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 spent a wonderful 4 nights last week at The Captains Hideaway. It was perfect for what we needed and exceeded our expectations. The perfect winter get away. The welcome basket was very well received and our little dog Bella loved the extras for her. The area is perfect for exploring the stunning beaches and the local castle was lovely to walk around. We just wished we had booked for longer. We are already looking to book for next year but will definitely do a 7 night stay as it was so wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing such a lovely property with us.
