The Hive cabin (four person)
Liked: Amazing location so peaceful & beautiful. Lovely views & clear skies at night due to low light pollution. Thoughtful host & good information provided in the welcome book on local restaurants/takeaways. We stayed in The Hive plenty of logs for the lovely fire. Very dog friendly allowed 3 dogs to come along with no extra charge, lots of blankets for them to feel at home. Break was especially needed after having a tough few days prior to this getaway losing our beloved old dog whom we’d planned this laid back trip especially for spending quality time with him & our other 2 dogs.

The Hive cabin (four person)
Liked: The hive is a stunning cabin, I orginally travelled down with two friends and stayed the night and loved the place that much, I travelled back two days later for a solo trip with my dog, it really is an amazing set up they have here. A fenced off garden so that my dog could roam, further fields and forrestry you are free to explore as well. Fresh milk, eggs and logs for the wood burner were left out for us on arrival. I'm already looking to book my return visit here and have passed the details over to friends and family members.

Electric grass tent or campervan pitch
Liked: Lovely and peaceful. Only 2 pitches with a well presented, and clean toilet each. Shower was lovely and hot. Sink area for dish washing. Take a torch as you will need it when it’s dark. Vicky was super lovely and welcoming. Chicken coop near pitch so be mindful if you have a dog and take a tether. Our Cocker Spaniel was very taken with the chickens, spent hours of an evening staring at them in frustration 😂 Enjoyed our stay. The location was great for beaches. Everything just 15-20 mins away in the car.
Disliked: Not to dislike but FYI The approaching lane is very narrow and turning in is quite steep but we managed fine in a camper-van. Not sure how difficult it would be with a large motor home.

Liked: Such an amazing place! Vicki is super friendly and welcoming but respectful of privacy and time too. The site is simply idyllic! I cannot recommend it enough. We had a private toilet for our pitch, facilities were cleaned and checked regularly. The views were wonderful, the homemade chutney was divine and the location was so handy for exploring the area. A little hidden gem - thank you for having us x
Disliked: Nothing at all!

Liked: The owners were very accommodating and friendly. It was remote, peaceful and stunning views. Shower and toilet were nice. You even had a toilet designated to your pitch, something I have never seen before. Children got to help feed the chickens and absolutely made thier day!
Disliked: The lane to the site is rather narrow however I'm driving a large Luton. Smaller campers and cars will be fine.

Electric grass tent or campervan pitch
Liked: Brilliant site for a campervan, the owners are lovely and more than happy to help. the facilities are amazing for a camping trip (especially if in a campervan) with your own toilet, wood available for a fire and a warm shower and wash up area. the setting is beautiful with the local wildlife such as Buzzards and Kites frequently in the air. its a Dark sky area as well so amazing night-time views. With Tenby and Saunderfoot a few miles away and the ability to get to ST Davids, Freshwater West, cardigans bay and Swansea all within 1 hour.
Disliked: Not a dislike but take you own Wi-Fi if camping if you want it. available in the accommodation I believe.
