“You get to the Old Tether Barn via an exciting drive along a twisty upward climbing narrow lane, open the gate and you are faced with a breath taking view.”

Old Tether Barn looks out on to the beautiful presili hills. The garden has a strategically placed patio with a table and chairs which catches the sun. Once inside the barn, the quality of decor is first class. A fully fitted kitchen, the bath room is lovey with a big roll top bath (big enough for two). The bed is comfortable and the bedroom has plenty of storage.

“My husband and I had a wonderful holiday in Pembrokeshire and the Old Tethered Barn helped make it more special.”

It is a delightful cottage which has been beautifully restored by it's owners.Sue and Rod who have thought of everything to make your stay at their cottage amazing. I loved sitting outside on the patio in the sunshine, reading a book and chose to eat my breakfast, on the twin bench looking out across the beautiful and peaceful countryside, not forgetting to say good morning to their adorable sheep ,who grazed in a nearby field. Although off the beaten track following Rod"s excellent directions you will not get lost. We very much recommend a stay at this wonderful cottage.
Mrs Fairweather August 2019

“This barn is set in a very rural and beautiful location.”

The barn itself is amazing, clean, comfortable and equipped with everything you could possibly need. I cannot recommend this place enough if you want a quiet getaway and/or a base to explore west wales. It’s stunning in itself and the surrounding area.
Mr Davies July 2019

“Absolutely great place had everything we required would definitely go again.”

Mr Orritt July 2019

“Wonderful location in a spectacular area of countryside, extremely well equipped property which was very comfortable.”

It far exceeded our expectations and is highly recommended.
Mr Lambert June 2019

“Sue & Rod from Old Tether Barn have created a very special & luxurious holiday cottage.”

The attention to detail is second to none & is very evident. We were amazed by the thought that's gone into every convenience - it made our week there a truly memorable one. Very Clean, neat & tidy & superbly organised. Located In a very rural setting, be prepared for sounds of a gurgling brook, plenty chirping bird species, sheep baa's & mooing cows. Absolutely loved it
Mrs Cooke May 2019

“If you want solitude and comfort the Old Tether Barn has it in bucket loads.”

This stunning accommodation wants for nothing, it has been prepared for visitors with the utmost care and attention both inside and outside. The views from the many seating areas in the garden are breathtaking, there are birds and bats in abundance, and a small resident group of rather snooty sheep! We have stayed in many cottages and the Old Tether Barn sits at the top of our favourites.
Mrs Harris May 2019

“If you are looking for peace and tranquillity look no further then Old Tether Barn.”

What a find ! This property has everything you need for a relaxing break. It is like home from home with everything you are going to need, we didn't want to leave. The property is so much bigger than the photos lead you to believe. So cosy with the log burner and beautiful blankets and fleeces dotted about in case of chilly evenings. The kitchen has every possible utensil you will ever need - and the bathroom WOW!- just beautiful with big roll top bath- candles, lovely shower. Spacious bedroom and slept like a log every night. Beautiful garden and complete privacy. If you are lucky enough to be able to sit outside in the evening as we were its like you are in your own little paradise. We were left wine, chocolates and fresh cut flowers along with milk in fridge and ice in the freezer which was appreciated. Would recommend this property without hesitation, definitely one of the best cottages we have stayed in and would like to thank Rod and Sue for making our holiday a special one.
Mrs Pole May 2019

“When you visit Old Tether Barn you find an idyllic spot off the beaten track where you can sit outside and enjoy peace and quiet whilst listening to the birds singing.”

You can see the love, care and attention to detail given to the decoration and furnishing of Old Tether Barn providing a very warm and welcome feeling as you pass through each room. Each room was equipped with everything you should need for a relaxing and stress free stay. Flowers placed in the windows provided a lovely touch and the welcome gifts a real treat. Old Tether Barn is one of the best properties we have stayed in.
Mr Betts May 2019

“An excellent cottage equipped with every possible amenity.”

The owners have thought of everything and even left us a box of chocolates and a bottle of wine! The cottage is ideally placed to explore the picturesque county of Pembrokeshire and visit the many tourist attractions.
Mrs Wilkinson April 2019

“Beautiful cottage in a tremendous tranquil spot.”

Everything has been thought of both inside and outside of the cottage. Would recommend this cottage to anyone who appreciates perfection.
Mr Eveson April 2019

“Absolutely beautiful cottage, but the thing that makes Old Tether Barn stand out from the (many) other cottages my wife and I have stayed at us the attention to detail shown by the owners.”

The cottage was immaculate, there was every possible type of utensil you could want available - and all genuinely clean - fresh flowers in the windows, complimentary toiletries available, extra logs for the fire which you could help yourself to (rather than having to ask). In short, this is the best holiday cottage we have ever used, and cannot recommend it highly enough.
Mr Guy April 2019

“The owners Rod and Sue were very welcoming.”

The cottage was lovely, beautifully presented with everything you could possibly need, even fresh flowers on the windowsills. Half an hour from the coast, and an excellent location on the edge of the Preseli Hills.
Mr Hall March 2019

“Beautiful Cottage in a rural location ...”

Beautiful Cottage in a rural location The owners have fitted it out to a very high standard They provided everything and more for their guests
Dr Turner December 2018

“The cottage was really spacious but cosy, with lovely decor and furniture.”

The kitchen had everything we needed and more (including a bag of ice and a cocktail shaker!), the hosts had clearly thought of all the little things a couple might want for a romantic week away in the Welsh hills. The location was also perfect, with beautiful views and friendly sheep surrounding us. We are fussy but have no hesitations in recommending this cottage.
Mr Mcgill December 2018

“Not particularly due to Sykes.”

But the owners were excellent: the old Tether Barn was very clean, very homely, well equipped, and the area free from light pollution. We had a very enjoyable, relaxing holiday.
Mrs Garrett November 2018

“The peace and quiet in a beautiful thoughtfully well equipped and furnished home from home.”

Knowing help was there if we needed it but very private to enjoy.
Mr Mcmanus November 2018

“This is a lovely cottage, finished to a very high standard in a wonderful, quiet location.”

Ideal walks on the nearby hills as you can start straight from the front door with no need to drive. We only had a short stay so we sent the owners several emails so that we could make the most of our time, they were very helpful and recommended a fantastic local pub where we enjoyed an excellent meal. We are already looking at dates to come back and spend longer at Old Tether Barn.
Mr Broad September 2018

“This cottage was truly amazing, so well equipped and clean.”

My wife and I have stayed in many lovely places, but this one easily tops them all. The peace and quiet was amazing, along with the stunning scenery. They say the camera can’t lie, but on this occasion the camera cannot do justice to this lovely property and its setting. We actually met the owner, what a very lovely person felt that we had known her for years. Amazing holiday.
Mr Brown August 2018

“The perfect holiday cottage.”

Everything you want & more. All the extra touches were perfect & so unexpected. The cottage inside & out was immaculate & the views were incredible. I can’t rate this cottage highly enough
Mr Ashgrove August 2018

“The cottage was as advertised and exceeded our expectations.”

It was really well presented, very well equipped; the owners had thought of everything. We arrived to wine, coffee, chocolate and even a pint of milk, which was a lovely gesture! Sue had also left extra toiletries in case we had forgotten anything. The owners live next door and are on hand if you need anything but leave you to your own devices if not. It's a stunning location, with a beautiful garden and you have all you need for a few days away or a week's holiday. Highly recommend.
Mrs Smith August 2018

“The cottage was beyond our expectations and so well equipped.”

It was a great base to visit all parts of Pembrokeshire and walk many segments of the coastal path.
Mrs Steen-knopper August 2018

“We love the cottage and the way it is decoratedwith so much love and care!”

We immediately felt ourselves at home. It was also the most complete cottage we ever hired: the owners thought of everything! Then the lovely garden with all the different seatings and wonderful views. It was a dream come true.
Mr De Coster July 2018

“It's a overcomplted holidayhouse.”

I gif it on a svale from zero to ten a fiftien. You will never find such a over completed house again.
Mr Judd July 2018

“Old Tether Barn is an exceptional cottage for two: roomy, well equipped and in a wonderful peaceful countryside location with loads of outside seating possibilities.”
Mr Jones June 2018

“Old Tether Barn is a beautiful, peaceful, well equipped cottage in an idyllic setting.”

The owners clearly take both time and trouble to make their cottage welcoming and comfortable for guests. It is a lovely base from which to tour the whole Pembrokeshire coast as well as the stunning countryside inland. We stayed for a delightful week and it is certainly our intention to return when we can. We are happy to recommend it most highly!
Mrs Bradley June 2018

“Home from home in a fantastic location away from the rat race.”

Everything caefully thought out inside and outside cottage.
Mrs Rigg June 2018

“Beautiful cottage clearly lovingly restored and cared for by the owners with everything you could possibly need-and more!”

We loved the area-fabulous walks, stunning scenery (when the clouds lifted!). We’ll certainly be looking to return to Old Tether Barn and would highly recommend it to others.
Miss Jones April 2018

“We would absolutely love to stay in this cottage again, next time we'll walk the Golden Road across the Preseli Hills.”

We visited many different places from this cottage, including the beautiful Poppit Sands and Dinas Head. The cottage exceeded our expectations, it is tremendously well equipped with everything you could possibly need. It is also spotlessly clean and the surrounding views are stunning. Thank you very much, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
Mr Newton April 2018

“Stunning location and very well equipped cottage, much bigger than it seemed from the pictures on the website, highly recommend staying here.”
Miss Smith March 2018

“Old Tether Barn was, by far, the most well equipped, spotlessly clean and comfortable cottage that we have stayed in.”

The location is stunning and the views on a clear day are wonderful. We wholeheartedly recommend Old Tether Barn - fabulous!!!
Mrs Dix March 2018

“The cottage is in an idyllic location, very peaceful and a great base to tour Pembrokeshire.”

Local amenities are nearby. The cottage is home from home well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Spotless and very tasteful decor. Would definitely recommend to anyone that likes peace and tranquility. Fabulous
Mr Botterell February 2018

“There was certainly nothing ‘old’ about this lovely cottage except the ‘old fashioned’ welcome of being treated to a home from home experience.”

Just everything was taken into consideration to ensure that we had one of the best of stays. Fresh flowers and chocolates to greet us on our arrival just added to the pleasure of this break. If this is the high standard that one should expect from Sykes Cottages then I have no hesitation in recommending everyone to check them out.
Mr Mcgill February 2018

“The Tether Barn was wonderful.”

Absolutely spotless & incredibly comfortable. The views were lovely &, because there was no light pollution, the sky at night enthralling.The owners were very kind & helpful and we had a wonderful week.
Mrs Murray February 2018

“This was a wonderful cottage spotlessly clean and had everything you need.”

We were made to feel welcome the minute we enterd the property. Wonderful little getaway would love to return.
Miss Dale December 2017

“We had a great time at Old Tether Barn.”

It was extremely comfortable and in a great location. The area and setting are beautiful and we really enjoyed getting away from it all for a week. And it was great coming back to the wood burning stove each evening. We also enjoyed meeting the 4 black sheep. The owners have done an amazing job in restoring this property with so much love and care and we are very grateful for everything they have done to get somewhere like this back into use after being in such a sorry state when they first took it on many years ago. Thanks again, Emma & David
Mr Hext December 2017

“This cottage could easily have been a two bedroom cottage but the owners have made a spacious one bed with extra snug rooms downstairs & upstairs plus in the outside grounds there are multiple seating areas.”

Lovely homely feel - well furnished, with quality ornaments, pictures - felt like a home not a rental. Exceptionally well stocked - particularly kitchen (cleaning products, pans, white goods) and lots of extras e.g. DVDs, books, games, toiletries, sewing kit.
bulimba July 2017

“Just Stunning..This Barn has been restored with so much Love and Respect..”

We just so loved our stay at Old Tether Barn..This Barn has been restored with so much love and respect..We have stayed at a number of places, over the years. Old Tether Barn, is the place that we have loved the most, of all.This was our last visit, as my husband in a War Veteran. This visit was just so important to us both. When you plan a holiday, from Australia, you just hope, that it as as good, as others say..We both just wanted to make Memories..and we have done that, at the Barn. It is very private, even though the main home is close. And that is a hard thing to do. I am a country girl, and my husband is a city person..So, to get the connection, for both people, I feel, is very hard to do. But, it is done, just so well. Loved he privacy of the Barn, and the garden..The wood burner, the little nooks and crannies, and the amazing loft..There are just lovely places, that gave places for both of us, to just enjoy..together of by ourselves..Shall I mention the sheep? And the big fat bumble bees, in the garden..When you arrive, this Barn just wraps it's arms around you, and you just never want to leave..We so wanted to bring it all back to Australia. Thank you both, as we feel that both of you, have been involved in this. And the balance is stunning..Thank you for allowing us to be apart of this wonderful place..
Adrian U November 2016

“Great cottage in a great location”

Overall we found the cottage to be very clean, well equipped with lovely touches on your arrival. Great for a relaxing break or as a base to explore from, also ideal for all seasons with the log fire and cosy set up. Really enjoyed our three night stay. Thanks to Roy & Sue. Ade Udale.

The property

Crymych 1.9 miles.

This beautiful detached dairy conversion is situated in one of the most picturesque locations within the National Park close to the village of Crymych in Pembrokeshire.

Situated in the shadow of the Iron Age hill fort of Foel Drygarn, Old Tethers Barn offers far reaching countryside views over surrounding farmland.

Retaining charm and character, you enter the cottage through the porch door where there is a space to leave your coats and boots after your outdoor walks and a utility/cloakroom with WC and basin.

Step up a small step into a delightful snug, with a slightly sloping floor, where a comfy sofa will be the ideal place to relax with a good book or maybe sit at the writing desk overlooking the open countryside to pen a postcard to friends and family.

A small step up from the snug brings you into the open plan living room which has apex beams and a woodburner for those cooler evenings.

Cook up special meals or prepare a picnic in the well-equipped kitchen to enjoy a choice of eating places.

One step up leads you into the ground floor bedroom and into the family bathroom, where a quick shower or a long relaxing soak in the claw foot bath beckons.

A complete stay here will refresh you, but don't miss the array of days out on the nearby coast with sandy beaches, the famous coast path and boat trips.

Alternatively, visit historic castles or walk on the Preseli Hills, before stepping back in time with a visit to the Shire Horse Centre.

Returning to such a perfect cottage to plan the next day out will be one of the pleasures of your stay in Wales.
