It only takes me forty minutes to drive to Tenby from my village but I'm ashamed to say I have only ever been twice but it is a beautiful place and well worth the visit

[@TheNatashaDebbieShow]

​@@tj3229 what??? WHY?? 😮

[@tj3229]

We are quite lucky as I'm only about a fifteen min drive from 3 different beaches but they are nothing compared to Tenby

[@c0wbag49]

Plenty of cottages in Wales available for holiday rental 😊 Tenby is the far west coast.... plenty available down that way.... tiny single lane roads though. I love my home country, couldn't imagine living anywhere else its stunning imo And yes, there's always a few special properties for sale dotted about.... I even heard of a castle for sale recently 😂

[@c0wbag49]

Wales has more castles per square mile than anywhere else on the planet too

[@welshdude8025]

Sadly Wales is often overlooked by tourists favouring to visit London instead, yet Wales has so much to offer and more.

[@TombRaiderSyd]

ive visited wales twice and wish to go again, i fell in love both times. i live in east anglia for reference, flat country

[@GoblinKing13]

is that a bad thing when we think about it though ..........

[@diveguy4291]

In recent years tourism to this part of Wales has exploded and its putting a lot of pressure on local infrastructure, many of the beaches are now inaccessible during school holidays due to large visitor numbers, it was a well kept secret in the past with Cornwall being the default go-to for most brits but that secret is now well and truly out.

[@nevillecapper6529]

@@GoblinKing13t’s nice to keep it secret, but the tourism helps the local economy. The great divide by the Eagles sums up what can happen though. ;)

[@GoblinKing13]

@@nevillecapper6529 yep it's the same everywhere tourism is Tenby's main source of income.

[@susanashcroft2674]

I have noticed on some channels that when people come over to the UK they miss Wales out and as you can see it has so much beauty and this is coming from an English rose. I spent many happy times as a child...then as an adult holidaying in Wales and have so many precious memories. Todays video was a lovely way to start my day so thank you ladies for taking us round Tenby with Tim.

I live in the UK and have obviously heard of Tenby but I had no idea it was this beautiful. It looks absolutely stunning in the sun.

[@braces2]

My Dad was born in Tenby in 1914. He lived there till he was 12 and then they moved to a city in the Midlands. He hated it so much that he ran away back to Tenby and camped on the Rectory Field (now a car park) till he was found. His parents moved back to Tenby for their retirement. I went on holiday there every year from aged 1 to 19. It is a wonderful and uplifting place. Dad's ashes are scattered off Giltar Point at the end of the South Beach. There is so much to see round Tenby and it also has the best Fish and Chip shops in the country! It also has the largest parish church in Wales where Robert Recorde is buried. Who he? You ask - he is the man who invented the equals (=) sign.

[@pammyb1972]

Tenby is an amazing place, and a trip to Caldey Island is a must!! It’s a tranquil beautiful island. You really have to go there!! There’s a monastery on the island and the gift shop sells a lot of their hand made goods. There’s a perfumery as well and a tea shop. If you walk to the far side of the island you can watch seals on the rocks below. There is an amazing beach at Caldey too. You won’t regret visiting 😮

[@CarolineWillows-fz7sp]

I’m off there tomorrow myself ! I don’t live very far - about 6 miles away - but I love Caldey.

[@katwest6778]

Yep Tenby is beautiful! I’m from Swansea and we have a holiday home in Tenby a couple of miles away from the town centre, so we are there every chance we get and we love it! Such a relaxing place. Caldey island is a trip you absolutely have to do, the beach is fantastic there and the island itself is amazing, I love it! But yes to buy a house in Tenby town is very expensive. Loved this video 👏👏 xx

[@wendyfield7708]

Has this hotel all gone down hill because of Covid?

[@wendyfield7708]

The monastery on Caldey used to have a guest house, but I don’t know if it still does?

[@eclectica1]

I've been to that monastery, and eaten their home made chocolate. Fantastic experience.

[@chrismattravers5434]

Pembrokeshire is a beautiful county, it has 40 plus beaches. Tenby is a jewel ... but nearby Sandersfoot is lovely, Amroth is quiet .. so many lovely places. On your way to Tenby, you can stop at Laugharne (Carmarthenshire) and see the boathouse where Dylan Thomas lived! Don't rush the trip though - you'll leave and wished you'd stay a few days! X

[@shirleymoffat3338]

Watching the tide coming up into the estuary from the boathouse where he did his writing must have been inspirational. I've never forgotten it.

[@wildwine6400]

There's another really nice place about an hours drive from Tenby called St David's. I believe its the smallest city in the UK, probably not even 2000 people live there. Lots of beautiful scenery

[@kyliemitchellharper6872]

I love St Davids, beautiful spot. Im Aussie, spent 12 months there, just too cold

[@CinematicEnlisted]

yep, been there like 15 times, loved it every time - (also great for dogs)

[@pauldurkee4764]

Its seems from the comments that Tenby is one of Wales' best kept secrets. The whole county of Pembrokeshire is lovely. Whoever owns the shop selling paint is making a good living. With best wishes from Wales.

[@ellesee7079]

Just an idea, but maybe you could get a pinboard map of the UK, and pin all the places you want to visit when you're here, that way your subscribers can see, and make suggestions for nearby must sees, places to stay and easiest ways to travel between places. I can think of nothing worse than visiting somewhere then finding out there was something amazing just round the corner that you only find out about after you get home!

[@moonramshaw1982]

That's a great idea but they would need a lot of pins cos we have so many awesome places to visit👍👍

[@jojeffrie962]

Yep great idea 😂

[@ianprince1698]

its always the way just want to see this!

[@willswomble7274]

Definitely agree, simply amazing (and I'm Scottish). All of Wales is well worth exploring and walking. There are beautiful, spectacular gardens in both South and North Wales which are worth a day enjoying each, too! Bodnant (N), Aberglasney (S) and the National Garden of Wales (S), to name but a few (see Ggle). Don't forget a camera! Much of the UK is enjoying a great May/June fortnight of cloudless 18 - 24 C weather right now.

[@TimeyWimeyLimey]

Most of us in the UK stay in Bed and Breakfast Hotels when we visit the seaside. Small, cosy hotels with a welcoming landlady, often family run, that provide Bed, breakfast and often an evening meal, communal lounge and bar. People keep returning year after year because of the friendly more personal service. You'll find many to choose from in every seaside town.

[@TreforestGump01]

I love watching our cousins across the water watching our beautiful country. Happy St. David’s day. Tenby is fantastic place and in the summer very popular. There’s so much to see along that coastline that you will be spoiled for choice.

[@mandypotts9090]

[@tudorthomas533]

I live in Tenby in my family's old house, retired here 15 years ago. I volunteer on St. Catherine's Island and I am on your video collecting the money at the bottom of the steps. Some questions you asked... How much are houses? Expensive! Tenby has been discovered by Londoners. The houses you see from the fort are more than £1 million each. There are cheaper houses but a lot are second homes or rented as AirBnB's so the cheapest are £250,000/350,000 plus. So to answer your second question there are plenty of places to stay and many hotels as well. The peak season is traditionally Easter to the end of September for visits but many people prefer staycations outside the season when Tenby is less crowded and prices are cheaper. If you come to Tenby come and say hello if you visit the fort.

[@slartibartfast99]

Only reservation about visiting Wales, like most of the UK, is the weather. It's rains a lot in Wales. Catching a day like this is rare

Have a caravan near Tenby and Live in Swansea with loads of space if you ever make it to Wales and need a free stay. Swansea is pretty much surrounded in amazing scenery being one of the greenest counties in the UK. Check out The Mumbles, Gower and just outside Swansea, the Brecon Beacons...oh and Joes Ice cream. As for South West Wales up to North Wales, there's just so much unspoilt quiet spaces. It is an un-appreciated gift to many living here at least in the summer. It's quite nice in the winter too!

[@jacquelinepearson2288]

As a Brit, I am learning a lot about the UK from the two of you! I went on family holidays as a child to North Wales, but I am totally unfamiliar with South Wales. Tenby is gorgeous! You are right - you would think it was somewhere abroad. After so many years going to Europe, there are so many stunning places in the UK which I now want to visit. In your video about holiday plans, you mentioned coming over during the school holiday period (which in England is 6 weeks from approx 21-25 July to first week of September). You do need to bear this in mind as accommodation will get booked up quickly during this busiest period.

Funny seeing you react to one of Tim's videos, I've been subscribed to his channel since its very early days. I've even had a holiday on the Norfolk coast because of him! But Tenby really is something else! I love it so much that I'm seriously considering moving there.

Tenby is lovely - go there most years - you can explore further west to st David’s - which is also beautiful; also saundersfoot--- there is a lovely walk from saundersfoot to Tenby across the cliffs - really lovely

[@SJD9987]

Tenby is such a great place to visit. I have been so many times but I still enjoy going there.

[@roberth.7260]

My wife and I love Tenby. We have been visiting for a few years and it is really great on many levels. Plenty of restaurants and eateries, beautiful beaches and walking and an ideal base to explore more of Pembrokeshire, which is (mostly) a beautiful part of Wales. The Pembrokeshire Coast Path is really beautiful. A visit to St Davids is a must see, and if you are interested in history then Pembroke Castle is worth a visit. However, a few words of guidance. It gets very busy during the school holidays - late July through to the start of September ( book well ahead if you want to eat out). The weather can be quite variable, so come prepared for sun, rain, hot and cold. Our favourite time is early July. A boat trip out to Caldey Island is recommended - a monastery dating back 1,500 years, it is now mainly a nature reserve with red squirrels and other wildlife. It’s only a 20 minute boat ride from Tenby and makes for a lovely day out. For visitors from, for example, the US, please bear in mind that it is a 4-hour (plus!) drive to Tenby from the western fringes of London. We live in Surrey and we break our journey for lunch in Chepstow, which is a destination in itself. The M4 through South Wales can get very very busy so don’t expect to be driving at 70mph! It’s worth it though 😎 PS: If you can book It, we can recommend the Ocean Suite at the Atlantic Hotel - a well hidden gem.

I love Tenby. In fact the whole of the Pembrokeshire coast which it is situated on is stunning and varied. I definitely recommend you watch more videos on this area e.g. The cathedral in St Davids, Pembroke castle (which is a lot more intact than Tenby"s), pretty Solva and the rest of the amazing coast.

There are so many wonderful things to do in Wales and especially in West Wales.

We used to go to tenby for our holidays, Best place to visit

[@neilstonehill7196]

I work in Tenby and you need to book as early as possible as everything gets sold out very early. To answer your question it’s very hard for local people to rent a house as accommodation is generally used as holiday rentals.

[@commiebastard3633]

I lived there for a year and a bit in 2007 for about £50 a week. I am local though and had connections. Now Tenby is getting more attention, it becomes increasingly difficult for locals to buy a house etc. Most move away for employment as it is the arse end of nowhere with nothing outside of seasonal work for the young, and maybe the building trades for the homes of the rich who move there. Once gone, you can't get back unless you live in your parents house.

[@CarolineHenderson-oe2ts]

The Fourcroft Hotel was turned into apartments quite a few years ago. I live about 5 miles away from Tenby. It’s absolutely beautiful and Caldey Island just a short boat ride away is fantastic.

Hey ladies! Tenby is an amazing place to visit all year around. You could stay in a hotel or b&b in Tenby . It’s a bit expensive and books up quickly. You could also stay at saundersfoot near by. There are also many camp sites where you can hire a mobile home! With all the comforts of home. You can also stay for free with moi if you wish I don’t live too far from Tenby , under an hour’s drive away. Tenby is very touristy in Summer but there are locals living there. What wasn’t mentioned in the video that is a must to take the boat ride to Caldey Island. Caldey is home to a monestery. The monks are still at the monastery. They make their own wine and beer which can be bought. They have gift shops with their gifts and souvenirs. Hope this gives you some more info . Take care x

There are gems like this all over, like Scarborough it's very hilly and that no doubt deters those who don't like walking or hills... Lincolnshire is flat, that's why it's popular...

Just remember London is obvious the real beauty of the British Isles is in places just like Tenby, when I was young we never went abroad as my Dad wanted us to understand the country we lived in. There are so many idyllic places.

Loved Tenby, wandered into a pub and the landlord said 'Aw, we're not open for another hour.....would you like a drink while you wait?' - They're very friendly in Tenby, brilliant. Love Debbie's 'We can buy that'. I'd definitely pick end of May/June for your trip over - the weather is likely to be good & it doesn't get dark till gone 10.30pm in Scotland, perfect for sitting by the side of a Loch. All the gardens & parks will be in full bloom. Yes, the sea is cold, it's always cold. When booking accommodation don't overlook Caravan Holiday Parks - you can rent a self-catering static caravan/lodge for a good price and within easy reach of lots of stuff to see and do.

Oh and you do realise you have tons of UK followers and when you come here I suspect you'll be occasionally recognised and welcomed with delight. I mean I'm definitely going to visit Tenby, but I'll just be another ice-cream-licking bloke in a hat. There's a chance that when you do, they'll carry you everywhere in chairs.

There are some stunning places in the UK, and they look even better when the weathers great, but when it's cold, cloudy, windy, and pissing down with rain, they aren't so great. Having lived in the uk for 65 years, my advice is visit during the summer, July and August is the best time.

[@pennymalvern8689]

Love your videos Debbie and Natasha! Just one warning about visiting Britain - the vagaries of the weather. Tenby and any other place looks much better with a blue sky overhead. I'm a 'senior' now, but we used to go often in the summer to Tenby and only have happy memories. We stayed at a superior type Caravan park just further down the beach from the town, went with our friends when their kiddies were younger, including our own young son. The beaches are as good as they look here. One year we could not stand on the beach with bare feet because the sand was so hot! In a later year we stayed at a large hotel on the South Beach opposite beautiful Caldy Island, and our large corner window took in the gorgeous view. When we had arrived though it was blowing a small gale and raining. The next day it was warm and wonderful for walking. Just remember the tip about the weather. Pembrokeshire (its English name) is the county and is green and not so mountainous as some part of Wales. I'm English, but I give high marks to Tenby and other places in Pembrokeshire. Wales has great beauty - but the weather can sometimes let you down. As long as you remember that, I hope when you visit Britain you are rewarded by good weather. (I personally love our weather, it suits me with all its changes and variety). Hope this is helpful. You are great.

Hi! What a gorgeous video - I'm Welsh and it's been many years since I visited Tenby - might have to rectify that soon. Of course this was made all the more gorgeous by the sunny weather - that's not always the case in Wales, we are famous for our rain. The sea would be fine to bathe in on a hot day, but off season it would get quite cold. If you like castles, you must spend some time in Gwent, on the Welsh border with England. the land was so contested there, that there are more castles than anywhere else in the uk. Pretty much every town has one - some in far better state of repair than others. Some of the more impressive castles to visit in South Wales are Chepstow Castle, Raglan Castle, Caerphilly Castle, Pembroke Castle, Castel Coch & Cardiff Castle (the last two are modernised somewhat - both were renovated and redesigned in the victorian era, and their interiors are absolutely astounding - a must see, if you love Victorian art and opulent stately homes). If you do stay near Tenby, I'd recommend a trip to Bannau Brycheiniog (the Brecon Beacons national park), and a visit to the Henrhyd Falls, where you can stand behind a 90ft waterfall, Llangorse lake, Brecon Mountain Railway where you can take a ride on a steam locomotive, and the Welsh National Showcaves at Dan yr Ogof. We do have some absolutely beautiful areas in South Wales. As I'm part Cornish, it would be very remiss of me not to mention Kernow (Cornwall) as another area of beauty, with must-visit places. Mevagissey working harbour, the Roseland heritage coast are still fairly unspoilt, though tourist season can see the area packed with people. mid-late September is probably the best time to visit there, as the weather is usually still good, but many of the tourists have gone. I look forward to hearing more about your planned trip, sending you best wishes from Wales.

West Wales...it's like Cornwall without the crowds. Beautiful and ancient. The church at Navan has bleeding yews as well as fragments of Celtic carved stonework in its construction. A little path at the back leads to a hermits cave with the stone hollowed out from knees that have knelt at the entrance. Stunning area.

[@pmcommando]

"Without the crowds" 😂😂😂😂 I live in Tenby, its horrendously busy in the summer

[@larryfroot]

@@pmcommando Good point! But the wider coast was what I had in mind. I really should have been more specific.

[@carolinel6236]

The colourful houses overlooking the water are very expensive, more so than inland. There are places to stay, book ahead or you could stay at maybe St Davids and drive to Tenby for the day

[@bill-wd7zs]

A lovely area indeed, I used to occasionally go to Saundersfoot camping which is the next village down the coast from Tenby. It's a shame he didn't show the lifeboat station, it's open to the public and well worth a visit.

[@ftumschk]

As a kid, I always thought that Saundersfoot was next to Felixstowe ("Saunders' foot" and "Felix's toe"). How wrong I was!

[@ulysses2162]

20:35 Not sure if it's still there, but when I was there last, there is a fantastic Greek restaurant in the castle wall there where he is walking along.

[@samanthaearl9095]

Morning everyone, hope you are all well x

[@lizdavies3867]

Yes we are. Try looking at Pembroke not all that far from Tenby. Lush it is.

[@vanburger]

One of my favourite places in all of Britain. But like all seaside towns in winter, Tenby can be quite bleak.

[@NuclearFridge1]

Agreed. My parents grew up there and in the winter the town basically shuts down.

[@MGEE8572]

Im off to Tenby in late september making it my first trip into Wales and watching Tim's video made me decide.

[@jasonbilb]

If you visit Tenby, it's worth heading round to the cardigan coast to Aberteifi. It is a beautiful town and has a castle 🙂

[@eanjamesmogg9488]

LOL Every town has a Castle in Wales except where I live we have five to six within a mile or two??

[@tammyjames3891]

You should absolutely visit west Wales, Tenby is one the loveliest places but there is so much to see and loads of places to stay x

[@jennifer5130]

What a beautiful little town. You'll definitely can't miss that.

[@januzzell8631]

Fond memories of Tenby - we used to live near Pembroke Dock (which is about 11 miles from Tenby) - there were beaches, castles and beautiful countryside in ALL directions - it was brilliant growing up there! Debbie - the ice creams are delicious and there used to be a shop called Fecci where they would create edible art! Natasha - Sea Puppies :D

[@hannahprosser357]

That particular Fecci's ice cream place is now a expensive restaurant but it's owned by the same people.

[@t.a.k.palfrey3882]

If indeed you have serious thoughts of moving to this area of Pembrokeshire (Sîr Penfro), then please remember that 30 percent of the area's people speak Welsh (Cymraeg) and that the town of Tenby is an anglicised abbreviation of the Welsh name Dinbych-y-Pysgod (Little fort of fishes). If you intend visiting Tenby, and Port Meirion, an inexpensive place to stay would be the university town of Aberystwyth, where student digs are rented out during the long vac. It is 70 miles north of Dinbych-y-Pysgod and 57 miles south of Portmeirion. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@annpartoon5300]

Aberystwyth has a castle

[@andybaker2456]

Interesting. When I was in Tenby, I struggled to find someone who could write something in Welsh for me! Granted, I didn't ask everyone in the town, so it's likely that those I did ask were in the 70% who don't speak Welsh! In the end, I had to use Google Translate. 😄 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@Richieguy10]

South Pembrokeshire is known as 'little England beyond Wales'. Tenby is about as Welsh speaking as Bristol 😂. How do I know? I live in Pembroke, 10 miles from Tenby 😉. Ladies, if you come to Tenby I would be honoured to show you around 🙂

[@johnbell2722]

Think you will find it extremely difficult to relocate permanently to anywhere in UK from the USA in view of strict immigration laws.

i work in wales, and i'm always amazed with the costal views just as you pass abagele on the A55 cominig from liverpool. the views of deganwy, the little orm and great orm are stunning in the early hours....you have to see to believe.

[@philipcochran1972]

All thanks to the Gulf Stream and the Jet Stream without which the UK would be like Canada. If you travel near Liverpool you may want to have a look at Port Sunlight village on the Wirral. William Lever built the village in 1888 for the workers of his Sunlight soap factory to give them a better quality of life. The Lever Bros company became Unilever.

[@caroletraynor8763]

You get all these little gems all around the uk. Just need to know where to look.

[@shirleymoffat3338]

Tenby is indeed beautiful. In fact that whole coastline is stunning - only a few miles to the east is the Gower peninsula, an area of outstanding natural beauty. You'd better come to the UK for at least a month if you want to see even a tiny part of all that this country has to offer. Has anyone told you about the Scilly Islands yet?

[@SolarVibeEnergy]

Yep me & seen others, for sure they'll wanna add to ever go rowing list they gonna need more than a mth soon or just not go home. 😂

[@lindablackley4916]

great video as always ,incredible views too , the blue of the sky matches the blue of the sea perfectly . very nice an informative too ..😍😄😉

[@altvamp]

One thing to remember about Wales is that they have have a lot of rain and storms coming from the west over the sea, that photo must have been a very rare day when it was clear and sunny, We go camping all over the country at the dryest time of the year and the two times we've had bad weather were both in Wales, I lost a tent that completely collapsed in gale force winds and another with broken pole section. Even the Lake District was better and that's supposedly renowned for a lot of rain. ☹️☹️

[@eanjamesmogg9488]

Britain as a whole gets less rain than New York City but we do get a butt load of fine rain 🙄

[@aljones4719]

We call it "liquid sunshine". Wales gets less rain than Brittany and Ireland.

[@martinwebb1681]

@@aljones4719 ... Well I have only been to Wales twice, never again. Two week trip and it rained almost the whole time, very dismal. The other trip thankfully was just a couple of days, it was totally overcast for both days ... but at least it didn't rain. I live in the East of England where thankfully we get far less rain.

[@jasonalldridge5784]

The weather is the same today as in the video.

[@grahvis]

We are in the middle of a long period of sunshine.

[@unojayc]

Great video guys, I love Ten by!...👍

[@adeaston6553]

Tenby is hellish expensive. Its actually cheaper to have 10 days in Spain than 10 days in Tenby.

[@commiebastard3633]

Yes, but you can say that about most British seaside towns. It's probably cheaper to have 10 days in Spain than 5 days in a UK holiday destination depending on your habits.

[@moonfaeriemagick]

I was brought up in Tenby during the 70s, I absolutely loved it, spent many a day playing on the beach and around the harbour

[@davidhyams2769]

The thing to remember about British seaside towns is that although they look good in the sunshine, they are really awful when it's cold, wet or windy (or all 3 at once) which, with our weather, is quite a lot of the time, although some do have interesting places to visit where you can go inside. They can be great places to visit for a day or two, but these towns really aren't anywhere you'd want to be living outside the main tourist months and especially in the winter. The fact is that they are some of the poorest communities in the country. Recently, that has been alleviated somewhat by the increase in people working from home following the pandemic and moving away from the expensive big cities, which has pushed up house prices in these places to the detriment of local younger people looking to buy their first home.
