  • Linda

    “Jemma and Sarn were exceptional hosts - extremely welcoming and helpful.”

    The cottage had everything one might need including a well equipped kitchen. The secluded location was very peaceful yet brimming with the activities of nature. The woods, fields and meadows were a delight to walk through as was observing the sheep. Our dog had a spell binding encounter with a frog which intrigued her. The cottage is in a beautiful part of Wales, especially for gardens (Aberglasney in particular), beaches, castles, fishing and hiking. We definitely plan to return in the Spring.

The property

Llanarthney 1.4 miles.

Clearbrook Lodge is a charming and traditional stone cottage full of character, tucked away in the peaceful countryside on the outskirts of Llanarthney, set within a working farm in Carmarthenshire.

This Grade II-listed building was once the coach house and stables for Clearbrook Hall.

With its wood-burning stove, tranquil rural surroundings, and a warm welcome extended to two well-behaved dogs, this delightful retreat is ideal for families or groups of friends seeking a countryside escape.

Step inside to discover the inviting kitchen and dining area, fully equipped for preparing and enjoying meals together.

Gather around the dining table to savour home-cooked dishes and share tales of the day’s adventures.

Just off the kitchen is the sitting room, featuring an oak floor, a grand mantelpiece, a wood-burning stove, and large French doors—once the entrance for horse-drawn carriages.

This bright and welcoming space is perfect for relaxing in front of the Smart TV (with access to Netflix, Amazon, and more), while enjoying the warmth of the fire.

When night falls, choose from three tastefully furnished bedrooms.

The spacious four-poster double room includes an en-suite with a walk-in shower, offering a private and restful haven.

The additional double and twin rooms are equally appealing, with side and overhead windows that allow plenty of natural light.

Outside, the enclosed rear garden is perfect for outdoor living, complete with a teak pergola, patio furniture, and a barbecue.

Enjoy meals alfresco on the patio, make the most of balmy summer evenings with a barbecue, or simply unwind with a good book.

Just beyond the garden lies a picturesque lake, surrounded by meadows and enchanting woodland—an ideal setting for a leisurely stroll and a chance to explore the beauty of the farm.

Note: This property is one of two semi-detached cottages, each sleeping 6, and can be booked with Ref 1162283, together sleeping up to 12 guests, with adjoining garden.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.
