This cosy cabin in the Carmarthenshire countryside is a perfect getaway, whether you’re looking for a romantic hideaway or an adventure-packed holiday. Located 4 miles from Llandovery, this colourful town offers a variety of independent eateries and shops and provides a gateway to the Cambrian Mountains, popular with hikers and cyclists. Llandovery is also one of the train stops on the scenic Heart of Wales line, on which you can enjoy some of the most spectacular landscapes stretching from Swansea to Shrewsbury. More fun days out await just 7 miles away in the smallest town in Wales - Llanwrtyd Wells. This small town is well known for its Bog Snorkelling Championships, Real Ale Rambles and Man vs Horse race.

 Step through the French doors and into this wonderfully crafted cabin into the open plan living/kitchen and dining area, which has some quite unique features and accessories. After a busy day exploring, snuggle up on the sofa to read a book or watch the Smart TV. Everything you need to rustle up a home-cooked meal is provided within the kitchen area and Welsh dresser. A portable dining table and chairs are tucked neatly away for your use. You may find it difficult to wake from your slumber in the dreamy, double bedroom nook, which is super soft and comfortable and decorated with twinkly lights and floral trim. The floral theme follows through to the shower room with a pretty, Victorian-style basin and WC.

Outside, the magic continues with a lovely wooden terrace, which can be enjoyed come rain or shine and offers you relaxing views over the lawn area whilst you listen to the running stream. Head further into the enchanting garden to find a sunken fire pit and BBQ where you can spend many an evening relaxing under the stars and sharing stories.
