The Old Post Office is a much-loved family home situated at the heart of the charming village of Stackpole (award-winning pub food at the Stackpole Arms), which lies within the National Park and borders the National Trust managed Stackpole Estate. The cottage is comfortably furnished for all ages with the best of the old combined with modern conveniences providing plenty of living space both in and out. Its light and airy interior and outdoor eating areas make it a perfect summer house whilst feather quilts, welsh blankets and a wood-burning stove make it cosy in the winter too. A circular walk from the cottage by way of a permissive path through farm land to the spectacular golden sandy beach of Barafundle can lead you either to Stackpole Quay (NT Tea Room) or across the cliffs on the coastal path to the equally stunning Broad Haven South beach returning through the beautiful eighteenth century Lily Ponds to Stackpole Village or Bosherston.

Guest comments
‘We found this cottage much nicer than many that we have stayed in and think the photos on the website don't do it justice, it was far more warm and welcoming than we were expecting’ - January 2007
‘We would just like to say what a fabulous time we all had in your lovely house over Christmas and new year. The Old Post Office is very homely, cosy, deceptively spacious and tastefully decorated, and had everything that we needed’ - January 2007
'You have the most delightful cottage and we all felt thoroughly at home...We would love to rent the cottage again sometime in the future' October 2006
