Why you love Cerbid House
Wonderful cottage - We've had such a good holiday here - excellent holiday - lots of walking, beaches etc.Thank you to QC and Pembrokeshire (as always!)
The Thorpe family & Masie the dog Herefordshire
Thank you for a truly comfortable home for the week. It's been nearly forty years since our last visit. Exploring your coastline has been wonderful, beaches are amazing. Loved Tenby, St Davids, Solva, Whitesands and we went down country lanes not knowing where we would end up but got our reward more than once. All you need is your SAT NAV to get you home. Enjoyed the whole week.

We've had a great week here at Cerbid. Weather been very good so we have managed lots of walking. Cottage is very clean, cosy, warm and well equipped. The organic bathroom products were very much appreciated and a lovely touch. We all slept like logs, beds were soooo comfortable. Lovely. Worth visiting St Davids Cathedral, St Non's Chapel, Whitesands bay, Newgale beach and a boat trip around Ramsey Island. Harbour Inn pub on the Quay at Solva does good pub food at reasonable prices. Very enjoyable week. Thank you
