Worcester Cottage, Tenby, is a magnificent historic gem designed by renowned architect John Nash in the 1800s, tastefully renovated to blend period charm with contemporary comfort. The country-style kitchen features earthy-coloured tiles, white units, and modern conveniences including an electric hob and oven, fridge / freezer, dishwasher, and coffee machine, plus a convenient breakfast bar perfect for morning coffees. Step into the bright, airy open-plan living area where comfortable sofas surround a wood burner-effect electric fire and Smart TV, while a large dining table sits beside a window bathed in natural light, creating a wonderfully inviting atmosphere for family gatherings.
Outside, discover a small, gravelled garden with a bench at the front, perfect for enjoying your morning coffee, plus a practical outdoor area with a hose and drying space – ideal for rinsing off sandy feet after beach adventures or storing paddle boards and bicycles. Upstairs, accessed via a characterful staircase believed to be crafted from an old ship's mast, you'll find two beautifully appointed bedrooms: a spacious king-size room with ample storage and balcony access, plus a comfortable double. The bright bathroom, adorned with gleaming white tiles and illuminated by a roof window, features a shower over bath and heated towel rail, ensuring comfort and convenience during your coastal retreat.
Imagine waking to golden morning light streaming through your window, brewing fresh coffee at the breakfast bar as you plan your day's adventures.
