Carmarthen 2.5 miles.
Set on a small holding in the Camarthenshire countryside is this stunning, reverse-level barn conversion, Green Grove Barn.
Ideal for two couples or a family, the property has a wealth of home comforts, including a dishwasher and Smart TV, while offering a perfect rural experience.
As you arrive, ample parking and a delightful private courtyard greet you; you can spend your evenings in the fresh air while making use of the BBQ in the private courtyard.
Inside, drop your bags off in the ground-floor bedroom, a double with views of the ponies’ sand school, before making your way up to the remaining bedroom and living areas.
Upstairs, you can find another stylish double room with sleek, wall storage for your belongings.
The well-equipped kitchen/diner will have the chef of your group rustling up meals for the whole family, while the rest of you catch up and plan a day of adventures at the dining table for four.
From here, make your way to the sitting room, which is spacious with floor-to-ceiling windows and a Juliet balcony, thoughtfully installed for enjoying views of the countryside.
When you’re ready to explore, head down into Carmarthen town where you can find a range of popular shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as the Carmarthenshire County Museum at Abergwili.
The National Botanic Gardens of Wales is home to the world's largest single span glasshouse and also to the British Bird of Prey Centre.
The charming Aberglasney Gardens meanwhile are only 9 miles away as you travel up the beautiful Tywi Valley.
The wonderful Gwili Steam Railway yearns for the attention of the history buffs and a trip to Llansteffan or Kidwelly castles will also not disappoint.
Alternatively, take in a day at the beach down in Pendine before calling in at Laugharne to revel in the story of Wales' famed poet Dylan Thomas at his Writing Shed and his former home, now a welcoming museum.
A day at Pembrey Country Park offers the opportunity of seeing some delightful wildlife in the area and a day at the races in Ffoslas is always great fun, if the timing is in your favour!
Whether you are looking for a restful escape or an action-packed break, choose Green Grove Barn as your Welsh base.
