Spacious converted rural barn. Sea views, large grounds, family & pet friendly.

Swallow Barn is a home away from home, with everything you need to make your holiday relaxing, fun and memorable. The property was converted by the family in 2002 and since 2016 has been running as a successful holiday let. The family have been involved in holiday letting in this area for over 30 years so we have a team of highly experienced people in place to make sure that the property is maintained to high standards and guests are well looked after so they can enjoy a hassle free holiday. The property is private with landscaped grounds surrounded by pastures, but close enough to walk into the nearby village of Fishguard, the famous Pembrokeshire Coastal Path and local cycle way which is just at the end of the driveway. Although set back down a long driveway, there is some traffic noise from the A40. For dog owners, this is a paradise with a secure garden (for large/medium dogs) at the rear of the Cottage.

You can feel the happy energy of Swallow Barn when you walk through the door. It is a place for celebration and good times! There is plenty of space for everyone, inside and out, so you can be part of the activity or find a peaceful little nook all to yourself. The property is equipped to cater for big groups with a well stocked kitchen, huge farmhouse dining table, and outside areas for lazy lunches and late night dinners. There are plenty of comfy sofas to snuggle into, enough space for a game of outdoor cricket and an outside storage building for your bikes, kayaks, surfboard and other sporty paraphernalia.

There is an adjoining Cottage to the main residence which can be used as part of the main house (via a lockable door) or as separate accommodation with its own front and rear entrances, separate secure garden and parking area.

Swallow Barn is a place of character with lots of quirkiness; an artisan spiral staircase to the mezzanine, a hand mast cast iron balcony in the kitchen, a claw foot roll top bath, a pretty cushioned daybed, an outdoor terrace of local river pebbles, rustic Welsh slate kitchen bench tops, exposed timber beams and local stone interior walls. French windows open out from all the reception rooms onto the garden and the outside wrap around wooden deck with modern lounge furniture is perfect for entertaining, having a BBQ (provided) or sipping sunset cocktails.

The local area has an abundance of things to do. The Cycle Way is just at the end of the driveway and if you prefer to go on foot, it is only a short walk to the famous coastal path. There are surf beaches, pebbly pirate coves, ruined castles, historical sites and almost every type of sport available locally including one of Britains best surf beaches!

The local produce is wonderful! Pick your own mussels from the beaches or head to one of the local pubs to savour the famous Pembrokeshire crab and lobster dishes. Stroll around the local farmers markets at the weekend, grab a gourmet picnic and top notch coffee from the local deli or cook up local Welsh lamb on the BBQ. If high end gourmet dining is on your agenda, there are plenty of fabulous restaurants within driving distance.

During 2024 we have upgraded some of the facilities at the property for the comfort and enjoyment of our guests. There are 2 brand new bathrooms; one in the Cottage area with a fabulous bath and power shower combination and the other in the downstairs cloakroom with power shower. There is also a huge new velvet modular sofa unit in the main living space and 2 new Super King beds (one is a fabulous antique sleigh bed frame) in the 2 larger upstairs Barn bedrooms.

We love Swallow Barn and are so happy to be able to share the experience of staying there with you!
