Guests consistently praise 'The Barn at Waunlippa' for its welcoming hosts, cleanliness, and tranquil setting.

The cottage's comfort and the thoughtful touches provided by the hosts contribute to a highly recommended and memorable stay.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviewers frequently mention the exceptional cleanliness of the property, describing it as 'spotlessly clean' and 'immaculate', indicating a very high standard of cleanliness.

The location is highly praised for its peacefulness and proximity to local attractions, beaches, and the town of Narberth. Guests appreciate the easy access to Pembrokeshire's coast and countryside.

Numerous guests describe the cottage as comfortable, cosy, and well-appointed, with special mentions of a comfortable bed and a cosy fire, suggesting a high level of comfort.

Facilities like the hot tub are frequently appreciated, though one mention of intermittent hot tub issues slightly lowers the score. The availability of chef-prepared meals and cooking classes adds to the positive feedback on facilities.

While many reviews express gratitude for the hosts' hospitality and the enjoyable extras like chef-prepared meals, there is no specific mention of gifts, so it is not possible to score thoughtfulness based on this criterion.

    Peaceful environment, perfect way to unwind from our busy lives. The Barn had everything we needed. Narberh up the road where we rambled around and experienced a take away. The Boars head In templeton is a must. Out host created a magnificent home made two course meal at the Barn. Definitely worth a stay

    Thank you for the lovely meal.

  • Marianne

    Despite the very rainy weather, our break was relaxing and just what was needed. Orsola is a fantastic host and couldn’t be more welcoming. We would thoroughly recommend booking some dinners in with Orsola - a wonderful treat! The hot tub was a lovely treat which made up for the bad weather! The fire kept the barn very warm and cosy and made our stay really special. The grounds are beautiful and we would love to come back in the summer months to enjoy these in the drier weather. Totally recommend for a relaxing getaway.
