Additional Information..

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’ll often find them around the farm or tending to the properties as part of their everyday routine.

Maesgwyn is also home to Llewelyn, James’ father, who continues to play an active role in the farming team and remains an important part of daily life on the land.

The Jones family began their holiday let venture in 2015, welcoming guests to the farmhouse. After its success, they expanded in 2017 by converting traditional barns and adding two glamping pods, creating the warm and inviting rural escapes you see today.

Farming over 400 acres, the family focuses mainly on beef and sheep. The busiest time of year is lambing season in March and April—guests visiting then might even catch a glimpse of newborn lambs in the nearby fields.

Summer brings a different kind of buzz, with plenty of tractor activity across the farm during harvest—perfect for a bit of tractor spotting!
