The Coach House is one of three beautiful holiday properties nestled above the tidal banks of the River Towy at Bronyn Farm, within the charming Carmarthenshire countryside and enjoys truly fantastic, open views across the river towards Llansteffan and the Carmarthen Bay. Located right next to the Wales Coast Path, this stunning semi-detached barn conversion offers amazing picture postcard views from the living room and from your very own Jacuzzi hot tub, which you can retire to after a day’s sightseeing, relax with a glass of wine and enjoy the sunset, views and the ever changing River Towy.
The Coach House has been sympathetically restored to showcase its character with a truly indulgent finish, boasting exposed stone walls, vaulted ceiling and wood burner in the living room with natural slate flooring. Each bedroom has been finished to a very high standard with quality touches to provide the perfect night’s sleep, and each features a en-suite shower room. The well-equipped kitchen is the perfect space to cook up a special meal and leads on to the dining and living room with access out onto the south-facing patio, which enjoys unobscured views across the River Towy and is quite a sun trap!
A 20-minute stroll brings you to the square of the seaside village of Ferryside, which was originally a ferry crossing on the Pilgrims Road to Llansteffan. Ferryside was once the heart of the Welsh cockling industry and still has a good number of locals harvesting these tasty shellfish. The village boasts a pub with local ales and live music, a small general store, a post office, a railway station and a fantastic beach to explore with your family, build sandcastles, explore rock pools or relax and take in the views.
A couple of miles over the hill, the ancient town of Kidwelly is really worth a visit with its historic castle, one of the finest preserved Norman castles in Wales. Travelling east along the coastline, Pembrey Country Park boasts 500 acres to discover and ramble, with its extensive woodland, dry ski slope, toboggan run and miles of golden sandy beach, ideal for all ages. Beach ½ mile. Shop, pub and restaurant 1½ miles.
The Coach House can be booked together with Wheelwright Barn (ref UKC3071) and Bronyn Cottage (ref UK11012) to accommodate up to 18 guests.

My husband & I stayed in the 2 bed cottage on the site last year with our toddler & loved it so much that we brought the family this year to the coach house! Another fabulous stay in Wales, the property is very well equipped with everything you need from beach towels to kitchen utensils, pots & pans to easily cook a meal for 6 people. Huge amount of space in general, even with a toddler who loves laying out floor puzzles! Beds are very comfy, we both have bad backs & but had no complaints. Great to have a shared laundry space, could easily do some 45 min washes & hang on a drier at property in the lovely garden! Towels could go in tumble dryer too. Great showers, clean & Keith & Lesley are just a message away. Instantly responding to me when a spot light had gone out over the mirror in one of the bathrooms, it was immediately replaced.Great location just under an hour from Tenby, 45 mins from folly farm, Manor Park safari & dinosaur park, all brilliant for children. We wanted to go back for the best Sunday roast dinner at The Ship aground in bury port as we went last year but they had unusually given the chef 2 Sundays off for a holiday the week we went- typical!Keith & Lesley are fantastic hosts & would highly recommend anyone wishing to have a relaxed, peaceful place with beautiful scenery with the added bonus of a hot tub which is spotlessly clean!

Absolutely wonderful holiday! The Coach House is a beautifully decorated home that is very well looked after, spotlessly clean, welcoming and cosy, with everything you would need from a holiday home and more. For example, towels for the hot tub, which the owners permit to be used at the beach, picnicware, and plastic containers to use outdoors. The view from the garden is stunning, exactly like the pictures, with complete privacy. The owners are an absolute gem! Nothing is too much trouble, and if you do encounter any issues or have any questions, they will be responded to immediately. You have the reassurance of knowing they are about, but you will only see them if you seek them out.The Coach House quickly became our favourite holiday destination as we love Pembrey Country Park and Carmarthen, and this home in Ferryside is incredibly close to both. Although you feel like you're in the middle of nowhere and can hear only wildlife and the occasional train, in less than 20 minutes you can be in the centre of Carmarthen town or entering Pembrey Country Park. On leaving Bronyn Farm, the owners kindly showed us around The Cottage, another home on their property, and we are hoping to try that one next year; either way, we will definitely return. Our youngest children have autism, and we find our best holidays are ones where we return to the same place, where our children feel they are at home away from home. We've found our South Wales home.
