Tresare barn is in a perfect location for easy reach of all the main beaches. Great views and very comfortable accommodation. The barn has been very thoughtfully furnished and has mostly everything needed for a perfect weeks stay.

The Tresare Barn was exceptionally well presented, immaculate and the owners were very friendly, responding immediately to any queries we had.

Overall the bungalow was of a high standard.and location was excellent.it was a lovely touch with a very nice welcome pack from the hosts. Our only criticism was the bed in the master bedroom was far to small and should really be replaced with a more modern Kingsize.

Fear not the "bracing shower" - I was worried it meant the room was cold, but i think it refers to the water pressure! It was good.

Good quiet position. Friendly reception. A working dairy farm with views of the sea in the distance. Although listed as accessible there are access issues for anyone with limited mobility.

Beautiful property in a very tranquil setting. Property was spotlessly clean and the kitchen well equipped. Stunning views and plenty of local walks. Loved watching the cows going out in the morning and returning in the afternoon.

We had a great time in this well equiped and well located place. The whole family were very welcoming and minor problems with the heating were sorted very quickly. They obviously take great care to ensure that visitors have an enjoyable holiday, although they can't control the weather. We saw many rainbows, even doubles. We would heartily recommendRead more Tresare barn and trust that you will enjoy your time there as much as we did. Ask about Jemima Nicholas, the last Invasion of Britain, and tapestry. Hide

We loved the location, the peace, the views, and despite being very close to the farmhouse we never felt overlooked. Really enjoyed chatting to the owners and meeting their lovely spaniel! Watching the daily routine of the cattle was also a really enjoyable aspect of the stay!

Tresare Barn is in a beautiful location with sea views and a walk to a lovely cove in under 35 minutes. The property was very clean and spacious. The kitchen is well equipped and has loads of cupboard space. It's far enough off the beaten track to be very quiet but close enough to a main road for easy access to St. David's and the coast.

A truly wonderful sunny week spent at Tresare Barn. Loved the welcome basket of goodies. It is very spacious, bright, clean and well equipped. Has great views over the fields to the sea and lots of lovely coastal walks. Nice to watch the cows leave the shed in the morning and back. Had really lovely chats with Kate and her family.
