Lampeter 2 miles. Set on a hillside, in the village of Pentrebach near Lampeter, this former farmhouse enjoys far-reaching south-facing countryside views. Once off the main road and on a 'no through' road, you will pass two houses on your way up to the property and then only come across the local farm traffic thereafter.

We had such a great week at this house with our group of 13, ages from 4 to 78. The place was super comfy and well-equipped for everyone. The welcome food package, especially the Victoria sponge, was a lovely touch! The hot tub was a definite highlight. It’s set in a peaceful spot with woods, fieldsand sheep all around, which we loved. There’s plenty to do nearby, even if everything’s a bit of a drive - zip wires, botanic gardens, damand awesome walks in the Brecon Beacons. We’d definitely go back!

So relaxing to sip prosecco while soaking in the hot tub and gazing over the rolling hills. Plus, it’s perfect for walking or biking straight from the door. We’ll definitely be coming back, it’s just such a lovely spot!
