3 bed barn conversion for sale

Little Highway Mews, Pennard Road, Pennard SA3

Set in the ever-popular village of Pennard on the Gower Peninsula, No. 2 Little Highway Mews is a distinctive 3-bedroom mid-terrace barn conversion showcasing upside-down living to take full advantage of its wonderful rural outlooks. This thoughtfully designed home combines character features with a versatile layout, generous gardens, and excellent parking, offering an inviting balance of charm and family living.

Steeped in history, No. 2 Little Highway Mews forms part of the former outbuildings of Little Highway Farm, once central to Gower’s thriving smuggling trade during the 18th century. The barns here were used to conceal contraband brandy, rum, tobacco and other goods brought ashore at Brandy Cove and Pwlldu Bay before being carried inland by packhorse along the old Smugglers Lane. What was once a secretive storehouse in turbulent times has now been reimagined as a charming and comfortable home, where echoes of its colourful past blend seamlessly with everyday practicality and rural tranquillity.
Pennard remains one of the Gower’s most sought-after locations, prized for its outstanding natural scenery, vibrant community, and excellent amenities. Just moments away are the golden sands of Three Cliffs Bay, Pobbles and Pwlldu, as well as Pennard Golf Club, renowned for its dramatic clifftop course. The village itself provides a good selection of day-to-day facilities including a convenience store, bakery, post office, pharmacy and welcoming pubs. Families are well catered for with a well-regarded primary school, while the surrounding area offers miles of coastal paths, nature reserves, and a thriving food and arts scene. Swansea city centre is less than a 20-minute drive, where you’ll find excellent shopping, dining, leisure facilities and transport links to Cardiff, Bristol, and beyond.
