Vendor Insight

Bought when their three boys were very young, Old Farm has been a “home from home” for the vendors for 15 years. “We wanted a holiday home where our family could make lots of memories together and our children could experience carefree holidays,” they say. “This property has more than fulfilled that dream, with our boys always referring to Old Farm as their ‘happy place’.”

The history of the property is part of what makes it so special. “Old Farm is part of a small, safe community of 17 properties which was once part of a farm,” say the owners. “Set alongside homes converted from agricultural buildings, ours is an elegant stone farmhouse. It has been stylishly updated whilst retaining the character of the old farmhouse, with the most recent renovations being interior redecoration, all new windows, doors and roof, and the rebuilding of the chimneys. The house is full of natural light and most rooms enjoy a double aspect view. The dining kitchen situated in the middle of the house is the heart of the home. You can watch and listen to the cows in the farmer’s field from here, which we find so relaxing and such an escape from city life! The farmhouse is ideal for entertaining too, with two sitting rooms looking out over the garden. One has an open fire in a magnificent marble surround, which when lit makes a special place to sit and relax, or to open presents around the Christmas tree. Not only perfect for family life, this wonderfully versatile house would suit young professionals too, with good broadband speed in East Orielton making home working a breeze.”

Outside, the stunning gardens are another truly special feature of the property. “The garden is enclosed by old estate stone walls which we have lovingly renovated,” say the owners. “Within this is the main garden and a smaller walled garden which the children refer to as ‘the secret garden’. Bordered on three sides by woodland, the trees attract owls which can be heard in the evenings. It is also a wonderful place to star gaze, with clear skies away from the light pollution of the city. The main garden has hosted many games of cricket and rugby, and holds fond memories of the children laughing and enjoying themselves. Meanwhile, the two patios have seen countless al fresco dinners, barbecues and impromptu drinks with family and friends, as well as being the place all the family have chosen to celebrate milestone birthdays and anniversaries.”

The local area has much to offer, too. “The property is only a very short drive from the most amazing coastline,” say the owners, “our regular haunts being the rugged and wild Freshwater West, Angle, and Broadhaven South, which is best reached by walking through the Stackpole Estate lilyponds. It is impossible to get bored of the ever-changing sounds, sights and smells of these places. Amenities at Pembroke and Pembroke Dock are very close by for all our daily needs. Within Old Farm itself, there is a lovely sense of community: we have made some of our best friends here and it will be a wrench to leave them.”
