Lovely clean, comfortable rooms. Received a warm welcome from Marion & Dolly. Marion is a real character that couldn't do enough for you. But she also respected our privacy. In the room we stayed in there was a spa bath with light therapy which was lovely & rejuvenating. The other my daughter's stayed in had a lovely large shower. One of the best dog friendly accommodation we have stayed in & only a short walk into Tenby. Wouldn't hesitate to return !

This was a lovely little place to stay! The room was small but fine for a short break. We had a very warm welcome from the host when we arrived even though we turned up late for check-in. The bathroom was novel with its jacuzzi tub which was great to unwind in after a long day of exploring the Jurassic coast on Pembroke. We would happily stay here again in the future.

Myself and my husband visited this gem during bank holiday. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel so welcome! Our room was perfect and extremely clean. Marilyn and her daughter couldn’t have done anything else to make our stay better. We had the best nights sleep, and woke to birds singing in the garden. This bed and breakfast really felt like home and we can’t recommend it highly enough. There was somewhere safe to park on site. We will definitely be returning next year and honestly feel that we made a friend. Perfect break away

We had a lovely stay at the little red rooster, the room was decorated beautifully, it was spotless and super comfy, we had a great nights sleep! Marion and her daughter were welcoming and helpful with any questions. We took our dog with us and they were more than accommodating for her. The location is within walking distance to tenby and we will definitely stay again when we visit tenby in the future.

Lovely rooms but I feel like more could have been done service wise. The owner didn't come introduce herself to us at all or let us know how anything worked on the property which I found abit strange. On our 3rd day we went to find the owner to ask for more tea, milk and coffee and was told someone will come in each day and make our room look like it did when we arrived. This never happened! We had to go buy our own coffee,tea,milk and toilet paper as non of this was replenished. Towels are small ( not big enough to go around your body nicely ) and needed replacing after 2 or 3 days, but because no one came to our room.... so it wasn't done. Had people with dogs one room down, I love dogs but not being woken up by the darking at 6am. Otherwise lovely place, close to the beach but just enough out of town that we didn't have all the noise around us.

It was a delight meeting Marion and her dogs, and the rooms were very clean and well-maintained. The area around was so serene and quiet, as well, and overall it made for an excellent experience. Hope your back improves soon, Marion, and don’t overdo the physiotherapy exercises again! :)

Quaint and quirky little stay here this last weekend. I was apprehensive about reviews but I found it to be delightful. The room was spotless and staff helpful and polite. Very pretty place, I personally loved the room and the unique little touches. Short walk into tenby town (15 minutes) so close enough to enjoy the hustle and bustle but far enough away to be idyllic and peaceful. They have dogs but honestly didn't hear them and wouldn't have known they were there. I would 100% stay here again and recommend. Thank you

After reading the reviews I was really nervous about our stay, however, I couldn’t have had a more pleasant time. I stayed for one night with my boyfriend and the room was gorgeous and so clean. There was a lovely swan on the bed before my boyfriend moved it! The bed was so comfy, we had a wonderful night’s sleep. It was lavishly decorated and is the nicest hotel room I have stayed in. We were about a 10 min walk from the beach which wasn’t bad at all, I didn’t mind the walk. The only improvements I could think of would be curtains as well as the blinds for extra privacy and to block the light in the mornings. We also only had a bath in the room which was fine for us as we only stayed one night but otherwise you may want to request a room with a shower. Aside from that it was absolutely lovely and I have to say some of the reviews on here go past the point of being critical to being downright cruel. Marion, it was lovely to meet you, I hope your back improves soon x
