Easter Holidays In Tenby

What our customers say about their holidays

  The cabin itself is a lovely holiday home.

  It has lots of mod cons, is clean, spacious and well thought out. Really handy to have the washing machine, air con and of course the hot tub. However, we booked the holiday in the expectation of a peaceful and relaxing stay. When we arrived at the property the first view is that of a building site. On top of that the daily wake ups in the 7s to the noise of workmen, bobcat machines and power tools was very disappointing. We appreciate that work needs to be done but this is misleading as the work is not on a neighbouring property, it is on the same site. Having a hot tub is lovely but in the main we had to use this in the evening when the building work had stopped. Parking is also an issue. There is space for 2 vehicles but this is tight and the access is tricky. On numerous occasions my vehicle hit the underside of the road on exit as there is a dip in the road that cannot be avoided when work vehicles are parked and building materials are also in the way. The access down to the cabin is also steep and so not accessible for all. All I all when completed the site will be lovely and we can see the vision. However we were expecting, and paid for, the finished article which is not what we got and this is disappointing. We booked the holiday over a year ago and whilst there is now a line on Sykes' website to say there is work on 'a neighbouring property', we were not aware of this when the booking was made and would not have booked had we been aware. It is a lot of money to pay to have to then compromise on your holiday experience.

  The house itself was excellent, it was modern, very well kitted out with everything we could possibly need which we really appreciated.

  The staff were friendly & helpful. However it wasn’t very private, blinds on the side windows/screen fencing would’ve prevented the people in the next cabin from watching us in the evenings & when using the bathroom at night. We did not appreciate next doors dog running straight through the patio doors into our kitchen & bedroom & think the gardens should be enclosed for this reason. The uneven steps & steep bank down to the cottage were difficult as I have mobility issues, this should’ve been clearer in the listings. A handrail down the steep hill would help others. The parking was very difficult, the spaces were too small, the turning space & entrance blocked very frequently with cars & lorries. We couldn’t use the outside seating & hot tub as we wanted & had to keep doors closed because of all the building noise & smoke billowing from the building site which was part of the property. We understood this work needed to be done but it was very unfair to expect paying guests to put up with it on their holiday!! I think the listing price should be reduced until the work is completed as unfortunately we did not have the quality of holiday that we paid for. For this reason we will not be back or recommending which is a shame.

  Wide angle net pic pics very deceptive.

  This is a small one bed ground floor flat with another upstairs. There's shared lawn, lovely fruiting crabapple tree, outside tables and chairs , air dryer, 2 parking spaces, all facing other houses on the "village" estate .Also ample "community" grounds nearby and facitlities that we didn't use (wet November). Flat floors are pleasing "wood", leather comfy furniture and wood cupboards etc., folksy rugs, excellent TV, snuggly bed, pretty linen, easy tiny shower with gorgeous tiles. First rate kitchen. Heating bit problematic: All rads locked at 15degrees, but extra coal effect fire in sitting room fairly powerful. Thanks for diffusing sticks throughout - wood sage and sea salt, lovely. St. Frances is a really charming village with 2 good pubs/restaurants,.surrounded by countryside, with superb 13th century church and pretty cottages.Countless glorious beaches all along coast and coastal path nearby. Only negative thing was 14 days rain, so thank goodness for the 1000 piece jigsaw (almost finished) and little library!. .

  Very well equipped ground floor flat (a few steps up from the pavement). The property is just a small and very quiet road across from the beach, with steps down to reach miles of golden sandy beaches. There are three islands directly opposite/near the flat - one is Caldey Island -- you can visit the monastery there and look round the island by boat from Tenby. Stunning views. You can park on The Paragon, which is the quiet road the flat is on. The road is mostly used by people going to the beach. The flat has secondary glazing, so you don't hear much of what's going on outside. Comfortable extra large double bed in a very spacious bedroom. Also a twin room, which has less room, but which was fine. Small balcony outside the twin room. The area is stunning and Tenby is a busy little place, with a good variety of shops (Tesco Extra, Sainsburys, WH Smith, Boots and lots of independent shops). Short walk to the shops - maybe 3 minutes. Recommend this comfortable, spacious flat, which was immaculately clean. Thanks for a great holiday.

  A beautiful, comfortable and clean cabin that has every mod con you could need.

  It has been beautifully furnished and finished. The showers are strong and hot (important after a day on the beach or sightseeing!) and the beds are soft and comfortable. We had mixed weather while staying and the underfloor heating and air con meant we were always comfortable. The hot tub is brilliant and instructions for its use and everything else are provided and easy to follow. Whilst dogs are allowed I wouldn’t call it dog friendly only because the garden is not enclosed. It would make such a difference to have the garden, or even just the deck, enclosed so that on a nice day you can take advantage of the bifold doors and the dogs can just run in and out. Mentioned on other feedback are the steps from the car park, these are very high as are the couple in the cabin but not a problem if fully able and mobile. A great location only 10 mins walk into the centre of Tenby and beaches. We hope to come again.
