Gwynne House - 6 Bed Holiday Home - Tenby Harbour

This beautiful newly decorated 200 year old Grade II listed building fits for the perfect getaway situated overlooking the Harbour in Tenby. Sleeping 12 people over 6 bedrooms and it being a stone’s throw from the beach Gwynne House makes for the perfect family holiday. Gwynne House is also the property that Mary Ann Evans aka George Eliot was inspired to write her first novel that was published in 1857. On entering Gwynne House, you are greeted by its high ceilings and original wooden floors. To the right of the hallway, you have a large light and airy dining room boasting views of the Harbour and North Beach. In the centre of the hallway, you will find a snug where you can store all your coats and shoes. Further through the snug you enter a large family bathroom with a roll top bath with handheld shower and a large walk-in shower offering a rainfall shower head and handheld shower head. This bathroom also offers a double sink, toilet, washing machine and tumble dryer. To the end of the hallway, you have the kitchen - this offers everything you would need to cook up a storm for you all to enjoy including a double oven, American fridge/freezer, dishwasher and breakfast bar. From the centre of the hallway, you find the stairs. With its roof window it allows the light to bounce through keeping the stairwell light and airy. On the first floor you will find the George Elliot room with a double bed, large flat screen smart TV, seating area and WC. On the second floor to the front of the property is the lounge. This is the perfect place to wind down after a busy day by either admiring the view over the Harbour and beach, using the binoculars to spot the wildlife or boats coming in or by kicking back on the velvet sofas and watching the 65inch flat screen smart TV. Across from the lounge you will find the John Gwynne suite. This boasts a superking bed, large flat screen smart TV, seating area and en-suite with shower. Making way up to the third floor you have the Caldey suite offering twin beds, large flat screen smart TV and en-suite with shower, sink and toilet.

With a double bed situated so that you have views of the Harbour and out to sea whilst waking up in the morning or falling asleep, seating area in the window, large flat screen smart TV and an en-suite with a large walk-in shower, large sink and toilet. Making your way to the top floor within the eaves you will find two twin bedrooms. Both boast large flat screen smart TVs, have low lying beds and share a WC.

Equal parts history and heaven

The Gwynne House, with its history of writers inspired to create there, was just magical. It's difficult traveling with nine people, but the Gwynne House was just perfect as our Tenby home base. Stunning architecture and spectacular harbor views, large gathering area and dining room for group meals and activities, but also plenty of rooms to retire to for some solo time. We stayed one week and were heartbroken to leave. Property manager was very communicative and helpful, too. We'll be thinking of Gwynne House for a long long long time!

Great stay

Lovely house - fabulous location and photos live up to how it looks in reality. We were just a gathering of 5 adults, so spread out through the house and found it very comfortable and well stocked. If you are planning to visit Tenby this is a perfect location. Close to the hustle and bustle of main street ( just minutes away) but that quiet beautiful view to escape from it all
