Doggy Paradise really does exist!

It is true, a dog's paradise really does exist. The three dog friendly properties within a terrace of barn conversions near Carmarthen really do offer an array of surprises that any dog would be over the moon to discover!

Forest View Cottages, Nantglas, Ty Coedwig and Ty Dyffryn are set within the owners' 35 acres of farm and parkland, situated at the bottom of a valley on the edge of the extensive Brechfa Forest. It even sounds amazing doesn't it?

Brechfa Forest truly inhabits some of the most spectacular scenery and views in Carmarthenshire, with it's myriad of footpaths to explore it makes it an ideal location for lovely walks with your dog. It is home to an abundance of wildlife and ancient woodland covering the steep slopes and riverbanks. No wonder the sublime setting is so popular with so many visitors wanting to explore and discover it's unspoilt nature.




Each of the dog friendly properties have been individually and uniquely designed with retained beams, all offering a comfortable and really special place to holiday with your dog. Outside each property you have your very own paved patio and landscaped communal area, which makes the perfect setting for an evening barbecue, not forgetting a sausage or two for your best friend.


Nantglas is the larger of the properties sleeping 6, with both Ty Coedwig and Ty Dyffryn sleeping 4.

As everyone appreciates, bringing your dog on holiday naturally requires responsibility and planning. As being a responsible dog owner is already in the bag, let's get to the fun bit, planning where to walk!

Along most of the trails within Brechfa Forest your dog 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 the excitement of your exploration.

Abergorlech is a delightful trail requiring moderate ability, following the River Gorlech along forestry roads before crossing a small bridge onto 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.

To state the obvious, please make sure that suitable footwear is worn by all clumsy humans as the trails can become slippery in adverse weather conditions!

A little drive from the Forest View Cottages to Pembrey will be sure to tire even the most energetic greyhound! Cefn Sidan is an 8 mile long beach in Pembrey Country Park edged by a belt of golden sand dunes. There are clear panoramic views across Carmarthen Bay and the Gower coastline.

A quick mention as well to the Millennium Coastal Park which occupies around 10 miles of coastline on the Burry Estuary. The park offers superb views along it's length of the Gower Peninsula. One of it's many features is the continuous traffic-free cycle/footpath.

There really is plenty to keep the whole family occupied, so much so a week simply wouldn't be enough!
