Located in Honeyborough in Pembrokeshire, the Barn is a dog-friendly cottage close to open farmland, as well as the magnificent Milford Haven Waterway. It is a perfect central base from which to explore all that Pembrokeshire has to offer. Located in Britain's only fully coastal National Park, guests can easily access over 50 beaches, from 2 mile stretches of sand to sleepy coves off the beaten track. Enjoy stunning views from the 186 mile coastal path from St Dogmaels in the north, to Amroth in the south. Why not visit Skomer Island to see beautiful breeding puffins, visit the birthplace of the Tudor dynasty at Pembroke Castle or sample locally grown food at one of our fabulous restaurants? There is something for everyone to enjoy no matter what their age.

My husband and I together with our two dogs cannot recommend The Barn (or the The Coach House) enough. From booking right through to arriving, Dympna and Bill look after you and give you a warm welcome. Perfectly located to explore Pembrokeshire, the cottage is beautiful. It is clean to the highest standard and the attention to detail is faultless. Upon arrival, our two dogs enjoyed sniffing out the wicker basket of dog treats and balls, my husband and I enjoyed the welcome hamper.

The dogs enjoyed longs walks and coming back to the cottage where they could fall asleep around the house, as dog blankets had also been provided or snoozed outside. There is large, secure, outdoor space directly outside the cottage for the dogs. They also enjoyed a walk down to the marina each morning.

We look forward to returning later this year.

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review; we were delighted that you returned for a short stay with us at the end of the school holidays after your Easter break with us, and we can’t wait to welcome you back in October! It is our absolute pleasure to welcome your dogs and leave treats for them - they are, after all, part of your family too. On their next visit they will be able to snuggle up in front of the log burner after their sojourns to the beach. We look forward to seeing you all again soon. Dympna & Bill

Lovely break

Just had a lovely weekend break in the beautiful Barn. Very clean and very well equipped. Lovely welcome packs for us and the dogs. Dympna and Bill have thought of everything and are wonderful hosts. Would definitely recommend to all my family and friends.

The property itself is a lovely building with modern, high-tech décor, located in a beautiful village with good access to local sights. The home was spotlessly clean and welcoming, providing a comfortable stay.

However, a few aspects could be improved. The presence of a ring doorbell felt somewhat intrusive for temporary accommodation. Communication from the host, while well-intentioned, was quite frequent before and after our arrival, and felt a little overwhelming after a long 11-hour journey, particularly during check-in when we would have preferred a quieter arrival.

For guests travelling with dogs, the property is less suitable. There is no enclosed outdoor area, and we were advised to use the local green down the road. Unfortunately, due to heavy rain, this proved difficult and the dogs were uncomfortable, which led us to leave earlier than planned along with other personal reasons.

Overall, the house is beautiful and very comfortable, but it may not be the most practical option for guests with pets or those seeking a more private and low-key experience. The photographs are not reflective of the actual property giving a more spacious feel. However, it’s quite cramped and you can hear next door go up the stairs and share a drive. A little squashed but very well maintained.

Finally, there is only one toilet. It is situated in the middle bedroom. So you have to walk through someone’s room to get to the toilet and shower/bath. Nevertheless, the bathroom probably has had the most money spent with state of the art shower and lighting.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts about your stay at the Barn. Firstly we hope that your other daughter, whose poor health meant you had to unfortunately return home after one night, has improved. Turning now to your thoughts regarding the cottage, we are very concerned about some of the points you have made which do not align with the +138 reviews from our guests since we opened 4 years ago. The reviews from guests staying with their dogs, have been universally positive. For the safety of dogs staying at the cottage, the garden at the Barn has a 5ft high wall with double gates which my husband advised you to close for the safety of your dogs (as we do with all guests who have dogs). The neighbouring guests, who use the same drive access due to the layout of the off road parking area, were informed that you had dogs and would be closing the gates. All guests are advised that, if the gates are closed, they should close them when they arrive or depart the neighbouring cottage. We don’t understand why you chose not to close the gates, yet you suggest that the garden is not enclosed, when it is - if guests close the gates. The green, which is a 2 minute walk from the cottage, is an area we point out to all guests, as we did with yourselves, for those dogs that require grass for their toileting, because we don’t currently have a grass area at the cottage. Many holiday let properties are now equipped with security cameras to ensure the safety of guests and their possessions, along with the properties when they are unoccupied between guests. The cameras also ensure that guests are not conducting illegal activities for which owners could be liable to prosecution. Similarly we have chosen to install security cameras over the parking area and a Ring doorbell for each cottage. The doorbells are a useful facility for guests when takeaway meals are delivered. The presence of the cameras is advised on entry to the properties but they are not routinely watched unless necessary. We do believe that the professionally commissioned photographs are very representative of the cottage, and many of our past guests have stated that they do precisely reflect the property. Our website also benefits from a Matterport Virtual Tour of the cottage which potential guests are free to view to gain a more detailed appreciation of the rooms. We are also very confused as to how you were able to hear the guests next door going up and down the stairs as there is a room between the soundproofed dividing wall which separates the cottages, and the stairs in the neighbouring property. One of our biggest concerns relates to your observation about the “third bedroom” - the Barn only has two bedrooms and this was explained to you in our correspondence when you initially contacted us about availability. When you enquired about the cottage, as your stay was for 3 people, we advised that you could have either two single beds in the second bedroom or, if you preferred, the second bedroom could be made up as a King bed which would mean that the third guest would use the full-sized, single daybed on the large landing. You chose the latter. The bathroom is off the landing, rather than a bedroom, which is the case in almost every house. Part of what makes our cottages stand out from the crowd, and enabled us to win three awards, is the personal service we give to our guests. We have tailored our email correspondence to be very personal rather than generic unlike so many of the bigger operators; in addition we communicate directly with our guests via text or WhatsApp to ensure that all and any questions are answered personally. We meet our guests on arrival, again detailed in confirmation emails, so we request an approximate arrival time with an update when guests are an hour away. We appreciated that your drive from Lincolnshire to Pembrokeshire involved a very long journey (of around 8-9 hours) for a short stay of only two nights, so we ensured that the walk around the cottage and explanation of such things as recycling and use of the Sky TV with your daughter whilst you stood outside, was as short as we could make it at between 10-15 minutes - it’s important to us that our guests get into the cottages as quickly as possible to relax and enjoy their stay. The reason for requesting an ETA is twofold: firstly it means that we can work around the most important people, our guests, and we can plan our day and, secondly (and by far the most important), it means that if guests are caught in traffic, have to stop to exercise their dogs, or they simply want to stop to get a drink or a meal, they aren’t feeling under pressure because they are worried about arriving late. Many of our guests comment on how much they enjoy being made to feel special because of our personal contact and service - and our guests ARE very special to us; they entrust their spare time to our care and it is our privilege and honour to ensure that they enjoy their time away from home whilst staying in our cottages. In an increasingly impersonal and isolating world, we pride ourselves on delivering traditional values of excellent communication and exceptionally good customer service, because every one of our guests is special and matters to us. We are very sorry that our USP did not align with your expectations. We really do hope that you find other, more suitable, accommodation for your future travels.

Great holiday

This property is outstanding - the attention to detail was second to none and it made for the perfect stay. Every comfort you would expect in a 5* hotel was present in The Barn. Immaculate and comfortable - we would certainly recommend this property to our friends.

They are also very knowledgeable of the area and are happy to offer suggestions to help guests make the most of their time. We were extremely pleased with the facilities and their quality. The Barn has all the comforts of home combined with the luxury of a hotel. Highly recommended.

Myself and my Dad stayed in 'The Barn' for two nights in November as we we're visiting my younger brother who lives in the local area. The place was absolutely spotless. The kitchen was full of everything you'll need should you decide to stay in and cook. The beds were very cosy, and the shower water was nice and hot. It's located on a very quite street with beautiful scenery in the surrounding area. We will definitely be back next year, highly recommended 5/5

From the original contact at time of booking right through to arrival & departure both Dympna & Bill were amazing hosts. They met us at the property & ran through details with us, giving us recommendations of where to visit within the area., plus checking in with us to see if we needed anything further. Nothing was too much trouble, with plenty of updates via WhatsApp., this was greatly appreciated. The accommodation was comfy, cosy and well thought out with everything that you could possibly need - should you wish to bake or even like us do a full Sunday roast. The log burner was an added bonus, once again plenty of logs plus Bill checked in with us to see if we needed more. This I have to say is very rare when holidaying in the UK., as you usually have to purchase extra. Location wise the property is a good area to enable visits to many local towns & villages, plus beaches., woodland, many goods walks to be appreciated with stunning scenery.

Another very enjoyable stay at the Barn, the second one this year, which makes I think, 8 visits since December 2021. We always say it feels like our holiday home. It has everything you need and the location is ideal for all the places we like to visit. I have been coming to Pembrokeshire for 22 years and have stayed in many different places but would not choose anywhere else now.

Just returned from a wonderful week staying at The Barn. A beautiful contemporary cottage, very clean, extremely well equipped to a high standard, with the bonus of being very dog friendly. We were greeted by the owner Dympna on arrival, who took time to show us around the property, its facilities, local area and answered our questions. The use of their app before and during our arrival helped make our stay stress free, with information at hand. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful part of Pembrokeshire.

We loved our stay at the Barn. Everything was incredibly modern and every thing you could ever imagine needing was available. The kitchen was fully stocked with brand new utensils and appliances. The beds were extremely comfortable - we all slept so well. We were also able to bring our cat on holiday with us, which is not very common, and we are very grateful for this. Dympna and Bill were wonderful and on hand for any queries. Overall, it was an excellent place to stay.

We spent two weeks in the barn and we had a great time over there. ( it was our second time there )The cottage was very comfortable. There is absolutely nothing to complain!! There is everything what you need for an excellent time. We felt at home and even our dog felt great. The owners Dympna and Bob are very friendly and we had a few good chats together. The local people around there are very friendly too. If you like to go to church, you should go to St. Clements church. We met a lot of nice people there!!
Thank you very much for everything.
We will be back !

This was our 1st stay in Wales and we couldn't have picked a better place to stay.

The welcome from Bill and Dympna was lovely and the cottage itself was amazing. So comfortable and well stocked..they've honestly thought of everything you may need for a holiday cottage. Even having the child gates attached which prevented our 2 dogs from going upstairs was fab!

I would happily return, however, one wee ask would be for the wooden fence from the Coach House to be extended along to The Barn. This would make the property totally dog friendly and would've allowed us to keep the front door open. We were able to shut the main gate the 2nd week as no guests were in next door, however, we felt the 1st week that if guests next door came and went, they may have forgotten to shut the gate.

Don't let this put you off, The Barn was fabulous and a great base to visit in and around Pembrokeshire. We also drove up to Swansea and Cardiff as well as took in an overnight in Bath which was only 3 hours away.

I'll certainly be recommending this property to family and friends!

The barn was immaculate and we loved our stay! The bottle of wine and personalised wooden spoon for our anniversary was a lovely touch and meant alot.

The bonus of basic food and even an option my my dairy free wife showed they look after the smallest details.

Great safe space for the dogs to run about in too.

Good location for nature walks too.

What a wonderful experience. Bill and Dympna were excellent hosts and made sure that our every need was catered for, from booking to after our stay. The cottage was by far the best we have ever stayed in and the facilities were second to none. The cottage was very clean, and had everything you could wish for in a holiday let. We were met in arrival by our hosts, and were made to feel very welcome. Nothing was too much trouble and the cottage was beautiful. It was a lovely base to explore the wonderful Pembrokeshire coast and we will gladly stay again.

We stayed in the Barn which is for up to 5 people for our stay and was lucky enough to win this as part of a Xmas giveaway.

It has allocated parking, 2 bedrooms, large kitchen diner, living room and bathroom. There is also a landing room adjoining the rooms upstairs which has an extra bed and a desk.

The kitchen is fully equipped and includes a microwave, dishwasher and washing machine. There are plenty of crockery and cutlery. We also received a welcome pack which was a beautiful touch consisting of fresh bread, eggs, milk, honey and fruit cake. Recycling is encouraged and there are relevant bins for this.

In the living area, a smart TV is provided with access to Netflix and other streaming apps. My favourite feature was the log burner and there was enough wood and kindling available for our stay.

The bathroom was spotless and includes both a tub and shower cubicle. Towels are soft. I loved the little touches such as make up cleaning cloths and cotton buds.

The whole place was eco-friendly and noticed the use of refillable.

Both Dympna and Bill were amazing hosts and fantastic to work with. I would highly recommend this cottage.

I forgot to say, it's also pet friendly.

The photos on the website certainly lived up to seeing The Barn in real life. We were extremely tired after an almost 6 hour drive to Honeyborough, & couldn't wait to put the kettle on & start unwinding! We were shown how everything worked etc, and soon we were able to sit back & get over a journey that involved windscreen wipers the whole way! No need to unpack the tea etc, as everything is provided for the start of your holiday, simply everything has been though of. The welcome basket was a real treat, & the book with details where local places to explore were detailed, a real bonus. I would love to give 5 stars across the board, but as I was recovering from heart trouble, we only went out during the day, & I simply had to lay down each evening, as the tablets make me so lethargic - which left little room for my husband, who always then had the corner end of the corner settee, which made watching TV a bit difficult. If there were 4 adults (it sleeps 5) it might have been tight! Everywhere else in this lovely barn conversion was very roomy. The adjoining property had a small fenced in garden, which would have suited us more, seeing as we always holiday with our two dogs, it would be nice to sit outside knowing they were totally safe. All in all, a beautiful restored holiday home, in a beautiful area (nearby Marina had a lovely restaurant) as did Milford Haven Marina.

We are so delighted that you enjoyed the Barn; we take the point about the corner settee - it’s a tricky one due to the layout and shape of the room which is why we added the small sofa. We will definitely get you booked into the Coach House next time as there is a huge sofa in there with loads of space.

Great facilities.

The Barn is a super comfortable house that is exceptionally well equipped. Every last detail has been thought of.
It was spotlessly clean when we arrived with some thoughtful welcome gifts.
The hosts met us and explained everything.
Would definitely stay again.
Thank you

The Barn was clean, comfortable and well presented. Everything you need for a self catering holiday.
Bill and Dympna are excellent hosts, nothing too much trouble.
Excellent location for us as we were visiting family in the area.
Will definitely recommend to family and friends and will be visiting again.

My family and myself recently stayed in the barn and coach house for my brothers 40th and we were nothing but impressed with the cottages. They were both immaculately clean, provided everything we needed and more and the beds were so comfy. The barn in particular has a bigger kitchen and perfect for hosting. Dympna and Bill were so welcoming and explained everything to us when we arrived then left us to enjoy the remarkable stay. There were games provided, info leaflets for restaurants/bars and places to see and instructions for everything in the cottage in case we got stuck. I would highly recommend these cottages to anyone staying in the area. They were superb!

After a lovely trip bringing the New Year at The Barn, we returned for an Easter break. We were lucky enough to get the sunshine, so visited a number of Pembrokeshires beautiful beaches and restaurants- all recommended by our wonderful hosts Dympna and Bill. The Barn is beautifully decorated and has everything you could possibly need for a home from home stay - from a washing machine, baking equipment and a slow cooker to board games and toiletries. It has a real luxe feel inside and on both visits we have been incredibly impressed how super clean the property is. I finally wanted to give mention to how the hosts make sustainability a priority; offering recycling facilities and environmentally friendly products for use. We loved it and will no doubt return again soon.
Finally, we think the property is in a great location with lots of local attractions for families and couples. Highly recommended.
