Dune Cottage
Saundersfoot, Pembrokeshire · sleeps 6 · 3 bedrooms
Dune Cottage solves the family-holiday equation: a flat, pushchair-easy 200 metres between the front door and Saundersfoot beach, an enclosed rear garden for after-tea play, and two parking spaces so the car stays put all week. The village shops and ice creams are on the way to the sand, which is exactly where they should be.
Inside: a sociable open-plan kitchen-diner, a bunk room children fight to claim, and a utility area built for wetsuits and sandy buckets. The tunnels walk to Coppet Hall and Wiseman's Bridge starts three minutes away.
Why we recommend it
