Your Hosts
Meet the Jones Family ..
James and Lin Jones live just down the road from Maesgwyn, Beacon View Barns, and Beacon View Pods with their three children—Ceri, Rhys, and Sian. You might spot them around the farm or tending to the properties as part of their daily routine.
Maesgwyn is also home to Llewelyn, James' father, who remains an active member of the farming team and an important part of daily life on the land.
The Jones family began their holiday let journey in 2015, opening up the farmhouse to guests. Following its success, they expanded in 2017 by converting traditional barns and adding two glamping pods, creating the welcoming rural retreats you see today.
The family farms over 400 acres, focusing mainly on beef and sheep. The busiest season is lambing time in March and April—guests visiting during this period might be lucky enough to witness newborn lambs in the surrounding fields.
Summer brings a different kind of excitement, with plenty of tractor activity across the farm during harvest season—perfect for a bit of tractor spotting!
