About this property

5 Star luxury, fabulous sea views, close to all shops and restaurants Apt 3


Apartment 3 is another stunning refurbishment following the enormous popularity of Apartment 7, the identical apartment on the floor above (ref 11178878) A 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom partment on the cliffs above the Harbour and North Beach, with spectacular views of both, the property builds on all the good things in number 7 with extra features for the discerning holidaymaker.

[If we're fully booked look at our near identical apartment on the floor above, ref 11178878]

To our first venture's Visit Wales 5 Star features we have added a much larger terrace, "wet" central heating and a more user-friendly ensuite bathroom configuration. And, accessed from street level but with towering height on the seaward side, it really does make the most of what Tenby offers - a charming and well-resourced town and wonderful, often breathtaking views of the coast on the other.

Our first venture featured in WALES ONLINE - 21 One-off Places to Stay in Wales for a Truly Memorable Trip ! (31 August 2016). Apartment 3 ups that level of quality a notch or two, in our view.

Refurbishment finished at 3 Royal Victoria Court in May 2017 and we have had 100% 5 star reviews from all our guests since then. We have again modernised and refitted the apartment to our own standards for our own use, so it has all the conveniences of home, plus the Wow! of high quality fit-out, including two ensuite bathrooms and a superbly fitted and equipped kitchen. The apartment is a one-floor, two-bedroom accommodation in a large Victorian house perched on the harbour cliff in the heart of Tenby’s holiday area. At the top end of Crackwell Street, you’ll be ideally placed for access to the promenade, the pretty, postcard-view Harbour and Tenby’s three beautiful Blue Flag beaches. If you really do like to be beside the seaside, you are going to love staying here!

Sitting smack on the cliffs over Tenby Harbour, with immediate access to this lovely seaside town’s shops, restaurants, pubs and other attractions, the apartment has spectacular views over the Harbour and North Beach, across to Caldey Island and even beyond to the beaches of North Devon. The substantial open plan living/dining room has double doors accessing a modern and spacious terrace where you can sit and relax, soaking up the seaside ambience and the outstanding view, perhaps whilst enjoying a meal. It has an additional large bay window, with seating, filling the apartment with light and letting everyone enjoy that wonderful aspect.

THINGS TO DO

If you’re not down on the huge, soft-sandy beaches, Tenby has many other attractions, including daily (weather permitting) boat trips to the Monastic Caldey Island, or to fish or see other wildlife. Or maybe you fancy the climbing walls at the Overhang, on the slipway to Castle Beach? Tenby is well set within the Pembrokeshire National Park and offers a great base for exploring this beautiful coast and county, with its many leisure pursuits and attractions.
As a family, we often visit the nearby attractions such as Manor House Wildlife Park (meerkats, Sumatran Tigers and all the rest) Folly Farm (Zoo, vintage funfair and loads of other activities), Heatherton (many children’s and adult activities, from excellent crazy golf, through water-zorbing and tree-top experiences, to archery, boating and driving activities for all ages). Or there is the theme park at Oakwood, if you really can’t bear another day just relaxing on the beaches and eating fresh-off-the-boat fish at one of Tenby’s many fine eating places, such as The Mooring or The Blue Ball.
For a more sedate experience, castles at nearby Carew, Pembroke and Laugharne (Dylan Thomas’ home) are always well worth a visit, and offer many events. You must visit St David’s, with it’s historic cathedral. Tenby is on the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path so there’s plenty of wonderful coastal walking to be done.

SOMETHING BIGGER?; We've just refurbished our 12-sleeper clifftop house (Castle Beach) to the same luxury standard. Available to rent from 6 October 2017 - It has a separable Sleeps 2 flat as well!

The perfect spot

We've just spent a week in this lovely, comfortable property, our second visit, and would love to come again. What makes it so special is the amazing views from the main room and balcony and yet it’s on the ground floor, making it very accessible. There were no problems with dropping off luggage outside and the car park is only a few minutes easy walk away. The location is great, just about a minute’s walk from the main square with all the shops and restaurants, but it doesn’t feel too busy because you’re facing out to sea. We loved it!

About the host

Hosted by Jon Harlow

Host profile image
We are a couple of a certain age, with an 8-year-old daughter. We grew up respectively in Manchester and London and are currently living in Bristol. We both have Welsh parents and have long holidayed in Wales. We both have full-time occupations.

Why they chose this property

A trip to Tenby has always been a seaside joy. It's mixture of old-fashioned charm and modern facilities provide both us and our daughter with all that we need for a great holiday break. Royal Victoria Court is classic Tenby - a lovely old building in which we saw potential to develop a beautiful apartment. We did and are letting it (number 7) very successfully. When the opportunity to do it all again came up for the identical flat on the floor below, with a much larger sea-view terrace and ground-floor access, we couldn't resist. The views are fabulous. The picturesque beaches are a delight and you are never more than a few steps away from the bustling restaurants and cafes in the town.

What makes this property unique

The views (the building practically has it's foot in the sea) are absolutely to die for - we are still taking photographs from the terrace every time we visit. The apartment is in the best part of town near the best coffee shop, restaurants and shops, yet is waterfront too.
