Gernos Lodge was originally the main Lodge House for the now demolished 19th C Gernos Mansion that was last owned by the Tyler Family and before them the Parrys. The property has undergone sympathetic recent improvements and now provides a very comfortable 3 bedroom and 2 bathroom property with a large garden to the rear with plenty of off street parking space on the drive at the front of the house. Inside there is a sitting / dining room, utility room, attractive kitchen, bathroom, character lounge with woodburner, side porch area, on the first floor there are three bedrooms (master ensuite). This character home provides modern living but also with a respectful "nod" to its historical past and is only a 15 minute drive to the beaches at Penbryn and Llangrannog..

There is a vegetable-growing area and a pond. There is also a useful insulated timber shed as well as a timber chalet.
To the side of the property is a grassy track with gated access - a local farmer has a right of way over this track to access fields.
To the left of the track (at the rear) there is potential to fence this off lengthwise (whilst stll leaving access for the farmer along the lane) to make a small long, thin paddock for chickens or for a goat or two.
