The Retreat at Glanrannell Park House

About this property

Llansawel is a thriving village in the lovely Cothi Valley, historically it was an important livestock market, due to it being on the convergence of five roads, and still retains two of the original five pubs, that once served the need of the transient drovers, whilst moving between markets. Surrounded by beautiful undulating countryside, close to the National Trust's Dolaucothi Gold Mines and the monastery ruins of Talley Abbey. Llansawel is a rural idyll, yet is close to the popular towns of Llandeilo and Llandovery and fabulous days out.

Note: Guests have freedom to walk around the grounds but request you respect this space and monitor noise.

Wood-fired hot tub not available after 9pm due to proximity to lake The Wood fired hot tub needs at least 6 hours’ notice please pre arrival to be able to guarantee it will be ready on the day of arrival.
