About this property
Ty Mawr Country House is an impressive three-storey house set in Brechfa, Carmarthenshire. This pet-friendly property offers spacious, character-filled accommodation for families and friends, with a generous layout suited to larger group stays, complemented by a bar area, woodburning stoves, en-suite facilities and a landscaped garden with a river. Arrive along the generous driveway and take advantage of the ample off-road parking, with the added benefit of EV charging and a carport, before pausing to take in the setting, where a potted plant by the entrance brings a welcoming touch. Before stepping into the main house, an external super king-size bedroom offers a private retreat, where you can settle onto the sofa, unwind in front of the wall-mounted TV and enjoy a hot drink before freshening up in the en-suite.
Step into the main house and into the first ground-floor bedroom, where a super king-size bed and en-suite with both a bath and walk-in shower create a well-appointed space to relax after your journey. Continue through and you are welcomed into a characterful sitting room, where exposed stone walls, tiled flooring and a bar area invite you to gather with a drink beside the woodburning stove and ease into the evening. From here, move into the heart of the home, where the dining area opens into a large, character-rich space centred around the original bread oven. A woodburning stove adds warmth as you come together for long, sociable meals, with additional seating allowing everyone to settle in comfortably.
Afterwards, open the doors and step out into the landscaped garden, where a patio and lawn offer space to unwind while the gentle sound of the nearby river carries through the grounds. A second sitting room with its own woodburning stove provides a quieter corner to relax with conversation or a good book. The kitchen has been designed with larger groups in mind, offering a spacious, professionally styled setup with a gas range, generous preparation areas and a walk-in fridge, making it easy to move from relaxed breakfasts through to evening dining. Adding to the experience, in-house dining can be arranged, allowing you to enjoy freshly prepared meals or breakfast options without leaving the comfort of the property, making gatherings even more special.
Head up the carpeted stairs to the first floor, where a collection of bedrooms each offer their own character, from views across the garden to features such as exposed beams and brickwork. Many rooms include seating areas, inviting you to pause and unwind, while en-suite bathrooms offer a choice of bath or shower. A family bathroom with a freestanding bath provides an additional space to relax, while a first-floor cloakroom and utility room add everyday convenience. Continue to the second floor, where the rooms sit neatly beneath the eaves. A twin bedroom with Velux windows, armchairs and exposed stone offers a bright place to relax, while the final bedroom features angled beams, a TV and an open-plan en-suite, with views extending out across the garden.
Step outside to explore the extensive grounds, where the lawn and patio provide plenty of space to dine, gather and spend time together, all accompanied by the natural backdrop of the river running along the edge of the garden. A short walk leads to a village shop and pub, while further afield, Carmarthen invites you to explore its castle, independent shops and Oriel Myrddin Gallery. Swansea offers a bustling marina, Swansea Museum and the Dylan Thomas Centre, while the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park presents walking trails, scenic drives and opportunities to take in sweeping landscapes. Ty Mawr Country House in Brechfa combines scale, character and thoughtful features, making it a superb choice for a group stay in Carmarthenshire.
