Swallows was tastefully converted from a former farm building that is adjacent to our own home. It has oak woodwork throughout, is centrally heated, and is furnished and equipped to a high standard. It has three good-sized bedrooms, two upstairs sharing a bathroom and one downstairs with an en-suite shower room. There is a good-sized kitchen and large loung-diner downstairs, and it also benefits from a separate utility/wc.
We are less than 1.5 miles from the the unspoilt coastal village of Manorbier, with its lovely sheltered beach, 12th century castle, attractive church, villageshop/post office, garage, tea-room, hotel, and public house. The Pembrokeshire coastal path runs through the bay and provides some magnificent coastal walks. In addition numerous sandy beaches and the towns of Tenby and Pembroke are just a short drive away.
There is a bus stop at the top of the drive. Manorbier is served by a Railway Station.
Well behaved pets are welcome.

The properties are approached via a well-maintained gravel track some 400m in length. Slade is a non-working farm with most of the land left to rough pasture. The edges of the fields are regularly topped and can be safely walked around with or without dogs. The area in front of the cottage & outbuildings is maintained as lawn for the use of our guests. A garden seat provides the opportunity to enjoy the pleasant views down the valley. Swallows has an outside picnic table. BBQ and wind-breaks also provided.
Parking is within 10m of the property and cars can be parked temporarily for unloading immediately by the front door if necessary.
There is good reception for Orange & Vodafone users, variable for others.
