Perfect holi at Lower Folly
A wonderful house with everything we could possibly need - apart from a fabulous view of the sea, there is so much comfortable space in the house for the enlarged family group. Kitchen is well-equipped, bathrooms with lovely hot water - could have had more than one large towel. Very comfortable beds. Plenty of mirrors with sockets for hairdryer nearby! It did take a while to find some essentials, notably baby chair, as well as sweeping brush. Will definitely recommend.

Our Folly experience
We loved Lower Folly, very good location to explore the St Brides bay area and Pembrokeshire. The only problem was the flies where Lower Folly is, we had to keep all the doors and windows shut to keep them out, as they are everywhere outside!

Wonderful break
The house was perfectly clean on arrival and just as presented in the photos, if not even better. With a 1 year old, we’d been slightly concerned about whether it’d be suitable - but our daughter loved the open plan living space and we found it easy to supervise her. The sea views from almost every room are wonderful and are even better enjoyed from the spacious garden. We hope to be able to return!

Lovely week in a beautiful area
A nice spacious house for our family holiday. Plenty of lovely comfy seating, good beds and ensuite bathrooms. The views are wonderful especially for stargazing at night! The garden was safe and secure for our toddlers. Parking was a bit tight as is shared with cottage next door and we had 3 cars between us, but we managed. A few more pans would be perfect for the kitchen as we mainly cooked for ourselves in the evenings. I would have really liked a proper BBQ, but we adapted the (very old) fire pit....! Great dishwasher and always plenty of hot water for showers and baby bathing. Our first time to this area of Wales, it certainly wont be our last - we loved the coast line and we were blessed with very good weather for 5 out of our 7 days! Loved watching the sheep and cows in the fields, and generally chilling.....

Wonderful post-lockdown stay
Great house. Plenty of space inside and outside and safe for our 3yr old grandson to explore the garden. Very clean and all the amenities you could need. Communication with Kay was easy, accurate and frequent. Very helpful. Surrounded by fields with cows, horses and sheep, so peaceful. Views out to sea are amazing, especially sat with a drink on the patio in the evening. Nolton beach is ten minutes walk straight down the hill from the house. We used Newgale more as it was better for the little one, that was about a five minute drive along the picturesque coast road. We all had a great time and would definitely return.

Brilliant and comfortable house perfect for exploring the stunning area
Were there during storm Dennis with 3 young children. The house was incredibly warm and comfortable (and robust). We enjoyed relaxing in the house playing games and watching Netflix, and went on many amazing walks along the coast. Really lovely house, setting and area. Nice and remote spot but close enough to amenities. Brilliant winter holiday. Highly recommended.

Amazing house, amazing location!
We stayed here with our daughter, husband and three children when they visited from California, as they were desperate to see puffins. The house exceeded all our expectations and three nights was not enough. The views are stunning and the house is beautifully renovated and appointed. I fear it is going to booked up way ahead in years to come and home I don’t regret a good review! It is conveniently situated for seeing the area and we had a wonderful day on Skomer on a warm, sunny day. Best meal out was at St Brides Inn in Little Haven, where my husband and I had eaten before.

Ferienhaus mit gigantischer Aussicht
Cottage ist sehr modern eingerichtet und hat unserer Gruppe aus 6 Leuten mehr als genug Platz geboten. U. a. Gobt es einen geräumigen Wintergarten mit Essecke. Es hat wirklich nichts gefehlt. Fragen wurden schnell beantwortet. Highlight aber ist die gigantische Aussich von der Terrasse im großen Garten. Der Blick reicht überWiesen mit Schafen und Rindern bis in eine Bucht in ca.5 km Entfernung. Toll!

Perfect Cottage
This was such a good find! Sleeps 8 very comfortably with spacious, well lit living areas. The kitchen is very well equipped, plenty of seating in living room, lots of games provided, lovely comfy beds, good showers and wifi (needed as mobile coverage not great). The amazing views can be enjoyed from all over the house and garden. Its perfectly located for walks, beaches and local villages/ towns with good restaurants, pubs and shops. We used the cottage as a base for our trip to Skomer, approx. 35mins away and exploring the area. Would have loved to have stayed longer and would definitely recommend.
