Woodbine Coastal Cottage

Woodbine Cottage is a characterful four-bedroom holiday home tucked into the very heart of the walled town of Tenby, just a few minutes’ walk from the beach. Sleeping up to eight across four bedrooms, with two bathrooms, a private garden and its own parking space, it is a superb base for a family or a group wanting authentic town-centre charm with the harbour, the shops and the sands all on the doorstep. Dogs are welcome too.

A historic town-centre cottage for families and groups

Set on St Mary’s Street in the middle of old Tenby, Woodbine puts you right where you want to be. The cottage offers around 1,050 square feet of comfortable living space, full of character yet thoroughly equipped for a modern holiday. With an exceptional 9.5 out of 10 guest rating from 45 reviews — and a near-perfect 9.9 for its location — it is a firm favourite with returning visitors who love being able to step straight out into the town.

Bedrooms and bathrooms

Four bedrooms sleep up to eight guests: two rooms with a queen-size double bed and two rooms each with twin beds, making the layout flexible for couples, children or a mix of the two. Two bathrooms mean there is no morning bottleneck, and one comes with a bathtub for a relaxing soak after a long day on the coast path.

Kitchen, garden and comforts

The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to cater for the whole group, and there is a washing machine for longer stays and sandy beach days. Outside, a private garden with outdoor seating gives you a sheltered spot to relax, eat alfresco or let the children play. Free Wi-Fi runs throughout — rated a perfect 10 by guests — and there is free on-site parking for one vehicle, a genuine bonus in a busy, narrow-streeted seaside town where spaces are at a premium.

Tenby and the Pembrokeshire coast

Tenby is one of Wales’s most beautiful seaside towns, a medieval walled gem of pastel-coloured houses gathered around a pretty harbour, with three sandy beaches and views out to the monastic Caldey Island. From the cottage it is around a six-minute walk to North Beach, with Tenby Castle and its headland barely a few hundred metres away. Beyond the town, the Pembrokeshire Coast Path leads to Saundersfoot and the glorious beaches at Barafundle and Manorbier, while family days out at Folly Farm and Carew Castle are a short drive inland. For more places to stay in the town, see our guide to Tenby holiday cottages.

Staying in the centre of Tenby means you can leave the car parked up and enjoy the town entirely on foot. The old streets are largely pedestrianised through the summer, so you can wander out for breakfast, browse the independent shops and galleries, pick up fish and chips by the harbour, and be back at the cottage in minutes. With four bedrooms and a private garden, it also gives a larger group room to regroup and relax between outings — the best of both worlds for a busy family holiday.
