Victorian Walled Garden. Stunning secluded property, 3/4 acre private garden

Welcome to the Bothy! Lesley has very recently transformed the old bee keeper's cottage and south facing greenhouse into a charming one bedroomed retreat in the heart of rural Pembrokeshire.

The Bothy is a stylish conversion nestled against the Victorian wall and beside the remnants of an old orangery. Wander through spring flowers, pick fruit in summer, listen to birdsong, star gaze or just relax on the South facing patio.

The Garden is in the heart of peaceful rural Pembrokeshire but less than 30 minutes from the stunning coastline. If you want to get away to tranquil surroundings but have access to historic sites and beautiful beaches this is the place for you.
The Bothy welcomes sociable dogs: we have three of our own who will visit! There are walks directly from the property and bedding for your pet is provided.

The garden was part of the historic Penty Parc Estate, the only one of three connected local estates still in private ownership and not open to the public. We are gradually restoring the garden but you will see an ancient yew and a border of hornbeams near your accommodation along with our more recent orchard area and fruit bushes. Our bees now live outside the South wall!

The Bothy has a bedroom, wet room, open plan lounge kitchen diner and a large sunny patio. Furniture, equipment, linens and decor are of a high standard with attention paid to the use of local materials in keeping with the surroundings. Outside there is an Alexander Rose Portofino patio set, an umbrella and a lounger for relaxing with birdsong or gazing at the starry night sky. There is ample parking. Locally prepared Dine@Home meals can be booked and delivered ready for the oven.

The property is centrally located with easy access to local beaches, the coastal path, Preseli hill walking, a riding stables, Scolton Manor, The Scolton Manor Spa, Lys Y Fran Country Park and sites of ancient settlement. There is a range of outdoor activities on offer and easy access to cafes, Haverfordwest and the small market town of Narbeth.

There is plenty to se: prehistoric sites, castles, dramatic geology, or simply step back and enjoy the peace!

The Bothy nestles against the North wall of this secluded 3 acre garden and offers guests privacy, rural walks and easy access to the stunning rugged north coast as well as the vast beaches and many attractions of Pembrokeshire.

Enjoy the comfort of modern living within this historic setting as you gaze at the 700 year old yew from your secluded garden Evenings provide stunning sunset skies to the west and with no light pollution, the opportunity for spectacular star gazing. If you want to retreat to the heart of the Pembrokeshire countryside, this is the place for you! Lesley offers a warm welcome, is at hand if necessary, but otherwise you can relax in your own peaceful space.

As a brand new listing this season, yet to welcome guests, there are no reviews for this property. However, you can read the experiences of guests who have stayed in the previously restored Old Boiler House which is located in a different part of the 3 acre garden. https://www.vrbo.com/en-gb/p8251842?uni_id=4308166

Beautiful property and amazing location
Stayed 12 nights in the Bothy… a beautifully restored property within an amazing walled garden with everything that we needed for our stay. The host Lesley couldn’t have been more welcoming and made us feel very at home along with our 2 dogs. It was great to chat about the history of the property and her information on places to visit was invaluable. Also lovely to make friends with her dogs who we loved having come to visit! The rural location gave us the peace and tranquility we were after but still only 25 minutes drive to the coast and 15 minutes to the nearest town. We will definately be back and cannot recommend the Bothy or Lesley highly enough!

Peaceful, beautiful and serene.
Another much needed break at this lovely walled garden. The property is extremely comfortable and is situated in a beautiful orchard now teeming with autumn colours and birds too numerous to count. The surrounding countryside is stunning locally and the dramatic coast just a short drive away. The owner is very helpful, recommending just the right trips to take during my short stay but returning to the peace and quiet of the garden is just perfect for my creativity. I am already looking forward to another break in springtime.

Hidden Gem in Tranquil setting
We just loved staying at the Bothy with our dog Peggy. Set in an amazing walled garden in the countryside, The Bothy is fully equipped and beautifully presented with lovely touches referencing its previous life as a Bee-keeper's store... and has a very comfortable bed! Lesley is a wonderful host and really made our stay very special. We look forward to returning again to see more of this amazing part of the world.

A piece of paradise
The cottage was just gorgeous - modern inside but steeped in history. I have never had such a relaxing time sitting over looking the beautiful garden. Lesley was the perfect host and made our stay really special. A truly amazing place and would recommend 100%.

Loved it, a secluded get away but near lots of places of interest and the coast
Very good accommodation in a beautiful 3 acre walled garden. I was encouraged to help myself to any ripe fruit, gooseberries blackcurrants and strawberries (very nice too). The bed was good, I slept liked a log, the furniture is very comfy. Nice sheltered patio with lovely furniture I enjoyed eating el fresco when the weather allowed. The owner Lesley was really nice, non intrusive. She not only came to tell me she was having a bonfire at the other end of the huge garden but invited me to join them for the event. The welcome basket was a lovely touch along with my first evenings dinner and saved me the bother of shopping for my first day, I used the dine at home service again on my last evening. They produce their own honey which I loved so bought some to bring home. I fully intend to return in the near future. Lots more to explore, the stunning Pembrokeshire coast is in easy reach and lots of historic buildings and country parks etc.

The Bothy is just perfect. Lesley and her 3 dogs are very friendly and nothing is a problem. Tranquility of the place definitely played a massive role in my writing (I am a writer). Will be definitely back very soon. The perfect peaceful retreat. Beautifuly furnished and absolute stunning outside space.

Beautiful cottage and a really nice location
This location has everything you need to unwind and explore the area. The cottage is beautiful, modern and very clean. The welcome by Lesley is warm along with her lovely dogs. The walled garden is really beautiful and there is a lot to discover in the garden. You can sit in the garden and enjoy the peace and quiet. The surrounding area also has a lot to offer. You are close to all the coasts of Pembrokeshire so you have plenty of space to explore the coastline and walk parts of the coastal path. This cottage is highly recommended for a stay in Pembrokeshire.
