Barn vacation rentals in South West Wales

We had a lovely few days at the Barn, using is as a base to explore the valleys, and sights in Carmarthenshire. The Barn is lovely and cosy - and actually feels bigger than it looks on the pictures. We loved the wood burning stove, with fuel provided and fire made the first night, which was a real treat to use - and if you are visiting at the right time of year, be sure to look outside at the stars in the dead of night, because we were able to see so much. The place would be easy to miss if you didn’t know where you were going, but we had very clear instructions beforehand and found it no trouble. To anyone wondering about the internet - some reviews here mention WiFi, but as advertised, there is no WiFi - which we actually enjoyed. If you need internet, mobile data doesn’t really work inside the barn, but was available as soon as one stepped outside, which was fine for our satnav purposes. Ann also offered to help us access the internet if there was an issue, but this wasn’t needed.

We were 5 adults and an 11 year old staying for 3 nights. The cottage was beautiful - rustic with everything you need. Alice and Louise were very accommodating and friendly. There was a power cut when we arrived but they let us have use of the camper oven for our potatoes. The surroundings are really beautiful. Loads of wildlife, swimming and fishing in river. Great walks.....would definitely stay there again!

Lovely place and great location. Photos don’t do it justice! Big garden and countryside all around. Felt so peaceful. Loved our stay, thank you.

The property was a beautiful peaceful location. Being a converted barn everything was on one level. Very contemporary and tastefully decorated throughout. Every eventuality has been catered for whether a short or long stay. Looking forward to returning when next in the area. Totally recommended.

From the moment we arrived we knew we had made the right choice. The location and view is fantastic, we felt so at peace. Internally the property is well equipped and of the highest standard and very clean throughout. The deck in the evening, glass of wine and just listening to the birdsong, so very peaceful. Lots of electric outlets so no need for extension leads and a dimmable lighting system thats like a 70s disco until you get the hang of it 😄. I cannor fault Jeannie, or the property, well worth the cost. Such a lovely place. Thank you Jeannie for making our 20th wedding anniversary one to remember. David and Julie.

Staying at Cae’r Beili in April was magical. Meryl was friendly and warm as she introduced us to the beautiful converted barn. The air was full of the sounds of sheep and their lambs with easy viewing from the lovely glass-enclosed sunroom. Looking out across the Carmarthenshire hills is a soothing experience and we enjoyed a long walk through the fields to the waterfall and back. The accommodations worked very well for our family (two children and four adults, one with limited mobility). If you want to experience the heart of rural Wales I highly recommend coming to Cae'r Beili - you may experience a little "hiraeth" after you return home.

A beautiful rustic retreat! I was blessed with beautiful warm spring weather matched only by the warmth and kindness of the hosts. The fridge was stocked with delicious local foods along with fresh eggs and homemade bread. Literally everything I needed and so much more. Christine and Mike are wonderful hosts, available but not intrusive. Pembrokeshire is truly a gem, beautiful trails and access to the Welsh Coastal Path, combined with picturesque harbors towering cliffs and rolling hills.

We had a great week at this lovely cottage in such a beautiful location. Fabulous view of the sea and within walking distance to the Pembrokeshire coastal path. Perfect for a relaxing get away but within easy reach of interesting places to visit. Ieuan and Sandra were great hosts and the wine and goodies they left for us were much appreciated. Would highly recommend this as an ideal base for anyone visiting Pembrokeshire.

Had a wonderful stay here on the farm, couldn't have asked for more! Trish was a fantastic, responsive and friendly host with lots of useful information about local points of interest! The old stables was so cozy, spotless and comfortable with everything we needed for a great weekend! It was so lovely to see, meet and feed the alpacas and goats on the farm. We had fresh eggs and milk provided as well as some treats and a beautiful welcome card! Would definitely recommend this location to anyone visiting the area and looking for a peaceful and unique stay!

This is a beautiful place to stay. It was even nicer than the photos with tea, sugar, Welsh cakes, good quality bed linen, plenty of toilet rolls and towels. It was comfortable and spotlessly clean. It rained non stop, but this gave us the excuse to cwtch down on the lovely sofas and read our books - bliss! The surroundings are wonderful - birdsong, rolling hills and a gorgeous cherry tree in full blossom outside the door. Ed was really receptive to our texts and gave clear instructions on how to get into the property. There is bags of room to park and check in was really easy. It was incredibly private and we felt like we’d gone to a special, quiet place of our own for three days. We heartily recommend it.

Highly recommend - an immaculately clean and well-presented cottage in a secluded spot made for a tranquil weekend. Great communication from booking through to leaving and restaurant recommendations were very much appreciated. We’ll definitely visit again.

We stayed one night and wish we’d stayed longer! Rebecca was amazing from booking—so kind, attentive, and thoughtful. The property was gorgeous and the cleanest place we’ve ever stayed. It felt like a home away from home, especially with the baby items provided. Our six-month-old even received a little toy, which she loved, and the children’s play nook was a lovely bonus. I arranged one of Rebecca’s Father’s Day hampers and she kindly included a card for my baby’s dad—such a thoughtful touch. We enjoyed prosecco in the hot tub after baby’s bedtime, and explored the beautiful local area and Weston-super-Mare beach. As new parents on our first trip away, all the care and extras made such a difference. We’ll definitely return!

Absolutely loved staying at Gemma’s place, beautiful decor, peaceful surroundings very tranquil and felt right at home. Loved the touch with the tea, milk and biscuits a must to set you up in the mornings prior to walking. Great information sent re all the walks! We did pen y fan and the four waterfalls! Not forgetting the pubs the ancient Britain and the red lion for brilliant food! Thanks so much!! Had a blast would highly recommend xx

We had a lovely calm and relaxed time at Shepherd’s Hut. It was very private and peaceful, seemingly miles from anywhere with no neighbours and only the sheep and wildlife for company (swallows, red kites, rabbits and a hare). The views were amazing and we loved the hot tub. The house had everything we needed and was bigger than we expected from the pictures. The bed and sofa were both nice and comfy. Hosts Rosie and Sandra were helpful and quick to respond when we contacted them. According to OS maps there are quite a lot of footpaths in the area but several of them seem to be overgrown or blocked off. However the local roads are quiet and pleasant to explore on foot with friendly sheep everywhere... The nearby towns of Rhayader, Llandrindod Wells and Knighton are all interesting and well worth a visit, as are the spectacular dams and reservoirs of the Elan and Claerwen Valleys We had a great time and were sad to leave

Lovely cottage, spotlessly clean and with lovely furnishings. Plenty to do on the doorstep, fantastic location. Will definitely come again!

Lovely cottage tucked away in quiet location Friendly and helpful host

We all had a truly wonderful stay at The Dairy in South Wales. The cottage is charming, beautifully kept, and perfectly nestled among rolling hills and countryside walks — an ideal spot to switch off and unwind from the demands of everyday life. The surroundings are peaceful and scenic, with plenty of walking trails right on the doorstep perfect for our 2 dogs what where with us!Whether you're after a gentle stroll or something more adventurous, the area is a dream for nature lovers. Our hosts were absolutely fantastic — warm, welcoming, and always on hand if needed, without being intrusive. You can tell they really care about making guests feel at home. Even giving us milk that we forgot to bring with us-! Lifesavers! If you're looking for a peaceful escape with stunning views, fresh air, and a real sense of calm, I can't recommend The Dairy enough. I left feeling rested, recharged, and already planning a return visit! Thank you so much guys, see you soon!

The cottage was extremely charming, cozy and comfortable. The farm itself was enchanting. The animals added a nice touch of spice. The entire area is breathtakingly gorgeous.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Salty Barn. It was spotlessly clean, lovely decor and fully equipped. We loved the access to the games room too. We will be recommending it for sure.

Lovely home. It feels like you are in the middle of nowhere, but you are 5 minutes from the motorway. All you can hear are birds and the river, so relaxing! The pool is definitely bigger than it looks in the pictures. We will definitely be going back!

We had an amazing stay at Ruth & Nicks lovely place, everything you need for a comfortable stay. Perfect for our few days away and in a beautiful location minutes from a fantastic beach. Ruth’s directions were great. Highly recommended, don’t book anywhere else!

What a fabulous location, like being on top of the world! Great hosts, helpful and friendly. Comfortable bed and excellent facilities, we loved our stay! Excellent value, we will return! Amazing location for exploring the area, sunsets and sunrises are spectacular! Thank you! 😊

Fantastic hosts , really helpful and responsive . Lots of information about the local area and things to do. House was very clean and comfortable, with everything you needed , beds and beddings was really cosy and we slept so well , we didn’t actually want to leave and stayed longer than originally booked. The views and local walks were beautiful too . The local pub was nice although we only had a drink there. Kitchen facilities were so good we cooked most the time. Highly recommend

Really lovely place and lovley scenery Nicely decorated and maintained Lots larger than we expected! You can really see the host really put efforts in maintaining the house rather than just do the bare minimum to rake in money
