About

the area

Pengelli is the perfect base for discovering the whole of South West Wales.  Immediately nearby, you’ll find the magnificent Brechfa Forest, a perfect playground for walkers, mountain bikers and horse riders.  And if you’re one of the latter, you can even stable your horse at the farm during your stay, so why not bring them along?

The River Cothi is renowned for its trout and sea trout (or ‘sewin’), so don’t forget your fishing rod!  Gardeners can look forward to a tour of the National Botanic Garden of Wales before heading on to Aberglasney, and the National Wetlands Centre makes for a wonderful family day out of bug hunting, pond dipping and bird watching.  And don’t forget to stop by the popular Dolaucothi Gold Mines, first excavated by the Romans and now an unforgettable experience for visitors.

A little further afield, you’ll find the legendary Brecon Beacons, the resplendent Cambrian Mountains and the spectacular Cefn Sidan – the longest beach in Wales.

After a busy day out, you’ll be ready to return to the haven of the lodge or dairy, where your first sip of wine on the terrace is even more rewarding (not to mention your long dip in the hot tub!).  So whether you’re coming to Carmarthenshire for the views, the activities, or simply to get away from it all, there’s no stay more perfect than at Pengelli.
