Owl Barn is a fantastic recent conversion of an old stone and slate building on an upland hill farm in Carmarthenshire, Wales. With its stylish decor and amazing views of the Brecon Beacons this romantic and quirky spacious barn will both wow and cosset you. There are 2 large double bedrooms and 2 shower rooms; The master bedroom has a super king size (6 foot) double bed and an en-suite shower room. The second bedroom has a king size double bed, a single bed and a large baby's cot. So we can accommodate up to 5 plus a baby. We do not allow sleeping overnight on the sofas. You will have ample parking spaces, a sheltered outside space and a little bit of peace and quiet. Owl Barn is usually well stocked; with basics such as teas, coffee, and other cooking needs in the well equipped kitchen, smart TV, Firestick, DVD, radio and around 15 meg Wifi, books and magazines to browse. All the mobile phone networks have pretty good coverage here. Whether your stay (minimum of 2 nights) is for family, friends or a romantic weekend get away, you could not ask for a more delightful retreat from the hustle and bustle of modern life, and you are within seconds of quiet countryside walks which can be as challenging as you wish; a stroll around the farm or on sheltered roads and footpaths, or up to the ridge near the top of Fforest, the nearest hill top of the Cambrian range at about 1300 feet. All without getting in the car. This is a stylish warm and peaceful building with underfloor heating throughout, supplied by an air source heat pump. It is well appointed, quiet and has lovely extensive countryside views and a sheltered terraced outside area to eat al fresco or just sit quietly. There is parking for numerous cars. Sleeps 5 in 2 bedrooms with a baby's cot (and a high chair). \+ short breaks (2 night minimum) \+ Romantic? Most definitely! \+ Two couples? Ideal. \+ For a group of friends? Perfect. \+ A family? Oh yes. \- Smokers? Sorry, definitely not inside the building. \- Pets? Not allowed at all, sorry. \- Hen or stag parties? Sorry, definitely not; this is a quiet place, so no noisy groups please. The main shower room is spacious and has room for a wheel chair. There is a very quiet minor road running past the barn so walks with great views and without getting your shoes dirty are possible on the doorstep too. Owl Barn has under floor central heating with oak flooring in the main, tiled floor in the kitchen, and the shower rooms. There is plenty of room in the lounge for the fold-up bed, or it can go in either bedroom. The master bedroom with en suite shower room is at the end of the barn. The second bedroom has a comfortable king size double bed, a single bed and a baby's cot. There is a communal shower room, which is spacious, and has a loo and spacious wet room type shower with no step into the shower. The large kitchen is a chef's paradise, with a breakfast bar island that seats 4. Stylish and well fitted, equipment includes; electric double oven, grill and ceramic hob with extractor fan, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, kettle, toaster, cafetiere and all the usual cooking utensils and pans etc. Superb views over the surrounding countryside. Ironing board, iron and a hairdryer are all provided. Living Room: Spacious sunny lounge with lovely outlook, 2 comfortable 3-4 seater sofas.

You are welcome to roam across the 40 acres of the farm (maps provided), which has several delightful spots for picnics, farm walks and some wonderful views. So bring your wellies, walking boots, coats and binoculars. You may see Red Kites, buzzards, sparrow hawks, starlings, swallows, wagtails, cuckoos, woodpeckers, crows, finches and probably lots of other birds and even, perhaps, hear the owl we named the barn after! The dark night skies are a treat for city dwellers; you can easily pick out the Milky Way on a clear night. Squirrels, badgers, hares, hedgehogs, sheep and cows as well as the occasional fox and feral cat too. Maybe the odd low flying fast jet or a Hercules, possibly even below where you are standing, which is always impressive, if loud! I live on the farm in the main house across the yard, but I am often away too, so you may well not see me at all. You will be given instructions, by email, about accessing the keys a couple of days prior to arrival. However, I am always available on the phone/email/WhatsApp etc. The Neighbourhood Llandovery is a pleasant market town, only 10 mins by car, along the leafy lane that leads down to the main road. Many shops, including a medium size supermarket, bakers, butchers, delis, cafes Post office, gift shops etc. A great Chinese takeaway, and the Three Horseshoes fish and chip restaurant and takeaway, both on the main street are recommended, and there are Indian and other fast food outlets. There are several good places to eat out; The Old Printing Office cafe (daytime) is my favourite, behind the shop. The Kings Head and Castle Hotels do good food, as does the Three Horse Shoes restaurant and takeaway. The town used to have over 30 pubs! But now there are approximately 4, and there a several country pubs in the Towy valley that make a good welcome and do food. I provide a detailed list in my welcome notes. Llandovery is the home of the Llandovery Drovers, a sucessful semi professional Welsh Premiership rugby side, and the centre of the small town is occupied by the famous Llandovery College, where many sporting greats have come to the notice of talent spotters, especially on the rugby field. There is a swimming pool, tennis squash and racquetball courts, bowls and croquet adjacent to the delightful Castle Fields cricket ground, next to the car park in the centre of town. A visit to the livestock market, beyond the town car park, on Tuesday mornings or most Fridays could be an interesting excursion. This lovely rural area is fantastic for the outdoors with walking, cycling, both on road and off, and we even have a great MTB trail within easy cycling range of the farm, Cwm Rhaeadr MTB forest trail; cycle over into the next valley, 30 mins, ride the trail, 45 mins /lap, dine in the Royal Oak or Towy Bridge Inns and ride back to Owl Barn at Penygaer. Phew! Or put the bike in the car to get there..... There are many other cycle and walking tracks through Crychan forest on the opposite side of our Bran valley, or ride/ walk out onto the hills of mid Wales or the Brecon Beacons, only 30 mins away. Visit; Lyn y Fan; is a delightful lake nestling in the cwm of Fan Fawr, the mountain in the view from the kitchen door; 35 mins in the car, then 40 mins walk to the lake. Magical with mystical stories about the Lady of the Lake! On to the top of Fan Fawr is a good hike, but what a that is Somerset you can see from there! Gold Mines at DolauCothi 30 mins away by car Upper Towy valley, Cilycwm, Rhandirmwyn and on to the Lynne Brianne dam, the largest of it's type in Europe, walking/cycling, very scenic 35 mins to the dam Aberglasney; world famous gardens, 40 mins National Botanic Garden of Wales, Nantgaredig 45 mins Parc y Scarlets, Llanelli, home of Scarlets rugby 60+ mins Cardiff and the Millenium Stadium 80+ mins Swansea (football and Ospreys rugby) and The Gower peninsular, beaches, walking, etc 90 mins Llandeilo; shopping and architecture 30 mins Brecon; shopping and architecture 35 mins Laugharne; home of Dylan Thomas 65 mins Brechfa forest/Abergorgech; superb MTB trails, 35 mins Dan yr Ogof show caves open to the public 40 mins Ystradfellte; amazing walks in wonderful sheltered wooded valleys with waterfalls and caves Horse riding at Cae Iago Riding Centre, Ffarmers 35 mins Llangorse Lake; sailing, canoeing etc. beyond Brecon 40 mins Rallying; many events throughout the year, on the Eppynt military range or in Crychan and Halfway forests, 25 mins The area has fantastic roads for motorcyclists, and you will notice many of them visit the town for a cuppa on their travels in summer. Golf; there's a nine hole course just beside the river Towy. 10 mins Getting Around It is best to arrive under your own steam by car, motorcycle (or even bike), although there is a train service to Llandovery which is on the Heart of Wales line, between Swansea (connects with mainline to London) and Shrewsbury. Buses run to Brecon and Carmarthen from Llandovery. There are several local taxi firms that would happily collect and return you to the farm. It's a steady climb of around 500 feet in 3 miles to the farm from Llandovery, so keep a bit in reserve to get back if you are going out for a cycle ride!

So beautiful, peaceful, comfortable. Everything we needed was provided. The kitchen is ideal for cooking. We shopped at the coop in llandovery and hunkered down for a couple days of relaxation. Lovely walks, visiting sheep, coffee on the patio. Truly wonderful. Highly recommend ##### Holly T.

We had a lovely time at Owl Barn. The barn is modern, comfortable and clean, set upon a hill accessed only via narrow, windy country lanes. We often found ourselves sharing the lane with 'escapees', some of the sheep must have preferred the anticipated taste of the neighbouring fields and managed somehow to wangle their way through the barbed wire fences to then only find themselves unable to 'break in' to the lush field opposite..we enjoyed this entertainment which only added to the experience, but drivers be aware of narrow roads with occasional woolly obstacles. A truly beautiful, remote spot, set amongst endless rolling hills with far reaching views of the Welsh countryside. Jon was the perfect discrete host, providing lots of information on the area, available when needed but otherwise leaving us alone to enjoy the seclusion. ##### Paula D. Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristin 5 Jul 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was the most stunning property of our trip -- of any of our trips, really. It truly IS as gorgeous as it appears in the photos. Made me more than half-tempted to cancel our touring plans and stay in to enjoy it. Jon was easy to work with, all directions arriving clear and on time, and the area has plenty to see and do -- if you can drag yourself away. The only negative was that there was a clothes washer (which we so appreciated, traveling with hand baggage only for a 2 week trip!) but no dryer. And the weather kept threatening to rain, which meant letting everything drip-dry inside. Many places we stay are like this, seems common in Britain, although since everything else about this place felt so luxurious, that was a slight disappointment. But I would return in a heartbeat. ##### Kristin Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sue M. 3 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful stay Gorgeous property, really relaxing Enjoyed every minute, would love to come back again. ##### Sue M.

It was exactly as described. Outstanding views across the valley looking out onto Brecon Beacon landscape. The bedrooms were very comfortable King size beds. Modern bathrooms. Well equipped kitchen with ‘leftover cooking staples’ from previous guests( a bonus!). Peaceful surroundings even when the neighbouring cottage was also occupied. One small negative was that some of the cutlery had not been cleaned well from previous users, easily fixed by washing up ourselves. Also the dishwasher malfunctioned so I recommend that you hand wash. The suggestions of where to eat were great. I would definitely come here again. Highly recommended! ##### Alison G.

It was modern, very clean and well equipped with wonderful views from the lounge and kitchen. We would remmend the walk up to Llyn Y Fan and a walk around Llandeilo with a stop at the Ginhaus. Jon was quick to reply to messages and supplied us with plenty of information about the cottage and local area before we arrived and while we were there. Thank you for a lovely stay. ##### Shirley G.

As sport enthusiasts, we enjoyed the walk / cycle / run back up the road from Llandovery. Property was well equipped and furnished to a high standard. Would recommend as a place to stay. ##### Darren D.

Jon the owner was very helpful and attentive, recommended to stay 👍 ##### Mark C.

It won't be for all as about 10 minutes down a single track road to the nearest town of Llandovery but it's only about 80 mins from the costs of Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire! Those coast lines are heavenly. The cottage is stunning with its modern family kitchen, large living room and dining rooms, 2 large bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It's everything you need to escape (Tesco and Asda deliver here). Loved our 5 days and would happily go back - Jon the owner, is a too bloke and very helpful. ##### Rumit P.

Fijne zitkamer en grote keuken. Uitzicht voorkant prachtig, uitzicht achterkant vanaf terras op hele rommelige schuur. Wij misten wat praktische dingen zoals haken voor jassen en handdoeken en een droge plek om vieze wandelschoenen neer te zetten. De eigenaar is vriendelijk, goed bereikbaar en zeer behulpzaam. Het huisje is geschakeld wat wij vooraf niet wisten. Overigens weinig tot geen last van buren gehad. Auto is absoluut noodzakelijk! ##### Dennis S.

Difficult to know where to begin - what a magical experience it was staying here. Almost reluctant to tell people, we want to keep it to ourselves! The barn is exquisite, beautifully converted and everything to a very high standard. Well appointed throughout, very comfortable and warm. The location is amazing, the perfect place to escape from the daily grind. No traffic, no noise, its so peaceful you could hear a pin drop at night. well placed for trips to the west and south coast beaches. Friendly and helpful hosts. All is all a magical experience , the most relaxing holiday we have had for many years. We will return!! G & R ##### gareth j.

The Barn was so comfortable, warm, relaxing and it was appointed to the highest standard. The best self catering accommodation we have ever had. ##### Mary G. Stayed 4 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charlie R. 18 Apr 2019 #### Stunning barn in a peaceful location Had a wonderful 4 days at Owl Barn. I agree with all the previous reviews. Beautifully designed and appointed. Wonderfully fresh, clean and with everything you could need. Genuinely 5 out of 5. The only thing we could improve would be teaspoons - there were only 4 in the house. That’s how good the place is, as that’s the only thing we had to moan about!! If it’s available - then do book a stay at Owl Barn! ##### Charlie R. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Snehal S. 15 Aug 2018 #### Perfect A lovely, modern barn with all the facilities you will need set in a beautiful and quiet location. We were able to use the barn as a base and explore the Pembrokeshire coast and Breacon Beacons, all relatively easily accessible. Thanks to Jon for providing all the info we could have needed. ##### Snehal S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daryl G. 27 Jun 2018 #### Far reaching views and impeccable design Loved the barn.
