"A Gem in the Welsh Countryside".

The perfect place to relax with stunning views, a cosy wood burner just 20 minute drive from Cardiff.

A new Barn conversion set in a large paddock with unrestricted views over open countryside to the Bristol Channel in the distance and North Devon coastline and hills beyond.

"The Gallop's" is situated along a country lane where the only traffic is likely to be the racehorses on their daily exercise from the adjacent racing stables, yet has easy access to major roads.

The perfect place to relax in comfort in beautiful accommodation furnished and equipped to a high standard in a contemporary style maintaining some of the original exposed beams.

The two story spacious, 3 bedroomed detached stone barn, will sleep up to 7 people with 2 more possibly accommodated on the sofa bed downstairs.

The open plan ground floor includes a kitchen, dining and living area with a wood burner and full central heating, a separate utility room and a separate toilet.

There is secure storage for bikes or sporting equipment and the barn is children and dog friendly.

The picturesque village of Llancarfan and the Fox and Hounds Pub is one and a half miles away.

GUEST REVIEW

My wife and I (and our 2 dogs) stayed here for our wedding anniversary. We wanted to get away and totally relax and that is what we got at the Gallup's! Property is finished to a high standard and is very clean. The paddock was great for our dogs and our morning yoga. Lots of peace and quiet and the horses in the neighbouring field would come and say hello each day. Jane was a great host and was there if needed but did not intrude at all. Her home made Welsh cakes were a nice touch. We plan to return in the future! Highly recommended.
