For dog's with plenty of energy!

This week I would like to draw your attention to another of our dog friendly properties located Llanllawddog, near Carmarthen which I think is just perfect for those many pooches that have a lot of energy to burn! So, if at home you have a bouncing boxer or a crazy collie, then please read on and see if Nantglas is just the property you have been looking for...

Nantglas, is set within the owners’ 35 acres of farm and parkland, situated in the bottom of a valley on the edge of the extensive Brechfa forest, with its myriad of footpaths to explore it is an ideal location for lovely walks with your dog.

At the property, sliding doors open onto a paved patio with steps up to the large, enclosed and lawned garden ideal for your pooch to play ball, chase his tail and if he is anything like my dog, chase bumble bees and wasps round and round in circles until he is dizzy!

As I appreciate that making sure you have places you are able to walk your dog nearby is probably one of the most important things on your check list, I will expand slightly on walking your dog in the Brechfa Forest, which is located around 20 minutes away from Nantglas.

Along most of the trails your pooch is more than welcome to join you as the majority are open access, just so long as they are kept under control at all times during your exploration.

As an example of what is on offfer:

Abergorlech is a delightful trail requiring moderate ability, and follows the River Gorlech along forestry roads before crossing a small bridge on to a footpath and climbing up hill through mature mixed broad leaf and coniferous woodland.

The walk has both short and long distance routes, which are complemented by an ever-changing woodland environment. The picnic area is the trails starting point and is also an ideal place in which to leave your car.

The trail is 2 miles long, and would take you around 1 1/2 hours to complete.

Just a quick little note to state the obvious, please make sure that suitable footwear is worn as the trails can become slippery in adverse weather conditions! So in other words, please leave your heels behind ladies!

If you feel that your four legged friend has been good this year and deserves a little break away, and would like further information on Nantglas, then you can either view the property details on our featured cottage on the homepage, or give a member of our Coastal team a call on 01437 765 765 and they will be more than happy to assist you.

And the best part about your dog being able to getaway for a break with us, is that you are able to pack your suitcase and come along too!
