Beautifully Renovated Stable & Cart House | Peaceful West Wales Farm Stay


‘Y Cartws’ is a beautifully renovated former stable and cart house set on our family-run sheep and beef farm, Maesyfelin, in the heart of West Wales. Owned and cared for by Paul and Eirlys Williams, the farm has been in the family for seven generations, offering guests a truly authentic countryside experience.

Surrounded by acres of rolling green fields, Y Cartws is a peaceful rural retreat where you can relax, unwind, and enjoy the slower pace of farm life. Whether you’re exploring the stunning West Wales coastline or simply soaking in the tranquillity, it’s the perfect place to escape.

Guests are warmly welcomed to experience life on a working farm. If you visit during March and April, you may even catch the magic of lambing season – and perhaps help feed our orphan lambs (a favourite with visitors of all ages!).

As night falls, the lack of light pollution makes this an ideal spot for stargazing, with clear dark skies on fine evenings. For something a little different, guests are also welcome to fly drones from our fields and capture the beauty of the surrounding landscape.

Inside, the cottage blends character and comfort. The ground floor features a spacious farmhouse kitchen, a cosy living room, and a separate utility area. Upstairs you’ll find two comfortable bedrooms – one double and one twin – along with a modern shower room. A cot and additional single bed can also be provided if needed, making the cottage ideal for families.

Y Cartws is both family-friendly and pet-friendly, with plenty of outdoor space for children to enjoy. Guests are welcome to explore the fields (when livestock are not present) and make the most of the fresh country air.

Outside, there is a seating area with a table and bench, as well as a private spot just a short stroll from the cottage with table and chairs where you can relax and take in uninterrupted views across the surrounding farmland – the perfect place for a morning coffee or evening drink.

Additional amenities include:

* Free Wi-Fi throughout
* Oil central heating
* Towels provided
* High chair, cot, and stair gate available
* Ample parking
* Good mobile signal (EE network)

Really wonderful stay in a very comfortable home on a welcoming sheep farm in the west Wales countryside. Its deep in the country but its an easy drive to the Pembrokeshire beaches to the north, south and west. Its a stunning part of the world. We particularly liked Mwnt, St Davids Head and Marloes Sands. After a long day on the beach, it was always a pleasure to return to the farm.

Wonderful home away from home

Renting was a breeze. The property was delightful, with all the mod cons tucked into a warm and cozy home. The location was rural but an easy drive to activities. We loved the beautiful sites of the farm right outside the windows and their adorable dogs ready to greet us whenever we left. We would definitely rent this lovely property again!

Y-Cartwys is in a beautiful location, and is very comfortable, spacious and well equipped. The owners were very friendly and welcoming and even though the weather was a bit changeable we had a wonderful week exploring the coasts of both Pembrokeshire and Ceredigion as the cottage is so well placed. You could also easily access Carmarthenshire and other parts of Wales. Highly recommended.

Beautiful Scenery

We had a great stay at this fully equipped cottage. We had a lovely welcome by Eirlys and Paul, who were on site and around when needed, but never imposed. The beds and chairs were super comfortable and the dogs were cute and friendly. The area has great pubs,beaches and coastal walks all within a short drive. Would recommend to a friend. We are looking forward to booking next year. 😎🐶

A break away from the mayhem

This property is exceptionally well set up with everything you need for an enjoyable and peaceful setting. It is spacious and easily would accommodation a family of four. The location is so quite but you have beaches to die for within easy driving distance. The hosts were very welcoming and gave us some very useful tips. It was just what we needed after months of lockdown and uncertainty.

A beautiful place to unwind and enjoy the outdoors.

Thank you so much Eirlys and Paul. We thoroughly enjoyed our short break to the farm. With plenty of beautiful walks and beaches a short drive away; It felt like the much needed tonic, after a long winter. The children absolutely loved being on the farm. The cottage itself is extremely comfortable, with ample space for a family of four. The kitchen is well equipped and the personal touches were much appreciated.

A must stay.

If you want to experience rural Wales this place is amazing. A beautiful converted barn for you to stay in on a sheep farm with 3 working dogs who are so friendly and want tummy rubs. The hosts were helpful and delightful and it was a great base to explore what Wales has to offer and we were here for 10 days and only touched the tip of the iceberg. Stay here,switched your phone off and enjoy the scenery.

A perfect peaceful retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Perfect location with a beautiful surroundings. Well located, everything seemed just half an hour away. Stunning night sky, never seen anything like it. The cottage itself was perfect, cosy, well equipped and felt like home. Eirlys and Paul were there if you needed them otherwise you just carry on as usual, a friendly welcome or bara brith and fresh eggs. Our children made new friends in Mai, Ben and Bella the farm dogs, for children that aren’t too keen or used to dogs they absolutely loved these friendly pups. The surrounding town of Cardigan is amazing, the beaches of Mwnt and Poppit Sands are great beaches. Plenty of culture, history and wildlife nearby and amazing views just on the drive in to Cardigan. We all loved this place and would happily book again tomorrow. Thanks Simon, Aurore, Elora, Eliot and Aiden.

Relaxing getaway in fabulous family accommodation

Eirlys, Paul and their two sons were very kind and friendly hosts. Whilst we had some trouble finding the accommodation, Eirlys came to the rescue and there was no looking back. The barn, which has been converted into accommodation, is spacious and very well appointed. Apart from food and personal affects, everything that we needed was supplied. We particularly enjoyed the farm fresh eggs, milk and cake that was waiting for us when we arrived. The farm, Y-Cartws, is in a central location in the south. It was easy to visit the highlights of the Pembrokshire region. Eirlys gave us some good recommendations and a walking guide book that helped us to decide on our daily adventures. Another highlight was a little tour of the farm that enabled my nearly one year old son to see sheep and chickens for the first time. For those wishing to stay here, the easiest way to find it is to type "Y Cartws holiday cottage" into Google Maps, and it will direct you to the exact location. Thank you for having us, Eirlys and family!
