This newly renovated building has been tastefully converted into two units. This ground floor unit has one super-king double and one twin bedroom with a sofa bed in the lounge area.

A quiet few days away to relax

We enjoyed our stay at the Lower Farmhouse. There were 3 of us and the size was perfect. It was clean and tidy. We didn’t see the hosts which suited us as we just wanted a quiet get away. The weather was pretty stormy but it didn’t matter - when the sun came out there were rainbows! Our Alpaca-trek was cancelled but Pembroke Castle is gorgeous and Tenby is lovely with a very cool Napoleonic fort on the beach. It’s easy to walk down to Freshwater East beach and we had the beach to ourselves.
The kitchen is well equipped and the oven easy to use. There is a TV with enough channels to find something to watch on a rainy evening and we took games with us. The sofas are lovely and comfortable. We found the mattress on the double bed a little bit soft and collapsed. The bathroom is lovely. There is a washing machine and dryer. There’s a hairdryer provided in a drawer.
You can hear people walking around and scraping chairs in the upstairs apartment but it’s not really bothersome.
There is lots of info in the cottage about where to eat or get takeaways.
We enjoyed our stay. We stayed in the Hen House some years ago now and would definitely come back again!

We had great week with lovely weather most of the time. The cottage had everything we needed and was close to beaches and the coastal path. Only small complaint was the TV which we didn't use. Most of the places we have stayed in recent years have had smart tvs which we've got used to. A week of ipad watching was enough. Lovely farm location



Good location in a lovely part of the country

A comfortable cottage in a lovely location. It was quite noisy from the people upstairs moving around.

We've been to Portclew Cottage a few times now, so we know what to expect.
The cottage is spacious and well equipped - it has everything we need.
It's in a beautiful setting, peaceful and quiet - safe and secure.
The owners are friendly but not intrusive, we know they are there if we need them.
It's a great area for walking - we're already planning our next trip.




Good value for money especially for a big family.

Cosy, safe, spacious, well equipped and quite clean. Great to have both washing machine and tumble dryer! Not far from Tenby. Ideal for a large family.



A good find!

Really good location and easy to access just off the main road. A good base to explore this area of Pembrokeshire.
Scenic and tranquil with lovely grounds and outside seating. Our cottage was nicely set out with two large bedrooms with really comfortable beds and lots of storage and a lovely welcome pack.
The family who run the guest house were friendly and helpful.
We did have alot of old cobwebs in one of the bedrooms which I cleaned up and the place could've done with a vacuum cleaner because of the sand etc.
There was noise from upstairs but it wasn't too bad. I would stay here again.

We felt very safe re COVID precautions. Portclew is set in a rural location - quiet, relaxing and off the beaten track. Excellent base for getting around our favourite bits of West Wales.
We've been back many times - we love walking the cliff tops; it's better than therapy. Thanks to Sarah Jackson and her team (and Frank of course) for making it special.

We really loved the cottage but felt that it could have been cleaned to a higher standard. There were bugs and dust behind the beds and in the kitchen area. As there was a bath, it would have been a nice gesture to provide bubble bath maybe.



Quite nice

There are damp issues that need to be fixed and a few thoughtful touches, such as tea would have been nice
