About this property

Llandeilo 3.9 miles. This pretty semi-detached cottage lies just moments away from the picturesque village of Golden Grove, set in the heart of Carmarthenshire and enjoys stunning views over the valley towards the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons). With its peaceful location and both the coast and countryside of West Wales awaiting to be enjoyed, this barn conversion, one of a complex of three with the owners living nearby, is perfect for groups of families or friends to call home. The fully-equipped kitchen boasts a quality range of appliances that are certain to encourage a spot of home-cooking, whilst the dining table is a great spot for gathering together to enjoy in a family-favourite dish and your loved ones company. Moving through the property, you will discover the sitting room, which boasts a characterful stone wall with an attractive electric log burner, a true focal point of the room, together with an enhanced view of the countryside through the large glass patio door, here you can kick back and relax in front of the Smart TV or curl up to delve into a good book. To the exterior, you and your loved ones can look forward to savouring the glorious countryside setting whilst enjoying a relaxing, soothing soak in the hot tub. Completing the ground floor is the master bedroom, with its super-king-size bed and en-suite shower room. Upstairs there is a second bedroom with zip'n'link twin beds (or request for super king size) and its own en-suite shower room. If you can tear yourself away from this delightful abode, head into the nearby town of Llandeilo, which is set in the heart of the Towy Valley and has an interesting selection of individual shops, galleries and eateries, or travel slightly further afield to the historic town of Carmarthen, which is home to a larger selection of amenities to enjoy. The surrounding area is known as the Garden of Wales, so you can expect a plethora of gardens to explore, including the National Botanic Garden of Wales and Aberglasney, a garden lost in time, or if you are bringing two-wheels along, look forward to the network of mountain bike trails within the Brechfa Forest. For those feeling active, find plenty of outdoor action here too, with the River Towy offering great salmon and sewin fishing, whilst the many woodland walks offer opportunities to catch glimpses of wildlife, including red kites, owls, badgers and deer. Alternatively, travel further afield towards the Gower Peninsula, which plays host to an array of stunning beaches, including Three Cliffs Bay and Rhossili Bay, whilst the Black Mountain and Bannau Brycheiniog National Park (Brecon Beacons National Park) are just a scenic drive away, ideal for any avid ramblers. With the magnificent Towy Valley surrounding, Gwennol Cottage is an exceptional base for that long-awaited holiday in Wales.

Llandeilo is a bustling town resting amidst the Carmarthenshire countryside resting proudly on a hill above the River Tywi, the longest river that flows entirely through Wales. Within the town, you will find a good selection of unusual gift shops, eating places and pubs, whilst visits to the medieval Dinefwr and Carreg Cennen Castles add to the charm. The Bannau Brycheiniog National Park (Brecon Beacons National Park) and the Black Mountains are a walker's delight, whilst the Gower Peninsula plays host to an array of beaches.

    Well equipped my daughter loved her walk in wardrobe and en-suite.I loved the hot tub .very quiet area .We also liked the fact that you told dog owners to keep them on a lead as my daughter even though she is an adult is one of those people who are scared of dogs .It was just the peace and quiet we needed and enjoyed visiting the area despite the weather but we know it always rains when we get to Wales on previous family visits.It was also near a family member so gave us a chance to visit him.The only downside I found was that the two smallest knives were not very sharp when I used them and unfortunately the kettle stopped working on the last morning but that can happen at anytime as they are temperamental.

    Very nice cottage.

  • David

    Cottage itself was immaculately clean, warm and cosy with baby gate, high chair and cot provided for the little one. The views from the cottage were amazing, the jacuzzi was top of the range and very welcome after running around after little one all day. Everything you need for a cosy, relaxing break
