Jeffrey “Lovely cosy cottage with character all in very good condition with everything provided I could need.”
With a super shower, a nice comfy bed and heating which always kept it nice and warm. Located in a nice quiet village with just a little walk to the coast paths which I enjoyed exploring from the cottage. With so many lovely places and walks just a short drive away all made for a great holiday.

Marilyn “The online information maybe needs updating, as I didn’t need to bring towels, and the cottage is no longer yellow with red windows.”
But these are minor points. The cottage was extremely cosy and comfortable, with every need well catered for. The bed was more comfortable than my one at home! The off road parking area was much appreciated, though due to the heatwave I didn’t use the outdoor seating area. The owner who lives opposite is very friendly and helpful. The cottage’s location is ideal for walking on the coastal path, or visiting the numerous little bays in the area. Everything is within a short drive, including St David’s, and boat trips around Ramsey and Skomer Islands leave St Justinian’s regularly. Trefin is a quiet, charming village with a relaxing, happy vibe, and the Ship Inn provides good ale and meals. I didn’t want to leave!
- Marilyn, July 2022 -
Wendy “A spotlessly clean comfortable cottage in a perfect location.”
Very friendly and helpful owner. Nice outdoor seating area and parking outside. Minutes away from coastal path and walks from the door.
- Wendy, July 2022 -

Michael “One of the best cottages we have stayed in.”
Although it's tiny and only suitable for two people it is well equipped, comfortable, clean and well maintained. The owner lives next door and is very friendly and helpful without encroaching on your privacy. Highly recommend this cottage for seeing the area.

All utensils and crockery intact and in perfect condition. Lovely friendly owners who were on hand and helpful. Not a lot to do in the hamlet but definitely need to praise the high standards maintained.

Mary “What a fantastic little cottage is Ffynnon Tom!”
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The cottage is perfect for couples with everything you need for your holiday. Mr & Mrs Reynolds are the lovely couple who own the cottage and they are just perfect. Such a friendly and helpful couple. We chose to stay in Trefin because of its location to the coastal path, which is within walking distance of an incredible section of the path. The sunsets over the sea, at the end of the village, are spectacular.
- Mary, May 2021 -
Ann “We had a great week staying at Ffynnon Tom.”
The property was exactly as advertised but actually exceeded our expectations. It was comfortable, warm, cosy, and very well equipped. the hosts were great, sorting out a couple of small problems quickly and efficiently. I hasten to add that the problems were our fault! They were always there when needed. The village was interesting. Check out the second hand books in the old telephone box! Lots of lovely walks nearby with fantastic scenery. Trefin is fairly central for visiting a number of interesting villages and only a few miles from St David's which is a must to visit. There is a small Spar and a petrol station a couple of miles back up on the main road. it is well stocked. there is also a Tesco Express in Fishguard. We had a great relaxing week, and hope to return one day Ann and Gwynn Bowyer
- Ann, May 2021 -
Debrah “We had a wonderful holiday at Ffynnon Tom.”
It’s a delightful cosy cottage, just great for my husband and I as it’s so close to the coastal path for coastal path walking which is what we did all week. The cottage was immaculate and the owners has thought of everything that you may require in a holiday cottage. The was free view To and the internet connection was very good. The beds was very comfortable. There was plenty of hot water and plenty of space for clothing and food storage. Beside the parking space there was a small patio area with two chairs and a table (sun umbrella available). What a lovely little sun trap that area is and we had evenings sitting out and chatted to the owners who were very helpful, informative and interested to know how our day went without being intrusive. Trefin is such a peaceful place and Ffynnon Tom was just lovely. Hope to return one day and would definitely recommend this property especially if you intend on getting out and about on the coastal path. Thank you Mr and Mrs Reynolds for making us feel so welcome and sharing your local knowledge with us. The weather was fabulous for our stay. All in all a brilliant holiday.

Chris “This is the perfect cottage for exploring the amazing Welsh coast, as it is a few minutes walk from the coast path and it is the cosiest place to come back to after a day’s walking.”
- Chris, August 2020 -
Joy “We had a wonderful time at Ffynnon Tom.”
Trefin is a village close to our hearts, and this cottage is ideally placed for walks on the coastal path, with the lovely pub and beach only minutes‘ walk away too. Christine and family couldn’t have been more helpful and welcoming without being in any way intrusive, thank you all so much! The cottage was pristine and comfortable, with everything needed even for the extensive cooking my partner goes in for. We felt very safe, and we will certainly come back again when we can next get to Trefin. Thank you!
- Joy, July 2020 -
Maureen “Perfect location for the coastpath and activities we wanted to do.”
Including being on the summer bus route. The cottage is in a secure location, close to the owners home. It was immaculately clean and the kitchen is well equipped. We hope to return next year.
- Maureen, July 2020 -
Norman “A lovely barn conversion, very clean and well equipped, bedding and decor spot on.”
Mr's and Mr Reynolds were friendly, obliging and nice people to talk to. Nothing to do with this great central location for touring and coastal path walks we found Corona Virus regulations meant you either cooked your own evening meal or had a take away, E.G eating out was very limited. for evenings you ideally need a couple of good books.
- Norman, July 2020 -
Wendy “A second visit to this lovely little cottage in Trefin, a great place to access the Pembrokeshire Coast path and all parts of this area from.”
This lovely cosy cottage had everything I needed for a comfortable stay and the owners are very welcoming and helpful.
- Wendy, October 2019 -
Alexander “We greatly enjoyed our week here; we were given a friendly welcome by the owner who helped us in any way necessary.”
The village itself, though not tiny, lacks facilities so ones own transport is all but essential. There are some wonderful walks nearby, some of which can be done from the cottage itself.
- Alexander, August 2019Thank you for your feedback, the village is a local rural village, there is a frequent bus route that runs every hour from the property to the village. we are glad you enjoyed the rest of your stay at the property. Property Owner

Eric “This was a return visit to Ffynnon Tom”
- Eric, June 2019 -
Philip “A well equipped cottage.”
Nice quiet location for a relaxing break. Owners are friendly and take time to have a chat. They give you a lot of information surrounding the area, places to eat and visit. Everything is provided, I would recommend a stay here for both a short or longer stay, a home from home property, spotlessly clean, and a nice welcome from the owners. Would recommend a stay here.
- Philip, June 2019 -
Tara “Fantastic welcome from owners to an amazing, comfy cottage in a wonderful area, perfect for walking and sightseeing.”

- Bernard, May 2019 -
Wendy “This cosy cottage for two is ideally situated in the centre of Trefin perfect for exploring the North Pembrokeshire coast and countryside.”
The bus services call in at Trefin which is great when you want to leave the car behind and facilitates walks along this stunning coast. The cottage is maintained to a high standard by the owners who are friendly and very helpful. It had everything I needed for my holiday which was quiet and peaceful, just what I needed. I wouln't hesitate to return to this property.
- Wendy, May 2019 -
Elizabeth “Very happy with this cottage.”
Have liked all the Sykes cottages we have rented
- Elizabeth, May 2019 -
Christine “The cottages we have booked via Sykes have both been excellent and the letting families have been welcoming and friendly so we have very much enjoyed our stays.”
The only unpleasant aspect to using the Sykes service to book a holiday (or even checking cottage availability) is being absolutely overwhelmed by the resulting number of advertising e-mails nagging us to book another. How many holidays do you think the average working couple can take in a year??? You know that we are aware of your services and, if they were any good, any consumer would automatically return to check out the possibilities for their next holiday with you first if not for fear of the subsequent assault on their inbox. All the people we know who use Sykes complain about this as well. You are alienating people not encouraging them I am cancelling the account and blacklisting you on the anti-spam utility until WE decide we might take another break - then who knows where we will look.
- Christine, April 2019 -
David “Everything was in excellent condition, order and quality, beautifully clean and presented, easy adjacent parking and outside seating.”
The owners next door were kind and friendly and helpful. We thoroughly recommend the cottage for couples as well as for just one alone.
- David, March 2019 -
Andrew “We had a most enjoyable and comfortable stay, the hosts were very welcoming, especially with providing milk and welsh cakes on the first day.”
The fresh flowers was also most welcoming with the added touch. Great hot shower and the laundry facilities were most useful too. The location was ideal for touring North Pembrokeshire with beautiful sandy beaches and picturesque coves to be explored!
- Andrew, August 2018 -

- Carl, August 2018 -
Brian “Our hosts were very lovely and made us feel most welcome.”
Little touches like the Welsh cakes added to the experience. The cottage was situated very well in walking distance from coastal walks and friendly local pub. The facilities were top notch, quiet location, great shower, outside seating area and altogether rustic ambience.
- Brian, July 2018 -
Jonathan “Cosy, warm and comfy with friendly, welcoming and helpful hosts (we use bikes and they kindly offered to take us the 2 miles uphill to the shops when we arrived.”
We were happy to bike it, but very much appreciated the offer). The only things we missed were a bread knife/saw and a potato peeler!

About the location
ST DAVIDS
Fishguard 15.5 miles; Pembroke 28.7 miles.
The city of St Davids is situated on the far south west coast of Wales. Granted city status by Queen Elizabeth II, it is the smallest city in the UK, with its magnificent cathedral dating back to the 12th century and the ruins of the Bishop's Palace, both wonderful buildings to explore. Situated within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, St Davids is a delightful place with an array of unique shops, tea rooms, restaurants and pubs, surrounded by spectacular coastal scenery. Nearby Whitesands Bay is one of the many beautiful beaches in the area, and walkers will delight in the spectacular views from the coastal path which runs around the complete coastline of Pembrokeshire. Local buses will help with your walking plans, so that you can walk several stretches of the path with totally different landscapes and views each day. Dolphin spotting from land or from the many boat trips to local islands are a must, and are also perfect for enjoying the wonderful array of birds in their natural habitat. St Davids is the perfect holiday destination, whether you are looking for a quiet relaxing break, wonderful walking, a round of golf, an exploration of magnificent castles or fun-filled days at Oakwood Theme Park, farm parks and much more.
