Summary

This is an exceptional opportunity to purchase your own hidden valley with three properties, each enjoying their own privacy and character. The main home of Cwmpib is offered for sale for the first time ever, having been built by the current owners in 1972. This six-bedroom home is built around a central courtyard and is spread out over two floors. Below this main home you find the Gardener’s Cottage, a self-contained two-bedroom home which enjoys its own driveway, gardens and privacy from the main home. The final property on the estate is Pontgareg, a traditional Pembrokeshire cottage dating back to the early 1700s. While in need of complete renovation, the charm of this cottage is clear to see, and it enjoys an elevated position on the banks of the valley. The land at Cwmpib extends to approximately twelve and a half acres and includes the wooded valley and several paddocks on its upper slopes. The driveway winds down the valley, skirting the bubbling stream which gives a wonderful background soundtrack to the residence. This exciting estate would be a fantastic purchase for a multi-generational family or a buyer looking to establish a letting business in a simply wonderful setting.

The main house of Cwmpib enjoys a sunny position on the top of the southern slopes of the valley and benefits from elevated views across the grounds and the countryside beyond. Entering from the central courtyard, you arrive in a large entrance hall which has doors to the sitting room, dining room and kitchen. The sitting room and separate dining room are superb entertaining spaces with views over the valley. The large kitchen is also found off the entrance hall, providing a super space for a chef and offering an informal dining nook. Off the kitchen you find a large utility, pantry, and a very spacious boot room with doors to the outside. The hallway continues around to the side, giving access to the four bedrooms and family bathroom on the ground floor. The master bedroom on this level benefits from a large ensuite shower room. The accommodation on this level is completed with two cloakrooms and a large boiler room. There is an integral double garage to the side of the property offering great storage space.

On the first floor of the home you find two further bedrooms, one currently used as a fabulous library. Both spaces enjoy wonderful, elevated views of the surrounding grounds and countryside. The second bedroom enjoys a walk-in dressing room area and an ensuite bathroom.

The other two properties on the estate comprise the two-bedroom Gardener’s Cottage and the one-bedroom cottage of Pontgareg. The Gardener's Cottage offers a sitting room, kitchen diner, family bathroom and double bedroom on the ground floor, with another double bedroom found on the floor above. Pontgareg requires complete renovation but currently offers two reception rooms on the ground floor with another large space in the pitched roof above. Both properties enjoy their own access and gardens and enjoy privacy from each other, along with views over the wooded valley.

Externally, Cwmpib sits in approximately twelve and a half acres of woodland and paddocks. This beautiful hidden valley is accessed via a long driveway which brings you down into the woodland. Pontgareg is the first property you reach, situated just up from a small bridge over the stream which runs down the valley. The driveway then splits, with each fork leading to the main house of Cwmpib and the Gardener’s Cottage. The wooded valley is both a haven for wildlife and a beautiful space for the owners to explore. At the top of the valley next to the main home, you find a paddock which could be of interest to any buyer with horses.

The estate is found just south of the village of New Moat and has both the A40 road and the county town of Haverfordwest within easy reach. To the north you find the majestic Preseli Hills, with the entire Pembrokeshire coastline within easy reach. For those looking for a private estate which offers both huge charm and superb potential, Cwmpib should make for essential viewing.

Pontgareg
In need of complete renovation, this charming traditional Pembrokeshire cottage dates to 1708. The building has two rooms on the ground floor and another room accessed by a wooden loft ladder, which could form a first-floor bedroom. While in need of work, the charm offered by this property would make it a delightful cottage. It also enjoys an elevated position looking down the valley and could easily have its own parking, access and gardens.

External
Accessed by way of a secluded private lane and a picturesque bridge which crosses a bubbling stream, the approach to the main residence and the Gardener’s Cottage immediately establishes the character of the estate. As you cross the bridge, the landscape gradually opens out, revealing a beautifully tranquil collection of mature trees, wildflowers, and an atmosphere of enduring calm. It is a setting that feels both carefully curated and wonderfully organic, offering a sense of arrival that is both impressive and deeply peaceful. Next to the bridge as you enter the property is the cottage of Pontgareg, which has its own access and potential for a parking area. The driveway splits after the bridge, allowing for separate access to both The Cottage and Cwmpib.

The grounds, which extend to approximately 12.5 acres, have been carefully arranged to create a variety of distinct yet complementary spaces. These include a broad, open field ideal for recreation or keeping animals. The grounds would be ideal for an owner with an equestrian interest, with perfect grazing on hand. Several more intimate, formal garden areas designed for quiet enjoyment; and a wildflower meadow that not only enhances the estate’s visual charm but also serves as a valuable habitat for local wildlife.

Further adding to the property is a substantial stretch of woodland, which forms a wonderful backdrop and provides countless opportunities for outdoor exploration, and firewood for the properties. Whether enjoyed for leisurely walks, nature watching, or simply as a tranquil setting in which to unwind, the woodland enhances the estate’s sense of privacy and rural seclusion.

Directions
Leave Haverfordwest and head northeast on the B4329 toward Crundale. As you enter Crundale, take the right-hand fork marked for Clarbeston Road. Continue along this road for approximately three miles until you reach Clarbeston Road village. In the village, turn left to cross the railway bridge, then drive for a further four miles. You’ll pass Wood Park Off-Road Centre on your right before descending the hill toward New Moat. Just before New Moat, look for a small woodland on your right and a sign for “Cwmpib.” Turn here onto the private lane and follow it downhill, crossing a stream, bear left and your will arrive at the main property.
