The Barn at Waunlippa

Just home from a beautiful, relaxing and romantic 5 day stay at the Barn near Narbeth. The Barn at Waunlippa had everything needed , from romantic log fires, in idyllic settings, to bubbles relaxing in the hot tub, topped off with a professionally cooked and served two course meal, designed, created and lovingly made by Orsola. Patrick and Orsola are the perfect host! Friendly, approachable, accommodating and adopting the correct balance for us to enjoy time alone in a peaceful and gorgeous setting. The kitchen is well equipped to be completely self catering. The shower was hot and powerful. The bed was very comfortable, we both slept well. This area I was most concerned about as I am very fussy about mattress and pillows, but no complaints here. Underfloor heating. Thermostat available to set your own room temperature both on the living area and the bedroom, but in all honesty the log burner was all that was needed for cosy days-nights in. The grounds were picturesque and very peaceful. We have Come away so so relaxed!

Patrick and Orsola are fantastic hosts, they were around for anything we needed but let us have our own space for the week. Property was nice and warm the whole time thanks to underfloor heating and thermostat controls, but also provided us with plenty of logs and kindling for the wood burner too. Phone reception is patchy, but there is WiFi available for WhatsApp and WiFi-calling so I think the previous review is utter bunk. Do not trust the 1-star hater: our stay was bliss. An added bonus - Orsola is a superb chef, and cooked us a bespoke meal for our anniversary. It was DELICIOUS!

Lovely quiet location. Dog friendly. Helpful and pleasant host. We spent 4 days and thus was the perfect base for exploring the coastline. The bathroom could do with a little tlc and I wish we'd tried the hot tub but the weather was rubbish - really wet and windy!!
