Plans for a new multi-million pound mixed-use scheme in Tenby have been submitted to the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority, after architects were told last summer to go back to the drawing board by members of the authority's development management committee.
The latest plans submitted by South Terrace Properties Limited for the scheme on the site of the former Royal Gatehouse Hotel, which was destroyed by a fire back in 2008, consist of seven separate applications, with plans designed by C2J Architects.
The last set of plans for the scheme were unanimously refused by the Park Authority's development management committee back in July of last year, with chairman, Clr. Michael Williams, labelling the designs "totally alien" to Tenby.
As well as proposals for a new hotel on the former Gatehouse site, the latest applications again include plans for adjoining properties at Milford House and Kent House, the Royal Playhouse Cinema and land at Clifton Rock.
Further proposals include the redevelopment of the Royal Lion Hotel in White Lion Street, and units at the Delphi Apartments in South Parade.
The plans comprise of 39 apartments on the Royal Gatehouse site, plus a 68-bedroom hotel, a replacement cinema and three commercial units.
On the garage site, there are nine self-contained apartments; on the Delphi site there are 14 housing units, 12 of which would be affordable housing, plus five commercial units; and on the site of the Royal Lion there would be a combination of commercial units and self-catering hotel suites.
As well as these applications, the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority have also received Listed Building and Conservation Area applications for the development.
"The authority can confirm that it has received new plans for the redevelopment of land on the site of Tenby's former Royal Gatehouse Hotel and adjacent sites," a spokesperson said.
"Together, these applications form a major redevelopment proposal in the National Park. The scheme will be considered by the National Park Authority development management committee once the applications have been processed and consultations are complete." added the spokesperson.
Members of Tenby Town Council have received the plans and will be holding a meeting to view them next week, ahead of giving their recommendations on the proposals at the next full meeting of the council on February 1.
The plans are set to be discussed by members of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority's development management committee at a meeting on February 23.
