  • "This was the perfect getaway for a relaxing and peaceful weekend."

    A beautiful, clean and cosy lodge. Great to sit on the veranda and watch the wildlife - squirrels and red kites. Followed by a relax in the hot tub and gaze at the stars. Thank you, will definitely be back x

    Thank you Katharine for your wonderful review. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay here in Wild Acre. It would be amazing to see you both again sometime in the future. Property Owner

  • "This was one of the best weeks of our lives - so needed a quiet cosy retreat!"

    Beautiful scenery, amazing facilities, having the hot tub was the best! The dark starry skies from a hot tub was amazing, time just evaporated. Lovely friendly owners and very cosy accommodation. Would definitely go again - in fact we'd happily live there, if that would be alright!!

  • "The cosiest cabin in the most stunning location."

    If peace and tranquility is what you're after then you must book to stay here. You truly are in the middle of nowhere with the closest shop around half an hour away. The host - Brian - was so friendly and attentive and after welcoming us on our first day, left us to enjoy our surroundings. We thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful local hikes/walks that kept us busy throughout the week, followed each day by a long soak in the hot tub which was a real treat. This property has EVERYTHING you could think of needing. The owners really have thought of every, single little detail. We had the most fantastic week and feel so grateful to have found this hidden treasure. Thank you for the most wonderful stay!

    Thank you April for your wonderful review and we are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your week here at Wild Acre. Property Owner

    Can be a little challenging with the size of accommodation but nothing that can’t be overcome and the location more than makes up for it!

  • "What a fabulous stay, a beautiful stunning drive in across the common onto a working farm, but hidden away in its own stunning location."

    Could not have asked for more. Brian was very friendly and made sure we had everything, even checked in on us after a couple of days. Offered areas to explore. Would definitely recommend, quite and remote just what we wanted. Perfect Alan & Kathy

  • "Fantastic location, very peaceful."

    Hot tub lovely was great for my arthritis. Lovely owners quick to sort any requests. Not a criticism but maybe in description wise to note that the bathroom is very small and that for a larger sized person it is a very tight entrance door as not a standard door, cannot tell by the pictures. I may be the only obese person that has gone there but you never know for the future. Myself, husband and dog will be back. Does it snow in October? Is it accessible to get there if so?

  • "A beautiful secluded holiday home with everything you need for a comfortable stay."

    The scenery through the beacons is breath taking, and the same goes for the working farm you arrive at. The owners met us on arrival with some extra towels and bits then left us too our own devices. They offered us the opportunity to go and feed the lambs which I thought was lovely as you can see they are always so busy but we didn't want to intrude on this stay. Maybe next time, as we will book this place again! The holiday home is perfectly sized for a few days/ weeks stay but I will state to make sure that you take everything you'll think you'll need as the shop is not just round the corner- to us this was part the fun... though forgetting the milk didn't go down well! If you want romance, peace and beautiful scenery then this place is a must.

The property

Llandovery 7.6 miles.

Set in the rural setting of Llanddeusant, a quaint community a short distance from Llandovery, Carmarthenshire, lies this wonderful holiday hut, Wild Acre.

Perfect for couples seeking a romantic escape to the Brecon Beacons National Park, renowned for its amazing dark sky reserve, this property boasts a wealth of appliances, providing everything you'll need for a relaxing, self-catered getaway.

Inside, make the most of the well-thought out, open-plan living space, complete with a well-equipped kitchen where the designated chef can whip up tasty meals for two that can be enjoyed whilst watching a television series at the breakfast bar, or even sat on the private, decked veranda, which enjoys stunning views of the surrounding Welsh countryside.

As the evening grows darker, indulge yourself in a long, hot soak in the outdoor hot tub before retreating to the plush double bed which awaits to transport you to a night's refreshing slumber.

After you've enjoyed your morning coffee whilst sat outside in the lush garden, be sure to take time to explore your local area by paying a visit to the small market town of Llandovery, which is a short drive away and home to the historic site of Llandovery Castle.

Llandeilo is also accessible by car, where you can find the attractions of Llandyfeisant Church, Dinefwr Castle and the National Trust landmark location of Dinefwr, a grand 17th-century manor house set within a tranquil nature reserve.

Nature lovers will relish in the chance to bird watch at the Red Kite feeding station, just over a mile away from Wild Acre, or the opportunity to stroll around both Llyn y Fan Lake, or the Usk Reservoir, both nearby and offering stunning countryside vistas.

The county town of Carmarthen is also worth a visit whilst you're in the area, home to the Gwili Steam Railway and the eponymous Carmarthen Castle.

The Brecon Beacons National Park also house several must-see travel spots, including the Henrhyd Falls, Corn Du, Maen Llia and Herbert's Quarry.

The famous Pen y fan mountain walk is 22 miles away.

Enjoy all of this and more during a relaxing stay at Wild Acre.

About the location

LLANDOVERY

Llandeilo 13 miles; Carmarthen 28 miles.

This pretty market town sits on the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park. This area is popular for walking, fishing and cycling with the Black Mountains, Crychan Forest, Cwm Rhaeadr and the River Towey waiting to be discovered.
A walk up to the castle is a must as from here you enjoy the views out across the town to the neighbouring River Bran.
After a day spent walking through the beautiful countryside there are many cafés, tea rooms, delis and patisseries for you to relax in. Not to be missed is the annual Sheep Festival which is held every September and celebrates droving, sheep farming and the wool industry. Llandovery is in a fantastic location with something to suit everyone on the doorstep. The village of Llandeilo, a twenty minute drive away, is a pretty market town with a lovely selection of unusual gift shops, eating places and pubs, whilst visits to the medieval Dinefwr and Carreg Cennen Castles add to the charm. Nearby, explore the ruins of Talley Abbey, The National Botanic Garden Of Wales, an array of historic castles, plus a large selection of beautiful sandy beaches and the famous coastal path all within comfortable driving distances.
