About this property
The Stables - Tyn Cellar Barns
This is one of the oldest buildings on the farm and one of the prettiest with its red stone work thought to date back to the 1400’s .
The Stables is grade two listed, and graded 4 star visit Wales. The Stables has 2 bed rooms both with En-suite on the ground floor. One of the En-suites bathrooms has a fully accessible wet room for the less abled. The other bathroom has a shower WC and sink. Both bedrooms have a super king/twin bed and bunk bed in each . This is suitable for families or 4 single persons in each.
The rest of the ground floor has a large kitchen diner and spacious lounge with access to a patio area with views over the Margam hills. There is underfloor heating in the stables which is supplied by our Biomass boiler.
This stable block was used to house the farms shire horses (the tractors of their day) in individual stables, but during the renovation it was found that the stables were so badly riddled with wood worm most of the existing timber had to be disposed of. in the lounge you will notice that there is a plaque that is from the Glamorgan regiment for the 2 horses that the farm gave them to aid the war effort in the first World War in 1914.
This accommodation would be ideal for Groups i.e. Cyclists ,Walkers,Golfers and Large Families
Tyn Cellar Farm Cottages are Grade 4 listed by Visit Wales and the whole farm is Grade 2 listed and was once part of Margam Abbey dating back to the 1200s. We have a record of every tenant who has farmed here since 1536, the disillusionment of the Abbeys. Some of the properties were updated in the late 1800s and still retain some Victorian characteristics including the roof tiles.
All the cottages have underfloor heating, free wi-fi and fitted kitchens. All beds in the cottages are super king and can be split into singles if required. We also have a heated drying room for your wet kit and a secure storage area for your bikes and golf clubs.
We have a community hall on site that is used for weddings, christenings and other events, including regular yoga classes 2-3 times a week which guests are welcome to book in and join.
All our hot water and heating is supplied by our own green energy biomass boiler. All our rainwater from the roofs is harvested into a pond for the ducks and geese. We have a large car park on site. All guests are encouraged to assist with recycling all their waste.

Tyn Cellar Cottage, a 2 bedroom cottage which sleeps 4
The Dairy a 1 bedroom cottage with a superking and single bed, sleeps 3

About the host
Hosted by Host

We have been running the Barn B&B at Tyn Cellar Farm successfully since 2015 amd the cottages since 2017 . After a lot of hard work we converted the old farm buildings into holiday cottages, we managed to retain as much of the original and Victorian character as possible. We like our guests to have a lasting, memorable and comfortable experience staying with us.
