The Space:

Best of both worlds — countryside and coast:

A 25–40 minute drive brings you to the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park — Newgale, Broad Haven, Barafundle, Tenby and the Coastal Path. Spend the day at the beach, then come home to absolute peace.



Guest Access:

You have the entire house and all 8 acres of grounds for the duration of your stay. The two attic rooms are normally reserved for the owners but can be opened up on request when you need to flex to 19 sleepers. Private on-site parking for 8+ cars; private lane for overflow.



The Neighborhood:

You're in the quiet folds of inland Pembrokeshire, near the village of Clarbeston Road - a peaceful cluster of farms, woods and country lanes between the Preseli Hills to the north and the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park to the south. It's the part of the county that locals keep for themselves: properly rural, mostly birdsong and big skies, with everything you need a short drive away.



What's on the doorstep

- The Preseli Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, rise just to the north — bluestone country, where the stones at Stonehenge were quarried. Walks from car-park to summit (Foel Cwmcerwyn, Carn Ingli, Carn Menyn) take 1–3 hours

- Llys-y-frân Reservoir & Country Park — 15 minutes by car. Lakeside trails, paddleboarding, a café and play area; lovely for a slower day

- A handful of excellent country pubs within 10–15 minutes — try The Cross Inn (Clarbeston), The Wolfe Inn (Wolfscastle) and The Salutation Inn (Felindre Farchog) for proper Welsh food and a fire in winter



The towns (15–25 minutes by car)

- Haverfordwest — Pembrokeshire's county town: a Tesco, Morrisons, M&S Foodhall, a Riverside shopping centre, restaurants, the medieval castle ruins

- Narberth — boutique-y market town beloved for delis, indie shops, the Queens Hall and Ultracomida

- Fishguard — pretty harbour town, ferry to Ireland, the famous Lower Town setting

- Cardigan — gateway to north Pembrokeshire and Ceredigion's coast



The coast (25–40 minutes by car) - Whilst you're not on top of the beach, you can choose a different one every day!

- Newgale — a vast 2-mile sweep, brilliant for surf, kites, dog walks

- Broad Haven & Little Haven — golden sands, rockpools, a great pub at Little Haven

- Barafundle Bay — regularly voted one of the UK's best beaches; a short walk in from Stackpole

- Freshwater West — wild, cinematic (filmed for Harry Potter and Robin Hood)

- Tenby — pastel-painted Georgian harbour town, four beaches, ice creams, harbour boats to Caldey Island

- St Davids — Britain's smallest city, the cathedral, Whitesands beach, boat trips to Ramsey Island for seals and porpoises

- The Pembrokeshire Coast Path — 186 miles of national-trail clifftop walking; pick any access point along the coast



For families & groups:

- Folly Farm (15 min) — zoo, vintage funfair and farm; reliably brilliant with kids

- Heatherton World of Activities (25 min) — go-karting, archery, paintball, golf

- Bluestone National Park Resort (20 min) — Blue Lagoon waterpark day passes available



A note on the setting

Penty Parc sits down a private lane on 8 acres of its own — lawns, orchard, summer meadow and a tranquil pond. There are no immediate neighbours, no through-traffic, and after dark you're under some of the darkest skies in Wales. Bring a torch for the walk to the firepit, and look up.



Getting Around:

A car is essential for exploring the wonderful Pembrokeshire countryside and coast.

There is on-site parking by the house for at least 5+ cars, with additional space available if required. The property is accessed via a private lane, making arrival and departure easy for larger groups.



Other Things to Note:

If needed, there is an additional king bedroom and single room in the attic area, offering extra flexibility for larger groups.



There is parking for at least eight cars on site. The private lane leading to the property can also be used for additional parking if required.



Please note that electric vehicle charging is not available at the property. For safety and to protect the home’s electrical system, charging vehicles using household outlets is not permitted.



There are public EV charging stations available in nearby towns around Clarbeston Road, and guests are encouraged to use these during their stay. We’re happy to point you in the right direction if needed.
