The Old Cow Shed

Nestled on a 200-acre former dairy farm, Tanylan Farm is a unique and scenic holiday destination situated between the Gower Peninsula and Pembrokeshire in the heart of Southwest Wales. Tanylan Farm provides the perfect base for you to explore the beauty and magic of the area. We have a range of homely and tastefully restored luxury cottages and barns, along with a caravan park. The space As the name suggests, The Old Cowshed was originally designed to accommodate up to 48 dairy cows. Built in 1864, the original design included a mezzanine level to house the farm workers, this was removed as farming methods changed and height was needed for the tractor. The barn has recently been restored and the mezzanine reinstated. The Old Cowshed sleeps 16 making it ideal for multiple families to share, or perhaps a group to celebrate an occasion. As you enter the barn it is hard not to be swept away by the size of the room. The main living area features a large kitchen with island, a grand table that can seat 16, and lots of seating with a smart TV and wifi. There is a utility nook with a large fridge and freezer, leading to a disabled friendly wetroom. On the ground floor there are two twin rooms, both with en-suite shower rooms. There are a further two twin rooms which each have jack and jill en-suite shower rooms leading to two rooms with a kind bed and a single bed. On the mezzanine is a further bedroom with a king bed and an en-suite with a shower over bath. The mezzanine is also home to the games room. The pool table is a great addition to this room, along with extra seating and another TV. The detached barn has ample parking and a large enclosed garden with seating, hot tub, ping pong table, fire pit and BBQ. A wood fire pizza oven is available on request. You will also be able to relax in our swim pond and sauna. We are child friendly with stair gates, travel cots, baby baths, potty, highchair and kids’ crockery. Well behaved dogs are welcome. Dogs are not allowed to be left alone, or in sleeping areas or on any furniture. The Old Cow Shed is perfect for any time of year. A cosy place to retreat to in the winter or a great base for your summer adventures. One of the biggest draws of Wales is the coastline. Whether you decide to relax on the beach with an ice cream, walk to coastal path, or be more adventurous and have a go at surfing or coasteering, our beaches are well worth a visit. Wales also has some fantastic castles, waterfalls, golf courses, museums, wildlife and even a few mountains! Guest access Guests have access to the whole property.
