A cosy cottage in a beautiful setting. Near to gorgeous beaches, a lovely pub and the owners have thought of everything.

Thank you Sarah. It was a pleasure to have you stay. Thank you for taking the time to write this glowing reveiw. Hopefully you will return someday. Take care.
I absolutely loved the cottage, it was so full of character and charm. It was very peaceful and private and had everything we needed, wished I’d booked a longer break there. I’ll definitely try and return there some time soon.

Thank you so much Thomas. So pleased you enjoyed your stay.
Property is ideally located for exploring Pembrokeshire coast. Tranquil location and barn has a rustic charm. Plenty of games and books for rainy days and good outside space for BBQ. Very close to Freshwater West beach with good surfing.

We had a great time staying in Paul’s barn conversion. It is such a cute property with everything you could want in a holiday home. So close to so many fun activities - surfing, castles, puffins on Skomer Island - we saw it all! Thank you Paul - we hope to be back! :)

Bangeston Barn is down a little Lane - very tranquil , private and in the heart of the countryside - Brilliant for walks with the dogs - Freshwater west is only 5 mins by car and is a great beach .

Thank you for your kind review. It is very quiet down the track as you suggest. All beaches within 10miles are dog friendly all year round. Doggie heaven ;) Paul
We adored this charming cottage. The house was so lovely. It was so charming. My kids adored the loft. And the backyard was perfect for keeping them entertained when we weren't exposing the beautiful beaches nearby. The kitchen had everything you could possibly desire. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Great cottage. Key tricky to find in the dark!! No toilet rolls- not sure if that was omission by mistake. Everything else fab!!

Hi Ann apologies for late reply. Glad you had great time. Yes we normally supply some toilet paper so this must have been an oversight. It is dark down there at night, I will have a think of how I could make the key access easier. Take
care. Paul
What a wonderfully clever barn conversion! A twenty minute walk to Angle West beach and a mile and a half walk to Freshwater West beach. Our dogs loved the walks, as well, and all the local beaches dog friendly.
The barn is well equipped for a family stay and if the weather does turn there are enough games and toys to keep the kids entertained for days, even the big ones! I loved finding the guitar and it was still in tune!
Thanks for being a great host, Paul.

Property exactly as listed, we decided not to take advantage of the Wi-Fi (to much), and didn’t switch the TV on once. We did enjoy the tranquility of the location, and the fact that everything we needed for our walking, coastal, beach orientated break was within a 15 minute drive away. I promised he dogs a different beach every day. Man, what beaches they are!
I’d do it all again in a heartbeat. Very happy.

Cute and quirky barn where time traveller comes free
I rented this barn conversion for a holiday with my 3 kids and my parents. The property is full of character which added to the nice feel of the place. The barn is tucked away at the end of a county lane and the location made us all feel like we had left our busy lives well behind us and stepped back in time. The kids played in the garden and explored the surrounding area which seemed remote enough that we didn’t need to worry about traffic so they could be free. It’s close to amazing dog friendly beaches (Fresh water and west angle) and the town of Pembroke. We had a great time in the unexpected Welsh sunshine. Paul and his wife our hosts were clearly lovely people which again made us feel welcome and relaxed from the start. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to friends and family.

Thank you so much for your kind words. It was really lovely to meet you and your family. You would be most welcome to return anytime. They say sun shines on the righteous. Take care Paul
Bangeston Barn is utter heaven! A beautiful character property with all the mod cons needed. We were lucky enough to meet the owners Paul & Naomi when we arrived. They are lovely friendly people who have put their heart & soul into Bangeston. The Angle area which is within the Pembrokeshire Coastal National Park is wild & beautiful. It feels remote but you're only about 30 mins from Pembroke with it's lovely castle and river walk & Pembroke Dock for getting food supplies etc. The barn is within walking distance to dog friendly beaches & coves which our three hounds loved! If you want a peaceful break away from the madness of 2020 then you've found it! We will certainly be heading back to Bangeston as soon as we can! Thank you for the best week ever.😍🐾😍

We had a wonderful summer stay at Bangeston Barn. It was the perfect downshift after five nights in London during our kids' first trip to the UK. The beautiful scenery made us feel right at home coming from Seattle, WA, USA. As a fellow DIY-er, I so admire Paul's excellent handiwork in making the barn a truly special vacation rental. We were lucky enough to bump into Paul and his family and I'm sure we could have compared notes and visited all day had time allowed. I joked that the only negative part of our trip is that now we have to buy a woodfire pizza oven when we get home because we enjoyed using Paul's pizza oven so much. The location is splendid--we did quick convenient trips to Freshwater West Beach (visiting the "grave" of Dobby the Elf), the Green Bridge of Wales, St. Govain's Chapel, Stackpole/Barafundle Bay, Pembroke Castle, and West Angle Beach (for multiple tea stops at Wavecrest). My morning run each morning was north through beautiful Bangeston Wood up and out to the Angle Lifeboat Station. And we stopped next door at the produce stand from the Angle Walled Garden for new potatoes and flowers. All aspects of the residence itself are creatively designed and executed. I can only imagine how cozy and wonderful the barn would feel for a winter visit--I noted many entries in the guestbook describing great Christmas stays. We would love to return in the fullness of time. Thank you, Paul!

Das Haus ist mit so viel Liebe zum Detail ausgestattet. Man kommt an und fühlt sich zu Hause. Es ist sehr gemütlich und sehr sauber. Es gibt viele Möglichkeiten Kleidung aufzuhängen, im Bad gibt es ausreichend viele Haken für die Handtücher. Die Küche hat wirklich alles was man benötigt und vieles mehr. Wir haben 4 sehr schöne Tage in diesem Haus verbracht. Vielen lieben Dank für alles, Paul.

After a tough year it was glorious to escape to this gem of a little barn. It is well equipped & mindfully thought out. We slept like logs in the super comfy bed having walked & explored the stunning coastline. Highly recommended.

I really appreciate you taking time to review Bangeston Barn. We hope you come back and enjoy the tranquil location and leave some waves for me ;)
Take care.
This is a wonderful spot. The design of the barn is fantastic; warm and cosy with underfloor heating, triple glazing and a wood-burner; lovely design with perfectly matching exposed wood, whitewashed walls and stone; every kitchen implement you could imagine, so many games, puzzles & books - it felt we were being challenged to try to find a fault - we couldn't! The front and back gardens (sun in morning, then afternoon) with tables and seating provided; the quiet country location, but close to West Angle Bay and Freshwater West; Also walkable to the pub in Angle... just lovely.
On top of that, Paul was super responsive with communication and provided a very comprehensive welcome book with all sorts of hints and tips (like asking for veg boxes from the neighbour, which we did).
This is an extremely thoughtfully offered cottage - hugely recommended!

Hi Andrew and Andreia
What a wonderful and thoughtful review. Thank you so much. It is so rewarding to find all the little things we obsess about have been noticed. Do come and visit the barn again or bring some friends and stay at the Bangeston farmhouse next door. Glad the veg boxes were a hit. Tom and Lara grow the best veg, cherries, asparagus, eggs and more, with a total food mileage of about 0.1 mile ;)
Take care.

We had a fantastic week staying in this beautiful part of Wales. The property was full of character and thought in the way it has been renovated and laid out. Really fun charming space and practical aswell with everything you could need. Amazing beaches all around from 5 to 20 min drive away. Loved it.

Living in a city makes you appreciate the Outdoors especially after lockdown and Bangeston barn was a gem of a place to stay clean and tidy it’s like the Tardis inside the coastal path starts down the lane and the stunning Freshwater west beach not much further but it was the peace and quiet made our stay a treat

Tony It was pleasure to meet you. Please come back any time. Though not sure the mackerel or bass would be so keen ! Thank you for your review
We are a family of four (and very old dog) living in Bristol where we spend most weekends mountain biking in Leigh Woods when not visiting Pembrokeshire.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with this part of Pembrokeshire after spending many years holidaying here. We stumbled upon Bangeston in a state or disrepair and decided to embark on an eco refit.
What makes this property unique
We enjoy the fantastic beaches, wildlife and the countryside that this area offers and love relaxing, surfing and just being on the beach building sandcastles or exploring rockpools. Many can be deserted even in the height of summer and Freshwater West is world class in all respects. We think we have created a special place with its traditional wobbly walls and old fashioned slate floors but with the comforts of underfloor heating.
