About this property

Loved for Its Tranquility, exclusivity. Central location. Hot tub.

Hayguard Barn is a traditional stone built barn, constructed of old red sandstone which is a special feature of old local Pembrokeshire barns. It was converted back in the late 90s from a calves-cott and barley store loft .Offering spacious accommodation for 6+2 (2 at an extra cost). It occupies a beautiful private setting overlooking the pond and is naturally separated from the working part of the farm.The barn overlooks the pond with an array of wildlife. A spacious upside down house. The bedrooms and bathrooms are downstairs and upstairs is open plan living. Its uniqueness includes hand made ceramic tiles and pieces inspired by the sea, which can be seen around every corner of the barn. Including coiled and slab built sinks and light fittings made on site. It is designed to make maximum use of the light and space.
Wifi super fibre broadband. Its been said that it is nearly as fast as is what people get in their Cities. eg. London, Cardiff.
This farm, close to the wonderful Pembrokeshire beaches and the old port town of Milford Haven, has been in the family for generations. And it is the family who make it special. It is off the A4076 main road, which makes it an easy drive from the A40 of Haverfordwest, or the A477 from Pembroke Dock which takes you over the Cleddau bridge with the spectacular views of the Cleddau estuary and the ports of both Pembroke Dock where you might catch a glimpse of the Irish Ferry on its journey to and from Rosslare, Ireland, and Milford Haven.
When you arrive you will see the lawns and farmyard garden flow into the rich vegetation around the large pond with it’s water lilies and Irises. Around this area you may be greeted by our very friendly dogs Rodney, Madge, Mavis and Mostin. But if are unsure about them, we can put them away.
Check in at the farmhouse, then wander past the hens, and the waddling ducks, into your home for your holiday.
Just below your holiday home, just opposite the pond, you will see the Pond Studio, once a working farm workshop, which was once filled with old vintage tractors such as Nuffield and Fordson. Then it was transformed into a ceramic studio, where all the pieces you will see inside the barn were produced. There are still some there, some finished, some unfinished, but sadly none are for sale.
Today it's a Music, Games studio. One side, is a electric organ and piano, which can be used, but only under strict supervision with very young children.
The other side of the studio is a multi games table, which can be transformed from a Pool Table, to an Air Hockey Table and a Table Tennis Table, very popular with all ages, and perfect for those wet summer days or for those days when you would rather just relax in the barn .
On the wall is a TV which is connected to Sky Freesat, Bluray player, Surround sound system and a Nintendo Wii.
Below the TV, you will see an array of games for the wii and DVDs for all ages to watch and play.
Outside the barn is a hot tub. Introduced in 2021. a 6 seater cotswold eco, which is heated completely from fire wood. It is full of water ready for your use, you just need to heat it. Takes 2 hours to heat from cold, and hour to heat on consecutive nights. There is a charge of £10 per back of 12kg for the wood. This amount should be enough to heat at the beginning. Half of the amount should be enough when the water is lukewarm. It can be lit on your arrival, but most want o lit it themselves to get the full experience, but the kindling is already there to lit.
We charge for the wood for its use, as it is not included in the nightly rate, as not everyone wishes to use it.

About the host

Hosted by Alison Thomas

Host profile image
Hayguard Hay Barn is located in Ford Farm, which has been in the family for generations. We live in the traditional longhouse farmhouse which is set on a large farmyard surrounded by traditional lime washed barns with the distinctive Pembrokeshire red doors and windows. Around 30 years ago this farm was producing early Pembrokeshire potatoes, turkeys and milk to the nearby towns and communities. Today it is farmed and grows arable crops and offers grazing for dairy and beef cattle. for a nearby farmer, who also has a farm shop, with fresh pasteurised full cream milk, eggs and vegetables. Very popular with local families. We'll supply the glass bottle for the milk.

Why they chose this property

Hayguard Barn is the only holiday letting on site, and we as host are prepared to give you a very special holiday experience here in Pembrokeshire.
The red sandstone barn is big, light and upside-down, with the vaulted, open-plan living area gazing out over fields and farmhouse and buildings. Oak floors, local slate, a wood-burner and colourful unique ceramics give it a natural, warm feel.
The Bedrooms downstairs, are simple spaces of white plaster and colourful covers – but mostly you'll be upstairs or out on the lawn with the birds.
Here is what one previous guest said...
"Phil and Alison are wonderful and extremely warm hosts, the barn is a beautiful property and the farm a marvellous playground for adults and children alike. The location is perfect for a whole host of Pembrokeshire's finest sandy beaches: we loved Whitesands and Freshwater West."

What makes this property unique

There is nothing better than getting up to the early sunrise through the bedroom windows, turning the ducks out of their shed and watch them fly over towards the pond, then turning the chickens out to the lawn and watch them compete to catch the early worms with the blue tits and robins. Away from the peaceful farm yard there are an array of things to do. Coastal walking, windsurfing, sailing, coastal botany, golf, castle viewing, watching the bird life on Skomer Island, boat trips, coastal swimming, gallery viewing, and a plethora of arts and crafts in Pembrokeshire
