PLANS for retractable awnings at the Beachside Café, Saundersfoot have been conditionally approved by national park planners.

The application by the Saundersfoot Beach Company to Pembrokeshire Coast National Park received no objections from Saundersfoot Community Council.

An officer report recommending approval said: “The café is a modern, stone-clad kiosk building, which serves café food and drinks. It faces east onto the sands of Saundersfoot Beach, to the north of Saundersfoot Harbour, with views of Saundersfoot Bay and the wider Carmarthen Bay beyond.”

It added: “The property is accessed from the beach, and through the ‘Old Chemist Inn’ and lies amongst a mixture of modern and traditional buildings within Saundersfoot Conservation Area.

“This application proposes attaching two canvas full cassette awnings to the principal (east) elevation of the kiosk building.”
