Discover Tenby, a picturesque walled harbour town on the Pembrokeshire coast. This seaside gem is renowned for its golden beaches, medieval walls, and colourful Georgian houses that tumble towards the sea. Explore the labyrinthine streets within the town walls, browse independent shops, and sample fresh seafood at the bustling harbour.

Whether you are looking for a weekend break or a longer holiday, Tenby provides a perfect base for exploring the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.

When booking a hotel in Tenby, you will find most accommodation concentrated within the Walled Town Centre, a popular choice for its central location and easy access to the town’s main attractions.

The Walled Town Centre itself is ideal for those who want to be in the heart of the action. This area offers a mix of guesthouses, bed and breakfasts, and holiday apartments, many housed in historic buildings. You can easily walk to the Tenby Museum and Art Gallery and the remains of Tenby Castle with its iconic bandstand. The town’s North and South Beaches are also just a short stroll away from here.

Just outside the ancient walls, areas like The Croft and North Cliff offer a mix of larger hotels and more expansive holiday lets, often with excellent sea views. These areas provide a slightly quieter base while still being very close to the town centre and North Beach. Further along, towards Penally, you will find more self-catering options and some larger holiday parks, appealing to families seeking a bit more space.
