EXCITING NEWS, AND A LITTLE CHANGE, AT JABAJAK
Our wonderful head chef Louis and his partner Nicole are heading off on an adventure to Australia at the beginning of December for 8 weeks!
While they’re away, the restaurant & rooms will take a little winter rest and will be closed throughout December, January and February.
BUT.. Jabajak isn’t going completely quiet! During these months, we’ll be opening as a Big House Let, perfect for group getaways or family celebrations, accommodating up to 18 people with a minimum 3 night stay.
Imagine having the whole place to yourselves………..

THE BEST WINE IN WALES
We are absolutely thrilled to announce that our 2021 White House Sparkling Blush has just been crowned Best Regional Wine – Wales at the prestigious WineGB Awards 2025.
To repeat – The Best Wine in Wales. WOW!!
The awards were held at Southwark Cathedral on Thursday 17th July and our lovingly crafted sparkling blush scored an incredible 92 points out of 100, with judges praising its ”Notes of wild berries, redcurrants and peach yoghurt… a creamy and fresh palate with strawberries and cream on the finish. Deliciously creamy mousse. Well made, enjoyable.”
Louis and Nicole went to the awards to collect the trophy as this isa huge honour for us and a very proud moment for Carmarthenshire Wine!
Wine not come and celebrate with us…
ABOUT US
Set in 7 acres of grounds in a tranquil, peaceful location amongst beautiful rolling countryside and within its own vineyard, Jabajak is an eclectic gem on the border of Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire, central to all the best of West Wales.
Under new ownership since September 2021, Steve and Jackie Moody have sympathetically added their own contemporary styling to the three intimate dining areas, The Smithy, The Attic and The Cowshed, as well as the cosy Landsker Bar, all formed out of the original old Drover’s stone buildings. Think warm stone walls, honeyed wood beams, a roaring log burning stove and flattering candlelight.
ELECTRIC CAR CHARGING POINTS
For electric car owners, we have installed two Tesla Type 2 charging points which are free to use for overnight guests.
OUR VINEYARD, KITCHEN AND WINES
Our vineyard has been given a makeover as it has matured, and now Steve and Jackie’s boundless enthusiasm is obvious in the clear step change in what was already a well-regarded kitchen serving impeccably sourced local ingredients, with real provenance. The resident honeybees, and our own vegetable gardens, make dining a treat.
Needless to say as accomplished winemakers, our very own tipple, the White House Wine of Wales, shows well in a wine list of rare quality and turns ‘wine-miles’ into ‘wine-metres!
The award-winning range of White House wines includes a still white, a still red, a sparkling white and a sparkling blush. The latter was crowned ‘Best Wine in Wales’ in the WineGB 2025 awards.
CELLAR DOOR WINE TASTING EXPERIENCE
Why not join a wine tasting talk at 17.30 each day to enjoy three of our different vintages, whilst learning about the fascinating history of Jabajak and our link to the White House in America? It is a journey through history and weather permitting will include a walk around the vineyard.
