Manorbier

A FORMER STATION MASTER'S HOUSE & RAILWAY STATION OFFERING CHARACTER ACCOMMODATION WITH SIZEABLE ESTABLISHED GARDENS AND AN ADJACENT PADDOCK

GENERAL

Station House is part of a 'hamlet' now known as Manorbier Station. It is within the beautiful southern section of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park about a mile from the well known castle and beach at Manorbier. The picturesque resort of Tenby is approx. 4 miles and the historic town of Pembroke is approx. six miles.

Apparently the Railway Station and Station Master's House were built during the 1860's and the former was converted into additional living accommodation following the Station becoming unstaffed in the 1960's. It is a Grade II Listed Building. The Platform belongs to Network Rail and is still part of the Carmarthen to Pembroke Dock working branch line. Apparently there are about seven trains running per day.

The attractive location is rural but not remote. With the Paddock/Field, Station House is arguably a Residential Smallholding.
