About this property
Yr Hen Llaethdy
Welcome to The Old Dairy! This beautifully converted barn offers a luxurious countryside escape, set on a working livestock farm just three miles from the charming market town of Newcastle Emlyn in South Wales. Surrounded by rolling fields and rural tranquillity, this high-quality holiday home is ideal for couples or families looking to relax and explore.
Inside, the property is thoughtfully finished with solid oak furnishings and cozy underfloor heating throughout. The light-filled sitting area features a welcoming wood-burning stove, creating the perfect space to unwind after a day exploring. An open archway leads through to the stylish, well-equipped kitchen and dining area, ideal for cooking and enjoying meals together.
While the property is arranged on the ground floor, there are two internal steps leading to the spacious bedrooms - one zip and link super-king bed (2 singles can be made up upon request) and a king room. Guests have access to an extra single bed which they can request at the time of booking. As you walk through, take a moment to admire the beautiful stained glass window in the passageway, showcasing Welsh daffodils and a cow — a charming nod to the farm surroundings.
The property also offers a large utility room and a lovely bathroom complete with a luxurious whirlpool bath for a truly relaxing soak.
Step outside to your covered private patio, where you can enjoy alfresco dining, unwind in the glorious hot tub and swing while soaking in the peaceful countryside views. Guests are welcome to experience the working farm, where you'll often spot some sheep, cattle and maybe some calves!
There's plenty to explore nearby, whether you fancy walking or cycling through scenic trails, discovering the historic market town of Newcastle Emlyn, enjoying the stunning coastlines of Carmarthenshire, Cardigan Bay, and Pembrokeshire, or even taking a nostalgic ride on a steam railway.
This exceptional countryside retreat combines comfort, character, and the perfect location for discovering the best of South Wales.
