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.

A lovely find and great attention to detail

Enjoyed a lovely stay for 4 nights but could have stayed longer. Dympna and Bill were great hosts giving us all the info we needed before arriving. They had thought of everything and more! From the welcome basket ,easter eggs to kitchen equipment and items in the bathroom.

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.

Good Afternoon Leanne We are so pleased that you had another great stay with us at the Barn. We love it when guests return for subsequent visits because it means that we are providing great accommodation for them and they are enjoying a well-deserved break, which is what we aim to do. We look forward to seeing you again in the future. Kind Regards, Dympna
