  • "We enjoyed our stay, and felt thoroughly at home."

    The Barn is well laid out, kitchen well-equipped and convenient, and the living room beautifully furnished--and with lovely comfortable sofas .. Very comfortable beds too, and great bathroom and shower! The setting feels secluded, and the uninterrupted view over the valley spectacular . We enjoyed the presence in the field of turkeys, llamas, donkeys ,white peacocks-- and a racehorse. The owner , Marina, couldn't have been kinder and went out of her way to make sure we settled in--she is a warm and generous host.

    Thank you so very much for your kind comments.We look forward to welcoming you back Property Owner

  • "An amazing Holiday cottage, situated on a working farm."

    Perched on the top of the mountain above Cumfelinfach, with fantastic views over the valley and clear views across the Bristol Channel. Dawn and Martin are amazing host, with nothing too much trouble. The farm has a mix of animals that the children loved. Sheep, lambs, cattle, alpacas, horses and 7 friendly dogs. An absolute must for children. The Barn is comfortable, well furnished and has everything you require to make your holiday a pleasure. A well fitted kitchen, with cooking facilities, fridge/freezer and fantastic views across the valley. Although slightly isolated on top of the mountain, it's only a short drive to the main roads and shopping facilities. The isolated position is a bonus with peace and fresh air. Highly recommended for a peaceful getaway. Dawn is an amazing host and a Saint with the work she does. We will certainly be going back to the barn for our future stays in South Wales.

    Thank you very much for your wonderful comments on your stay.and for taking care of my lovely cottage leaving it as you found it.The pleasure was all ours to host to such a lovely family we hope to see you again soon Once again thank you ☺️ Property Owner

  • "The cottage is beautiful, modern farmhouse style."

    The rooms are great size and the house was so cozy, especially for visiting in November. The waterbed in the main bedroom was very comfortable and warm with the heated option. My son loved seeing all the animals in the field in front of the property. The views around the house were amazing, looking right down the valley. A couple of tweaks would make this property 5 out of 5; oven gloves and an additional oven shelf as there was only one in the kitchen, basic essentials such as salt, pepper and oil in the kitchen. There was a lot of dust in the house and unfortunately we found dog dirt embedded in the rug in the living room, which had been there for a long time. The shower ran incredibly hot! We notified the owner who looked at it and it cooled it slightly but it was still a lot hotter than is comfortable and had to bathe my toddler in the bath to prevent any potential burns. Please note, there is also no WI-FI at the property even though it was listed in the property details.

    We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay with us and thank you so much for looking after our lovely cottage and leaving it as you found it. We look forward to welcoming you back. Dawn & Martin Property Owner

The property

Pontywaun 3 miles.

Nestled on a working farm in the rural village of Cwmfelinfach in Caerphilly County, a peaceful setting just a short drive from nearby Pontywaun, rests this charming, three-bedroom holiday home, Penrhiwarwydd Barn.

Boasting gorgeous, farm views, well-presented interiors, and a handful of charming, on-site amenities, this delightful property is a great choice for families or sharing friends who are seeking a tranquil, fuss-free escape to the heart of the Welsh countryside.

As you step into your new lodgings, be greeted by a variety of tastefully-thought out interiors, including a fully-equipped kitchen where the designated chefs will find all they require to conjure up a delicious, home-cooked meal, to be savoured at the dining table or even whilst perched on the sofa in the sitting room as you watch a film or two on the wall-mounted TV.

When the sun is shining, take a glass of your favourite tipple out into the garden, where you can fire up the barbecue to enjoy an alfresco dining experience as you soak in views of the surrounding pastures where sheep and alpacas graze freely.

As day rolls into night, you and your loved ones can relax and marvel at the endless, star-filled vistas overhead, before you retreat for a well-earned slumber in one of three, plush bedrooms.

If you can tear yourself away from your new dwelling, take time to explore what the local area has to offer.

Embark on a scenic stroll around the idyllic greenspaces of Waunfawr Park or Cwmcarn Forest, before settling down for a well-deserved pub lunch at The Philanthropic Inn in Pontywaun.

Make the short car journey to the nearby city of Newport, set on the banks of the River Usk, where you can find and enjoy the grounds of Belle Vue Park, the serene Allt-Yr-Yn Nature Reserve, as well as the Newport Museum and Art Gallery for when you want to brush up on some local culture.

Cardiff is also accessible by car and is home to a wealth of exciting things to do and see.

Your trip to this part of the world would be incomplete without venturing into the Brecon Beacons National Park, a magnificent region housing the National Showcaves Centre for Wales, the National Trust landmark of Pont ar Daf, and the stunning area of Corn Du.

Enjoy all of this and more by booking a stay at Penrhiwarwydd Barn.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £300.
