Standing Stone Cottage is one of two cottages converted from 18th century stone and slate barns. They are set in a picturesque farmyard setting and surrounded by 30 acres of farmland in the beautiful rolling Carmarthenshire hills.
On the farm there is plenty to do and see: why not enjoy a picnic in one of the fields, by the ponds or in the woods; take a walk in 30 acres of fields with ponds, hedgerows and orchards where you will see many different birds and wildlife; explore the woodland walk; take a farm tour and meet the animals, including ducks, goats, chickens and sheep or find the ancient standing stone in the small orchard close by.
The cottages offer stylish and comfortable accommodation and are ideal for those in search of a peaceful and rural holiday. Within easy reach are the excellent beaches of the Cardigan coastline and Brechfa Forest, which is ideal for walking and cycling.
Known as the ‘Garden of Wales’ Carmarthenshire offers some superb public gardens. The National Botanic Gardens, Aberglasney and Cae Hir are all within a half hour drive of the cottages. Numerous medieval castles and forts are also within easy reach.
This working small holding has a variety of animals for you to enjoy. A woodland walk, picnic area and a number of ponds can also be enjoyed on the farm. If you want to truly relax and have a break from cooking, home cooked evening meals are available for you to have in your cottage by arrangement with the owner and they often include home grown/reared or local produce.

Reviews and Testimonials for Standing Stone Cottage
"A fantastic property and the owner is an amazing host, he’s willing to take you around the farm and never tired of our children asking questions all of the time. His home cooked meals were really good value for money and tasted better than most restaurants weve been to. One of the best properties weve stayed in"

"Back again, the refurbishment is wonderful, still the same charm and character with all the mods-cons. Thank you so much for your warmth and hospitality. Your fresh eggs, cheese, preserves are still to die for, sponge cake yummy. 5 star treatment in 6 star cottages. We will be back again in the autumn"

"Second visit and just as enjoyable as the first. The cottage is very cosy and well stocked up. Set in tranquil and relaxing scenery and helped us to de-stress after a stressful time at work. We will be back soon and will recommend it to our family and friends"
