Nautilus is a stunning property in Penally designed by the architect behind Channel 4’s Grand Designs Lifeboat House in neighbouring Tenby. Curving with the natural shape of the hill, the property delivers a unique, submarine-inspired design paired with exceptional views.
Panoramic glass windows provide clear, sweeping views across Tenby, Caldey Island and the wider Pembrokeshire coastline from every room. Set on a quiet private road on the edge of Penally, the house offers a peaceful setting while keeping you close to everything this area is known for.
Penally is a small, friendly village with a relaxed feel. It has two good pubs, a local bakery, a train station, and easy access to the beach. The village also appeals to golfers, with two golf clubs within walking distance—Penally Golf Club and Trefloyne—and another only a short drive away. Penally Beach, quieter than Tenby’s main beaches, is an easy walk and links straight onto the Pembrokeshire Coast Path.
Just a mile away lies Tenby, one of Wales’ best-known seaside towns. Tenby offers a wide mix of restaurants, pubs, independent shops, and cafés. Its medieval town walls and narrow streets give it real character, while the harbour is a focal point for boat trips, fishing, and watersports. The town’s three sandy beaches—North Beach, Castle Beach, and South Beach—are consistently rated among the best in the UK. Tenby is lively in summer, relaxed in winter, and has plenty to do all year round, from coastal walks to local events and festivals.
Back at Nautilus, you can enjoy all of this from a distance when you want to. The elevated position lets you look out over Tenby’s colourful townscape and coastline, including a perfect view of the annual firework display—visible from the comfort of the house, and without the noise.
A standout property in an excellent location, offering striking architecture alongside the convenience and charm of Penally and Tenby.
