Things to do nearby

This is glorious walking country in the wildest corner of the national park.

The open moorland of the Black Mountain offers superb hiking and stargazing, and the pretty towns of Llandeilo and Llangadog, with their shops and pubs, are close by for a change of pace.

Good to know

The single-storey layout makes the barn especially comfortable for guests who prefer to avoid stairs. Its remote setting means real peace and dark skies, so bring supplies, with Llandeilo and Llangadog close by for shops. The underfloor heating and wood burner make it inviting in any season, and walking boots are a must for the Black Mountain and Llyn y Fan Fach. The single-level layout and four bedrooms give a group plenty of comfortable, accessible space, and the private garden is a lovely spot to take in the views. With Carreg Cennen castle and the western Beacons all close by, there is plenty to explore.
