Hayloft

About this property

Narberth 2.6 miles. Hayloft is a characterful cottage resting near Narberth in Pembrokeshire. Boasting countryside views, sociable open-plan living and an excellent selection of child-friendly facilities, this welcoming retreat is well suited to families looking to discover Pembrokeshire together. Pull into the gated off-road parking, where paid EV charging is available, before making your way upstairs and into the hallway to begin your stay. Head into the open-plan living space and take in the views across the surrounding countryside, then sink into the sofa or armchair for a well-earned rest. Framed artwork inspired by Pembrokeshire brings a local touch to the interior, while the Smart TV is ready for laid-back evenings together; there is also a selection of books, DVDs and games for when you fancy swapping screen time for some friendly competition.

When appetites call, move across to the kitchen and prepare your chosen dish using the electric oven and hob, with wooden worktops providing space for preparation, while the microwave, fridge with ice box and dishwasher make family self-catering that little bit simpler. Put the kettle on for a morning brew or make use of the Nespresso machine before gathering at the dining table for four to discuss the day ahead. When it is time to turn in, the stylish and spacious double bedroom provides an inviting retreat for adults, complete with a mid-century-style bed, dressing table and storage for unpacking your belongings.

Younger guests can claim the second bedroom beneath the roof eaves, where a single bed and smaller bunk-style bed create a characterful sleeping space. Families travelling with younger children are particularly well considered here, with items including wooden cots, blackout blinds, bottle sterilisers, changing mats, baby baths, a blender and bed guards available to help lighten the packing list. Come morning, freshen up in the family bathroom, where a plywood feature and tiled floor add character, before choosing between a soak in the bath or a refreshing shower over. WiFi is also available throughout your stay. Outside, make the most of the communal garden, settling at a picnic table overlooking the fields for an alfresco meal or barbecue while younger guests enjoy the play area and swingball.

Family fun can continue in the communal barn, home to ceiling heaters, bench seating, another play area and a large map for inspiring the next adventure, while garden and beach games are available to borrow. After days spent cycling, walking or exploring the coast, leave bicycles in the secure bike storage, hang wetsuits and outerwear to dry, rinse muddy boots or sandy beach equipment in the sink, or make use of the free-to-use washer/dryers in the communal laundry. When you fancy heading out, a pub is just over a mile away, while the nearest shop is a short drive from your base.

A sought-after and picturesque village at the head of Mylor Creek that runs up from the Carrick Roads, the World’s third largest deep water harbour. Boats and sailing, wooded creeks, softly gliding water, riverside pubs and fabulous gardens epitomise the area. This friendly village has a superb selection of local shops (try the fresh fish!), a Post Office, a good pub and several restaurants within easy reach. The nearby harbour town of Falmouth with its exciting Maritime Museum and its castle, beaches and marina makes a great day out while the Cathedral city of Truro famous for its cobbled streets, theatre, museums and vibrant shopping centre should not be missed. Take the car, or a boat from Falmouth, for a trip up the stunningly beautiful Helford River and while there, call in at Glendurgan and Trebah Gardens for the horticultural treat of the year. The area is perfectly placed too for exploring the rugged cliffs, sandy coves and fishing villages of the Lizard Peninsula, also The Eden Project and Lost Gardens of Heligan are both within an hour’s drive.
