Guest interaction We are available during your stay by telephone or email if we are not around. If you are a new visitor to Pembrokeshire, or perhaps looking for suggestions for activities or excursions during your stay, we will be delighted to help you find the right ones for you.
Neighbourhood overview Easy access to many local attractions such as Bluestone, Oakwood, Folly Farm, Heatherton, Pembrokeshire Wake Park, Battlefield Live, the Dinosaur Park or enjoy boat trips to the islands of Caldey or Skomer.
Why try a relaxing stroll around Saundersfoot, Tenby or Narberth with their boutique shops, cafes, restaurants, galleries, and craft shops. Or venture along the coast to the exquisite coves and beaches at Lydstep, Manorbier, Stackpole, Barafundle, Broadhaven, Freshwater West, Angle, or my personal favourite; Swanlake. If you enjoy stretching your legs there are 186 miles of Pembrokeshire’s outstanding coastal path to explore; encompassing Blue Flag beaches, awesome seascapes, and secret coves. The picturesque walled town of Tenby, and the glorious beaches at Amroth and Wisemans Bridge are less than 5 miles away. Venture a little further and find out why Bosherston Lily ponds, and Broadhaven and Barafundle beaches attract international recognition. Charlwood makes a great base for discovering Pembroke, Carew and Manorbier Castles, or the peaceful grounds of Lamphey Palace and St David's Cathedral. Younger guests may find the thrilling attractions of Folly Farm, Bluestone, Anna’s Welsh Zoo, Pembrokeshire Wake Park, Heatherton, Oakwood, and the Dinosaur Park difficult to choose between. Very active? Charlwood also offers a superb base for activity holidays. If you are training for Ironman, or triathlons, enjoy wakeboarding, sailing, coasteering, swimming, running, kitesurfing, climbing, golf, diving, kayaking, quad biking, mountain biking, cycling, canoeing, stand-up-paddle boarding then Pembrokeshire is the place to try them out, or increase your skills. The property has ample parking for 3-4 cars or dinghies/boat trailers/dive boats. There are also boat launch, storage, and recovery options at Saundersfoot Harbour and other nearby facilities.
Getting around Bus stop at the end of the road and a train station within a mile. If you are thinking of arriving by train or coach then we can advise you of local taxi contact details.
Other things to note I live in the adjoining property that has its own garden area, separate entrance drive and parking. I do not use the large front garden or secluded and spacious rear terraced area. These are for sole use of guests. During school holidays changeover days/ times are: check in Friday after 4pm and check out Fridays at 11am. At other times we can be more flexible with both stay duration and times. Let us know what ypu need and we will try and accommodate you.

I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. It was a perfect week for exploring the stunning Pembrokeshire coast, or just chilling with a BBQ in the garden, enjoying the views.
The property is very well equipped with lots of extras and in a good location in Saundersfoot. There is an excellent Chinese restaurant/takeaway just a short walk away. It is in an ideal location for touring Pembrokeshire, St David's and Tenby. Nearby Caldy Island is well worth a visit.
First time we have used HomeAway. Very happy with the facilities and the location was excellent for our needs. This was our Ruby wedding celebration and we were joined by our 2 sons and their partners and 2 grandchildren aged 11 and 2. We stayed for a week and cooked evening meals at the property on 3 nights. Everything we needed for cooking was provided . The bedrooms were very comfortable and lounge had games, and sky and BT sport included in TV. Parking ok for 3 cars and area at front of house where we could play games and at back, patio with gas BBQ which we used.Location superb and during the week we undertook many activities available in the area. Ideal for a family holiday.

Brilliant holiday cottage, fantastic location!
We’ve just enjoyed a short stay in Charlwood and thoroughly enjoyed our time spent at the property. The bungalow was clean, spacious and modern. It served its purpose and more!
The location of the property is perfect, only a few miles from Folly Farm, 10 minutes from Carew Castle, perfect driving distance from Tenby, Saundersfoot and many more attractions.
Wendy has been very helpful, friendly and accommodating, we couldn’t have asked for any more.
There is a convenience Spar shop only a short walk away from the property and a brilliant Chinese restaurant/takeaway in the village that delivers.
We would definitely recommend this property, it really has been a lovely break. Thank you.

Brilliant
The bungalow was amazing. Very spacious and beautifully decorated. Really appreciated the Christmas tree. Wendy welcomed us with welsh cakes. Every kitchen utensil you could think off was provided. Even had washing up liquid. Hand wash and towels in every bathroom/toilet, as well has towels for each person. The dining room table was absolutely amazing.
Games, dvds and books galore, even binoculars to try and glimpse the giraffes in folly farm (which were a few fields away).
Only a few miles from Tenby. Would definitely recommend this accommodation to others.

Fabulously spacious & perfect location.
Accommodation was perfect for our group of 7 taking part in LCW.Great location near to shops and 5mins from beach and town. Outdoor area was lovely for the evenings. The rooms were all very comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. Owner left milk & welsh cakes for our arrival and introduced herself once we were settled in. Lovely lady who was very friendly, we didn't see her again until we left but she said we could contact her if needed. Would definitely recommend this accommodation especially for a group.
