about the property

Priced for up to 2 staying, sleeps 2. Stone cottage near Llandeilo on the Glynhir estate, next to a golf course.

Built around 1780, Banc-y-Felin cottage is a super spot for two, ideally located to explore the best of Carmarthenshire ('The Garden of Wales'), with easy access to the coast and the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons).

Everything here is well proportioned - one large lounge, one large bedroom, and a third of an acre of garden with a choice of outdoor dining. Lauren and Scott have done a lovely job renovating the place - they live just 5 minutes away and run Wales' most popular independent coffee roasters, Coaltown.

Our favourite Welsh castle (Carreg Cennen) is under 5 miles away, as is Llandeilo, considered one of the loveliest towns in Wales. It sits on a very quiet dead-end lane, just a couple of fields away from Glynhir golf course (with bar and food, takeaway available and known for its Sunday roasts). Hike Tair Carn Isaf or Llygaid Llwychwr, or wander through Dinefwr Park, Golden Grove, Aberglasney Gardens and the National Botanic Garden of Wales.

If you want to get to the beach, the Gower Peninsula, Millennium Coastal Path, Pembrokeshire Coastline, and Ceredigion are all within easy reach for a day trip.

customer reviews for *NEW* Banc y Felin

Lovely cottage. Comfortable and well equiped. Lovely having the Rayburn. Beautifully decorated and presented. Also the cottage decorated for xmas was a lovely touch. Have stayed in cottages before, at this time of year where this hasn't been the case. A vacuum cleaner would be a useful addition. I like to leave the cottage as I find it, especially because we hholiday with our dogs.

We had the most amazing time in this gorgeous cottage! The owners were super friendly and responsive when we had questions, which we really appreciated. The cottage is cosy, clean, beautiful and very well set up for a truly relaxing holiday. We especially loved the little touches for our doggie, with some yummy doggie treats and a beautiful big doggie mattress welcoming him. The coffee machine and superb coffee was a brilliant treat. The bedroom is spacious with a great mattress and comfy pillows. Stunning bathroom with really great towels. We loved every bit of our time here and would love to come back! Thank you again.
