*GLAMOUR.com put Celtic Haven's Elemis spa to the test...*The Resort: Celtic Haven is a well-kept secret hidden away on the Pembrokeshire coast, a friendly family resort that provides self-catering cottages a short walk from the beach in the heart of a really beautiful part of Wales, along with access to great spa facilities. The small, comfortable cottages have a farmhouse feel and provide a nice balance between independence and amenites. They feature well-kitted out kitchens that are ideal for a family holiday with young kids, as well as access to shared resources that include a shop, restaurant, bar, swimming pool, treatment rooms and fitness centre are all just a short walk away.
The Treatments: Celtic Haven's Elemis Premier Spa has seven treatment rooms, and a relaxation room with wonderful views over the cliff-tops to Caldey Island and the ocean beyond. Therapies on offer include massage, facials, body wraps, hydrotherapy and the scary sounding Advanced Rituals from Elemis and Thalgo, as well as Jessica brand manicures and pedicures. Beauty treatments on offer include waxing and tinting, Reflexology, and Reiki.
Other things to do: Celtic Haven is just up the road from the pretty little Welsh fishing village of Tenby, which has loads to see and do for a fun day out by the sea with children. Don't miss the tiny little fisherman's chapel on the seafront, a poignant reminder of the trials of the sea-faring life.
The Verdict: Our seven year-old loved the pool, and the kid-friendly restaurant menu was also a hit. The rocky beach down below the resort also provided hours of amusement, but access to spa treatments also provided welcome respite from the rigours of family fun.
The Info: Celtic Haven offers various special offer holiday packages, such as a four-day spa break from £525. For more information visit: www.celtichaven.co.uk
