View from Penally across Tenby Golf Course and Tenby South Beach.

The village itself is only small but does have three pubs The Cross, The Crown and The Paddock, a night club and a small post office. The local Church is called the Church of St. Nicholas & St. Teilo. It was originally just called St. Nicholas' but it was changed to St. Nicholas & St. Teilo at the end of the 19th century as it is suggested that Penally was the birthplace of St Teilo a Christian leader in the 6th century. The Church has two Celtic crosses in St. Teilo's Chapel they were originally in the graveyard but were resorted and moved into the Chapel.
The Tenby Golf Course runs along side the Tenby South Beach in front of the village. There are public footpaths that go through the course to allow people to walk to the bench and to walk to the near by town of Tenby. The start of the course itself is in Tenby.
There is also a firing range owned by the Ministry of Defence located between the village and the bench. It was built in the middle of the 19th century and was used to train soldiers during World War II. When the firing range is being used red flags are flown and there are sometimes officers stationed at huts along the perimeter line, some areas public foot paths are restricted when the firing range is in use. The firing range has its own byelaws that must be obeyed, these byelaws are on signs around the firing range perimeter.
Penally is also home to Hoyles Mouth Cave where some neolithic man/apes made a home.
