Haroldston is a traditional Welsh farmhouse, probably built in the 17th century. A Victorian wing was added later. The house makes a very atmospheric and spacious holiday home, offering plenty of 'elbow room' for large parties of 12 people. Haroldston's central location in Pembrokeshire makes it ideal for exploration of this wonderful and diverse county. For example, walking groups have easy access to the whole of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path from this base. Similarly, sightseers can get to St Davids & Fishguard as easily as Tenby and Saundersfoot. Pembrokeshire's numerous attractions and events are also close by (see our new Things To Do guide).

Haroldston, as a holiday home, has the dual advantage of being in a lovely and peaceful rural environment, at the end of a 300 yard private drive, whilst at the same time being close to the many advantages of Pembrokeshire's county town, Haverfordwest. The main shopping area is a one mile walk away, along a country lane, although it is a little further by car thanks to the one-way system. The nearest pub (The Glen) is less than a mile whilst there is a convenience store just 600 yards away. We think that this is important for a self catering holiday - in many cases holidaymakers are faced with a drive of several miles just to get a bottle of milk and a newspaper! Finally, Haverfordwest's super new leisure centre is also a mile away.

Haroldston's popularity has increased over the years thanks to repeat business and recommendations (see our visitors' book). One aspect that has shown recent growth is the long weekend to celebrate a family milestone event, such as a 40th, 50th, 60th, 70th or 80th birthday or an important anniversary. We are enjoying an excellent 2009 season and are booked up to the end of September. Christmas and New Year have also been in much demand over the last few years as families and friends discover the benefits of a seasonal winter holiday together in very atmospheric accommodation. Christmas is booked up for 2009 and 2010 but New Year 2009/10 is still available but probably not for long!

More and more people are discovering the advantages of a self catering cottage holiday with the flexibility of self-determination and the convenience of a 'home-from-home'. Furthermore, those that cannot bear to be parted from their beloved pets can bring them here as well-behaved dogs (with well-behaved owners of course) are most welcome.

Finally, if you want a big place to stay for your large family, self catering, cottage holiday in Pembrokeshire, why not give Haroldston a try?
