The welcome package from the host was a lovely touch.The cottage has everything you need including no hassle parking.Llandovery is a nearby village ( about 5 mins drive) where you can get everything you need for your stay, including cafes, pubs & shops.Will definitely be returning in the future.

Gamekeepers Cottage is a small, cute, cosy bolt hole set in splendid Scenery. Because it in in a valley there is no Phone signal. Ideal if you want to be incommunicado! WiFi works though. The Cottage is beautifully laid out. Bed and Bathroom upstairs. Stair start with a spiral then are quite steep. Maybe not best for eldery folks. Llandovery has good facilities and pubs, The Bear does good food.Fully recommend this cottage. The owners live on site and are very helpful.
