5 Bedroom Detached House

A Home Filled With Memories, Ready For Its Next Chapter...

"Rhyd Y Groes holds a truly special place in our family's story. As one of the very first homes to be built on the highly sought-after Barn Lake development, it has provided over three decades of unforgettable memories in one of Pembrokeshire's most peaceful and picturesque settings. The land was purchased in 1990, with the house thoughtfully completed in 1992 by a respected local builder. It was built as the dream retirement home for my parents, who had spent their working lives serving the community of Neyland as local pharmacists. Although they moved only a couple of miles, Rhyd Y Groes offered an entirely different pace of life, where they embraced the tranquillity of the Cleddau Estuary and the comfort of a beautifully crafted home.

It quickly became the heart of our family. Weekends, school holidays, Christmas celebrations and long summer days brought generations together, creating memories that our children still treasure today. It was always a place where family naturally gathered, and where every visit felt like coming home. When my parents sadly passed away, we simply couldn't bring ourselves to sell a home that meant so much to us. Instead, we continued its story by enjoying it ourselves while also sharing it as a successful holiday home, allowing many other families to experience the peace, beauty and unique setting that make Rhyd Y Groes so special. It has been incredibly rewarding to hear how much others have fallen in love with the house and its surroundings, with many returning year after year to create their own cherished memories.

What we have always loved most is the overwhelming sense of calm. The ever-changing tides of the Cleddau provide a constantly evolving outlook, with passing boats, abundant birdlife and the changing seasons ensuring that no two days ever feel quite the same. There is something incredibly special about sitting quietly and watching the world drift by, whether with a morning coffee as the estuary comes to life or an evening drink as the sun begins to set.

Despite its peaceful setting, the property enjoys an abundance of natural light throughout the year while offering a wonderful sense of privacy. It is a home that encourages you to slow down, appreciate your surroundings and enjoy life's simpler moments. Whether spending time with family or simply taking in the peaceful outlook, it has a remarkable way of making every day feel just that little bit more special. At the same time, beautiful beaches, welcoming villages and everything Pembrokeshire has to offer are only a short drive away, making it the perfect balance between peaceful retreat and coastal adventure.

The decision to sell has not been an easy one, but we feel the time is right for another family to begin making memories here. Rhyd Y Groes has given us decades of happiness, laughter and togetherness, and it is our sincere hope that its next owners will come to love this remarkable home, its exceptional setting and the unique lifestyle it offers just as much as we have.”
