Llareggub meets Saundersfoot

It was so lovely to be back in Pembrokeshire where my husband spent his holidays in his youth. Llareggub in Saundersfoot was the perfect base for walking the beaches of Pembrokeshire. The view of the harbour from the living room was fantastic, watching the boats coming and going. Llareggub is a truly an eclectic mix of styles and materials, something fun around each corner. The bathrooms were amazing!

It was fun meeting you and so glad we lived up to your colourful expectations. We will give the hedge a good haircut before next time. Thanks for being good sports.

Llareggub August 2021.

Llareggub August 2021.
Just back from a wonderful stay at Llareggub in Saundersfoot. This place is amazing.
David & Anjana have created a one off, with the most wonderful views of Saundersfoot, which in itself is a great place to holiday.
This was our second week of our summer holidays, coming from The Lakes, and Llareggub proved the perfect place to relax and enjoy what South Wales has to offer.
Will definitely book again with Chillderness, as we now have an insight into what great places these guys create, and what love and effort they put in!

Dear Tara & Richard,
Thank you so much for the warmly appreciative review of your stay at our Llareggub Beach House in Saundersfoot. It was a pleasure to have you and your family stay, and it is always lovely to hear that our guests have enjoyed the quirky nature of the house as well as the amazing views. Do please consider another of the Chillderness collection of equally unusual properties; we now have a second coastal property (also with spectacular views, but looking back towards Saundersfoot and Tenby) which may tempt you next time!
Kind regards,
David & Anjana

A magical tree tent heaven!

A magical tree tent heaven!
We had originally booked here for my 40th birthday, a very special trip for many reasons, and gutted it had to be cancelled due to the lockdown. So a year later we finally made the trip to the green tree tent and WOW WOW WOW.
Pure heaven. Immersed in nature, no phone signal, nothing but just the sounds of the stream, the wind in the trees and the hundreds of birds, and the sheep too! I could have stayed here for ages.
The outdoors shower is wonderful - so warm, and special! Plus most mornings I showered watching treecreepers hop up the tree above me. Stuff of dreams!
The double bed in the tree tent is quite small, so if you are broad shouldered (like myself and my partner) it can be a bit of a squeeze - so we split the two parts of the mattress and worked out an alternative that suited us well. And we slept soundly each night with the amazing sounds of the stream below us.
Time slowed down. Peace ensued. It was the perfect camping experience.
We also got to meet some of the owners as they worked on the new pig enclosure, and it was fascinating to learn more about their story of the place and the future projects too. Plus the pigs are gorgeous!
We will be back for sure!

What a fabulous place to chill out and have some down time, you can really get away from it all but in comfort and style.
Great to meet Winston and Blossom and the new editions, and enjoyed watching the ponies wander past.
Can't recommend this place highly enough.

Aww thank you Lois for the lovely review - I think you were in Ynys? It's so lovely there down by the stream and I'm so glad you managed to spot the ponies, it's such a treat to see them when they wander wild like that. Also very glad to hear you spotted the piggies and their lovely new piglets.
Do come back and stay again - you can try one of the Conkers next time (or the barn if you feel like something a bit more luxurious!)

The Conker

What can I say apart from incredible , romantic, freedom, all in one place (The Conker) surprised my partner to this amazing place last december 2020 just before we went back into lockdown. To celebrate her 40th she had no idea where I was taking her and all I can say we both will cherish those two amazing nights there and never forget them .

Thanks for the lovely review, Shane! SO glad you enjoyed yourself. You know, we're just finishing off a NEW Conker - the Moon Conker, which is going to be fabulous - better eco-credentials and nestled into a beautiful glade in the woods. You'll have to come back and give it a try!

Beach House Pembrokeshire

We stayed at the Beach House for 4 nights and it was simple incredible.
The beach house offers amazing views on the sea from all the bedrooms and living room.
It was modern and well equipped and we simply loved the decor.
The location was great! A very short walk down to saundersfoot, perfect for a stroll. Also has a Tesco nearby and lots of cafes/restaurants within walking distance.
Also dog friendly and our puppy had the best time having his nose glued to the window and enjoying the views!
Would definitely be going there again!!

Hey Ashna! Thanks for the lovely feedback - we've just finished giving Llareggub a spruce-up and we think she's looking just GORGEOUS! We're so pleased to hear you had a lovely time - as a small, family run business it's just what floats our boat. We hope to welcome you and the pup back again sometime soon!

Three lovely nights in the Red Kite Conker

We spent three lovely nights in the Red Kite Conker in June 2021. It is an amazing structure in a beautiful location, surrounded by fantastic scenery. The Conker is comfortable and cleverly designed, so that it provided everything you need for a relaxing stay.
Our only criticism would be that the USB charging points don't work - they don't seem to be connected.

Ahhh Han, it's lovely to hear that you appreciated the Conker - it really is a stunning location and that view out across Wales is just stunning, isn't it? Were you brave enough to use the outdoor bath or did you stick to the lovely warm shower?
Thanks so much for letting us know about the USB chargers - we'll look into that immediately and solve it as soon as possible.
Come back again and visit soon - you should try the tree tents next time!

Boris didn’t put anything on the green list… so a staycation it was, however, we didn’t feel short changed staying at this beautiful beach house.

Waking up to those views in the morning was simply beautiful, the house was very well equipped and felt very homely.

Some fantastic walks (the beach to the right of the harbour allow dogs - Rocky loved it and enjoyed a swim each morning) and some great spots to eat (I’d recommend booking early… some restaurants were fully booked weeks in advance)

The Old Chemist Inn pub was good for live music in the evenings and Sue’s Pantry great for cakes! We had a great time quad biking at Ritec- Valley in Tenby, the off road trail was good fun.

We enjoyed every minute and will definitely be staying again in the future!

Hey Jessica!

Thanks for the lovely review, and for being thoughtful enough to leave some suggestions for other guests - we love Sue's Pantry too (maybe a little too much 😂). Youre definitely right about booking early - everything is so popular at the minute.
We'll look forward to hopefully welcoming you all again some time soon - perhaps to the Barn next time?

Highly recommended Family fun getaway

Our family of five, plus the dog had the most wonderful stay at the Saundersfoot, Pembrokeshire Beach house. The space is so creative and comfortable and it was an absolute pleasure just to hang out here.. what an incredible view! But.. there is also so much to explore in this stunning part of Wales. There was never a dull day - surfing, kayaking, SUP, walking in this jaw dropping country. We ran out of time to do everything - one week was just not enough..! Our kids (whose age range from 10 to 17) completely loved this holiday too. A large part of us really did not want to leave. We will be back.

What a fantastic review Juliet! We couldn't agree more with your assessment of Llareggub as an ideal family holiday - we've been taking our kids there for years and no matter how old they get, they still love the chance to relax - there's something about sea air, isn't there?
We'll look forward to welcoming you back soon!

All the best,

We stayed at the red kite barn and what a wonderful experience the barn itself is beautiful and very clean and caters for all.
Our teenaged kids loved the pool table cinema and the free stand bubble bath haha
Would recommend for any couple or family looking to have a chill out experience and plenty of family time
Thank you for a wonderful time
We will definitely return
Thank you to Anjana and David

We also hired the hot tub from Stephen and was so worth it, he was very informative and supplied all that you needed. Thank you Stephen

Hooray, so glad to hear you had a good time, and that you made use of Stevie the Hot Tub - you're right, it's such a fun and unusual experience, isn't it? Of course, if the hot tub isn't an option that free standng bath runs a very close second - plus it's not as far to run to the fridge for more wine 😂
SO glad you all had a fabulous time, especially the kids - it's so special to be able to go away somewhere remote as a family and bond over pool, books and baths!

Come back again soon, we'd love to see you again,

Amazing stay at The Conker

Amazing stay at The Conker. So peaceful and beautifully quiet, but really not far from the nearest village if you need supplies. The weather was awesome and the sheep come right to the door of the Conker each morning. It was so great to have the fire-pit each night and the marshmallows and Welsh cakes that were left went down a treat! Thank you so much!

Ahhh thanks for the lovely review Nadyne! Did you use the bath or was that a step too far? 😂🤣
We're so glad you loved the Conker - it's such a special place and, as you say, you get such a sense of remoteness and peace - there really is nothing like it.

Come back soon!

Thanks for taking the time to review us Lauren!

The tree tents really are a unique experience, aren't they? The babbling brook and the sounds of sheep - and occasional wild ponies - it's just idyllic. Did you spot the Conker? You'll have to come back and give it a try - it's a very different experience because it looks quite 'space age' but you still get that lovely feeling of remoteness.

Come back soon!

Red Kite Barn

Recently stayed at Red Kite Barn and we were blown away with its beauty . We wanted a remote retreat and that’s exactly what we had . Stunning views from every window . We loved the outside space , cooking on the fire in the sunshine was amazing . The sun deck was beautiful at evening time . Loved the little touches like milk and bread waiting for us :) We lit the fire on the second night and pulled the big screen down to enjoy , so cosy :) also the pool table was a hit and lots of fun!
Beds were incredible, did not want to leave and already looking to go back .
Spoke with both Anjana and David before my stay to enquire about bed linens etc and they provided me with answers to all my questions before check in. A pleasure from start to finish . Thank you guys !! Xx

Ahhhh Ria what a lovely review - thank you so much for taking the time to write it, we were very glad to welcome you and are so happy to hear that your expectations were met and exceeded - it's what we aim for every time, and what makes our offering extra-special (we think so, anyway).

I'm so glad to hear tyou managed to light the fire - it gives such a lovely atmosphere to the room, don't you think? Come back in the winter - it really comes into it's own then - a glass of mulled wine...something to read...a cosy chair to cuddle into and that fire - you'll never want to leave!

Come again soon, we'd love to see you again!

what an amazing unique space

what an amazing unique space! booked for a belated 60th birthday celebration. we were lucky with beautiful sunny days so could fully enjoy and experience the outside space - woodfired pizza eaten under the stars, drinks around the fire and a dip in the wood fired bath tub! we have a 40 year old VW camper so whilst some may find the Conker small (and that's the beauty of it) to us it was luxurious. the short walk to the swedish toilet and shower with a view was so unusual. loved the engineering involved from the comfortable round bed converting to seating and the minature kitchen and storage units. Lying in bed looking out at the stars above was blissful. overall Conker had everything needed for our stay. we walked to Newbridge on Wye for the first post lockdown drink of 2021 - it was so relaxing after the 16km walk to chill out at Conker. all correspondence with the owners was first class and i dont think we could have found a more relaxing and unusual place to stay. We will be back!

Wheee so glad to hear that your stay was all you wanted and more!

The Conker really is something, isn't it? We're so proud of the engineering and unique thinking that have gone into it - did you spot the new one being built? It's going to be silver and even more clever than the original in terms of eco-credentials. You'll have to come back and see it!

Do come again soon, we'd love to welcome you back to the Chillderness family again!

Amazing!

There is no other word to describe this place... Magical!
We had such an amazing 3 nights here at the tree tent and as cheesy as it sounds it felt like we had been dropped into a fairytale.
There are a few cool hidden quirks in the area around the tent which add to the charm, so keep an eye out for those!
The whole experience from finding it online, having dates rescheduled (covid restrictions) to sadly leaving was flawless. Would highly recommend.

Hey Ben!

Thanks so much for your lovely review, we were so pleased to hear that we met your expectations despite all the troubles that this last 18 months has thrown at everyone!

Well done for spotting all the little surprises we have around the tent - not everyone spots them on their first stay.

You'll have to come back again and try out the Conker - more space age but just as unique an experience - and this time there are Chillderbeasts - we now have 2 pigs and 3 ponies for you to make friends with!

All the best,

Magical.

We had a wonderful stay at your beautiful Red Kite Tent! It was so magical and peaceful.

There was so much thought and imagination behind your treehouse and we hope that you continue to create these magical experiences for more visitors.

Thank you for having us - it was such an ideal spot and a dream to be able to wake up with the river stream in the background noise and the soft hum of local creatures/insects. Everything was well equipped and we stayed super toasty by the fire. It's certainly a top class experience!

The communication with Anjana and the team was excellent and they were more than accommodating to us having to change our dates as a result of COVID regulations.

We hope to come back soon or visit one of your other pods!

We had the most delightful stay at the barn. We talked with 3 different people for booking and during our stay. They were all super helpful and lovely to speak to. When we arrived there was an issue with the upstairs lighting which they helped fix quickly over the phone. The house was very tidy and clean. The upstairs room has a wonderful feel to it, great for both peaceful and social times. We wanted to detox and recharge. The barn and the stunning walks nearby were perfect for that. One of our best holidays in the UK! Thank you team Red Kite Barn!

Dreadful experience.

Justice has been done - Court action against this company successful and they have been ORDERED by the judge to refund ALL monies paid together with costs - In accordance with the Law.

Rest assured WE WILL BE sending in the bailiffs to recover the debt.

Pause and do your homework very, very carefully on this outfit ‘Chillderness’ BEFORE booking ANYTHING with them !!

Check all other review sites and you will find lots of people who have had similar horrendous experiences with this dreadful company who end up having to take them to court to get their money back, and there are an awful lot of people !

Strongly suggest you go elsewhere and do not support this business.

Anyone who has paid a deposit for a holiday with this company are legally entitled to a full refund due to their failure to have any 14 day distance selling clause in the T&C’s therefore you are entitled to a full refund AND financial compensation (Gov.Uk - Distance Selling Act)

We had the best time!

We managed to get the chance to stay here before restrictions were put in place and I'm so happy that we did.

It was a very welcome break surrounded by nature and the place itself is amazing. We felt so excited when we arrived looking around at the gorgeous bedrooms and the upstairs area is so relaxing and open.

There are lots of games stocked up as well as DVDs for the large projector to get that cinema experience. We even had the opportunity to light a fire and roast some marshmallows. It was absolute heaven and I would go back in a second.

The walks around the area are some of the best I have ever seen. The scenery is just beautiful and I loved seeing the birds landing on the patio area eating the bird seed left for them.

Overall it was a fantastic stay and I would definitely recommend to anyone needing a little break from the busy city life.
