Description

The Long Barn is a traditional stone barn situated on an organic farm, with stunning views over the Teifi Valley. Come and explore this unspoilt and undiscovered part of Wales. There are many footpaths in the area and quiet lanes for walking or cycling. We also have canoeing and climbing/abseiling nearby. The Ceredigion Coast and the Cambrian Mountains are both an easy drive away.

On the ground floor you enter through a lobby where boots and coats can be left. There are two toilets and two showers for both gents and ladies. There is also a drying room with a washing machine and tumble drier.
You will then enter a lounge with sofas and a wood-burning stove. There is also a pool table. At the end of the ground floor there is a dining room/kitchen. There is another wood-burning stove and everything you need for self-catering.
The bedrooms are on the first floor in 3 different rooms, one with 15, one with 14 and one with 2 beds (mainly bunk-beds).
