A riverside retreat with pool, sauna and hot tub near Pembroke

The architecture is the star: a semi-circular design with a sweeping staircase and floor-to-ceiling glass that frames the estuary. Each of the four bedrooms has its own bathroom — two super-kings (one with a balcony, one with a Juliet balcony) and two kings — plus a ground-floor cloakroom. The kitchen is fully fitted with a double oven, induction hob, American-style fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine, and there is a wood-burning stove for cooler evenings and Starlink WiFi throughout. Outside, the solar-heated pool, sauna and hot tub make the most of the waterside setting, with a travel cot and highchair available for younger guests. Off-road parking takes three cars, and one well-behaved dog is welcome (not in bedrooms or on the furniture).

Boat trips, the Pembrokeshire Coast Path and the waterways of the Daugleddau estuary are all on the doorstep.
