Pengelli Farm Lodgeis the perfect destination for those who wish to escape the stresses ofeveryday life. Sleeping 5, this charming retreat enjoys stunning views of the Carmarthenshire countryside, and is situated on a 122-acre working stud farm so is not only pet-friendly – you can even bring your horse along too! 
Ending the day with an al fresco meal on the terrace, a soak in the private hot tub whilst gazing across the stunning Cothi Valley and some cosy family time to the crackle of the log-burning stove sounds like ouridea of heaven …

By contrast, if you are looking for fun, vintage fashion and hip places to hang out, then Margate Retreat (above) may well be your destination of choice!
Sleeping 4 in two bedrooms, this cheery ground floor apartment in Margate’s quaint and bustling Old Town is a vintage lover’s delight – think bright orange accents, retro furniture and homewares, and even a vintage record player to spin your vinyl on. 
There are plenty of awesome eateries, independent shops and attractions on your doorstep here, from Dreamland to the Shell Grotto and the TurnerContemporary – plus owner David offers guests some generous discounts in his two vintage shops and related businesses.
