Holiday Cottages in Taliaris. Carmarthenshire Holiday cottages in Wales

Cottage Reference: OLF Grading:

"Distinctive cottages set amongst wooded gardens – a haven of tranquillity in a lovely Welsh Valley . . ."
In one of the loveliest valleys in Wales and surrounded by woods and farmland whose titles date from the 14th century, The Maerdy was once the home farm of the historic Robert Peel Estate. The 300-year-old farmhouse and four of its original stone buildings have been beautifully converted to form superb holiday cottages, each in its own tranquil setting in mature wooded gardens with a stream. Equipped to Visit Wales ‘4 Star’ standard (JBK, JPF, OBP & OLF) and ‘3 Star’ standard (JBL), and furnished with many antiques with all modern comforts provided, they are warm and cosy retreats – ideal for a holiday at any time of year, and perfect for relaxing short breaks. The grounds offer plenty of space for children, and lovely walks from the cottage doors will delight country lovers, bird-watchers and serious hikers alike. The Maerdy can accommodate up to 35 visitors, which makes it a popular venue for larger families or groups.
Close by are the Black Mountains, Llyne Brianne and Dinefwr Castle Estate, and within easy driving distance are several famous gardens including the National Botanical Gardens of Wales, a unique project, completely created from scratch. Cardigan Bay and the excellent sandy beaches of The Gower are within an hours’ drive. Trout and salmon fishing, climbing, swimming, golf and riding can all be enjoyed locally. Llandeilo 3 miles. Carmarthen 18 miles. Under the careful management of the nearby owner, the cottages offer a warm welcome with a tempting range of home-baked pies, cakes and complete evening meals, all available by arrangement (menu on request).
