Y Beudy is a beautifully converted stone barn dating back to the 1850s. Once the milking parlour for Cwm Mwynant Farm, it lies across the courtyard from the owner’s own holiday home. It has been charmingly restored and renovated by Steiner Architect, Chris Day, retaining plenty of character and featuring his distinctive use of curved windows, space and light with exposed stone walls and wonderful solid wooden beams. Step into the open plan living space with its soaring ceiling, there is a newly fitted cottage-style kitchen area, dining table and comfortable seating, whilst the wood burning stove ensures a cosy feel even on the chilliest of evenings. The newly appointed shower room and twin bedroom lie off this with open tread stairs leading to a second galleried sitting area, the perfect spot to settle down with a good book. This leads through to the spacious double bedroom nestling in the eaves.
Enjoy the views out over Y Beudy’s private garden. A door leads out from the sitting room to the garden that wraps around the back of the cottage, a secluded spot with 5 slate steps to a paved terrace where you can dine alfesco. Lawns, mature trees, flowering shrubs and large pond, walkways and bridges are a delight to wander with hidden nooks where you can sit and just listen to the sounds of the birds and tinkling streams. A stunning space where you can recharge your batteries and just enjoy time in nature, a truly healing experience. Head down to the valley below via a footpath to the River Cleddau and take a riverside walk. Behind the cottage rise up the majestic rugged Preseli Hills, source of the bluestones used to build Stonehenge. Foot paths abound through the Preselis; the views are simply stunning and far reaching over the Pembrokeshire countryside to the coast.
There are a range of other short walks round the 10 acres of wooded grounds of Cwm Mwynant, meaning ‘Valley of the Little Stream’, which you are welcome to explore. Bird and wildlife enthusiasts will be enthralled. There is a super tennis court, and space to store your bikes, sea and beach equipment. With no light pollution the dark skies are sure to delight; wonder at the stars and Milky Way twinkling overhead on a clear night.
Set down a single track driveway, Y Beudy is conveniently situated in the heart of the Pembrokeshire countryside. You are equi-distant from the coast with the glorious Newport Sands and its bustling maritime town just 30 minutes to the north or head south to the popular Amroth, start of the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path.
There is a village shop 10 minutes away in Maenclochog for everyday supplies whilst 15 minutes away the market town of Narberth, with its range of facilities, antique markets, boutique shops and The Queens Hall, an arts and events centre showing films, live music and comedy, is rapidly acquiring a reputation for quality dining and good coffee shops.
To really enjoy a slower pace to life, arrive by train, as there is a choice of stations – Clunderwen or Narberth -within 15 minutes, then explore on foot or by bike.
Y Beudy is truly a special holiday cottage in a unique location where you can escape to, whatever the time of year and explore all that Pembrokeshire has to offer.
