“I had such a lovely time at Y Cartws.”

It was just what I needed, somewhere warm, cozy and peaceful to chill out. Most nights were spent watching TV on the sofa and an almost falling asleep there. The hot tub was lovely and warm. Y Cartws is in the perfect location as well as you are an hour away from Aberystwyth, Tenby or the Blue Lagoon by Porthgain. I definitely would like to stay again. Thank you for such a lovely place to stay.

Matt September 2024

“We had a lovely stay in Y Cartws for 4 nights.”

The setting and location are perfect for a holiday on the North W. Pembrokeshire coast. The cottage is a great place to relax and unwind after a days exploring.

“The cottage was lovely and relaxing, we have never slept so well.”

Thank you for the tasty brownies.

Michael August 2024

“We really enjoyed our stay at Y Cartws which was ideal for exploring North Pembrokeshire and South Ceredigion.”

The cottage surpassed our expectations and the owners made us feel welcome. The hot tub was especially welcome after days spent walking and touring the area. A hot tub will be a 'must have' in future. The information folder provided by the hosts was very useful. We will certainly be staying at Y Cartws when we next visit north Pembrokeshire.

- Michael, August 2024
Carol August 2024

“A totally lovely place, fit our requirements exactly - great little property with everything you need situated in a gorgeous part of Wales.”

Sarah July 2024

“Beautiful cottage well maintained and presented with all the facilities you would need for a comfortable stay.”

The added availability of a hot tub after a day of exploring was a blessing, would highly recommend and would be more than happy to stay here again.

- Sarah, July 2024
Ciara June 2024

“Brilliant place to stay, absolutely wonderful hosts and a beautiful place to be surrounded by.”

The hot tub was clean and relaxing (and sheltered from the rain!). We would love to return some day!

Lovern April 2024

“What more can you add to perfection.”

After my booking was final, all else followed went as planned and very smooth. The cottage was / is as described in the booking details, nothing to complain about, everything in place. Very appealing. No problems with communication or privacy from owner or others. Apart from the tranquil environment, my appeal was the hot tub (omg, bliss) after a long journey. Waking up to bird song outside the door, hundreds of nesting black birds, views of the hills / mountains over yonder, the sound of gentle running water from the nearby river, sound animals calling for breakfast in addition to seeing mama sheep / Ewe with her babies/lamb to petting the luvable goat all in the farm, just at the back of the cottage. What a calming, peaceful, relaxing few days we had. Not to be forgotten, as a welcome gift, gooey brownie.... YUM, YUM, YUM. Thanks

- Lovern, April 2024
Mary January 2024

“Great lovely little cottage perfect for the 2 of us.”

Not 1 bad thing to say about it! Everything was expected and much much more! There was litrally nothing we needed that wasn't ready for us to use. Including tea coffee and sugar, kitchen utensiles, towels etc. Contacted owners for a few little decoration for my wife's birthday arrival and it was done. Thanks again for that. Love the fact it is in the middle of nowhere and enjoyed listening to the wildlife and farm animals next door. Really had the homely feel. Hot tub is in a great location and great with the curtains to pull across to block out the cold weather. Love the quirkiness of the bathroom and bedroom downstairs easy access to shower and change after being in the hot tub. Hot tub was also ready on arrival. Owners also on hand for anything that may be needed but like I say nothing else was needed. Loved the neat information folder too. Honestly 10/10. Would recommend and definatly hoping to visit again soon Thank you so much!

Mark September 2023

“A lovely cottage set in a peaceful area.”

Great use of the building by having day area upstairs to benefit the views. Hot tub nice and private and sheltered so warm even at night. Nice dining pubs around the area, will definitely be booking again if available.

- Mark, September 2023
K September 2023

“A lovely cottage in a lovely area.”

Quite and peaceful next to a farm in the middle of rolling countryside, down a lane next to a vet pretty bridge. The cottage is perfect for a couple. The bedroom and bathroom downstairs and the living room/kitchen upstairs to make best use of the views over the farm

- K, September 2023
Gareth September 2023

“Already looking to come back at a later date.”

Amazingly peaceful cottage with rejuvenating vibes. Loved it. Great place with an agricultural setting close to hikes, villages, setting ideally close to 3 counties with a massive list of things to do. We then loved u winding with the hot tub or by watching butterflies. Would highly l recommend to friends, family and anybody reading this. There are 3 properties on site befitting couples, families and large families.

- Gareth, September 2023
Carol July 2023

“We enjoyed a very relaxing holiday at Y Cartws.”

The accommodation was first class and the hot tub a lovely bonus. Would definitely recommend. Plenty of beautiful beaches ⛱️ in the locality also.

- Carol, July 2023
Justine July 2023

“Fabulous cottage with everything you need for a comfortable stay.”

The owners were helpful and friendly and nothing too much trouble. Hot tub was fabulous after busy days exploring.

- Justine, July 2023
Claire July 2023

“A very comfortable and pretty cottage in a beautiful setting.”

The hot tub was a joy to come back to after busy days out. An excellent base to be able to explore stunning Pembrokeshire. The chocolate brownies were delicious...what a treat!

- Claire, July 2023
Emma June 2023

“We had a lovely stay here at this cosy cottage.”

Cottage and hot tub were both clean on arrival. The homemade brownies were delicious and the pretty wild flowers made us feel nice and welcomes to the cottage. Would recommend visiting Poppit Sands beach which is 15/20 minute drive on a sunny day - beautiful beach. The cottage is in a remote location so needed to drive everywhere, but this was expected and there are some lovely places within reasonable distance if you don’t mind the drive.

- Emma, June 2023
Fiona May 2023

“We had a wonderful 5 days here.”

Obviously helped by the fabulous weather. The cottage was perfect for 2, we loved sitting and looking through the balcony to the hills and fields beyond. Watching the birds flying in and out of their nest above the balcony. The hot tub was big enough for us both to lie out, a lovely end to each day. The cottage was well situated to visit lots of places of interest. We loved watching the sun set over the sea at Newport beach. We would certainly recommend this cottage.

- Fiona, May 2023
Chris April 2023

Naomi March 2023

“Had a wonderful week long Easter stay at Y Cartws.”

Amazing location, perfect for walking and exploring and not too far from some great towns. Soaking in the hot tub was a perfect end to every day. We were celebrating a birthday and the owner kindly put a banner and balloons up

- Naomi, March 2023
Andrew March 2023

“Stayed at this beautiful cottage for a week in March, very well equipped, beautiful surroundings.”

The hot tub and log burner were a big bonus and the chocolate brownies were amazing. Would definitely recommend and we will be staying there again. Good location for touring and owners were there if we needed anything.

“Just arrived home from the most relaxing stay at y cartws.”

The welcome brownies were delicious

- Michelle, January 2023
Megan January 2023

“Was a lush weekend, everything was perfect.”

The hot tub was so nice and the log fire. The space is small which we love cause it’s so cosy. Everything was clean and tidy, the also made us fresh brownies on arrival which were such a nice touch. Also the hot tub not only has a wall in front of it but it also has a long curtain you can pull across which was so good as it gave you privacy. All in all a lovely cabin which we will return to again :)

- Megan, January 2023
Vicky November 2022

“We have just returned from a lovely weekend away at Y Cartws.”

The cottage was fabulous and had everything you need for a lovely holiday. I loved the upside down nature of the cottage - the living room was so cosy and had lovely views while the bedroom downstairs was great for getting changed after being in the hot tub (which was lovely and warm when we arrived). We couldn't have wished for a better weekend away.

- Vicky, November 2022
Keri October 2022

“I had a fab time staying at Y Cartws.”

The cottage was nice and clean when I arrived and the hot tub was clean and already hot (it was great to use to warm up and relax after a day of lots of walking and climbing). I loved that the living room and kitchen are upstairs and bedroom and bathroom downstairs. There are lovely views from the living room. The cottage is close to some great attractions, so there is plenty to do to fill the days. I will definitely be coming back next year.

- Keri, October 2022
Ross September 2022

“Thank you for a lovely stay, the cottage was just lovely The cottage was very clean, well equiped & the hot tub was great.”

The bed was lovely & comfortable & the location was ideal for exploring the whole of the west coast of wales We would love to stay again

- Ross, September 2022
Annie September 2022

“My partner and I stayed in Y Cartws in September 2022 and absolutely loved the accommodation!”

The photos do not do this beautiful home justice, also the grounds are very pretty and picturesque (especially by the river). Y Cartws had everything we needed and more, lots of space compared to many other holiday homes we've rented and the private hot tub a bonus (also a super fun zip wire, pet the horses and fed the goats). My partner is over 6ft 5" and he was really happy the hot tub allowed him to completely stretch out. The views were beautiful out the lounge doors, huge pear tree, hills, horses, sheep and so incredibly green. We slept like logs and the 7 days did us the world of good. The bedroom is large and there is now a side cupboard plus dressing table. We enjoyed meeting Catherine's family and they were so very helpful, welcoming and friendly, making us feel at home. The homemade brownies were very welcome after the drive, thank you. Communication with Catherine 5*. We look very forward to our next stay hopefully soon. Thanks again.

- Annie, September 2022
Jeanette September 2022

“Lovely property, clean, comfy and relaxing.”

Has everything you need to make your stay home from home. Fantastic hot tub under cover and private. Brilliant for relaxing in after a busy day. Nice to leave doors open upstairs and listen to the birds singing. Easy to get to places of interest and coastal walks from here.

- Jeanette, September 2022
Simon August 2022

Hot tub a bonus, very relaxing.

- Andrew, June 2022
Emma May 2022

“Absolutely wonderful stay at Y Cartws .”

The cottage has everything you need and lots of homely touches, very cleverly utilising space with the upstairs as the living area and kitchen. Great to have WIFI and also to be able to use internet tv services like Amazon prime and Netflix when it was raining . The hot tub was fantastic and although there is a privacy curtain available, with the fence up in between the other properties it was not needed. Fantastic hosts! The brownies and flowers were really lovely additions. Thank you!

- Emma, May 2022
Alexander April 2022

“We really enjoyed our stay, Y Cartws was lovely and was in a great location for exploring the area.”

It was very comfortable, well-equipped and clean, and the hot tub was excellent. The welcome package of brownies and welsh cakes was very tasty and much appreciated.

- Alexander, April 2022
John April 2022

“We had a wonderful break at Y Cartws.”

The owner provided friendly and useful information before our arrival. The cottage was very clean and comfortable, with everything we needed during our stay. Having the living area "Upstairs" is a clever idea, it was spacious and light. The cottage is just a short drive to some beautiful beaches and walks. The luxury hot tub was a great way to relax after a day out. We will definitely return for another holiday.

- John, April 2022
Yvonne April 2022

“The cottage was more than we expected, the pictures do not do it justice.”

Not only was it clean but cosy and comfortable! The hosts are so kind and friendly, made us feel at home and after driving 4hrs to Wales, would do it again.

- Yvonne, April 2022
Joanne April 2022

“We had a wonderful break at Y Cartws.”

The owners were easy to contact regarding collection of keys and were very friendly. The cottage is in a beautiful and secluded area on the owner's farm right next to a river - very picturesque. The hot tub was the highlight for us and was ready on arrival. We found a lovely box of Welsh cakes waiting for us which was a lovely touch. Also loved the log fire which came in really handy as we didn't pick the best 2 days weather-wise! It made everything cosy in the evening. This break was exactly what we needed away from the hussle and bustle of a busy lifestyle. We will definitely be back again.

- Joanne, April 2022

- Wendy, December 2021
Peter November 2021

“Comfortable cottage with hot tub in a quiet location.”

Hot tub is screened off from other residents which gives you good privacy. Pretty much everything you need is provided in the cottage for your stay. Good location for exploring the locality. Entertainment is provided by the singing cattle. Very soothing.

- Peter, November 2021
Kirsty November 2021

“Cottage was very clean and comfortable.”

The hot tub was lovely very big. We loved our welcome box containing welsh cakes and brownies, very good communication from the Cottage owners We would definitely recommend staying here and hope to visit again soon.

Samuel November 2021

“My wife and I have returned today following a long weekend stay at 'Y Cartws' for our 10th wedding anniversary.”

It is a wonderful cottage. It was extremely clean, and it had everything we needed. The best part of all was the jacuzzi outside. The property itself was beautiful and in a great area. Although we did not meet the owners they seem really accommodating and helpful! We will definitely be back again can't recommend it enough.

- Samuel, November 2021
William October 2021

- Natalie, August 2021
Simon August 2021

“This was our second visit to a lovely cottage in a lovely area.”

The facilities were great especially the hot tub. Our only slight disappointments were that there were no logs provided for the woodburner and although there was a good quality, new television, there was no DVD player as specified in the description.

- Simon, August 2021
Judith August 2021

“Due to COVID, shared laundry facilities were not available.”

We later found out this could have been arranged but there was no notice of it in the property. A freezer compartment in the fridge would have been useful. Overall a lovely cottage. Very clean and comfortable. Fantastic hot tub with good privacy.

- Judith, August 2021
Jane June 2021

“Perfect break after a horrible 15 months.”

The cottage is beautiful and the added privacy screen for the hot tub is a winner. We had some lovely days out in the surrounding area and definitely recommend a trip to Tenby. One of the best beaches I've seen in the UK. Nothing better than coming back to the hot tub after a day exploring. The owner is super friendly and couldn't do enough. She'll sort out any problems, although we didn't have any! Would definitely recommend. 10 out of 10. Loved it ❤️

- Jane, June 2021
Gemma June 2021

“Absolutely wonderful property, myself and my partner had a lovely time here recently for 5 nights.”

The cottage was well equipped with all the basics and more. I loved the interior wooden beams and the juliet balcony which had scenic views. There were also many nice touches around the cottage, making it feel very homely and cosy. The hot tub is always a welcome addition which had lights for evening dips and was the perfect temperature throughout our stay. The property is situated in an ideal area with plenty of nearby beaches and walks. I would greatly recommend a meal at Trewern Arms in Nevern nearby. Also, how I could not forget the brownies which were delicious! Many thanks, hopefully we can visit again in the near future.

Paul May 2021

“Listing mentioned washing machine in shared utility, this was not available, no entry sign on the door.”

No mention in cottage description of 12 steep steps to access property, I am not as able as most, with arthritis in both my knees and spine, quite a trek with shopping and bags of clothes, I would not have booked if I had known about these steps. No non slip mat in shower cubicle, shower tray was very slippery Web photos not updated to show the new property directly opposite leaving very little privacy when in the hot tub, the newly installed curtains failed to be adequate due to weather conditions (slight breeze and they're gone) old photos are misleading as to the access to the cottage, looks like level ground to the front door

- Paul, May 2021

Many thanks for your feedback. I pride myself on doing everything possible to ensure that my guests have an enjoyable stay. I do leave a Covid file in the property that does explain that due to Covid rules, guests are not allowed to share facilities, therefore if a guest wishes to use the shared laundry facilities, they just need to let me know so that I can 'fog with anti bac' before other guests or staff use the facilities, keeping everyone safe. Nobody has mentioned the 12 steps up to the property before, and I do not market the property as one for guests with mobility issues, and thought the photos were clear, however Sykes have added this to the description now, and we will update photos as soon as it is possible to do so, thank you. I don't provide a non-slip mat for the shower, and it has not been a concern raised by any other guests during the 5 years we have been running, and its unfortunate that you didn't mention this during your stay as I would have happily gone and purchased one for you. Thank you for your comments regarding the privacy curtains at the hot tub area , these are a new addition to the hot tub area, we have run this holiday let without a privacy curtain for 5 years and no one has ever mentioned it as being an issue. I shall look into your concerns and will try and come up with an improved solution. There is a new property opposite the Cartws, there are no updated photos, due to the Covid rules we have not been allowed to organise this as yet, as soon as we can we will organise a fresh photo shoot to ensure that all guests are aware of the layout within the Tyllwyd holiday lets complex. We think that the new property has been an improvement for guests, rather than having to look at an old run down building they now are able to see the finished article following a very tough lockdown period indeed. We live directly next door to our holiday complex and are at hand any time of the day or night to help our guests, the contact details are clearly noted in the file left for all to read in each cottage, guests are encouraged to let us know if they have any concerns or problems regarding their accommodation immediately so that we can resolve any issues ensuring that our guests have the best holiday experience possible.

“The location of this cottage is brilliant, we were able to visit so many places whilst we were here.”

I would recommend this house to anyone, the brownies on arrival were a really nice touch and the house was equipped with everything that we needed. The hot tub was amazing and the curtain was a clever idea, it give us all the privacy that we needed.

- Matthew, May 2021
Natasha May 2021

“The listing does not do this cottage justice!”

The hosts seemed helpful - we didn’t need to call on them but they were fast replying and on stand by for if we had needed anything. The location was great. The cottage was clean and everything we needed and more was there. The hot tub was prepped and warm and waiting for us. The only tiny niggle I have is that the directions aren’t the best - an exact point of reference for the sat nav would have been helpful (if at all possible?) Also, the privacy curtains for the hot tub lost the battle against the wind - so worth noting that the hot tub area may be within view of the cottage opposite if the wind is strong. We returned yesterday and are already planning our next visit. I highly recommend this cottage.

- Natasha, May 2021
Simon March 2021

“We loved everything about Y Cartws.”

“Always a lovely little cottage for a break away from it all.”

All you need for a mini break and the cleanliness of the cottage and the hot tub a reassuring factor. We will certainly be back for yet another visit soon.

“Our 6 night stay at Y Cartws was just brilliant from start to finish .”

.the private hot tub was amazing..the facilities were more than enough for the 2 of us ..plenty of crockery and cooking utensils ..fresh flowers and homemade Welsh cakes on arrival made it more personal ..lots of reading material on the surrounding walks and coastal villages to visit . Cant wait to revisit in the near future ..

Paige October 2019

“Perfect romantic getaway As me and my partner both have crazy work schedules we decided a week away was just what we needed having had help via Sykes cottages to find the perfect place.”

Very peaceful set in the countryside had everything we needed we loved the upside down living and having had the log burner in the lounge perfect for cooler nights just far away enough from town to be peaceful but close enough to be about to have a drive down to get out. The hot tub was perfect covered so even if it’s raining it doesn’t make it a problem we had a lovely time came home very relaxed. The owners are lovely and it’s nice to know if we needed anything they are only next door very friendly we will definitely be back.

- Paige, October 2019

Eleanor August 2019

“Overall the cottage was lovely and in a beautiful location.”

We were welcomed to the cottage by the friendly owners and we had homemade brownies waiting for us on arrival. The hot tub was a brilliant addition and the bench outside made for a lovely sunny lunch spot! We had a great time and would recommend the cottage to anyone looking for a romantic cozy holiday with beautiful scenery all around. The only negatives were there wasn’t a selection of DVDs and the WiFi was very weak at the best of times. Other than that it is an amazing little cottage, in a fantastic location!

- Eleanor, August 2019
Kelli July 2019

“We had a wonderful stay at Y Cartws.”

We were welcomed with beautiful fresh flowers and delicious chocolate brownies which were to die for! It's a lovely cottage and very well thought out with its upside down layout and was also very cool in the very hot weather we have recently had. The cottage is very peaceful and comfortable and in a great location to explore the area. We enjoyed long coastal walks and relaxing in the hot tub at the end of the day. We will definitely return!

- Kelli, July 2019
Alan June 2019

“Beautiful little cottage.”

Cakes were waiting for us on arrival as was a steaming hot tub, just what the Doctor ordered after a 5 hour drive. Everything had been thought of, a book with places to go things to do as well as how to speak a little Welsh; fabulous shower and really spacious bedroom and the place was spotless. Looking forward to going again next year.

- Alan, June 2019
Edward May 2019

It is a super cottage in a super area of Wales. What more can I say? We had a terrific break, without any rain! Who says it always rains in Wales?

- Edward, May 2019
Juliet May 2019

“Lovely cottage in a rural setting.”

The flowers and chocolate brownies to welcome us were a lovely touch. The hot tub was excellent and a lovely way of watching the Swifts and Jackdaws flying around. The bed was comfortable and lots of information given about walks in the area. A most pleasurable stay for one week.

- Juliet, May 2019
Carl March 2019

“We had a fantastic four days.”

The cottage had everything we needed and more. Cosy and romantic. The private hot tub was bliss after a day exploring this gorgeous part of the country. Nice cakes on arrival and nothing was too much trouble for the owners. Would highly recommend this cosy hideaway for a break away from all the stresses if life . We will hopefully be back again soon.

- Carl, March 2019
Alan March 2019

“A stunning cottage that felt like home the moment we walked in.”

Very well laid out, very well thought out. Owners left Welsh Cakes and brownies on arrival which was very thoughtful. The information pack was excellent. Suggestions on places to visit for sunny days, rainy days and with children. Telephone numbers for local services, chemist, doctors etc. Local eateries and pubs. Huge range of very helpful information. We will definitely Re-visit.

- Alan, March 2019

“The warm welcome from the cottage owner was lovely .”

Even flowers and cakes were there ready for us. We had a really relaxing holiday, and are hoping to return in spring next year. The weather wasn't too good, but when you have such a comfortable cottage to return to it didn't matter. Local pubs were excellent for food and the garage shop was well stocked. P

“Perfect relaxing and peaceful break.”

Cottage was spotless inside and out. Very cosy with the log burner. Hot tub was a hit for our break. Didn't get to meet owner in person but seemed really nice and friendly over the phone. Homemade cakes as a welcome were lovely. Definetely going to book again. Will recommend to all friends and family.

“This was a last minute booking and we were absolutely delighted.”

We stayed in Y Cartws,which is the smaller cottage and perfect for a couples retreat. We were given a warm welcome by Catherine, and cakes on arrival! The cottage is set in a beautiful part of Pembrokeshire and the information on local walks and places of interest was really comprehensive, additional information on local towns, places to eat/drink was really helpful too. We were totally relaxed and it was ‘just what the doctor ordered’ and the private hot tub was amazing. We cannot wait to return - highly recommended.

“Everything was fantastic, the cottage was so warming to stay in and it was a lovely touch for the owners to provide baked cakes and a bottle of wine, I really liked that.”

The cottage is situated in a great area for taking walks around the coastal areas. There was information provided in the cottage which was very handy and we planned our weekend around that, so thank you. I must say a big thank you to Cathryn, as my girlfriend left some clothes at the cottage and with no hassle, Cathryn said she would post them back to our address. Such a lovely woman, so thank you for everything. We will be returning to west wales again : )

About the location

NEVERN

Cardigan 8 miles; Fishguard 9 miles.

Nevern is a pretty little fishing village near to the town of Newport in the north east of Pembrokeshire. The excellent church in the village was on the pilgrim's route to St Davids and draws visitors from around the globe to wander through the peaceful avenue of 700 year old yew trees, one of which is the famous bleeding yew tree for which various legends exist. There is an ancient castle ruin on the edge of the village, wonderful river walks and a pub/restaurant serving fine food all year round. The beautiful Pembrokeshire coast is nearby with its stunning sandy beaches, the famous coastal path, bird and dolphin watching and boat trips. An informative and fun day can be had by all at the local Iron Age hill fort and the Shire Horse farm. A perfect location for all ages to escape for a peaceful, yet fun packed holiday at any time of year.
