Location
Neyland is a town in Pembrokeshire lying on the River Cleddau and the upstream end of the Milford Haven estuary. The nearby Cleddau Bridge crosses the river, linking Neyland to Pembroke Dock. Neyland was a small fishing village in the parish of Llanstadwell, but in 1856 it became the site for the western terminus of Isambard Kingdom Brunel's Great Western Railway with a transatlantic terminal for the largest ships of the time. It was selected instead of the other possible location Abermawr. The town then grew rapidly to serve the port. An earlier plan (1846) to build the terminal at Goodwick was revived in 1899, and the more substantial port there was opened in 1906.
Neyland was a busy rail and sea port. But in 1964 the Neyland terminal ceased operation. In the 1980s redevelopment saw the creation of a new marina and rehabilitation of the old railway yard. Some of the original Brunel iron wide gauge railway tracks can be seen today in use as safety barriers around the quay.
In August 2010, an 8ft bronze statue of Brunel was stolen from its site in the town's marina, presumably for its metallurgic value.
Attractions in the town include the neighbouring Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and a marina.

Property Reviews
We have just spent a week at the above property and wish to say thank you and compliment the property.
The position of the house was immense - and a lovely spot!
We greatly appreciated the brilliantly comfy bed, and really comfy sofas, and everything in the kitchen was good quality and very clean. The first 3 are not always a priority for holiday landlords. The bathroom and shower and plentiful hot water, were also first class, and although we only needed heating on two occasions it was very good.
