Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A wonderful little cottage in the most amazing location. Whilst we didn’t have time to enjoy all the facilities on site, there was so much on offer and will definitely be back to try them all. The cottage was really clean and had everything we needed. It was nice and cosy on such a cold wet weekend. Booking and check in was faultless and the price was really reasonable

Property's Favourite Review
We rented Headlands cottage at Celtic Haven for a family holiday. It is in a beautiful, peaceful location with a 10 to 15 minute (steepish) walk down to the beach. It was plenty big enough for 6 adults and a toddler, as we managed to get the cot into the bunk bed room. The lounge was large and comfortable with a great view from the patio doors. We particularly liked the enclosed garden area which was great for our granddaughter. This led directly on to the field behind and through to the playground - ideal! We went at a quiet time and had most of the facilities to ourselves including the swimming pool and well-equipped fitness suite. There was something for everyone. The reception staff were really friendly and helpful. The only issue we had was with the fridge-freezer which was rather small for a cottage which sleeps 8 - we struggled to get all our food in. The oven and hob were really slow - but okay if you only plan to do basic cooking. We would thoroughly recommend Celtic Haven for a family holiday.

This was a return visit to "our" cottage in Celtic Haven which we thoroughly enjoyed despite the weather as we always get a lovely warm welcome here. The cottage has had a bit of a make over since we were last here and it was spotless as always with lovely bed linen and fluffy towels and the kitchen is really well-equipped with everything you need. There's a gym and an indoor pool on site (longer opening hours would be great!) and the spa is just fabulous. The only thing that would complete the site would be either a cafe or a small bar - somewhere to go for a drink and a bite to eat on an evening when you don't feel like cooking or going into Tenby - the main site has the Manor House that has a bar with beautiful sea views but it's a bit of a climb home after a glass of wine or two, especially when it's windy and raining - we've never been in high season but I understand that during this time, it can be really hectic so somewhere on site would just complete it! The coastal path is on the doorstep with amazing views and the beach is a short walk away (be aware that it's quite a steep walk though!). There's a decent shop on the main site and the bus into Tenby stops just outside if you don't fancy driving. This is our favourite place for a short break and we're already looking forward to going back next year.

Just had a week at Celtic Haven in oyster catchers. Its a lovely two bed cottage which sleeps 5. Everything was spotless and we had everything we needed. There were even towels to use for the pool. The swimming pool was good and lovely and warm. The beach wasn't too far to walk and there was a good shop on the sister site. We didn't take children with us but it was a good site for children. Each cottage has its own bit of garden and there is a good play area. We parked on the car park as requested. Only thing is that it is quite a steep ramp up to the parking. We were ok as we were in husbands car. My car is very low and I think would have grounded getting in there. There is a lot of lovely beaches along this coast and plenty of places to eat. Overall we had a lovely week and would recommend.

Just returned from a relaxing 5 day break at Celtic Haven. Lovely location near to some beautiful beaches and a short walk from sister site with bar & restaurant and shop. Celtic Haven is a selection of cottages - all fitted out very well so you need not bring anything . Big shout out to the two cleaners who always ensure each cottage is immaculate at changeover.

We had a lovely break at Celtic Haven. The location was ideal for the places we wanted to visit. The grounds are attractive and well maintained. The facilities are good. The staff are helpful and welcoming. We stayed in the Corn Store and some of the door and window handles were a bit worse for wear. The breakfast bowls are tiny (which is good if you want to cut down!). The dishwasher was smelly but we chose not to use it. There were some parts that could have been cleaner e.g. dust and cobwebs. The bed and pillows were excellent - clean and very comfortable. The shower was good, powerful enough and easy to get the right temperature. Keeping the areas around the accommodation car free (except for loading/unloading) is a great idea - safer and quieter for everyone. Thanks, Celtic Haven!

It’s in a picturesque spot with views over a golf course and Lydstep Haven . Accommodation was of an ok standard, tired is how I would describe it. Facilities were ok, also in need of an update. The pool was small but clean, closed on Sunday. ( we were there Sat to Tues), and the Spa was closed Sunday and Monday. The hot tub has been taken away, and the restaurant was closed.
