Llanarthney 1.4 miles. Clearbrook Lodge is a lovely, traditional and characterful stone cottage, hidden away in the rural outskirts of Llanarthney, on a working farm in Carmarthenshire. It is grade II listed and was the former coach house and stable block for Clearbrook Hall.
With a woodburning stove, calming countryside setting, and welcoming up to two well-behaved pets, this delightful abode welcomes families and groups of friends, idyllic for a rural retreat.
Step inside and be charmed by the kitchen/dining room, fully equipped for you to prepare and enjoy meals, here, you can gather around the dining table and enjoy home-cooked meals, sharing stories of your day's adventures.
Adjacent to the kitchen/dining room is the sitting room, with oak floor and large mantlepiece, woodburning stove and large French doors where the original coaches would enter. It offers a light and warm retreat where you can unwind in front of the Smart TV (Netflix, Amazon etc.) whilst being warmed by the glow of the fire.

The cottage itself was so warm and cosy with a large log fire in the lounge keeping us snug and warm in the evenings. Outside you have 50 acres to explore ,with a beautiful lake which is spring fed and perfect for wild swimming. You can even row over to the island and could have a picnic their in the summer. We also used the zip wire in the woods. I could have spent the whole time just enjoying the grounds. The location is perfect to explore Carmarthenshire you are only 1 hour from Tenby,Cardigan Bay and Mumbles on the Gower. And many other places. We will be returning in the summer . Also the hosts Jemma and Sarn + their 2 lovely dogs were so welcoming. Our own dog was in doggy heaven here..I think young children would absolutely love it here ,so much exploring to do. The cottage was well equipped, had everything you could need.And quality luxury bedding always a plus in a holiday cottage.
Norma
The owners Jemma and Sarn were very helpful and welcoming , leaving us milk , honey from their hives and prosecco in the fridge. The walled patio was great for the dog. The grounds are extensive with a lovely lake. We would definitely book again.
Pete
The accommodation was spacious and comfortable with a totally secure patio area for our dog (4'high stone wall around a very large patio area) which is unusual. Access to the woodland and fields in the 60 acre gated estate was fantastic and there is a wonderful lake with small boat just yards away where the swallows feeding gave hours of pleasure. We will be going back for sure.
