As you find it today, Penally Abbey is a true labour of love for the Boissevain family. It is home to a candle lit restaurant called Rhosyn, 12 beautiful bedrooms, a happy little spaniel called Maud and acres of wonderful woodlands & gardens. Located just outside Tenby, and a 10 minute walk from the magical Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, Penally is a place where time slows down and sea views, squishy armchairs and home-cooked food soothe the soul. A elegant, spacious bedroom with a super kingsize bed and luxury furnishings including a sofa (which can be made into an extra bed) and a cosy armchair.

We were looking for a beautiful location, independent luxury hotel with fabulous food for a short break. This is exactly what we got and more! Our room (room 6 with floor to ceiling glorious sea view) is perfect - won't elaborate, exactly as website. Train and bus 2 minutes away to take you up or down coast for fabulous coastal path walks back to hotel. The food is to die for, both breakfast and dinner, will definitely be back.

The MOST beautiful hotel with the MOST attentive staff.we were seriously impressed! Thank you to everyone who looked after us so well. The attention to detail in everything was superb, from perfectly crafted cocktails by an excellent, engaging and friendly barman to the delicious dinner and breakfasts in the sumptuous surroundings of an elegant dining room.
The bedrooms are in keeping with the luxurious feel of the lounge, dining room and bar. The design and furnishings make the space feel considered but not overpowered. It is rare that we would go back to a hotel, as we prefer to try something new, but we will most definitely go back to Penally Abbey. A quick shout out tot he owners.not only did you create the most elegant, relaxing and ambient spaces but you also chose your staff so well. 10 out of 10!

The chef would have 5 stars all food was great. The building is lovely but decor a bit overdone. Waiting service variable 1st night and breakfast just average and unfortunately didn't know their wine. second night with Joel was great and breakfast the following day same didn't pick up the lady's name but from Pembroke Dock was lovely. If you are allergic to highly scented soaps bring your own because they can't or won't offer an alternative

We stayed at Penally Abbey to celebrate my birthday just before Christmas and it could not have been more perfect. We were welcomed so warmly and the staff were so friendly and accommodating throughout. They made such an effort with lots of lovely treats which made my birthday even more special - they really did go above and beyond! We stayed in one of the coach houses with a beautiful view out to sea.
The room was luxurious and comfortable - as was the rest of the house. Delicious food, delightful cocktails and wine, in a simply stunning place. Could not recommend it highly enough! Thank you, Penally - we'll be back soon

What can I say and where do I start! It was Christmas and I and my two friends were excited and expectant. From the moment we arrived, it was magical. We were greeted warmly and sincerely by the attentive staff. Our rooms were fabulous and the food and service was perfect. Christmas will never be the same again! Thank you Lucas and Mel and all the team for an unforgettable experience.

Beautiful property and rooms! Loved our stay at Penally Abbey Hotel. They upgraded us to a room with an incredible view, and all the meals we ate were delicious - right from breakfast, to tea and dinner. The wifi was a bit spotty in the room, but then they also left a variety of magazines and novels to read - just what you need to do on holiday! Will definitely be back when we're visiting Pembrokeshire again.
