A lovingly converted eco barn overlooking a wildflower valley in arty Pembs. For honeymoons and mini moons... a slice of heaven!

Solar panels, biomass boiler, wood-burner, Welsh wool... You're as snug as a bug and surrounded by wildlife, yet only five minutes from Newport. Down a pot-holed track on a hillside, overlooking the lush valley, is this big lovely bolthole for two. Jemma (jeweller) and Daniel (cellist) have happily returned to the family home to raise their young family and are full of exciting plans, e.g. vintage weddings and civil ceremonies in the barn. (Don't worry: all self-catered stays are wedding-free!). The setting is idyllic and the garden has a view-filled terrace, raised beds and a beautiful wildflower meadow. Inside are two levels of heated wood floors (sanded planks up, new oak down) linked by a small curving stair. The open-plan sitting/dining/kitchen space is downstairs, the shower room too. Discover Europe's smallest city, St Davids, or explore friendly little Newport. You can walk to the pub.

Local points of interest from Daniel & Jemma:

Punti d'interesse locali da
Daniel & Jemma:

A luxurious space for two in a quiet setting. A home from home built by local craftsmen. Breathtaking wooden features and real attention to detail.
We are within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. Walk from the door in meadows and ancient woodland, or enjoy the vibrant nearby village of Newport with its independent shops and galleries; pause for a delicious meal in one of the five restaurants.
It's just 5 mins to the gorgeous Pembrokeshire coast for beautiful beaches and walking the coastal path. Also close by are: Pentre Ifan Burial Chamber and Castel Henllys iron-age village, or amble through the ancient woodlands of Tycanol and Pengelli.
Bake in the well-equipped kitchen or prepare a romantic evening meal to enjoy around the rustic table before curling up with a book or watch a DVD from a vast selection in the snug. Neal's Yard products to enjoy in our deep claw-foot bath.
If you are an amateur musician and are looking for a course for yourself or with friends then visit our website for information about our string instrument or chamber music courses. You can get married here too! Nantwen is licensed for civil ceremonies.
Take a boat ride to Skomer, visit Narberth for antiques, independent shops and cafes, or the UK's smallest city, St Davids; watch the dolphins in Cardigan Bay.

"My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay. It is a wonderful bolt hole nestled in the idyllic Welsh countryside. A delicious welcome pack was provided and everything was just as you might want. A perfect weekend of walks, red wine and lazing on the sofa - if you need to get away from the grind and fancy shutting off from the world for a while then this is the place (although we did catch up on a box set when it was raining - thank you Netflix)."

Dominic - Middleham, United Kingdom

"Nantwen is stunning and perfect for exploring the beautiful Pembrokeshire Coast. The barn is stylish, beautiful and very much loved and looked after by Daniel and Gemma. Equipped with everything you could need, cosy and comfortable. Couldn't recommend highly enough."

"We were made to feel so welcome at Nantwen-Jemma's home made bread is legendary, and the welcome pack including local butter and milk was much appreciated! The cottage is as idyllic as it sounds-a luxuriously comfortable, tranquil hideaway, created with great vision and thought-so many lovely details respecting traditional methods and materials, but with a contemporary feel. Although secluded, it is very close to the magnificent coast, with superb walks possible in all directions-lots of helpful ideas and suggestions for visits are provided by the knowledgeable owners. Lovely! "
