Ridgway

March 2019

Foxglove Cottage proved to be a great base for exploring this part of Pembrokeshire.. Ian & Carol made us feel especially welcome and provided us with excellent information on local walks and other attractions in the area. The map room and drying facilities on site are an added bonus for keen walkers. We were lucky with fabulous weather for our trip but still feel there is more to explore in the area and will definitely return.

Mrs Holt

We had a fabulous family holiday at Foxglove cottage.. It is a very picturesque location and we felt very welcome by the owners.

Super cottage; spacious, comfortable, conveniently located for hills and beach.. Owners live next door and are very helpful.

Mr Mccormack

The track leading to the cottages is quite rough and bumpy in places.. In wet weather conditions this track could prove difficult for cars, without 4 wheel drive, to navigate.

A beautifully furnished and well looked after property. The owners were on-site to help with any needs from maps to suggestions for walks, visits and restaurants! They were never intrusive, a lovely couple. In a wonderful location up on the hills but near enough to the coast for beaches. We will come again, thank you.

The cottage was situated in the most beautiful part of the country and was well decorated and furnished. The best part of the stay was the way the owners greeted us and were available for the whole stay to give welcome advice on the places to see and directions to get there.
