As you enter Ripley House, hosted by Salt & City Stays, through the traditional front door, you're welcomed into a bright hallway that sets the tone for a memorable stay.

To the right of the corridor, the cosy stylish living room offers a comfortable retreat with plush seating and a smart TV, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration. Continuing along the corridor, you'll find the modern kitchen and dining area, fully equipped for preparing meals and enjoying them together at the dining table.

At the end of the hallway, the utility room provides practical amenities, and also hosts a ground-floor shower room with WC—ideal for freshening up after a day at the beach. The back door leads to a morning sun-filled courtyard, where you can enjoy breakfast or a BBQ in the outdoor seating area.

Beneath the stairs lies the basement games room, a delightful space featuring a gaming TV, bean bags and a pool table. With board games to also pass the time there is entertainment options that cater to all ages.

Upstairs, on the first split landing there is the main family bathroom with sink, WC, walk-in shower and bath. Then following the staircase up to the main landing you will find the master suite, complete with an ensuite shower room and dressing area, offering a private sanctuary. This floor also hosts a second double bedroom.

The top floor features two identical double bedrooms with street-facing views, each thoughtfully appointed for comfort. A rear-facing single bedroom, and a shower room serves this floor's guests.

Throughout Ripley House, you'll experience the perfect blend of historic charm and modern amenities, creating a welcoming environment for families and groups seeking a memorable stay in the heart of Tenby.

Salt & City Stay guests have exclusive access to the entire townhouse.

Ripley House is located on St Mary's Street within Tenby's historic town walls. During the summer months, Tenby operates a pedestrianisation scheme that restricts vehicle access to the town centre between 11:00am and 5:30pm daily.

The pedestrianisation scheme enhances the experience of staying in Tenby by offering a peaceful, traffic-free environment. It encourages outdoor dining, allowing you to enjoy your meals in a relaxed and safe setting.

During these hours, you will not be able to drive directly to Ripley House. However, you can drive to the entrance of The Paragon, which is just a short walk away from the property, at the end of St Marys Street.

The reserved parking bay is, helpfully, outside of the pedestrian zone also.

Outside of the restricted hours, you can drive directly to the property for loading and unloading.

Salt & City Stays will be available throughout your entire stay to ensure you have everything you need. From answering inquiries to assisting with recommendations or issues, we are here to make your stay seamless and enjoyable. You may hear from any of us in our small, dedicated team during your stay.

Nestled on St Mary's Street within Tenby's historic town walls, Ripley House is the perfect base to immerse yourself in the vibrant life of this charming seaside town.

Just a short stroll from Ripley House, you'll find Castle Beach, ideal for sunbathing and paddling, and South Beach, perfect for long walks along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. The harbour is also nearby, offering boat trips to Caldey Island, home to a peaceful monastery and lighthouse.

Tenby offers a delightful array of dining options, all within walking distance of Ripley House. Whether you're in the mood for a casual bite or a fine dining experience, the town has something for every palate. To help you navigate the local culinary scene, we've curated a selection of our favourite eateries and hidden gems. These recommendations are available in our guest portal, allowing you to browse and plan your dining experiences ahead of your stay.

For a taste of history, discover Tenby's rich past at the Tenby Museum and Art Gallery, the oldest independent museum in Wales. Explore the Tudor Merchant's House, a 15th-century property that brings 1500s life to light, or stroll through The Five Arches, a historic gateway offering picturesque views.

Ripley House's central location means you're within walking distance of all major attractions. The town's pedestrian-friendly streets make it easy to explore on foot. For excursions further afield, Tenby Railway Station is just a 10-minute walk away, connecting you to the wider wonders of Pembrokeshire.

While Tenby is a compact and pedestrian-friendly town, for those traveling by car, we recommend using North Beach Car Park, located at Gas Lane, SA70 8AT. This is where you'll find the reserved parking bay for Ripley House, with additional parking spaces available nearby.

For exploring beyond Tenby and not looking to bring the car Tenby Railway Station is just a 10-minute walk from the property, offering convenient connections to other parts of Pembrokeshire.

Tenby is also well-served by local and regional bus routes, making it easy to get around the area. For full details on bus services and timetables, visit Traveline Cymru.

For an eco-friendly option, several local shops in Tenby offer bike rentals, allowing you to explore the town and its stunning surroundings at your own pace.

Please note, the property is spread over multiple levels, including a basement, and may not be suitable for guests with mobility issues.
