LOVINGLY RESTORED PROPERTY, SITUATED IN AN ELEVATED POSITION WITH MAGNIFICENT VIEWS OF THE CAMBRIAN MOUNTAINS 2 Ensuite bedrooms. Bedroom 1 has a King Size Bed. Bedroom 2 has a zip and link bed which can be either a King Size or 2 Twin Beds. This barn conversion has been completed to a high standard and overlooks the Teifi valley to distant mountain ranges. Located in a in a beautiful rural, tranquil area of the countryside with no light pollution a wonderful place to unwind and recenter yourself. You will have access to the 14 acres of the small holding for walks, picnics or just watching the view change during the day. This is a working small holding with the owners living in another building on the land .They intermittently hold small creative art workshops in the adjoining barn to the holiday cottage . Periodically there will also be volunteers helping the owners on the land/buildings aiming to build the small holding into a sustainable environmental project. The ultimate aim is to supply local food projects like the food bank.
The property is based within a 19th Century barn and stable building, part of which is used as our craft workshops and studios.
The setting is very rural- which is a great opportunity to get away from it all but only 17 minutes to the coast. It's based on a peaceful 14-acre rewilding project which was previously an organic farm, alongside the traditional farmhouse and our artists' studios. There is a local pub/restaurant 5 minutes drive away that is open Thurs-Sunday. Booking is recommended in advance . The Hungry Ram. Penuwch. Despite the rural setting, you're less than a 20 mins drive from just about any amenity you could want, with several local towns nearby. From the quirky, alternative, university town of Lampeter to the lovely Welsh port, that is a hidden treasure, Aberaeron with great places to eat to the red kite centre in the lovely village of Tregaron all offering a range of facilities. Slightly further afield is Aberystwyth, where the nearest rail connection can be found. 15 mins driving gets you to the coast in Llanrhystud. 15 mins drive gets you to the Cambrian Mountains in Tregaron- the best of both worlds. The nearest pub, The Hungry Ram, is based a mile away- (a nice walk- which is slightly downhill on the way back!).
