NantwenPembrokeshire Sleeps 2

Always cherished now transformed, welcoming & much loved.

Nantwen, Pembrokeshire, luxurious retreat just for two

Unrecognisable from the old stables it was until recently Nantwen has been transformed into a cosy and comfortable home.

Evidence of the heart and soul of the owners is everywhere married beautifully with the building’s character.  A luxurious space for two with a stunning open plan living area focussed around the log burner but with your eye captivated by wonderful imaginative and traditional wood details.

Just 3 miles from the Pembrokeshire coast path on the edge of the Preseli Mountains this is a perfect haven for cosy winter breaks, a contemporary, stylish summer  bolthole for outdoor activity loving couples.

Things you need to know

  • Access to Nantwen is via a private farm track so can be a little muddy with a few pot-holes.
  • The cottage is one of two dwellings at the end of this track, the other being the residence of the owners’ parents.
  • Nantwen is a long way from the nearest street light.  If you arrive at night be sure to pack a torch if venturing out at night.
  • Nantwen is very environmentally friendly without any compromise of comfort for the guests. Heating and hot water are from a combination of solar panels and a Log boiler.
  • The bedroom relies on heat from the log burning stove in the living area and an electric heater (which is seldom used).
  • Rainwater is harvested and filtered for use in the house whilst waste water is returned to the woodland pond through a mini treatment works.

Nantwen Reviews

Nantwen  joined Sheepskin in December of 2011, so until now only a lucky few people have had the privilege of enjoying this place other than the owners, who enjoy the peace and tranquillity here when they have chance to escape the city.

I (Helen) have stayed there too and it is a wonderful, boutique, contemporary styled retreat with bags of character and attention to detail in the fascinating wood work.  Within minutes of arriving you just can’t help but feel at home and relaxed there.

Don’t take my word for it though book time away at Nantwen enjoy the Pembrokshire peace and read guest reviews…..


The property is delightful. I rented the cottage in order to propse to my girlfriend and it met my expectations in almost every way. The owners were there to greet us and were on hand whenever we needed anything but they left us to our own devises at other times and this was the perfect balance. The place was immaculately clean and was kitted out with everything you are likely to need on a long weekend away. Log burning stove, small library, TV, DVD player with an enormous selection of DVDs. Just the thing when it’s pouring with rain or on a dark winter’s evening. We really had an incredibly special weekend that I will never forget. Rad, Feb 2012.


From the moment we arrived we knew we were going to relax & really enjoy our stay.  Nantwen is one of the best places we’ve stayed for space, comfort, luxury & style – it was everything we could have wanted for a perfect romantic break.  Kev & Debbie, Feb 2012.
