Tirallen in Llangadog | Must-See Carmarthenshire Hot Tub Cottage

About Tirallen

Tirallen is a massive five-bedroom farmhouse in Carmarthenshire, sitting right on the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park. This former dairy farm has been beautifully renovated while keeping its Welsh character. It's perfectly positioned - feels totally secluded but you're only minutes from main roads and local amenities.

The grounds are fantastic. There's a massive wrap-around garden that's mostly enclosed (perfect for dogs who like to explore). You can walk down to the River Towy for some fishing or just enjoy the orchard with apple and pear trees ripe for picking. Stargazing from the hot tub is something guests rave about - nothing beats soaking with a glass of fizz while watching the night sky in complete privacy.

The accommodation is seriously spacious. Two king-size bedrooms, two doubles and one twin room comfortably sleep ten people. There's a main bathroom with bath and walk-in shower, a separate shower room, plus two additional WCs. Two separate lounges mean kids can watch TV while adults enjoy peace with a book - or vice versa after too much family time!

Explore the stunning Brecon Beacons National Park (0 miles, you're right on it!), visit the National Botanic Garden of Wales (15 miles, 25 minutes), discover the charming market town of Llandeilo (8 miles, 15 minutes), or head to Carreg Cennen Castle (12 miles, 22 minutes) for spectacular views.

Tirallen is perfect for big family gatherings or friend reunions. The hot tub, fire pit, BBQ and massive garden create the ultimate group holiday spot. Even the resident farm cat might join your party if you offer some milk!

Tirallen Reviews

We had a wonderful stay in this gorgeous property. The house, gardens and the location surpassed our expectations. Communication from Catrin was excellent she answered our queries quickly before we arrived and stayed in touch throughout the stay. The welcome basket with local goodies was a lovely touch. We all enjoyed the walk to the beautiful river at the end of the road and the lovely hot tub afterwards. Thank you also for allowing us to fish from your land. The house was super comfortable and wellequipped, with was plenty of space for 10 of us. The teens loved the table football and the mini pool table. The surroundings are stunning and theres lots to do. The little town of llandovery nearby is lovely. The whole stay was wonderful and wed love to return. Thoroughly recommend!! Thank you Catrin and family.

We had a lovely week in Tirallen, the hot tub and garden were very much enjoyed by my Children and grandchildren by day and in the evening we were able to prepare lovely meals in the well equipped kitchen and enjoy our meals and games evenings around the large dining room table. My Grandaughter loved the yellow relaxing chair chaise long. The owner was great to communicate with and happy to answer any questions we had before and during our stay. We all fell in love with the farm cat whom we named Brian. Thanks for a memorable holiday, would love to return in the future.

The whole family absolutely loved staying at Tirallen. All the bedrooms were very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped so cooking was a joy and eating around the large dinning table made every meal memorable. We had breakfast at the outdoor dinning table in the sun and enjoyed the beautiful well kept grounds. The local cat is very friendly but kept hidden away from our dog who enjoyed roaming the grounds. Before we got home the family were asking when we can visit again.

Even Storm Bert couldnt spoil our trip to Tirallen! We had a fabulous time at this beautifully renovated property. Its an easy place to travel to, and whilst its only a couple of minutes away from the main road, it feels as though you are in the middle of nowwhere. The property is a short walk from the River Towy, although when we arrived it was far too wet and windy, so a walk along the riverbank was off the cards! The house is in a quiet location on a former dairy farm, and theres even a farm cat to keep you company if you so wish. There are five spacious bedrooms, plenty of hot running water and a lovely modern bathroom and kitchen. It was a pleasure to sit in the hot tub and stare at the stars and then return to the house to either be sociable and watch TV in one lounge or sit quietly with a book in the other! There are plenty of superb pubs in the vicinity for a tasty meal and we had a fabulous lunch at Y Polyn near the National Botanic Gardens. The owners were fabulous and able to assist with any queries and very helpful. We hope to return before too long as it was the perfect place to relax and unwind.

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.

Sharon

Beautiful House. Lovely and peaceful clean and well kept. Plenty of seating areas. massive fully enclosed garden safe for our two fur babies. Very close to Llandovery which has most things you will need. Id 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 himher 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

Debbie

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 didnt 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.

Kornelia

8 of us stayed over the weekend at Tirallen and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Theres 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!

Claire

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 dcor... 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...

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.

Robert

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

Tatiana

Absolutely amazing! Perfect everything! Wonderful host

Victoria

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 didnt 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!

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. Wed 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.

Stacey

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

Rachel

Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality. The house is beautiful and so sympathetically renovated. It was warm and comfortable and welcoming. We had a fabulous time.

Fantastic property. It provides a real home away from home, very comfortable and well thought out. Hosts are very hospitable and go the extra mile to ensure the guests are happy! Highly recommended!
