After six years of hard work and determination, brother and sister partnership Tom Beynon and Sarah Knight were delighted to be awarded the Visit Wales five stars for bed and breakfast accommodation at Trefloyne Manor.

Whilst it has been very much a family affair, it has been Tom and Sarah who have made Trefloyne the warm welcoming place it is today.

"Visit Wales were very impressed with the high standard of design and ambience in the bedrooms and bathrooms and the relaxed atmosphere in the bar and thoroughly enjoyed their evening in the Terrace Restaurant, although we were unaware of their presence," said Sarah.

It has been a labour of love for the family to revitalise a beautiful old house and the inspectors were very complimentary about the relaxed and friendly way in which they were welcomed.

Tom and Sarah say they just want guests to feel 'at home'. and with many returning time and again, they are obviously succeeding.

"Although Trefloyne is known for the golf course, we get many guests who are non golfers and come to enjoy the peace and tranquility of the Penally countryside and, with Tenby beaches just a short stroll away, to quote one of our guests, they feel 'far away from the problems of the world'."

Having set the standard, Tom and Sarah with chef Pip Christopher are quietly gaining a reputation for quality home cooking with a twist, using locally sourced and wherever possible, organic produce.

"The Terrace at Trefloyne is available to everyone, no matter what your budget or taste. So whether it's an al fresco lunch, intimate dinner for two, private party in the restaurant or wedding for 200 in the marquee, let us know what you like to eat, book in advance and we will cook for you. Oh and by the way , we now have a civil marriage licence for the Terrace.

"Our biggest thank you is to our excellent and loyal team who have helped us to get this award, we simply would not have done it without them - thanks mum," said Tom.
