“Had an enjoyable stay at the stables, beautiful cottage, lovely and clean, comfortable.”

Sitting outside in the late September sunshine, with a glass of wine, peace and quiet was to die for. The owners were very friendly and helpful and we even had a visit from there dog Lola.

Wales is a beautiful part of the country, so give it a go.

“Would like to comment that we liked the cottage, the location and the cleanliness but on arrival felt very cold and damp and it was a while before we could get a fire going or how to work the heating it took a long time to warm up.”

Kitchen equipment was very antiquated, grill on oven took so long we gave up on it. Shower not a strong flow and drain not cleared of hair became blocked after a day. Also we were asked to keep our dog on a lead and clean up his poo which we did but our courtyard became littered with the farm dogs poo even one morning finding a deposit on the door mat. Would have liked more information about the area even so enjoyed the time and the quiet location of the cottage.

“The stable could do with some new crockery as some of it was cracked, chipped, broken, toilet seat needs replacing or fixing as every time someone sat on it it moved and could domwith a washing machine.”

Apart from what is listed it is a very nice place. Also it would be worth a mention the noise the toilet makes which I'm guessing is it happens when anyone on that farm uses water day or night

- very friendly owners, who let our Children participate in the daily farm life; a lot of lovely dogs and cats that need petting - no WLAN reception inside the Cottage (not bad for me, but for my thirteen year old daughter… ;)

“As usual the standard of the holiday cottage was exceptional and the surrounding area was really beautiful.”

The walks around the land were so peaceful and tranquil. The surrounding villages were quaint and very welcoming. The only things that were not to out taste were the things that unfortunately were out of Sykes control. Our dog was attacked twice by the owners dogs as soon as we arrived, although the incident was resolved very quickly it wasn’t the start we wanted after a long and stressful drive. The owner was very apologetic and kept her dogs in throughout the rest of our stay so our dog could ramble to his hearts content. The second issue was the people in the property right next door to us insisted on playing really load music every night. I am not a party pooper by any stretch of the imagination but we go to these out of the way places for our holiday to get away from all the noise. The owner did apologise and tried to get the neighbour to turn the music down but to no avail. In the end I ended up shouting over the fence for quite a long time before I was heard above the music for them to turn it down. All in all I would highly recommend the cottage, the chances of anyone else getting inconsiderate neighbours must be slim, surely.

Dol Llan Farm Cottages

A cluster of former farm buildings, offering welcoming accommodation situated around the owners’ farmyard with views across the valley to the quaint riverside town of Llandysul, in the heart of rural Carmarthenshire. These valley cottages are ideally located in a peaceful setting surrounded by the owners’ farm with stunning Welsh horses and ponies and a short five minute drive from Llandysul town. Llandysul offers a selection of local shops and pubs and is just half an hour’s drive from the county town of Carmarthen or the sandy beaches of Cardigan Bay. Each individually furnished with their own unique style, these properties offer flexible accommodation for families or small groups. These diverse cottages are clustered around the farmyard with the buzz of everyday life around you and views across the fields. Each property has a feeling of privacy and is comfortably furnished. The cottages offer modern kitchens, with electric ovens in two of the properties, all with electric hobs, dining areas and comfy seating to relax into after a day enjoying the diverse countryside that surrounds the town and little river valley, and all with TVs and DVD. With access for all the cottages to a communal seating area and a summer plunge pool, you may be happy to relax around the pool and just enjoy the slow pace of life and tranquil view. These rural Carmarthenshire cottages are slightly off the beaten track, with plenty of opportunities to walk, cycle and even make the most of the River Teifi that runs through the town with either fishing, or in Llandysul you can grab a wet suit and take part in some whitewater canoeing and paddling. The coast is 15 miles away at the pretty seaside village of Llangrannog, or the stunning sands at the National Trust’s Penbryn Beach. A little further north is the regency harbour town of Aberaeron, 18 miles, with its multi-coloured houses lining the harbour and surrounding streets or perhaps visit the nearby National Trust’s Llanerchaeron, a working farm estate, where you can take a stroll to Aberaeron town along the old railway, a great way to while away a few hours and perhaps treat yourself to a honey ice-cream at your destination. There are a fabulous array of outdoor activities nearby with canoeing in nearby Llandysul, walking, cycling and birdwatching. Why not visit Brecha Forest with its fantastic walking and cycling trails, a real favourite of mountain bikers, or the adjacent Llanllwni Mountain with is stretch of heathland and impressive views? The nearby coastline opens up fantastic days with the coastal path taking you through sandy beaches, craggy coves and secret beaches. Why not take a wildlife watching boat trip, from New Quay where you may be lucky enough to catch sight of the bay’s resident dolphins or grey seal population, as well as a myriad of birdlife? An ideal trio of countryside cottages, offering an ideal base for couples, families and small groups looking to stay surrounded by countryside, yet being within walking distance or a short drive from popular market towns and close to the fabulous West Wales coastline.
