The spacious open-plan living room is furnished in a contemporary style and it has a log burner. A large patio door open out onto the terrace, the ancient woodland and the bubbling stream. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped. Downstairs the floors are covered throughout with travertine tiles.

Remote, peaceful location
Very comfortable property in a secluded location which was central to exploring all of the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path which was breathtaking. It was advertised as sleeping 8 but would only be comfortable for 6 max as living space is small. Garden is not child friendly or completely enclosed for dogs although no problem for ours who are well trained. WiFi is non-existent which has its plus sides but no landline in case of emergencies.

Well equipped cottage
Two disappointing points, mobile cover is next to zero but that would be fine if the cottage had a view, there is none at all. Quality of the cottage very good and very close to beaches etc. Also the garden is basically a steep bank with a wall that drops a few feet that could be dangerous to small children (or dogs)

Lovely cottage - but contrary to description there is no internet
This is a really lovely cottage in a beautiful area - but is described as having internet... it does not. Discussing the misrepresentation of that with the owner has been stressful and remains unresolved. Syke Mill is a lovely cottage – clean, stylish, luxurious comfortable beds, excellent bathrooms (but no locks), a well-supplied kitchen that you can properly cook in, and convivial eating areas with views of the garden. Other provisions – games, tables football, washing machine, tumble dryer – make this a comfortable place to spend time.

Riding the waves in Pembrokeshire
Hafida was helpful and accommodating with booking the property. The cottage itself was everything we needed - well equipped and comfortable. There were some great additions such as a nice BBQ and outdoor seating area, and a fabulous table football. It was especially helpful to have washing and drying facilities available as we have young children who get very messy! We had very limited phone signal at the property, but knew this would be the case in advance so this was not an issue for us. We would have no hesitation in returning.

About the host

Syke Mill or Melin (in Welsh) was derelict until 2012. The property comes with just under half of an acre of woodland. The cottage is a stone built with thick walls and many more charm.

I fell in love with Syke Mill the moment I saw it, a "hidden gem" right in the woods with diverse bird species, trees and a woodland stream.

The property interior décor reflects my North African and French Heritage. We have French and English books for kids and adults to enjoy as well as DVD.

Syke Mill allow children to be children, to explore in a safe environment, to learn to keep themselves safe and develop outdoor skills. The cottage's location makes it ideal for exploring Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.

The property is in an ideal spot for Walking, Bird Watching, Surfing, Cycling, Coasteering or simply enjoying a swim. You might prefer to unwind on one of the two decked areas and enjoy the scenery or sit by the fire with a glass of wine. Perfect for family, friends and couples.

One of my favourite time of the year is winter, after a walk in the woodland or on the beach I look forward to a bubble bath in the large bath tub and to relax by the fire with a glass of wine. Christmas is really special at the cottage.

My children loves climbing trees, explore the woods and swing from the rope attached onto a tree. They also like to build dens and trip to Skomer Island to see baby Puffins. Now in their teenage and early adulthood we spend our time Coastering, Seals watching.

We have recently rescued a puppy called Sonnet, she is a beautiful and loves the outdoor space.

Outdoor play keeps the doctor away!

Why they chose this property

Syke Mill is the perfect base for beach, walking holidays, bird watching, Coastering or just to chill out, we are located a short distance from the best beach in the UK 2018...Barafundle as voted by Tripadvisor.
