The Big Cwtch Shepherd's huts was built with comfort in mind. Our luxury hut has its own electric hot tubs, a king-sized bed, comfy chairs, a wood-burning stove, a kitchen area with a sink, 2-ring hob and fridge. The Big Cwtch has its own bathrooms with a shower, toilet and sink. With a full length window looking out at picturesque views, you may not even want to get out of bed! If you choose to venture outside, you’ll be greeted by glorious, undisturbed countryside with views looking over to the Gower Peninsula and the wonderful sounds of the Welsh wildlife all around you. Walk down the footpath to Kidwelly and visit the majestic castle, cycle the Millennium coastal path alongside the estuary to Llanelli and enjoy the various activities on offer in Pembrey Country Park including the 7 mile stretch of sandy beach. Relax in your own hot tub and stargaze the unpolluted night skies. Your tranquil getaway will be made even more perfect knowing that it’s eco-friendly, with the farm windmill powering your stay.
Peter and Ann will be there to greet you and available at all times.
