Wales — 10 Hotels Reviewed

Best Hotels in
Tenby

Tenby is the jewel of Pembrokeshire's coast — a walled medieval town perched on a headland between four beaches, its harbour a riot of candy-coloured Georgian houses that looks almost too pretty to be real. Within Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, the town sits near some of Wales's finest coastal walking, the Pembrokeshire Coast Path threading past clifftop wildflowers and seal-haunted coves. Hotels here tend toward the intimate and independent: converted Georgian townhouses overlooking North Beach, Victorian guest houses with proper sea views, and a small collection of country-house retreats just inland in the Daugleddau estuary.
