The Old Barn dates back to the 17th Century when it was used as farm buildings for the adjacent Croft. This charming, recently converted self contained barn combines many original features such as oak beams and slate floors with up to date facilities the modern traveller has come to expect.
We ensure our guests receive a warm welcome and we will look after you to the highest possible standards.
Just 13 miles from Cardiff and set in the heart of beautiful countryside, the Old Barn will suit those wishing to explore Cardiff and the Heritage Coast or attend events at the Cardiff Millennium Stadium. It is also ideally suited for the business traveller who requires a quiet yet homely place to stay.
