Immerse yourself in the magnificence of this stunning former farmhouse of Fountain Hill Farm which is set on its own in the ‘picture-postcard’ Pembrokeshire countryside. It has fabulous views of the Preseli Hills, while a tributary of the River Nevern meanders at the bottom of the orchard. This grand farmhouse is teeming with character and offers a very high level of comfort throughout, with solid oak floors, beams and an original inglenook fireplace, which really do complement this property. A natural stone porch opens into a large reception area which features a wood burner set in a Welsh stone inglenook fireplace with a slate hearth, and oak stairs to the first floor. A dining room adds to the character and charm, with exposed stonework and a bespoke dining table. Here you can enjoy formal dining with family and friends, or maybe enjoy a barbecue al fresco on the patio, where there are uninterrupted views over the beautiful Preseli Hills, or just relax in your private hot tub. In the evening, you can retire to one of the two living rooms complete with a cosy wood burner - this property really does offer everything for that perfect getaway. The large master suite offers fantastic views, with even your very own observatory making the most of the magnificent views here at Fountain Hill.
Positioned at the foothills of the Preseli Hills, it lies close to the quaint hamlet of Eglwyswrw, and is conveniently on the doorstep of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, which offers fantastic walks through the hills and on the coastal paths, as well as horse riding, fishing on the Rivers Teifi and Nevern, and even sea fishing and wildlife spotting. There is also golf within 8 miles, as well as kayaking nearby. The historic market town of Cardigan is only a 15-minute drive away, and nearby are a host of beautiful beaches such as Poppit and Newport Sands or Cwm-Yr-Eglwys and Pwllgwaelod. This rugged and sublime Pembrokeshire coastline really is worth a visit. The historic market town of Cardigan has a bustling high street featuring the famous Cardigan Castle, many antique and craft shops, together with an abundance of restaurants and cafés. Travelling south, you can discover the famous walled town of Tenby with its award-winning beach, or take a trip to Caldey Island or Oakwood (Wales’ largest theme park) or the award-winning Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo, all of which will make the perfect day out.

Absolutely beautiful home. Everything you need included in a large, very well equipped kitchen. The bedrooms are great, the downstairs one is smaller than upstairs but still very comfortable. The living and dining areas are spacious and very comfortable. My favourite part of the house is the fabulous conservatory. The views over the countryside are amazing and the garden is very spacious for children to play in and ample seating outside provided you are lucky and have good weather. There is a stream at the very bottom of the garden that the older children had great fun in. The owner had kindly left Easter treats for the children which made the stay even more welcoming, It is a way out and be prepared to feel quite remote, but that was part of the experience for us. Fabulous restaurant /pub not too far away called the Salutation Inn, great food and great service with a lovely welcome.

We stayed at Fountain Hill for a week. Our party was multi-generational from ages 15 to 87! Everyone absolutely loved this house and the location. It is such a beautiful setting and the house is immaculate and very comfortable. Plenty of space and so clean. It's probably the best holiday home we've ever stayed in, and stands as a perfect example of how to get it right. Highly recommend (if you can find an available date!)
