Whisk your loved one away for a rural stay in Carmarthen with your very own private hot tub to enjoy in the well-cared-for enclosed garden. Take a day trip south to Carmarthen (7 miles) and you can explore the River Tywi, Carmarthen Bay and Carmarthen Castle on your travels, as well as visit the weekly markets on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

The open-plan living room/kitchen/diner is a bright room with plenty of space for you to sprawl out and relax on the sofa in front of the log burner after a day of adventure. Featuring a gorgeous log burner in the corner, this space makes for relaxing. In the kitchen, you can sit up at the breakfast bar with your morning coffee, or serve up a home-cooked meal on the dining table for two, located by the patio doors. When night falls, the blissful double bedroom offers a comfortable place to rest your head, with an en-suite shower room for convenience. Extending the living space outside, the garden is full of life with complete privacy from the rest of the smallholding. Here you can dine alfresco on the table and chairs or sink into bubbling bliss in the hot tub and watch the stars sparkle above you; a perfect way to end the day. During the festive period, a Christmas Tree and decorations are put up in the property for all to enjoy. 

For meals out and leisurely afternoons perusing the independent shops, head to Newcastle Emlyn (5 miles) to immerse yourself in the local culture. Whilst you’ll be surrounded by blissful countryside, the coast is still within easy reach, with the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park 23 miles away. From Cardigan (22 miles), you can join the Pembrokeshire Coast Path for an invigorating walk with beautiful, rugged scenery, or from Fishguard (30 miles) you can take the 6-mile walk to Strumble Head Lighthouse for panoramic views of the ocean.

Had a fantastic time here! The cottage has everything you would need, it was very clean and cosy! The owners are nearby and they are very kind, attentive and respond quickly. They left cute little touches for us such as welcome gifts and a toy and treats for our dog. The garden are was lovely and secure so we had peace of mind that our doggie was Read moresafe - he also really enjoyed the dog paddock. The hot tub was a great bonus, perfect for relaxing. Overall very happy experience and would definitely recommend! Hide

The cottage is gorgeous would be amazing when hot to sit outside and have a BBQ. Had everything you needed, the owners were so nice and are there if you need them but you are left alone which is nice. The cottage is private and there is a paddock to let your dog have a run around.

We had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay at Dairy Cottage and loved the outside space with secure garden for our Houdini dog and the decking and hot tub areas, which get the sun most of the day.

The gifts and and little extras made it a warm welcome to the property. Even though it was next to the owners property, it was very private. Well kept outside area by the hot tub. Could hear the traffic on road but it did not disturb us. Recommend the bunch of grapes for Sunday lunch in Newcastle Emlyn.
