Located in the picturesque region of Talley, Carmarthenshire, this enchanting historic home, originally constructed in the 17th century as a barn, has evolved over the years into a traditional stone Welsh cottage. Nestled in the hills, it offers breathtaking views of the village below and the surrounding landscapes. Recently refurbished throughout, the property features modern amenities such as new carpets, a contemporary kitchen, bathroom, utility room, and a conservatory, all while retaining its charming character with original rafters and a cozy open fire. This delightful retreat comfortably accommodates up to six guests, making it an ideal getaway for families or groups.
The layout of the cottage is thoughtfully designed over two levels, with the living areas situated downstairs and the sleeping quarters upstairs. The upper level boasts a spacious master bedroom complete with a reading nook, a queen-size bed, and an en suite bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and a luxurious rolltop claw bath. Additionally, there are two other well-appointed bedrooms with double beds, and a nearby bathroom equipped with necessary amenities. Each morning, guests can step out onto the small balcony to take in the stunning vistas of the village and hills, enhancing the sense of tranquility that this location offers.
On the ground floor, the entrance hall leads to a welcoming living room furnished with ample seating and a wood burner, creating a cozy atmosphere for relaxation. Entertainment options include a Smart TV, a DVD player, and a selection of films. A smaller sitting room provides additional comfort with a day bed, another TV, and a variety of games and books. The newly renovated kitchen is well-equipped for meal preparation, while the utility room adds convenience with a washing machine and an extra toilet. The adjoining conservatory invites guests to bask in natural light, offering a perfect spot to unwind with a book or enjoy the surrounding views, with options for outdoor dining on the patio equipped with a barbecue and chiminea.
Plasnewydd serves as an ideal escape, whether in summer or winter, providing a serene atmosphere for relaxation and privacy. Guests can explore the natural beauty of the area, with opportunities for fishing in the Talley lakes, walking through Talley woods, or simply enjoying the comfort of the cottage while observing the changing weather. However, guests should be aware of certain safety considerations, including a narrow driveway, an unfenced stream on the property, and steep drops that could pose risks to small children. The location also offers access to local attractions such as the West Wales Museum of Childhood and the National Botanic Garden of Wales, making it a perfect base for both adventure and leisure in the heart of the Welsh countryside.
