Description

The Tenby House Hotel is an inn with a painted roughcast exterior and a slate roof, featuring end stacks. It is three storeys high with a four-window front, a thin cornice, a parapet, and a thin sill-band on the second floor. The upper floor has nine-pane sash windows with shouldered surrounds, while the first floor features French windows with hoodmoulds that open onto an iron-railed balcony. This balcony was remodelled around 1998, with the rails either reset or remade to reflect the anthemion and opposed heart pattern originally published by Cottingham in 1823-4. The tented canopy seen in old photographs was reinstated on five uprights with matching ironwork.

On the ground floor, there are three 12-pane sash windows with stucco cornices on scroll brackets, and a doorway in the second bay that is topped with an entablature and cornice supported by two massive Doric columns, with 20th-century double doors. The left side wall has 20th-century windows, and the irregular wall face suggests that an older structure has been rebuilt. The hotel has a long rear wing with a former stable at right angles, both of which have been significantly modernised.

The interior was mostly altered during renovations around 1998. It features a single ground floor front room that opens into the long rear wing. The front windows have pine shutters, and there are two oak beams in the upper end of the rear wing. Another oak beam is located in the ladies' toilet to the left, which also has a large stone slab across a corner, likely once a fireplace lintel, indicating the possibility of an earlier structure on the site. There is a cantilevered staircase in a round well, although the lower flight has been removed.
