About this property

Spacious, Quality, Pet Friendly Barn Conversion. In lovely rural setting.

Set in it's own 12 acres of grounds and pasture land, and surrounded by many more, Ffynnonddewi is made up of a traditional Pembrokeshire farmhouse and adjoining, converted barn and milking parlour, making it perfect for a multi-generational get together or if some of the party just need some space away from the group.

Furnished with lovely comfy beds, with Egyptian cotton linen and traditional Welsh throws, cushions and fluffy towels, you will feel right at home.

But that's where tradition ends, the kitchens are fitted with the latest modern appliances and gadgets and the house is served with superfast broadband and wifi which is also connected to the 4k ultra HD TV with freeview play and a Chromecast HD so you can stream your own media directly from your phone, tablet or laptop and whilst we do not have a cable or satellite package you can easily stream your own Sky or Virgin media Go package directly onto the fully internet connected TV.

Together with it's sister cottage, Ffynnonddewi Farmhouse (8768856), next door which sleeps 6, it can be rented together as Ffynnonddewi (8526926)and makes a perfect secluded base for 15 to share holidays, celebrations, adventures, escapes or just to rest and relax.

A perfect secluded base for holidays, celebrations, adventures, escapes or just to rest and relax.
Summers at Ffynnonddewi are all about fun and freedom, beaches, surfing and adventure activities as well as the great outdoors, or quiet walks along the Coastal Path.
You will be spoilt for choice with many of Pembrokeshire's best beaches close by, with the fantastic Newgale being just 5 minutes away.
The coast path and nearest beach is within walking distance from the house.

Winters are all about getting together with friends and family for celebrations and parties and snuggling down in front of a roaring log fire, and having no near neighbours you can really let your hair down.
The property underwent a complete refurbishment and conversion back in 2005 and recently underwent a full programme of further upgrades to an even higher standard.

Amazing property
The house was beautiful, very spacious, the best equipped I’ve stayed at for a large group. We had lots of lovely family meals and games and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. The weather was not on our side but thanks to the lovely house we were very happy. Gareth and Luci were helpful from start to finish and whilst we did not have any issues at all, I’d be confident that they would help immediately had that been so. The house and hosts were so welcoming , the information supplied was helpful and there were no endless rules to follow. Can not fault and highly recommend.

Lovely, secluded stay
The property was beautifully renovated to a very high standard and was extremely clean. Please note that amenities such as the cot and high chair need to be specifically requested in advance as they are not stored in the rental. Gareth very quickly brought the items over, but it would have been useful to know that in advance. The provision of black out shades was very useful for a young family. Communication with Gareth and Luci was excellent and they responded to any concern very promptly. Perfect location for a large family to escape!

Family Holiday
There were eight of us overall, eldest daughter, daughter and her husband with their daughter, grandson and his fiancee. We found the property is perfect for a large family holiday. If a larger group of us wanted to go on holiday together there is also the farm house next door which means with the accommodation there (for five) and the nine in the barn a family of 14 fits in easily. Gareth and Luci are extremely helpful, welcoming and hard working, nothing is too much bother for them.

Best ever holiday. !
Having an absolutely fantastic time here and it’s March! Terrific weather lovely and sunny every day, and what has made this holiday is the superb accommodation. All the rooms are beautifully designed and finished to a really high standard, and the kitchen has everything you could possibly need. A stones throw from Solva and only five minutes from St Davids there hasn’t been a single dull moment, and if your feeling more adventurous the Lilly ponds at Bosherston are well worth the drive, absolutely stunning. Gareth and Luci have done an amazing job on these cottages, and I could happily recommend this place if your looking for top quality’s accommodation and a relaxing break.

Very Spacious & Clean with good inventory
Gareth (the owner) very friendly & welcoming without being intrusive. He invited us to stay an extra night (foc) due to inclement weather for travelling. Excellent area for dog walking. We've already booked for next year.

Perfect!
The property was everything we hoped for from the description and more. Our host was great and nothing was too much trouble. We felt very at home and our dogs were made very welcome. The cottage is spacious and has been done to a high standard, it is exceedingly well equipped and great attention has been given to detail, which made our stay very comfortable. Come rain or shine, this is a lovely place to stay and a great base for exploring the beautiful beaches and the area. We're planning to revisit next year. Thank you Gareth and Luci, for your hospitality.

Spacious, clean, and very well equipped property
We had a lovely stay at Ty Dewi. The property was very clean and well equipped. There was plenty of room throughout and the internet was great. Gareth introduced himself and was very helpful. If we needed him, he was there, but he was not at all intrusive and gave us total privacy throughout the trip. Would definitely recommend, great place and great host.

About the host

Hosted by Gareth and Luci Chapman

Host profile image
We are Gareth, Luci and Lola, the dog.
We moved from Oxford where Gareth ran his own building company and Luci worked in events.
We moved here looking for an easier pace of life, in a part Wales we loved, and knew well, having holidayed here for many years.
After searching for a few years we fell in love with Fynnonddewi and it's lovely rural location the moment we saw it and just knew it was the place for us.

We have only been here since November 2017, and are constantly upgrading to make your stay even more special.
We are always on hand to help whether it be issues with the cottage or information about the local area, and look forward to welcoming you to this lovely part of Pembrokeshire.

If your dates are not available please do contact us by following the "ask owner a question" link, we may still be able to help.
We very much look forward to hearing from you and welcome any questions about the property.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with natural beauty of North Pembrokeshire and the variety of things to do. There are peaceful walks, along the coast path or the Preseli Hills, or for the more active, coasteering, sea kayaking, or surfing.
There are beaches galore, many of which allow dogs or have a dog friendly area.
The choice is yours whether it's building sandcastles or exploring rockpools and many can be deserted even in the height of summer.
There is wildlife all around whether it be seals, dolphins or those at the Folly Farm zoo.
Pembrokeshire is a birdwatchers paradise with the islands of Skomer and Skokholm being some of the most important seabird breeding sites in Europe.
We have our own share of wildlife on site too with foxes, badgers and rabbits. Autumn and winter sees large flocks of ducks on our pond, along with large flocks of lapwings in the neighbouring fields, buzzards and red kite are often seen overhead and barn, tawny and little owls hunt alongside bats at night.

What makes this property unique

We are set in rural surroundings just a couple of minutes from Solva, surrounded by 12 acres of our own land and many more beyond that. We are directly about 1.5 miles from the coast which is easily accessible via a footpath direct from the property.
The nearest road is several hundred yards away so there is no need to worry about children and traffic.

Activities can also be arranged either at the property or elsewhere or we can provide a team of caterers, should the chef of the group fancy a night off.

We also offer a discount for whole weeks booked outside of the school holidays, which is automatically applied on checkout.
