Nestled in the heart of the village of Manorbier, the property has a large private garden, contained within the grounds of the Old Vicarage. Set back from the road down a private driveway, just a short walk from Manorbier beach and the coastal path.
Built in 1815 and originally housing the carriages and horses as stables to The Old Vicarage, with stone quarried locally and taken to be dressed by the monks of Caldey Island.
Five bedrooms; three upstairs and two downstairs in a separate wing, ideal for two groups coming together or a family wanting plenty of space. The downstairs bedrooms and bathroom are perfect for those who would prefer not to use stairs. We have focused on creating spaces which all the guests can enjoy together, and capturing a relaxed coastal feel.
Manorbier, described by the Guardian as "The Perfect Seaside Village", has everything you need: a well stocked shop, post office, great pub, tea rooms, Norman castle and church, 4 beaches within walking distance, fantastic surf, rock pools, and of course a large stretch of sand for those just wishing to sunbathe. Tenby, with its famed Georgian architecture, beautiful beaches and Wales' oldest golf course, is just 7 minutes drive east. A short drive to the west you will find Bosherston lily ponds, Broadhaven and Barafundle...and much more.
We aim to make your holiday as relaxing as possible. Would you like a catered meal delivered one evening? Or a box of local organic vegetables? We have a barbecue which is ideal for those summer evenings.
We cater for all ages - we have a travel cot and two high chairs, plus a stair gate. We also have elephant feet so sofas can be raised up, a grab rail in the downstairs shower and a shower stool. The cottage is ideal for those with mobility issues as there are two bedrooms and bathrooms downstairs, and access onto the garden from the sitting room and bedroom too.
We live next door so we are on hand if you need anything.
Guests love the garden as it is south west facing (the sunsets are spectacular) and spacious enough for children and dogs to run around - don't forget to bring your croquet set and badminton net which plenty of our regular guests like to bring on holiday with them.
There is parking outside for three cars. The local shop is less than 2 minutes walk away and they are very well stocked, also it is possible to organise a delivery with your usual supermarket. The local pub has live music and quiz nights, plus great food and a sunny beer garden (or cosy up by the log burner inside in the winter). There is also a take away service and the local hotel has fine dining with views over the bay.
Unfortunately guests are prohibited from using a domestic socket for charging their electric vehicles due to insurance, however there is a charging point within walking distance - at the beach car park, or at the Giraldus Hall.
