Great hotel. Clean and tidy with a very warm welcome. Second time we’ve stayed and will definitely stay again. Location is great for Saundersfoot and Tenby, and very reasonably priced.|Large bar which was open until late. We didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment on food. |Will definitely be staying here again.

Brilliant location a short way up a steep hill approx 200 metres outside town. Plenty of parking, staff helpful. Rooms warm and clean, good beds and showers, ample help yourself breakfast plus cooked options. A good choice of accomodation, and quiet with a nice pool area. Didn't try the pool but it wasn't exactly warm on the days we were there. That you can't book however. Give it a whirl !!!

We booked a few nights midweek stay and enjoyed despite lots of cobwebs (spotted laying in bed on our first night) in our room which was otherwise clean. The hotel is dated but comfortable and isn't too far from Saundersfoot.  …
