The Stables - Tyn Cellar Barns, Margam

Glamorgan. Sleeps up to 8

This is one of the oldest buildings on the farm and one of the prettiest with its red stone work thought to date back to the 1400’s .

This cottage consists of 2 bed rooms both on the ground floor with a superking/twin bed and bunk bed in each bedroom. Both bedrooms are ensuite. This is suitable for families or 4 single persons in each. The ground floor also has a large kitchen diner and spacious lounge with access to a large patio area with views over the Margam hills. There is underfloor heating in the stables which is supplied by our Biomass boiler.

This stable block was used to house the farms shire horses (the tractors of their day) in individual stables, but during the renovation it was found that the stables were so badly riddled with wood worm most of the existing timber had to be disposed of. We have retained the original oak stable entrances and these are on the wall in the lounge area. On one of the stable posts you will notice that there is a plaque that is from the Glamorgan regiment for the 2 horses that the farm gave them to aid the war effort in the first World War in 1914.

This accommodation would be ideal for Groups i.e. Cyclists ,Walkers,Golfers and Large Families
Tyn Cellar Farm Cottages are Grade 4 listed by Visit Wales and the whole farm is Grade 2 listed and was once part of Margam Abbey dating back to the 1200s.

Some of the properties were updated in the late 1800s and still retain some Victorian characteristics including the roof tiles.
