"Great house for a large group."
Having a “kids” sitting room and ample garden meant that kids had loads of space and we had lots of fun playing hide and seek. The house is well equipped with everything you would need and although remote it was easy to get out and about to explore the Welsh countryside.

"Beautiful House."
Lovely and peaceful clean and well kept. Plenty of seating area’s. massive fully enclosed garden safe for our two fur babies. Very close to Llandovery which has most things you will need. I’d say do a shop before you arrive if you are wanting a big shop. Local chippy is lovely and pubs very dog friendly. Lovely onsite cat too really friendly (we did give him/her some milk and chicken) owners are great very helpful and friendly too lovely welcome basket of goodies( Thank you ) you can hear the train going past but not loud and we stayed in front bedroom. Plenty of storage space for your belongings. Hot Tub was great they had it ready for our arrival which was welcome we would definitely book this again great stay x

"Had a lovely time at Tirallen, the house and grounds were gorgeous and plenty big enough for our group of 7 adults and 2 children."
We loved the grounds and made the most of the hot tub, BBQ and the fire pit area. The children loved the friendly on site cat who was extremely partial to a plate of milk and some cat treats. Added bonus that some of our group got to fish in the river at the end of the lane and even caught some trout. The house was extremely well equipped and we appreciated our welcome pack. Communication with Catrin, the owner was excellent.

"Great communication from the owner, welcome pack left on kitchen table was lovely."
The property has a charm about it, the furnishings give an insight into its past, a working farm. Local culture is displayed in the locked show cases, rugby balls cricket memorabilia and programmes from local shows (eisteddford). Six adults and two children spent a week relaxing here, using every room the hot tub was brilliant and the walks around the grounds were picturesque and productive. Lots of apples and pears as well as blackberries were foraged and eaten in pies made in the kitchen. The local cat befriended the girls and drank lots of milk! The local trains go past quickly and cause no problem with noise at all, occasionally a military plane or helicopter flew over which was a pleasant experience and local wildlife was abundant. Red kites, buzzards predominantly in the sky above and a fox could be heard in the evenings, the river has trout in it, as proved by a local fly fishermen. We really didn’t want to leave, and this was our 13th Sykes booking, we intend to be back to check out the local gold mine! Book early, we left it too late. Thanks again for a wonderful week.

"8 of us stayed over the weekend at Tirallen and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!"
There’s plenty room in the house for all and a lovely garden and hot tub, which the owner kindly topped up for us midway through our stay. Fully equipped kitchen, lovely bedrooms, and enough bathrooms to never have a queue. Really good communication with the hosts and a very friendly cat on site, loved our stay and would definitely come back again!

"We loved the home, one of the best well equipped homes we have stayed in."
... The owner was lovely, very helpful, lovely bottle of fizz and a card ....left for a Birthday. Lovely location, plenty of room for 10 people, clean and tidy, lovely bathrooms and nice décor... Lovely Bathrooms, very clean Be aware it is on a quiet track but it is a working farm area, the farmers were still out until 1am, kept the whole house and a baby awake, which was not fun at all.... it was very loud..so very tired people the next day..... Few things to improve, better quality bed in the pink room, it dips in the middle, and creaks a lot, it was a very poor mattress, we had to used a single mattress and put on the floor, for a higher end home, better beds please ( I am very bed fussy) they should be the best part of the house. Down stairs toilet doesn't lock and doors on cupboard are a bit tatty, 1 towel each isn't enough, for ladies, we need too, for hair and body, never had that before you always get a body and hair towel, No towels for hot tub either...
Thanks very much for your review Claire! Always useful to receive constructive criticism, let us address your concerns… It is not a working farm, the contractors only bring the silage in from the surrounding fields twice a year….unfortunate it was during your stay, most guests love to see the tractors in action! They did have to work late once due to the restricted good weather & to avoid the trains in order to cross the track safely, but you were given a heads up! First we’ve heard on the mattress….will look into it! Downstairs toilet does lock. Previous guests flooded the sink, hence the cupboards…rest assured we will be looking to replace after the busy Summer season. Shame you didn’t mention you’d like more towels during your stay….this would have been no problem at all! 1 bath sheet per person is normally sufficient for our guests but we would have been happy to provide you with more. We are glad everything else was to your liking. Best wishes.x Property Owner

"Family group of 8 adults, 2 children and 1 baby and 3 dogs."
Lovely stay at this property, plenty of facilities for everyone. Adults and older children made full use of the hot tub, even in the rain!!! Dogs loved the size of the garden, although not fully secure; the property was not close enough to roads to cause problems. Fantastic host who was available if needed. Would recommend to large groups.
Thanks very much for your feedback Wendy. Whole garden area is now fully secure! Property Owner

"Eight adults, 2 teenagers and one dog stayed for three nights in November."
The house is so impressive but also incredibly cosy. The communication with Catrin was so easy and she made sure we had everything we needed. The welcome basket was also a lovely addition. Thank you so much! We had a great time x

"Absolutely amazing!"
Perfect everything! Wonderful host
-
"Great property everything we needed."
Being where it is gives you the solitude that we wanted. The dog loved being able to run round all day and we didn’t have to worry about cars and other people spoiling his fun. At the end of the day, it was great to unwind and relax in the hot tub watching the night sky. Great place to stay and hope to get back there soon.

"A group of 6 adults, 3 children and 2 large dogs stayed here for a week and we loved it!"
It is a little difficult to find with Sat Nav or Goggle maps so would definitely recommend using what 3 words app which takes you up to the front door! The host Caitlin and her family were amazing. Attentive and welcoming without being too much. Any questions we had were answered promptly. The grounds of the house are amazing! Our 3 children (and dogs) loved exploring all its nook and crannies! We would definitely recommend staying here!

"The house was very spacious and was able to accommodate all of us well enough."
This is a good place for gatherings of large groups of family members. It has four WC facilities, including two shower rooms, one of which is a bathtub. We loved using the hot tubs, and the host regularly checks the water quality. The communication with the host was excellent. very peaceful atmosphere here, surrounded by a former farm. There is a large orchard with a variety of apples and pears that can be picked.

"Had a lovely week at this property would highly recommend, the property is not overlooked so peaceful and quiet perfect to unwind and relax."
-
"Beautiful property well appointed and lots of thoughtful touches."
We had a lovely family weekend in this delightful house. Absolutely spotless, lovely kitchen and very nice hosts. We’d definitely recommend and we expect to return to it as we all loved the house.

"Really enjoyable week."
The house is excellent, a good size and in a peaceful, pleasant setting. Comfortable beds which makes a pleasant change from some holiday homes. Owners were welcoming and quick to respond to any queries. Would happily stay again.

"Our stay here at Tirallen was for business."
Our company was involved with the Urdd Eisteddfod 2023. Our crew of 4+ builders were very comfortable staying here. Catrin the owner is very efficient and helpful; nothing was ever too much, and she looked after our crew very well. Beautiful house and was very clean and tidy, if we ever return to this area again, I will most definitely keep Tirallen in mind. Thanks again Catrin for everything, from NeptunusUK

The property
Llangadog 3.6 miles.
Resting on the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park in Llanwrda near Llangadog, Carmarthenshire is the charming Tirallen.
This wonderful holiday home which was once a working Dairy Farm benefits from an enclosed, expansive wrap-around garden with lawn and hot tub, a fantastic location in the Welsh countryside and five well-appointed bedrooms all boasting grand, high ceilings; a picturesque setting for families or friends to gather in South Wales.
Cross the threshold and head straight into the fully-equipped kitchen where you can rustle up meals for the whole family with the help of the range cooker and large fridge/freezer.
Gather the family in the dining room, where seating for everyone allows you to savour the meal as a group while reminiscing on the cherished memories you have created so far.
As the evening draws to a close, choose from two sitting rooms to snuggle up in one of which boasts a soothing oil burning stove where you can warm your feet after a long day of exploring.
Alternatively, watch on as the stars fill the sky from the bubbling hot tub before climbing the stairs to wash off the day in either the bathroom or shower room ahead of sloping off to sleep in one of five bedrooms.
Choose from two king-sizes, two doubles and a twin.
If you can tear yourself away from this idyllic dwelling, pay a visit to the Y Castell, Llangadog to enjoy a well-earned break from the kitchen with delicious pub food or venture to Llansadwrn to stop off at the Sexton Arms for a drink before picking up all the essentials at local stores.
There is a wealth of history woven throughout the surrounding countryside; immerse yourself in the past at Talley Abbey, Dryslwyn Castle, the 12th-century Dinefwr Castle or the National Trust sites of Paxton’s Tower and Dinefwr nature reserve which encapsulated the 17th-century, beautiful Newton House.
Outdoor enthusiasts will be in their element thanks to the nearby Brecon Beacons National Park which offers endless opportunities for breath-taking walks through wild moorlands and luscious hills as well as chances to try your hand at fishing, horse riding, rock climbing and abseiling and even water sports!
Experience all this and more at Tirallen.
