Best Hotel Restaurants in Pembrokeshire for a Food-Led Break

In Pembrokeshire, the walk before dinner can be as memorable as the meal. The choice is whether to wake up above a harbour, near Tenby’s beaches or in the quiet of a country-house estate. These four stays have a restaurant on site, so the journey back after dinner is mercifully short.

At a glance: St Brides for Saundersfoot views and a spa; Penally Abbey for a small hotel near Tenby; The Dunes for food and fairways; Grove of Narberth for a destination tasting menu.

How we chose these hotel restaurants

We selected venues in the Gourmet Getaways catalogue where the restaurant belongs to the overnight stay, then checked the restaurants and accommodation against their own current websites. All four suit a food-led break. That does not mean every room rate includes dinner: some are bed and breakfast stays with the meal booked separately. Check your chosen rate and reserve the table as well as the room.

1. St Brides Spa Hotel and The Cliff, Saundersfoot

The point of staying at St Brides is to let the coast set the pace. The Cliff overlooks Saundersfoot and gives you a proper restaurant evening after a walk by the harbour or time in the spa. Seafood feels particularly right here, although the menu follows the season rather than a single theme. It is an easy choice for a couple who want the sea and the dining room to carry equal weight.

The hotel describes The Cliff and publishes its current stays and offers. Some include dinner; others offer it as an extra, so confirm the terms for your date. See St Brides Spa Hotel.

2. Penally Abbey and Rhosyn, near Tenby

Penally Abbey is the intimate option: a small hotel with gardens, sea views and a candlelit restaurant. Rhosyn is the reason to book dinner at home rather than venture into Tenby. Spend the afternoon on the coast, then return for a meal that still feels like part of the escape. The hotel says its rooms include breakfast; ask separately about the dinner charge or any dining package.

3. The Dunes and The Links, Tenby

The Dunes appeals if you prefer a contemporary room and a restaurant that lets the local produce speak plainly. The Links sits in the Tenby Golf Club building with the guest accommodation, close to South Beach. You do not need to play golf to enjoy dinner here; you can simply walk the coast, settle in and book a table downstairs.

The Dunes explains the rooms and on-site dining; The Links describes its approach to Pembrokeshire produce and recommends reserving a table if you are staying. See The Dunes and The Links.

4. Grove of Narberth and Fernery

Leave the beach behind for one evening and head inland to Grove of Narberth. Fernery is the destination dinner of this group, with a tasting-menu format that asks you to give the meal your full attention. The hotel also has the more relaxed Artisan Brasserie. Choose Fernery when the menu is the point of the trip; choose the brasserie when you want the country-house stay without a long formal dinner.

The hotel’s dining and room overview identifies both restaurants; its guest information gives current service details. Book the restaurant separately unless your rate explicitly names it. See Grove of Narberth and Fernery.

Before you book

For a luxury dinner, bed and breakfast break in Pembrokeshire, start with the restaurant’s opening days. Then decide whether you want a meal included in the rate or prefer to choose freely from the menu. Check breakfast, dinner allowances and any spa access in writing. The best arrangement is the one that leaves you free to enjoy the place once you arrive.
