Description from owner
Description
Accessed via quiet country lanes, yet only a short drive from the historic towns of Pembroke and Tenby, West Barn is a luxury and spacious yet comfortable split-level barn conversion, nestling in a sheltered hamlet among the rolling hills of the Pembrokeshire National Park just a short walk from the coastal path, dramatic cliffs and sandy beaches of Freshwater East.
Entering the barn from the ample parking area, you will be greeted by a large, stylish fully-equipped kitchen with integrated appliances, heated slate floor and high beamed ceiling. A farmhouse table is perfect for family meals. Moving through to the open plan lounge, passing a downstairs toilet and double bedroom on the way, both ideal for the mobility impaired, the main seating area is drenched in natural light from large French doors and traditional windows as well as two velux windows. With comfortable sofas, antique furniture and warm oak floors, guests can relax with a selection of books and DVDs, watch the large screen TV with Satellite and Freeview, or just gaze out at the garden watching farm animals grazing in the fields beyond.
The sense of space and light continues as you access the next level (six steps) on which will be found the cool, luxury bathroom with wood panelling, designer bath, heated slate floor and wet room with invigorating power shower which positively encourages indulgence and relaxation. Beyond, is the peaceful second bedroom whose considerable size amply accommodates twin four-poster beds. This level is completed by a utility room with central heating boiler and washing machine.
Up a few more steps reveals the third bedroom containing a king and single bed making it ideal as a family room. All three bedrooms are tastefully colour-coordinated and have warm, solid oak floors and dressing tables. Two of the bedrooms have sizeable wardrobes and TVs.
Outside
A walk outside reveals a tranquil and sheltered patio leading to large lawn with several features provided by our friendly and hospitable neighbours for the more energetic: swings, slides, football net! (Please note that the zip wires mentioned in some reviews are no longer available)
Beyond the garden is a woodland walk with picnic area and, eventually, the sea, which can be reached in 10-15 minutes via the fields or country lanes.
The whole hamlet comprises just half a dozen houses and the sound of a passing car is sufficiently rare as to make the whole area completely safe for children and adults to play and explore.
The large, open garden is overlooked by a completely unique tower offering commanding views across the hamlet and fields beyond. Whether it's to read, eat, keep an eye on the children playing or enjoy an evening drink, this unusual feature makes a stay at West Barn truly unforgettable.
Please contact me before you book if you wish to bring a dog. One well-behaved dog is welcome, subject to certain conditions and an additional charge. Parts of the garden are shared and not fully enclosed, however there is no passing traffic. Failure to disclose pets or to comply with the conditions may forfeit your damages deposit.

“Amazing”

“Weekend trip”
Unfortunately directions from petrol station in freshwater east itself weren't too clear as we couldn't find bishops close & felt that the lane entrance was bit further than 400 yards ...... shame the place was bit isolated but on the whole ABSOLUTELY AMAZING accommodation & loved the personal touch stories behind the individual pictures on walls- dog loved the garden

Response from the owner Thank you for your review. The garden is part owned by me (not just the patio but a large area) and includes exclusive use of a unique tower for relaxing on warm summer evenings. Yes it is left unfenced and most guests comment that they enjoyed the open grounds and ability to walk right to the sea without crossing any main roads. Our neighbours also let guests use the swings, trampoline etc but I appreciate not everyone will want these. Ive not known them to have a party before so while I apologise, I trust it does not put others off coming. I’ve stayed there many times and enjoy the seclusion it offers, and judging the feedback from the vast majority of guests this arrangement suits most. This summer has been exceptionally hot and I appreciate that on such rare occasions (!) it may be quite warm. However all the windows open wide and a fan is provided. I’m not aware of many other UK holiday cottages providing anything else such as air conditioning but I’m happy to look into this.
