Pictures do not do this house justice. Property exceeded all expectations in respect of furnishings, layout etc. Only negative was the mattresses, they were uncomfortable hence why only 4 stars.

Well where do I start !! WE have not stoped talking about this wonderful property since we got back a week ago.The owners have renovated this property to the highest standard but still kept all the original features which was so quirky like (having a shower in the original CELL) !!The huge open plan Kitchen was our favourite space in the house, also the beautiful garden which we sat out with a glass of wine & enjoyed the sunshine most evenings (weather was very kind to us) The owners have thought of everything you need for your stay. In the utility room there was a washing machine & dryer, dog treats, poo bags, towels for muddy paws, bird feed, washing tablets, comfort conditioner. In the kitchen there was 2 dishwasher, 2 fridges, 2 freezers, washing up liquid, dish washer tablets, every utensil you can think of, every herb you would every need.Co Op was very convenient only 50 yards away, lovey pubs only a short walk.There is no parking with proptery but car park very close by at only 7.50 for the whole week.The coastal walks were breathtaking, we saw wild horses at St Davids & views to die for. Aim for White Sands pay 5 to park there is a right hand & a left hand walk both are outstanding !!Also Stumble Head is another beautiful walk there is a lighthouse there & we saw lots of Seals. (walked for 5 hours)Lower Fishgauard is a really nice walk too not far from property.I could go on & on about this wonderful property....We will be definitely recommending this property to our friends & family & will we retuning...Gary & Linda Hughes.

Brilliant, detailed, informative review and the great photos. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts, it is so useful for other guests and people who havent yet made up their mind on where to stay.
If you've ever visited a holiday cottage before, you most likely have seen a guestbook in the property for guests to leave a review for others when they arrive. Each of the following comments was lovingly left by people just like you in the guestbook left at The Old Police House.
What a fabulous week! We loved the house and location is perfect. The weather wasn't good but we dodged the showers and walked Strumble Head and Dinas Head. Wonderful evening at The Royal Oak Folk Night. Thank you.
Such a beautiful house. Extremely well equipped & comfortable & we loved the history of the house too. Lovely garden-although too cold & wet in September to fully appreciate it, and what a fantastic kitchen! Loved the whole house! Excellent Christmas decorations too!
A fantastic house which we look forward to staying in again. Thank you so much for hosting our 80th + 40th birthday party.
Absolutely lovey home which made our visit to Fishguard even more special! Had a great weekend celebrating a birthday, but the highlight was definitely seeing lots of baby seals!
What a lovely spacious house-we were here for coastal walking and the side door straight into the utility room was very useful. We saw lots of seals and their pups on the sections around Strumble Head which delighted us. The fish and chips, from Hooked are very good. We will certainly recommend you to friends and family. Thank you.

Fishguard
- Fishguard is a friendly, pretty little town, and a mecca for music lovers, with a brilliant Folk Music Festival at the end of May, the renowned International Classical Music Festival mid-July, and regular live music events throughout the year in local pubs and the nearby West Wales Art Centre. The Annual New Year celebrations, with live music in the Town Square, draw audiences from far and wide, and there is always something entertaining going on in Theatre Gwaun (five minutes' walk), with regular films, theatre productions and comedy nights.
- Fishguard Farmers Market is held in the Fishguard Town Hall every Saturday and a weekly market every Thursday. There are delicious local produce and crafts on offer and the market is well worth a visit.
- Upstairs in the Town Hall the gallery contains the remarkable Last Invasion Tapestry. Made in 1997 to commemorate the bicentenary of the 1797 invasion by the French - the last time the British mainland was invaded! This amazing piece of work was created by local needleworkers and tells the story in the style of that told by the famous Bayeux Tapestry.

- To make the best of your holiday and the Pembrokeshire coastline take time to enjoy the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path - definitely the jewel of the county, and a paradise for walkers. Just a short way from the cottage join the Coastal Path at Goodwick. Joining the path just two hundred yards from the house, walk South through Goodwick Village and on to a magnificent walk towards Strumble Head, and then further down to Porthgain, Traethllyfyn beach and Abereiddi, Abermawr and Aberbach.
- This stretch of the coastline is some of the most dramatic with sweeping seascapes and cliffs. To the North is Dinas Head, a real lure for nature lovers, beautiful Ceibwr Bay, and many other natural wonders.
Cycling
- There is plenty here too for cyclists, with the National Coast cycle route passing through Fishguard, dozens of scenic circular routes crisscrossing the National Park, and the nearby Preseli Hills a playground for mountain bikers. Secure cycle storage is available in the lockable shed in the garden.
- The dramatic coastal scenery, flower and wildlife are what make Pembrokeshire one of the world's best holiday destinations (National Geographic voted Pembrokeshire the 2nd best coastal destination in the world!). Splendid at all times of year, the explosion of colour with the spring flowers is something to behold!
Porthgain
- Porthgain Village and harbour are a short drive away .Once a prosperous nineteenth-century industrial harbour which exported slate from local quarries at Porthgain and Abereiddi. Now the village is popular for water sport enthusiasts - boaters, rowers, fishermen and canoeists - their activities overlooked by relics of the industrial past.
- Eating out at the popular Sloop Inn and award-winning Shed Fish Restaurant are a must.
- Beaches at Abereiddi, Traethllyfyn, Abermawr & Aberbach are some of the finest in Pembrokeshire and tend to attract much lower visitor numbers being hidden away. To the south of Porthgain on the coast path you will reach the metal steps down onto Traethllyfyn beach - a wide sandy expanse (avoid high tide) great for swimming, walking the dog, picnics and games of frisbee! Newgale, Little Haven, Broadhaven are also within 20 minutes drive.
