"A lovely stay at Taf Cottage."
A great cottage with the added bonus of a hot tub and log burner for relaxing evenings after long walks. Great location to explore. Thank you.
-
"My family had a lovely stay at Taf Cottage in a lovely part of Wales."
The cottage was cosy with a lovely hot tub and logs were provided for the fire which we enjoyed on a few chilly nights. There is a swimming pool at the owners house for a charge per person which was well worth it lovely and warm and private for your party. We didn't want to leave but hope to return again. Lovely meeting Muriel an amazing person who keeps the whole complex to a high standard and looks after her guests.

"Muriel was a five star hostess, everything was catered for and any issues were dealt with very quickly."
The cottage was lovely, comfortable and well equipped, private garden with the hot tub was fantastic. We throughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely book again.
-
"Such a lovely cottage in a beautiful setting."
So peaceful so if you are looking to get away from everything for a few days taf cottage is perfect. Easy to get to the coast for the day and all of the lovely places that West wales has to offer. The gorgeous hot tub was the best way to end the day
-
"Muriel was a friendly and helpful host who made us feel welcomed from arrival."
The cottage had all you needed for a holiday cottage, was comfortable and spotless. It was very private and quiet even though there are other cottages adjacent. It was lovely to sit in the hot tub and enjoy the peaceful countryside. The cottage was a great base for exploring the area, only around 15 minutes from either Llandeilo or Camarthen which had plenty to offer. Diolch o galon Muriel am bopeth.

"Muriel was a very friendly and helpful host."
The cottage had the bare basics that we required as a base to sleep, whilst spending the days out exploring. The hot tub was nice. The WiFi didn’t work for the first 2 days but this was rectified on the second night. The cottage is in a lovely area of Wales, so it was beautifully quiet.
-
"Muriel was such a warm and welcoming host."
The cottage was set up so neatly for a nice, warm, cosy weekend. The cottage is set in a picturesque field with no distractions and loud noises around- only chirpy birds and the odd call from grazing sheep. We really enjoyed lazing in the hot tub on our second day when it was too cold and rainy to venture outside. Muriel had left behind some logs and so we were able to light up a fire at night...not something we are used to but was a novel experience. Overall we enjoyed our stay deeply! It was a much needed break from the hustle of the city and we are back feeling rejuvenated. We will definitely make plans to visit again. Thank you Muriel for your warmth and kindness.

"Great location for walking."
The cottage was comfortable and clean. The pillows on the beds were amazing. I slept better than at home! My only complaint is that the pictures showed a bath but there was only showers. This was a bit difficult as my autistic child hates showers. Otherwise great stay.
-
"Our hostess was pleasant and helpful (and patient), especially when I had a problem with the heating."
The cottage was ideal for 5 of us (6 would fit & live easily in it). Beds were comfortable. Everything was clean. The hot tub was a bonus!! A good base for investigating the area which has some lovely drives (except the 2 miles of farm track necessary to reach the cottage). with houses & gardens to visit within easy reach. LLandeilo is probably charming when the weather's fine!!!
-
"This was our 3rd time visiting Uptonhall cottages we have stayed in different cottages each time and they have all been beautiful."
. Taf was comfy clean and as per usual muriel Ian and kevin were amazing hosts. It's so relaxing in the hot tub looking at the beautiful views already planning our next visit. Can't recommend enough
-
"The cottage lived upto expectations."
It is a lovely cottage which was clean and well maintained. It was a really great place to spend a few days. The area was very quiet when we stayed, which we really enjoyed. The owners were great when we made a request of more towels. I would recommend the cottage to anyone.
-
"Exactly what we needed for a 2 night stay."
Very comfortable and roomy. Fab hot tub.
-
"A second visit to celebrate my 70th."
Beautiful location. Peaceful...(till we got there) We had such a relaxing time and were lovely and warm . I need a walker to get about and the cottage is fully accessible, though a wheelchair might have a bit of a problem cos of some tight corners....please check. I think I mentioned last time that , being picky, I felt the pillows were a bit thin.....and this time, brand new lovely bouncy pillows. Really comfy beds and sofa. Great warm welcome.Thank you. One of our party said they wanted a bigger frying pan....but we are little piggies with our trotters in the trough much of the time....so you will probably find it all adequate. Definitely recommend Taf Cottage. Thank you for a lovely stay.
-
"We had a great time at Taf cottage despite some stormy weather ."
Muriel was a great host very friendly and helpful, her family were welcoming also over the Christmas period. We can certainly recommend Taf cottage as a place to stay and explore the surrounding areas.
-
"Beautiful area."
....lovely place. Very comfortable. We had a fab time. If I wanted to be picky I would say the pillows were a bit tired but actually considering that everything was so lovely and how comfy the beds are and the sofas ,I feel I shouldn't have said that. Very accessible for disabled, though possibly bit narrow for wheelchair and outside bit slippy for crutches. My walker was easy to get around the place. We were all of us, very happy indeed. Lovely walks...dip in the hot tub....lots of space, accessible bathrooms. Thank you.
-
"Wonderful. A haven from busy lives."
Set in beautiful countryside, Taf Cottage has all you need for a wonderful stay. The hot tub and log burner make it just perfect. The kitchen is fully equipped. We had a fantastic week and this was our second visit to this cottage and our third to Upton Hall Cottages!
-
"When we arrived at the cottage the key was already in the door for us."
The children changed into swimming costumes straight away and went into the hot tub. The cottage was clean and well maintained and with a well equipped kitchen. Our bed was lovely and comfortable. The shower was hot and powerful. The owner came twice a day to check the levels in the hot tub but she was very discreet, our dogs didn’t even notice her. Will definitely return. Diolch Muriel x

"We loved our stay at Taf Cottage and wouldn't hesitate to return."
The property was super clean and kitchen well appointed. Any issues were dealt with immediately by the friendly and informative host. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub surrounded by peace and quiet of nature.
-
"We really enjoyed our stay at Taf Cottage."
Muriel was lovely and also very helpful. It was so peaceful there . The bed was blissfully comfortable. Wish we could have stayed for two weeks. Would definitely recommend.

"Wow, an absolutely wonderful location, fantastic accommodation and Muriel ( together with her lovely family) our wonderful, helpful host."
From the start we were made to feel at home and nothing too much trouble. The accommodation (Taf Cottage) was lovely and clean, spacious and so homely. The bed was really comfortable and a good size. The showers really lovely.and easy to use. The kitchen is really well equippedeasy to use and everything lovely and clean, as if new. The lounge is very cosy, spacious providing free internet , Outside, a hot tub which is checked every morning to a BBQ , table and chairs and absolutely wonderful stunning views, no light pollution and REALLY quite, day and night. All in all an absolute gem, a fantastic holiday, great location and fabulous host. Unfortunately I have to mention that this holiday was brill and I have no hesitation RECOMMENDING THIS HOLIDAY to our families and friends THANK YOU..

"Lovely cottage in great location."
Attentive and friendly owner. A few problems with the hot tub but owner happy to come and sort it out.
-
"This has become our second home."
Fourth year at Upton Hall and it’s still the best holiday cottage we have had. There is nothing to fault with the cottage, it was immaculate on arrival and catered for all our needs. Hot tub was such a treat. What can I say about the host- Muriel is made for being a host. Nothing is too much trouble, she is knowledgeable about the area, and wants to make sure that you have the best holiday. And that we did. We will be back.
-
"Another lovely stay at Taff Cottage."
Muriel is a friendly, welcoming host who is onsite. Even though the weather was
Great having you back with us so soon. I will sort the weather out for you by next time. Thankyou for leaving the cottage clean snd tidy Property Owner

"Very comfortable and cozy cottage."
Brilliant hot tub...
-
"A wonderful place to stay, quiet , relaxing just the place to recharge your batteries."
Close enough to beaches and woodland walks for the dogs. Hot tub was a loveky addition after a long drive down,and to stargaze at night. Comfy beds & sofas everything to hand in the kitchen. We loved it the dogs loved it. Muriel was so welcoming its why we keep going back. That was our 3rd stay and we will be back.
-
"A lovely cottage in a beautiful rural place."
-

Lovely countryside walks and loads of interesting places nearby. Excellent hosts who took really good care of us.

"We had a lovely time at Taf Cottage!"
Murial was a great host and was on call whenever we had questions. Lovely quiet cottages so perfect for a relaxing weekend away. Would definitely look to return / recommend to friends and family :) Thanks so much.
-
"Superb! I took my mum away for the week, we had a wonderful time relaxing, walking, and the hot tub was a welcome treat."
The cottage is situated amongst quiet surroundings, extremely homely and comfortable and has all the essentials you need - the log burner was was just perfect, especially when it snowed! The host was extremely welcoming and helpful, such a lovely lady. I would definitely recommend this cottage to those looking for a quiet relaxing break.
-
"My only criticism is that the hot tub could be seen from the side."
Providing some screening would make it perfect. Otherwise I would highly recommend taf cottage. Clean, spacious and surrounded by nature. Absolutely beautiful.
-
"We had a great stay."
The host Muriel was amazing, cottage qas clean, lovely and warm and the jacuzzi was just bliss. Would def recommend staying if you are in that area.
-
"Beautiful cottage, surroundings and nothing too much trouble for Muriel the lovely owner."
Thankyou so much!
-
"What a fabulous welcome we had at Taf Cottage."
Muriel was available and helpful and came to check we had settled in OK. The cottage was so comfortable and well equipped. There was plenty of room for us and we made good use of the hot tub despite the below freezing temperatures. We will book again.
-
"This place is so beautiful and if you want to switch off from everything then it's perfect to book this place."
There's parking and it's quite easy to find. The place is so clean and it's dog friendly. The owners are really helpful, nice and friendly. I'll definitely be going back again.
-

Fantastic location. Muriel and Ian were fabulous hosts, nothing was too much trouble. Will defo be returning next time we need to visit family in Llandeilo. 11 out of 10 from us.

"Great place and very relaxing so lucky to have found it!"

"Taf cottage has a great feel to it and lovely rural outlook."
Patio, Hot Tub and BBQ where used alot and helped make our stay. The fenced garden worked really well being secure for our dog . Superb location between the mountains and the coast with a good local pub in Brechfa as well as great mountain biking and forest walks. Muriel the owner was very helpful and available if required. We really enjoyed our 10 day stay.
-
"We had a wonderful break - the cottage is fabulous."
Can't wait to book with you again.

Enjoyed our stay.
-
"Fantastic place to stay!"
Second time staying as a group and we love it. Chilled place with lovely views, not far from a few pubs. Thanks to Muriel for being so welcoming
-
"We had a lovely week at Taf cottage, Muriel was very welcoming & informative about the local area & nothing was too much trouble."
The cottage was spotlessly clean with comfortable beds/sofas. Only tiny criticism- the dining table was a bit tight for 6 people. We all enjoyed the hot tub. Good secure garden for dogs. Lots to do in the area within a short drive, lovely walks. Will certainly return. Thankyou.
-
"Superb cottage with a lovely feel to it in a beautiful location."
The hot tub was a real hit with the whole family and although the location is peaceful and tranquil, it is still easy to get to many places to visit historic sites, towns, more beautiful Welsh countryside and beaches. Definitely hope to return one day.
-
"Lovely stay at Taf cottage with the extended family."
Everything was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped (under counter fridge with ice box a little small but manageable) and the hot tub was excellent. There’s a new walk-in shower in the main bathroom (replaced the bath in photos) which was a nice surprise and not an issue as we’d brought a baby bath with us. Muriel was very welcoming, kindly leaving us some wine and an Easter egg on arrival and was very helpful during our stay, with recommendations of places to visit and walks with the dog. We would recommend Brechfa forest walks, although the roads to the Keeper’s car park are very narrow! Aberglasney gardens are well worth a visit and the National Botanical gardens were also good, providing a week long ticket so you could revisit. The cottage is situated about 8 minutes from the A40, in peaceful countryside, so would recommend bringing key food supplies with you when you arrive. We found a good range of supermarkets in Carmarthen about 20 mins away. Lovely restful break with easy access to some stunning beaches about 30 mins away.
-
"Lovely comfy cottage Beautiful hot tub Very friendly and accommodating host"
-
"Beautiful location and a beautiful property."
Muriel, the owner, was lovely and made sure we had everything we needed. We made full use of the hot tub! Would highly recommend and look forward to staying again in the future
-

"Lovely cottage and stay"
-
"Just returned after the most perfect Christmas stay with family."
The cottage was immaculately clean and every last thing you can think of was provided. A perfect home from home in a beautiful setting. Muriel was so accommodating and was always on hand for anything you needed. Beds were very comfortable the shower was heaven!! And the hot tub was a beautiful added extra in the peaceful scenic countryside. Absolutely loved our stay and our children were sad to have to leave! Will definitely be returning :o)
-
"Peaceful get away."
You really are in the countryside, feels like middle of nowhere but a 15 min drive down the lanes takes you to a pub. Cottage is on a small farm, no road noise or light pollution. You share a courtyard with a few other rentals but we didn't see anyone else and the whole location is very quiet and relaxing. Lucky enough to have clear night for star gazing from the hot tub. Comfortable cottage and well equipped. Friendly owner who texted us to make sure we were all OK! One downside is the hot tub is on view of farm buildings, which were in use in the day. Would benefit from a screen or little fence. We had a relaxing and peaceful stay. Would recommend and would return.
-
"From start to finish, a really warm welcome."
The cottage was cozy, spotlessly clean and all the amenities you could want. The kitchen was fully equipped and everything thought of. The showers were lovely and good pressure etc. the hot tub was well maintained and in an idyllic location. Muriel was a warm and welcoming host and nothing was too much trouble. A proper home from home, even the recommendation of the family pub down the road for Sunday lunch! This was the icing the cake for us for our return journey home. We will be booking again.❤️
-
"Everything that one needs for a relaxing holiday, with beautiful surroundings."
Small drive into Carmarthen which has everything for the family. Beautiful places to visit in surrounding area. Taf Cottage had everything we needed for us, our small child and dogs. The owners were very accommodating, friendly and helpful, Nothing was to much to ask. Would defiantly recommend to anyone who would like to visit wales.
-
"We booked Taf cottage for a girly 40th birthday get together, we had easy check in and was made to feel very welcome by Muriel."
The cottage is so peaceful, its spacious and very clean with everything you need with the added bonus of a private hot tub. There isn't a pub or restaurant within walking distance but we knew this before we booked so didnt bother us to drive ( it's only 5-10 mins) and also only a short drive into Camarthen town. We loved every minute of our stay and will definitely return in the future
-
"We had a wonderful stay at Taf cottage, the cottage was very clean, had everything you needed and very relaxing, great to get away from everyday life."
Hot tub was amazing and Muriel the owner was very friendly and helpful, we enjoyed it so much we have already booked again for next year.
-
"The property owner was fantastic!"
Greeted us when we arrived, a bottle of wine was left for the adults, and juice and sweets left for the kids. Was such a kind gesture ! She checked on us daily to make sure everything was ok. The property was stunning! We would love to come back at some point, the views were amazing. The beds were also comfy. If you are thinking of booking this place, absolutely do it. We came all the way from Devon & would happily return. Thank you for a fantastic holiday!
-
"A great cottage with fabulous hot tub."
The place was clean and well looked after, Muriel was very welcoming and willing to help. The cottage is quite remote and a great get away! The night sky is wonderfully dark for star gazing.
-
"Taf cottage exceeded our expectations, Muriel the host is so nice and nothing is to much trouble."
The cottage is spacious and has everything you need, lovely private garden with great views and a big hot tub to relax in. A beautiful quiet cottage to getaway from everyday life, will be back again next year
-
"Our second time at the cottage, we absolutely love it there!"
So peaceful and relaxing, Muriel (host) is so lovely and cannot do enough for you. We will definitely be returning for a third visit next year xx
-
"Great holiday in a little gem of a place,Mrs Howells is a lovely woman and guided us to where to sight see."
-
"This place is for people who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city."
A wonderful location blended in with the Welsh nature, a charming cottage with comfortable furnishings giving the possibility of complete relaxation at a high level. We should also mention the charming owners of the property who are graceful and discreet with all help and advice. Of course, we highly recommend this place.
-
"The cottage is located on a beautiful Welsh rural estate set in unspoilt countryside."
We found the cottage easily following the directions supplied with the information. We were met by Muriel, who was a wonderful helpful hostess, supplying us with a vast knowledge of the local area. The cottage was clean and very comfortable and equipped with all essentials for our stay. Our son is in a wheelchair and we found the single level living accessible. The bonus of having a hot tub was a real treat. We would highly recommend this location for a holiday, and aim to return.
-
"The directions were a bit hard to follow but was able to call owner & she helped us get there"
-
"Very quiet and secluded."
Lots of birdlife visiting the grounds and gardens. Dogs well catered for and welcome
-
"The owner was very friendly and went out of her way to help us ."
-
"We are a family of five with three young boys who enjoyed an incredible weekend in a beautiful area at this fantastic location."
We received a very warm welcome from our hosts and found the accommodation suited us perfectly, staying in a converted farm building that was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. We were able to sit outside in the mornings looking out over the countryside, go for walks to see the forest and the river nearby, and in the evenings, stargazing from the warmth of the hot tubs was a real highlight we all enjoyed. I would recommend staying at this location and we will be rebooking to visit at another date, hopefully soon.
-
"Great location and very homely feeling!"
Suck nice people and very relaxed. You feel like nobody else is around you it’s very private.
-
"Fantastic locations for walking."
The cottage was ideal for us with the dog. Hot tub was bliss. Would definitely go back. Thanks for a great break.
-
"Great little place away from it all."
The selling point I thought would be the hot tub, but it was the location being so secluded. Would definitely go back!
-
"Taf Cottage is an ideal spot to explore this part of Wales."
It is set in a very rural location, down quiet country lanes, but is only a couple of minutes drive from the A40. There is a great deal to see and do in the area and we enjoyed some gloriously sunny days too. The cottage itself is warm and cosy. The heating is easy to control and it has a log-burner as well. It is well equipped and very clean. We found the beds and sofas really comfortable and the private hot tub is lovely. Daisy loved watching the sheep from the safety of the enclosed garden. The owners were on hand to give us a very warm welcome and couldn't have been more friendly, nothing was too much trouble. We would happily return here again.
-
"A really damp smell in the bathroom ,due to ill fitting(leaking) shower screen."
Somuch so that all of our belongings still have a musty smell to them. Also there were so many mosquitoes indoors ( which might have been caused by the damp) we got bit so many times that by the Tuesday night we’d made our minds up that we would go home.The bad weather coming in was also contributory but not the prime reason as we understand the weather cannot be guaranteed! The towels were starting to smell (despite having taken our own for the hot tub) as we were not given any hand towels. The lane approaching the cottage was very narrow and we were told that not much traffic used it but on lots of occasions we were forced to reverse(vehicles would continue to push at us, forcing us back)We should have been warned of this. In all, we were very disappointed.We paid £463.00 for Friday night -Wednesday morning so not a very good deal!
It was most disappointing and indeed disheartening to read your negative review regarding your stay at Taf cottage, which incidentally is completely at odds with other guests reviews. We do try and achieve the highest standards and best attention to our guests needs and it is a shame that you did not mention the shower screen issue during your stay as we could have pointed out that it must be closed with the flexible seal facing inwards to prevent seepage onto the bathroom floor. Living in the heart of the quiet countryside it is inevitable that one will encounter local wildlife around the cottages including badgers, foxes, bats, owls, field mice and a few midges at certain times of the year but neither we nor other guests have found them to be an issue. Unfortunately we can not control their movements any more than the prevailing weather nor those odd inconsiderate drivers you apparently encountered on your travels along the country lanes. It is unfortunate that all those things occurred to you during your short stay but honestly it is not a true reflection of the reality of country living particularly during the periods of glorious weather we have had this year. If you had not cut short your stay as you had already planned to do since arriving perhaps those couple of extra fine days following your departure may have changed your view. Property Owner

"Fabulous place and Muriel the owner is so lovely."
Can't recommend this place enough. Had an amazing time there. Will definitely be going back.
-
"Lovely , quiet peaceful place."
-
"We stayed here as 3 friends."
This cottage was very clean, cosey and had all the utensils and facilities we needed. It has a fully functioning jacuzzi and a lovely fireplace. The cottage is located in the heart of the countryside so you get a feeling of relaxation and seclusion however there is a large supermarket nearby where we could purchase groceries. We were able to drive to Brecon Beacons national park and Pembrokeshire Coast (about an hour away each). The owner of the cottage was extremely welcoming, helpful and friendly. We cannot wait to be back here again in future.
-
"We stayed at Taf Cottage with 2 small dogs and we must say it was perfect despite the odd rainy day!"
We made good use of the hot tub which was cleaned every day too. The whole cottage was spotless on arrival and it was very spacious and exactly as it is in the photographs on the Sykes website. Muriel and Ian, the owners, were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. We would highly recommend any of the cottages at Upton Hall, we enjoyed it so much we have booked to return at Christmas!
-
"We arrived at the cottage and had a lovely greeting from the owner."
They left a hamper for us thinking of us adults and our children. It was very relaxing. The owners has really thought about what you needed when your on self catering holiday. The kitchen was not lacking on utensils,pots and pans etc which has been an issue on our previous holiday. The owner was very helpful with information on where to go that catered for families and pet friendly It was the most relaxing holiday I've been on for years.
-
"Absolutely brilliant cottage and what a lovely welcome."
Quiet, beautiful and spacious. Highly recommended.
-
"Myself and my three Children had a wonderful stay."
Muriel was so welcoming and accomodating. The location was beautiful, so peaceful and private. The Cottage itself was clean and warm. My Children loved the hot tub. I would highly recommend.
-
"A lovely cottage in a peaceful location."
Perfect for a group of friends or family. The hot tub really is an added bonus! Would definitely return.
-
"Had a fantastic week in Taf cottage."
Was so nice to get away. The pubs were open to eat outside and felt safe and comfortable. Lots of places to explore nearby including Llandeilo and the national trust. The children loved Pembrey county park with the bikes, beach and tobaggons. The hot tub spa was nice and relaxing to go back to at the end of the day and it’s own private back garden. The kitchen has everything apart from a freezer as only a box top freezer which just about fits in 1 box of ice cream. Muriel,who owns the cottage, very friendly and found places to visit and eat for us.
-
"This cottage was everything we expected."
We had a lovely welcoming in a stunning part of Wales. Everything we needed in the kitchen, games to play, plenty of wood for the fire and a fabulous Hot Tub to sit in and star gaze. There is very little light pollution so it was brilliant if you like to look for stars. We would definitely return.
-
"We loved being out in the countryside and having luxury comforts like the hot tub and fire."
The owner was very responsive and accomodating to us. We'd like to visit again!
-
"Very relaxing stay at Taf Cottsge & would definitely return."
The cottage had everything we needed with the added bonus of a hot tub. Muriel was a very friendly informative owner and nothing was too much trouble for her.
-
"Our host Muriel did everything possible to make our stay the best it could be!"
The cottage was spacious with a woodburning stove that was very easy to light and made the cottage very cosy.We used the hot tub even in the rain,so relaxing,especially with a glass of wine in hand! The cottage is situated between Carmarthen and Llandeilo giving places to explore. We look forward to planning out next visit !
-
"Taf cottage was picturesque and very well catered for."
Muriel and her husband were very welcoming and informative regarding local places to visit. It was a relaxing weekend for all the family. The hot tub and the wood burning stove are a wonderful addition to the cottage. I highly recommend upton cottages for a peaceful break away.
-
"Set in beautiful farmland, this is an extremely tranquil place, perfect for sitting back, popping a cork and relaxing in the hot tub."
The family who own the cottages are on hand for any issues, but not in your face or overbearing. They were fantastic hosts, friendly and took time to introduce our younger kids to their family and pets. Some wonderful countryside ancient, castles and vast clean beaches for the kids to run around on. Highly recommend a visit. Well done to Muriel and Kenny (and family) for running such a lovely place!
-
"Was a beautiful holiday cottage, slept 6 with lots of space."
the owners were lovely and really welcoming to me and my 6 year old. couldn't recommend enough!
