Soak up the very best of Tenby with a stay in this delightful, and deceptively large, town centre cottage. This dog-friendly spot invites your entire pack to stay with open arms, happily hosting seven guests and two dogs across four comfortable bedrooms. The property’s close proximity to the harbour, the town’s four beaches and the Pembrokeshire Coast Path ensure that each and every dog walk is one that you won’t quickly forget, whilst the café culture at Tudor Square can be found metres away for enjoying food and drinks outdoors with your pup by your side.

Filled with charm from the moment you arrive, this Grade II-listed cottage has been lovingly decorated with nautical design elements as a reminder of your seaside location. A cosy hub awaits in the lounge with its comfortable sofas, inviting armchairs and a TV/DVD. Here you’ll find a gas burner emitting a warm glow on cold evenings, the perfect spot for Fido and Rover to curl up and snooze. Whether your enthusiastic pups choose to sleep by your bedside or tucked up in the lounge, space for everyone to catch forty winks can be found on the first floor – choose from two doubles, a twin and a single room. And, despite offering no private outdoor space, the property’s ideal location and distance to Tenby’s attractions ensure you have all you need when the weather is bright and sunny.

With the view of Caldey Island in the distance, Tenby’s South Beach is your ideal destination when visiting with dogs. Less than 500 metres from your doorstep and backed by a traditional esplanade, this sandy beach offers an ideal spot for swimming, water sports and throwing a tennis ball for your energetic hound. An ever-popular doggy day out can be explored at nearby Carew Castle & Tidal Mill (7 miles) or the village of Saundersfoot just 3.5 miles along the coast.

First class holiday experience. Beautiful cottage in a perfect location. Family of 5 adults and one dog; We couldnt have asked for anything more. Dont let the lack of a parking place deter as there are car parks within a short distance and its possible to unload luggage in cob lane. We were lucky to find a parking space just outside the town wallsRead more due to visiting earlier in the season, although there are various car parking options including a parking permit which can be pre- paid in advance. However, be warned not to park within the residential permit parking areas without a permit (market by white lines) as Tenby is hot on ticketing. We will be returning next year! Hide

This cottage is just off the high street on a small road just big enough to drive up but (no parking outside). You can stop to drop off. Walk to pubs and restaurants 1-2 mins. The beach 1-2 minute walk and it is possible to walk to the coastal paths north and south. Parking is available at the long stay at Sainsburys (7 minute walk) and you can payRead more for the week (about 35). There is a gas fire. A great location to drive to stunning coastal walks. The Alltrails app gives details of amazing walks Hide

China Cottage is absolutely beautiful and in the perfect location to explore Tenby. My family of 6 adults, a 3 year old and 5 month old baby, stayed over New Year where the weather was very cold, but the cottage was very warm and cosy but had enough space for all of us. I would definitely recommend renting this fabulous property.

Absolutely amazing cottage! Perfect location, clean, spacious and with everything you could need. The welcome gifts were lovely, although we didn't imbibe but litle touches such as having tea coffee and milk available made it a lovely homely feeling. Location cannot be faulted, even though we must be in hundreds of pictures taken of the gorgeous flRead moreowers outside. Beds were comfy, shower great and plenty of room for the puppo to feel at home. If you stay anywhere in Tenby, it has to be here! Hide

We had a fantastic stay at China Cottage to celebrate our first wedding anniversary with our four children. The cottage was spotless throughoutcleanliness was second to none. The location was peaceful yet close enough to local attractions, making it ideal for a family break. We were really impressed with the value for money, especially considering Read morethe high standard of comfort throughout the cottage. The beds were cosy, the decor tasteful, and the space perfect for a family of six. Hide

Another wonderful stay in the beautiful China Cottage. It really is the most amazing place to stay. Right in the heart of the town, yet so much space and comfort for the five of us. We had grand parents for a few days as well and they loved it. Our dogs love it here too. If youre going to holiday in Tenby, then theres no better place to stay.
