Tucked away in the heart of the sought-after village of St Florence, just minutes from Tenby and the breathtaking Pembrokeshire coastline, The Grove Farmhouse offers a lifestyle that is becoming increasingly rare to find a home filled with soul, history and authenticity, beautifully restored for modern living while preserving centuries of architectural heritage.

Believed to be one of the oldest and most historically significant homes in St Florence, this exceptional property seamlessly blends its medieval origins with the charm and elegance of a traditional Pembrokeshire farmhouse.

Behind the striking stone façade, the magnificent 14th-century Gothic-arched doorway immediately sets the tone for what lies beyond a home rich in atmosphere, character and timeless appeal.

Over the last seven years, the current owners have undertaken an extraordinary restoration, driven by a deep respect for the property’s history and original craftsmanship.

Traditional building methods and natural materials were prioritised throughout, with modern cement renders carefully removed to allow the house to breathe naturally once again.

Lime pointing, breathable finishes, exposed stonework and handcrafted details all combine to create interiors that feel warm, calming and effortlessly elegant.

Every decision was made with integrity and longevity in mind.

The house has been comprehensively upgraded with rewiring, replumbing, a new boiler and carefully considered insulation, including natural sheep’s wool, ensuring comfort and energy efficiency while protecting the historic fabric of the building.

The home tells a story at every turn.

Research into the property uncovered its connection to William and Elizabeth Morris, prominent figures within the village community during the 19th century, when the house became The Ball Inn.

Their legacy remains woven into the home today, from the hand-painted William Morris wallpaper in the dining room to the original hooks discovered during restoration works, once used for hanging home-cured hams served to guests many years ago.

The handcrafted kitchen sits at the heart of the home a beautifully sociable space designed for modern family life, relaxed entertaining and cosy evenings after days spent exploring the coast.

Fossil limestone floors, bespoke joinery, exposed stone walls and locally handcrafted features continue throughout the property, reflecting the exceptional skill of Pembrokeshire artisans and the owners’ unwavering commitment to quality and authenticity.

Outside, the lifestyle on offer is equally compelling.

The private rear garden enjoys a wonderfully sheltered, sun-soaked position, ideal for outdoor dining, summer gatherings or quiet mornings with coffee beneath the Pembrokeshire sky.

To the side, a private driveway provides convenient off-road parking.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, the surrounding area offers an abundance of beautiful circular countryside and woodland walks, making this an especially appealing home for dog owners and nature lovers alike.

Adding further appeal is the former cow shed to the rear, now incorporating the fourth bedroom and offering excellent versatility for modern living.

Perfect as guest accommodation, a home office, creative studio or independent space for older children or multigenerational living, it also presents exciting potential for a self-contained annexe or holiday let, subject to any necessary consents.
