Cuffern Manor, a Grade II-listed Georgian house near the village of Roch in Pembrokeshire, has been put on the market as a guest house and lifestyle retreat. The property, which dates from the late 18th century, sits within 3.21 acres of grounds and the sale includes an option to add around a further 2 acres of woodland.
Character house adapted for hospitality
The manor has been adapted over recent decades into a hospitality business that combines traditional reception rooms with comfortable guest accommodation. The main house contains eight individually designed guest bedrooms alongside several public rooms such as lounges, dining spaces, a sitting room and a library, enabling a mix of short breaks and longer stays.
Self-catering options and flexible bookings
In addition to the rooms in the manor, the estate includes two separate self-contained units that broaden its appeal for families and longer-stay visitors. These are:
- Fiddlers' Cottage — a substantial three-bedroom barn conversion with open-plan living, suitable for families or groups.
- The Bothy — a one-bedroom cottage with a wood-burning stove, aimed at couples or longer-term guests.
| Accommodation | Details |
|---|---|
| Main house bedrooms | 8 individually styled rooms |
| Fiddlers' Cottage | 3 bedrooms, barn conversion |
| The Bothy | 1 bedroom, cottage with wood burner |
Location and tourism draw
Located close to the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and approximately three miles from Newgale — a two-mile sandy beach popular with walkers and surfers — the property benefits from a strong year-round tourism catchment. The setting lends itself to outdoor pursuits and destination travel, which underpin the business model.
History, stewardship and sale process
The current owners have operated the business for 22 years, the longest recent tenure since the original Stokes family who occupied the manor from 1770 until 1918. Specialist business property adviser Christie & Co is handling the sale, citing the property’s potential as a lifestyle business and opportunities to expand trading through extended opening and targeted marketing.
“Cuffern Manor is a beautiful Georgian property, ideally located close to Pembrokeshire National Park and Newgale, attracting significant tourism to the area. The property represents an exciting lifestyle business opportunity, with significant scope for growth through extended trading, marketing initiatives,”
The sale presents a blend of character and commercial potential: a period house with a hospitality operation already in place, supported by additional self-catering units and sizeable grounds. Prospective buyers seeking a rural boutique hotel, guest house or private retreat with income-generating potential will find a ready-made proposition.
Practical considerations for buyers include the Grade II listing, which will affect alterations, and the seasonal nature of tourism in West Wales — though proximity to the coast and outdoor attractions helps sustain visitor numbers through much of the year.
