This is an extremely comfortable barn conversion. It is a tiny bit out of the way from Ammanford centre but the peace you get is worth it. Definitely recommended.

Our second two-week stay at this beautiful refurbished barn. Part of a farm so we've been surrounded in lambs and lovely views. For those who love walking, it's an interesting 1.5 mile walk into town via farmland and public footpaths. Large supermarket a few minutes drive away, with cafes and shops. The owners who live next door are lovely and very helpful if needed, and the hot tub is a bonus after a long walk. Everything you need is in the comfortable barn, Smart TVs in lounge and bedrooms, and plenty of room with games and books, if it's a rainy day. Will be back.

Absolute superb little farm cottage. Davina has thought of everything to accommodate your little get away, based on a working farm which was lovely to also see the cows and sheep! Big Tesco 5 minute drive away with lots to do and see in the local towns. Will be booking again in the near future. Thank you so much
