Super luxurious yet charmingly old-school, this manor sits in the charming town of Penally, near Tenby. So as well as having cosy country pubs and the Pembrokeshire Coast Path on your doorstep, it’s just a six-minute drive into the centre of Tenby to explore the castle and beach. The home itself stands bay-windowed and bold, bright white against the blue sky. Built around 1840, it’s a Grade II listed building with two acres of stepped, walled garden to explore. Terraces with panoramic sea views, a swimming pool with adjoining hot tub, flowerbeds bursting with bloom and secret grottos fill the grounds. When dinner calls, there are plenty of places to dine – the sunny orangery that opens out onto the terrace, the sunny cubby hole in the kitchen or in the long, formal dining room. Chefs of the group can cook in the family kitchen, or leave it to a professional and make use of the catering kitchen in the basement. Down here you’ll also find the private bar and games room, like your own personal pub. Bedrooms come in all shapes and sizes to fit couples and kids, and our favourite has to be the master with its hand-carved... four-poster bed and view of the sea from the bay window.

About Tenby
With its candy-coloured townhouses, bobbing boats and sandy beaches, it’s no wonder Tenby is Wales’ most iconic seaside town. Two grand promenades on either side of the town are testament to the resort’s popularity in Georgian and Victorian times, and the imposing hotels and merchant’s houses, with their splendid views, are preserved in pretty pastels. Inside the old town walls, you’ll find a maze of narrow, cobbled streets and medieval...

Explore Carew Castle & Tidal Mill
Step back in time at this Norman and Tudor fortress with beautiful views, dog-friendly castle, and a lovely circular walk. Don't miss the displays in the rooms and enjoy a nice cafe inside.
Enjoy Fish and Chips at D. Fecci and Sons
D. Fecci and Sons is a warm and friendly restaurant that serves excellent fish and chips. The staff are amazing and funny, and they even gave us free bags of Haribo sweets as we left. It's a great place to grab a meal takeaway.
