beautiful place, near to the beach unfortunately hardly get an internet connection. just in case you need to look for a place to visit better to have a list of places, its post code. im a bit lucky as the owner has already a list of places and contacts to look at that really help.

This is a nice comfortable chalet equipped with everything you'd need. quiet surroundings with a quiet beach a short walk away.The onsite restaurant was shut during my stay but the freshwater inn, which provides a nice lunch and a lovely sea view is just a short hike through the dunes.

Our short weekend stay at Beach Side Chalets was fantastic! The chalet itself suited us perfectly, with everything that we needed and more available. The layout and facilities of the chalet were great, with more than enough space for just my girlfriend and I, and certainly enough for a family of four.
They certainly don't like when they say there's no signal or WiFi available, which was actually a bonus for us as we were looking for a weekend to disconnect from the outside world - this made absolutely sure of it! :) Having said that, it's nice to know that there are other chalets nearby should you need any assistance, but otherwise it is the most peaceful and quiet place to stay.
The location was superb, with a few minutes walk to the gorgeous sandy beach, and a 15-minute drive to Stackpole Quay which provided a great starting point for a 20km round-trip walk along a section of the Wales Coast Path, followed by a 20 minute drive in the opposite direction to the beautiful seaside town of Tenby. There's so much to explore in Pembrokeshire, with this chalet location proving to be a great starting point. We're already looking forward to a return visit!

The chalet is light and airy which makes it feel very spacious. It is well appointed and every conceivable item that you might need is provided with clear instructions for everything included in a manual which had been carefully thought out and presented. It was well maintained nicely decorated and furnished with everything in excellent order and very clean. There was excellent communication from the owners who dealt with the booking speedily and efficiently and provided clear and precise instructions. The park is ideally situated for walking the coastal path and touring but a car is essential as there are no shops within a reasonable walking distance. I would have no hesitation in recommending this chalet as it represents excellent value for money in a most beautiful part of the country.

We found the chalet to be very clean and well appointed
Needed nothing except for having to go in search for bread and milk off site, as the only restaurant and shop on site was close during our stay
A very quiet site but very close to the basic beach of Freshwater East
The position of the site is central to south west Pembrokeshire allowing easy access to visit many places of interest in a short stay

If you're looking for a good base in the Pembrokeshire area then you can do no wrong here. Chalet was extremely clean, with ample furnishings and space for our family of three, and even if we had an additional one or two with us!
The park was very empty in the period we were there, but I expect that if every chalet had people in them, for example over the school holidays, I imagine it could potentially become noisy and overrun with cars, with the car parking outside the front doors and many chalets within the same area. This was not a problem for us though as no neighbours were around whilst we were there so it was lovely and quiet with hardly any cars around.
Location is about 5 minutes walk to the local beach which is a nice place for a walk or a swim, join the coastal path or just do some moon-watching. We never visited the on-site bar but this looked closed/totally dead whilst we were there, with a sign on the door saying they couldn't serve food, but this didn't affect us anyway.
Another 'slight' gripe is that having no phone signal is fine (we were warned of this) but no access to any wi-fi instead was a wee bit of a pain, as when we're away somewhere new we do like to explore online what is in the area whilst we're actually there. So if there was any way to add this it would be very useful and gratefully utilised I'm sure!
We were there with our 18 month old who is literally in to everything, and although there were great touches like a baby travel cot (just took our own mattress but this saved us taking his cot), a travel baby gate and a booster seat, we found that the stairs open to the living room made our life quite difficult, with us constantly stopping him climbing the stairs with the gate only fitting the top (and the bottom too wide to affix the gate). So perhaps if we had any suggestions it would be to have a couple of baby gates available, or just people to take another themselves. Another impracticality (only in terms of having young children around, otherwise it wouldn't be a problem at all!) is that in the colder months when the fire needs to be put on (or perhaps even the storage heaters) a guard would be required. We 'made-shift' guarding by moving furniture around to stop him getting to various bits - like I say, only a consideration if you have young kids/toddlers with you.
In the area, Tenby is worth a visit, also Barafundle has some lovely long or short walks, and Pembroke castle was a nice attraction when the weather wasn't good, but I wouldn't expect too much by Pembroke town itself (we were disappointed). Carew karting was good fun too if you fancy a quick outdoor spin in a new kart!
I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this chalet for anyone looking to book accommodation in the area, with the owners being both polite and helpful during any correspondence required beforehand. In the summer holidays, with its vicinity of the beach this would be a great place to stay with the kids too!
Highly Recommended!
