“We had a lovely stay at this well presented, cosy and comfortable cottage situated in the beautifully scenic village of Llangwm.”

We will be back!

We will be back!

“Lovely clean cottage.”

Comfy bed. Parking space right in front of the front door. Thirty minutes away from most beaches. Jolly sailor pub in Burton one and half miles away. Five minute drive to village shop.

- Tony, October 2024
Graham September 2024

“As before, all was as we would hope for.”

I guess it will need a little paint work tidy up for next year, but really, it is a great place to stay.

- Graham, September 2024
Delia August 2024

“A lovely comfortable cottage in a quiet location.”

Lots of kitchen equipment and a pleasant outside area made this cottage stand out. Lots of hot water for baths and parking right outside. We would recommend

“This was our second time staying at Oysterbank and we all enjoyed it.”

It's a lovely, comfortable cottage with everything needed for an enjoyable stay. I slept well here too! We love Pembrokeshire and hope to visit again in the future. Hopefully we'll be able to stay at Oysterbank again then as we felt very at home there.

- Kelly, August 2024
Fiona July 2024

“Oysterbank Cottage was very comfortable and well equipped with everything you needed.”

My only issue was that the description of nearby facilities was misleading as it stated that there was a shop nearby. However this shop was never open and appeared to have been closed for some time.

- Fiona, July 2024
Chris June 2024

“This was our second time at Oysterbank Cottage.”

The location is perfect for visiting lots of wonderful places. we went to Whitesands Bay, Marloes Sands and Freshwater West and East, as well as Tenby and Saundersfoot. Llangwm is a lovely village and the cottage has everything you would need for a perfect stay. We will definitely be back.

- Chris, June 2024
David May 2024

“We thoughly enjoyed our stay in Oysterbank Cottage.”

We loved the spacious layout and the garden. We did leave details of issues to be investigated - the CO detector in the lounge and the front door difficult to lock and the wooden trim was falling out.

- David, May 2024
Carolyn May 2024

“Our 2nd stay in this lovely cottage, highly recommended.”

- Carolyn, May 2024
Graham May 2024

“We could find little to suggest as far as improvements are concerned as the cottage was in excellent condition and extremely well provided for ( perhaps a slip mat in the bath would have been helpful for us.”

) We even had welcoming local residents inviting us to their history society meetings. All in all one of our best holiday breaks.

- Graham, May 2024
Nick May 2024

“We have spent another great week staying in lovely Oysterbank Cottage, thank you.”

- Nick, May 2024
Gareth October 2023

“Oysterbank Cottage is a beautifully presented and maintained property in the lovely village of Llangwm.”

I had the pleasure of meeting the owner's parents during my recent stay (2nd this year) and will return next year. 10/10 from me - thank you!

- Gareth, October 2023
Lucy August 2023

“We had a lovely 2nd visit to Oysterbank Cottage.”

Everything you need and more, it is situated in a central location near everything. The house is lovely and comfortable with everything you need. Lovely garden enclosed for children to play happily. Beds were comfortable and all the linen was clean. Would have like the check in to be little earlier 5pm seemed little late and we were hang around. I did notice a few cob webs and lots of dust behind the beds and sofa. How ever this wont stop us visiting again as we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

- Lucy, August 2023
Kelly August 2023

“Fabulous holiday in a lovely, comfortable cottage.”

We loved our week here and plan to visit again. The cottage was a great base for exploring the many local attractions. We loved the landscape and beaches, just beautiful. Thank you for a lovely stay.

- Kelly, August 2023
Samirah July 2023

“Absolutely gorgeous cottage!”

Home from home, had a very comfortable relaxing stay!

- Samirah, July 2023
Janet June 2023

“An extremely well equipped cottage!”

From a comprehensive instruction and guide book to a very well equipped kitchen, the owners have considered everything you need for a real "home from home" stay. The double bed was a little too firm for me, but otherwise this was one of the best cottages we have stayed in for a very long time - would highly recommend for a couple or family ( only one parking space )

- Janet, June 2023
Alan June 2023

“A good house in a great location.”

The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The owner's mum helped out with a couple of issues we had during our stay. My only query would be the later check in time of 5.00 p.m.

- Alan, June 2023
Miranda May 2023

“We had an absolutely fantastic week at Oysterbank cottage, it was perfect for our needs, so we'll equipped and a perfect base for exploring Pembrokeshire.”

We'd definitely look to stay again! The cottage had everything we needed for a lovely stay, there was everything we needed and it was so clean and homely. Our only feedback would be wishing for a slightly later check out - maybe 10.30 instead of 9.30

- Miranda, May 2023
Terence April 2023

“Can you alter the Sykes description with regard to lack of village shop as this has been closed for at least 4 months.”

The property owner had supplied this information in the cottage information pack, however this would have been useful to know in advance. On Sykes site it states that local amenities include a shop with post office, this was closed at end of last year. Terry

- Terence, April 2023
John April 2023

“Absolutely lovely cottage.”

Well kept and clean with all the amenities needed. It’s worth mentioning that there is a washing machine only (no dryer) but that’s not a criticism. The cottage was surprisingly spacious and the pleasant back garden was a bonus.

- John, April 2023
Christopher March 2023

“Thank you- this is one of the nicest holiday cottages we’ve stayed in.”

It was spotlessly clean on arrival, nicely kitted out, great location and lovely and cost for the four of us. We had a lovely week in Pembrokeshire exploring the historic attractions and coast and the Sunday Roast in the village pub was legendary.

- Christopher, March 2023
Kathryn March 2023

“We had a lovely holiday and the cottage was very comfortable indeed.”

Very nicely furnished, lots of hot water, nice and warm and plenty of kitchen equipment. It's a good base for exploring Pembrokeshire and I would heartily recommend it.

- Kathryn, March 2023
Julie December 2022

“2nd time we have stayed in the cottage for New Year.”

The cottage has everything you could possibly need.

- Julie, December 2022
Gail October 2022

“We had a lovely stay at Oysterbank Cottage.”

So nice to arrive somewhere that is clean and well kept. The cottage is in a good location for visiting surrounding places, is exactly as described and we would have no hesitation in recommending.

- Gail, October 2022
Sally August 2022

“Beautiful cottage which has everything needed for a comfortable stay.”

The village of Llangwm is perfectly situated to explore Pembrokeshire and in itself is a hidden gem. Highly recommend. We could not have enjoyed our stay here more.

- Sally, August 2022
Jennifer April 2022

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Oysterbank Cottage and the surrounding area.”

We would not hestitate to recommend or return ourselves. The reason I havn't given top marks is the lack of information about electrical items. Not having a smart tv ourselves, we struggled initially to find the channels we wanted. The dishwasher wasn't a problem although some guests may appreciate instructions. The cooker was switched off and it took some investigating to find the on switch hidden by bowls in a wall cupboard. The guest book was really useful for information about places to visit as was the information left by the owners.

- Jennifer, April 2022
Shirley March 2022

“Lovely property.”

Great location for exploring Pembrokeshire coast.

- Shirley, March 2022
Julie December 2021

“Gorgeous cottage, in a lovely village!”

Lovely walks from the cottage and central to all the coastal towns! We had the best time! The host Sian was excellent, brilliant communication!

- Julie, December 2021
Nikola October 2021

“This is a fantastic little cottage.”

Exactly as listed, it is cosy and well equipped even for the home chef. It was also incredibly clean which was of great comfort in current times. Oysterbank is well located to access some lovely local walks as well as other sights in Pembrokeshire. The log burner was used lots given the weather. Overall a great week.

- Nikola, October 2021
Julia September 2021

“Good location for access to Pembrokeshire’s wonderful coastline.”

Plenty of opportunity to swim, walk and watch seals at this time of the year.

- Julia, September 2021
Karen September 2021

“Very well equipped and well situated cottage, private garden was very enjoyable to use after a day's outing.”

High levels of cleanliness throughout.

- Karen, September 2021
Mark July 2021

“Llangwm was a really good location to explore Pembrokeshire.”

We were able to visit a different beach everyday. As well as the walks available from the doorstep, it was an all round ideal location.

- Mark, July 2021
Jane June 2021

“Good location for exploring the area and lovely and quiet in the evenings.”

Bigger than expected, very well equipped, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Only problem was trying to catch a tennis match on arrival, the smart TV was way beyond our limited experience with tech but the clever owner was immediately helpful over the phone. We never did quite get the hang of it! Loved the walks from the front door and everyone locally was very friendly

- Jane, June 2021
Sian March 2021

“We were charmed by Oysterbank and by Llangwm.”

What a gorgeous cottage in a lovely place! The cottage is full of character, but at the same time has been beautifully modernised and has all mod cons. In particular we found having the 2nd bathroom upstairs useful and it was nice to have some decent furniture for a change. The owners have thought to provide everything you might need - from children's cups and plates, to decent wifi, to a dishwasher. Llangwm was tranquil (lots of birdsong and little traffic) but very friendly at the same time. Talk about an undiscovered gem of a location. We enjoyed walking along the estuary banks just up the road at Milford woods and our six year old was fascinated by the tide coming in and washing over the stepping stones just around the corner from the cottage. We spent most of our time on the beach (Tenby and Broad Haven are within easy reach) but it was good at the end of the day to come back to Llangwm and get away from the busy tourist spots. As for supplies, we found Tescos at Pembroke Doc really well stocked but I am sure you could find more local produce without too much effort. Unfortunately we visited in Covid times so we can't comment on the local hostelries. Something to look forward to next time :-)
