Fine & Country West Wales proudly presents Sticle Vineyard — a rare and distinguished opportunity for discerning buyers seeking a unique lifestyle or commercial venture.

Nestled across 34 acres of elevated Carmarthenshire countryside, Sticle Vineyard is a showcase of natural beauty, architectural charm, and entrepreneurial potential.

Currently operating as a boutique organic vineyard, the property features 10 acres planted with 10,000 premium sparkling wine vines (Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier, and Pinot Noir), reflecting both care and commercial viability.

At the heart of the estate are two residences:

  • A charming, fully modernised period stone house complete with lift access and elegant countryside views

  • A successful contemporary guest house, ideal for hosting or extended stays

Additionally, a multi-purpose agricultural building — built to modern specifications and equipped with 3-phase power — is ready to serve as a future winery or adaptable business space.

Sticle Vineyard offers extraordinary scope for development as a:

  • Luxury wedding or events venue

  • High-end wellness or eco-retreat

  • Equestrian facility

  • Farm-to-table restaurant

  • Sustainable lifestyle enterprise

With no onward chain and priced to encourage a timely sale, Sticle Vineyard is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to acquire one of Wales’ most versatile and visually captivating estates.

During March 2022, Fine and Country West Wales scooped the prestigious Top Operator in Wales Award at the Fine and Country Conference in Westminster. Nigel Salmon, Managing Director was understandably delighted with the award which was the culmination of 18 months' worth of hard work. Fine and Country was introduced into the Wonderful Mid and West Wales area for the first time by Nigel and his team in the late summer of 2020 during the pandemic. Nigel thanks all his clients, friends and family, and the Head Office in Park Lane who all contributed towards the success of the brand, specialising in the exceptional marketing of properties along the Cardigan Bay coastline. This has resulted in the numerous five-star reviews for the West Wales Office and buoyed by the success in May 2022, Nigel and his team will now open a new prestigious office in Station Chambers next to Aberystwyth train station. Clients can now physically discover just what sets Fine and Country apart from other companies when they visit this Luxury Centre which will service the whole area showcasing properties in a special way.
