“What strikes me is the hotel's prime position overlooking the beach; I imagine waking up to those sea views is quite special, and I hear the bar and restaurant are freshly renovated. While some areas await refurbishment, I'm told the staff are exceptional; attentive service can certainly elevate any stay. It sounds like a promising base for a Tenby visit, especially if you value location and friendly faces.”
