Brynhyfryd Cottage Self Catering Holidays in Wales:
Brynhyfryd Self-Catering Cottage is a traditional Welsh farm worker’s dwelling, formerly known as “Groes Fach”, and dates back some 150 years. It is situated on the edge of the picturesque village of Caio (Welsh spelling “Caeo”) amid the rolling Carmarthenshire countryside. The market towns of Llandovery and Llandeilo are within easy reach, as is the University Town of Lampeter just over the border in Ceredigion. The Brunant Arms in Caio village serves excellent food and the garage in the nearby village of Crugybar is open daily and also sells groceries and newspapers.
The cottage has been sympathetically renovated to a high standard, using local materials and craftsmen. It retains much of its original rustic character and charm, whilst providing every aspect of comfort you would expect of modern living standards. The original fireplace with its bread oven and beams is the focal point of the open-plan sitting/dining area and this, combined with the thick stone walls, makes it warm and cosy in winter and cool in summer.
"Your cottage is fantastic and very comfortable – we really appreciate the warm welcome and will definitely be returning."

Visiting Carmarthenshire, known as “The Garden of Wales”, you will find an endless number of visitor attractions to suit all tastes and make your stay in Wales a memorable one. The National Trust-owned Dolaucothi Gold Mines, which date back to Roman times, are a five minute drive away from Brynhyfryd Cottage and nearby Caio Forest makes it a wonderful location for walking and horse riding. Brechfa Forest is within easy reach and its designated cycle trails are suitable for all ages and abilities. Fishing is also available locally. There are castles, gardens, and country parks in abundance, as well as easy access to miles of sandy beaches and coves all around the West Coast. The Brecon Beacons National Park, the Black Mountains and Llynn Brianne Reservoir all provide breathtaking scenery and a wealth of wildlife, particularly Red Kites which can be seen all over this area. Discover the delights that Carmarthenshire has to offer or just relax and enjoy the peace and quiet of this Welsh rural retreat. Whatever kind of holiday you are looking for, you can be sure a warm welcome awaits you.
