For those looking to book a getaway that is a little different, there are plenty of places where you can enjoy a peaceful getaway while remaining within easy reach of some of the country’s most popular attractions. One particularly interesting option is Seren Jet in Redberth, near Tenby, where guests can spend their break inside a converted 1970s private jet.
Sleeping up to three guests and accepting one dog, the one-bedroom, one-bathroom property offers a stay unlike most others in Pembrokeshire. The private jet was once owned by an international cartel before being transformed into a stylish retreat on the grounds of a peaceful farm.
Despite its unusual setting, guests are just three miles from the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. Saundersfoot Beach and Coppet Beach are both within five miles and Tenby is also approximately 5.5 miles from the property, giving visitors the chance to spend days exploring the popular Welsh town.

One of the most striking features is the cockpit, which has been converted into a games room while retaining the original pilot and co-pilot seats.
Guests can sit in the authentic seats and enjoy flight-themed games. Beyond the cockpit, the main cabin features six leather seats with dropdown tables, as well as a comfortable leather sofa. There is also a light-up bar surrounded by classic 1970s-style mirrors and padded leather upholstery.

The unusual accommodation does come with some shared facilities. Guests have access to a shared kitchen equipped for preparing light meals and picnics, while a dining area is available in a decorative gravelled outdoor space.
There is also a shared utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer, as well as a shared shower block. Private parking for one car is available.
The property also accepts one dog, making it an option for those who want to bring their four-legged companion along for a Pembrokeshire adventure.
There are currently no reviews on holidaycottages.co.uk for Seren Jet, however, the aircraft setting also means the accommodation is likely to feel more compact than a conventional holiday cottage.
Anyone looking for lots of floor space or who has mobility difficulties may therefore want to consider the layout and facilities carefully before booking. If a converted aircraft sounds a little too unconventional, there are plenty of other unusual and attractive Welsh properties to consider.
Nos Da in Bridgend could suit those looking for a cottage for a small group, with space for four guests across two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Its name translates to “good night” in Welsh, and the beautifully presented property is available through Rural Retreats, with a standard short-break rate of £46 per person.
For those wanting a more luxurious coastal escape, Seaview is another option worth considering. Listed by Luxury Cottages, the property overlooks the Menai Strait and Snowdonia and has been renovated into a stylish seaside retreat. It features two spacious en-suite bedrooms, sleeping four guests in total.
