A charming stone-built country cottage overlooking the ruins of a medieval abbey set among gorgeous countryside, Heron House is a haven of peace and beauty. It is an ideal hideaway for family and friends looking for a tranquil getaway in the Carmarthenshire countryside. Park off road and upon entering the property, you will be met with a well-equipped flag-stoned country kitchen the perfect space to whip up a hearty meal after a day exploring the beautiful local area. At the end of a day spent exploring the nearby nature reserve or enjoying one the many beautiful walks, repair to the spacious dining room seating up to 10 people to enjoy your meal. As the evening wears on, settle down into a characterful wooden-beamed sitting room with a corner sofa ranged around an open fireplace. When sleep calls, enjoy a relaxing shower in the ground-floor shower room or soak in the freestanding bath or walk-in shower upstairs, before choosing between four beautifully furnished bedrooms where care has been taken to maintain the charm of this lovely old building. Choose between a king-size room with views of the abbey, a tastefully furnished double, a twin with sofa and a ground-floor twin. With amazing views of the abbey, make the most of the outdoor space by dining alfresco or enjoying the communal garden or perhaps take an after-dinner stroll through the meadow down to the shores of the lake. Heron House is simply an idyllic base for your next adventures to Carmarthenshire.
