I had a very relaxing stay at Captains Hideaway. Due to it's location having a bespoke parking space (or 2 if you have smaller vehicles) was ideal. The location enabled me to go out in different directions each of the days that I stayed.The welcome pack (for humans and dogs) and other 'essentials' in the accommodation was put to good use.The only slight niggle was next doors (very) yappy dog.

Property itself excellent. Situated on a housing estate not ideal for holiday home. Small village shop walk away but no newspapers . Definitely need a car to get anywhere or for provisions. Nearest supermarket Tenby 15 mins drive. This is an honest personal review.

We found this place for a last minute break and so glad we did. It was spacious (2 adults, 3 children and the dog), cosy and very well equipped with some thoughtful touches. It's a great location for exploring Tenby and the area. And a real home from home to come back to each day. We will definitely be staying again.
