Description

A superb stone-built 16C Grade II listed wing of the owner’s home, Colby Lodge, in the village of Stepaside, close to Amroth beach and Narberth in the gorgeous area of Pembrokeshire.

Colby Lodge is set in National Trust woodland gardens, with over 2.5 acres of private gardens and surrounded by 1,000 acres of National Trust woodland.

Set in a beautiful and secluded location, the cottage, built in the 16 century, retains its original name Rhydlangoed, (The ford by the wood).

The main house was built later in 1803 by the coal merchant John Colby.

It is a wonderful place for either a romantic break or even a break with family or small group of friends for a good get together.

It’s a perfect location for artists with the beautiful gardens literally on the doorstep, a stimulating walk along the woodland path will take you straight to Amroth beach.

On entering the cottage, there is a small hallway with storage for boots and hanging space for coats.

This then leads you into the well-equipped kitchen with its’ own dining area, making it a great social space to enjoy whilst the chef is preparing a lovely home-cooked meal.

From here takes you into a cosy sitting room with comfy sofas and a log burner, making it a relaxing place for those cooler evenings.

The stairs take you up to two pretty bedrooms, both with character feature windows and wonderful views of the beautiful gardens.

A passageway takes you down to the spacious bathroom with a good-sized bath and shower; great for a nice soak after a full day out and about.

From the hallway, a back door leads to an enclosed cobbled courtyard, ideal for breakfast in the sunshine, to which the owner also has access.

At the front door of the property is a bistro set, perfect for catching the evening sun.

A pathway leads over a small bridge to a picnic bench in a private wooded area, exclusively for cottage guests.

Please exercise care over the bridge and the stream, especially when supervising children.

The gardens extend to a vast meadow; perfect for outdoor activities or walking.

Adjacent to the property are National Trust paths throughout the extensive woodlands and leading to Amroth beachfront.

Colby also has a National Trust walled garden with a gazebo and a water feature set in lovely gardens with statues and benches to enjoy the lovely scenery.

There is also a National Trust information centre, tea room and a gallery with a gift shop to visit.

The nearby coastline beckons too, or take a drive to Amroth, Saundersfoot or Tenby, with the option to enjoy some of the most picturesque coastal walks in the UK.

Theme parks, Oakwood, Bluestone, Folly Farm and the Dinosaur Park are all in easy reach, as are the Welsh Zoo, Heatherton, historic castles, seaside resorts and wonderful unspoilt coves are all there for you to explore.

Set in a fantastic setting, whether staying around the lodge and gardens or exploring further afield, Rhydlangoed is a wonderful and special place to be.

We had such a lovely stay here.

Caroline and Tony were great hosts, the property was big , quiet and comfortable and cozy (loved the log fire, beds were comfy), the location is fantastic and we enjoyed the amble down through the beautiful National trust grounds towards Amroth beach, and we enjoyed all the local walks. Thank you for a lovely week

Lovely clean, comfortable accommodation.

Everything you need in the kitchen. The hosts were very welcoming and happy to answer any questions and pass on tips to make our stay more enjoyable. Absolutely beautiful grounds and national trust gardens to explore. Short walk to a glorious beach at low tide. Thoroughly recommend the bothy tea rooms literally next door.

This trip was in the perfect location.

Amroth is beautiful, as is the pembrokshire coast. Lovely people. My only snag was the back garden area with white plastic furniture and a tatty yard wasnt appealing to sit in if you wanted privacy. Bathroom was in need of a update. But a beautiful kitchen. A good size property with amazing surrounding views and good pubs. Would definately visit this area again, stunning.
