The Little Cow Shed is set in the heart of a working small holding, originally built in the late 1800s and recently renovated and it now offers a unique, quirky accommodation for up to 4 guests. The small holding is situated on the side of a hill overlooking the Lougher valley where you can relax and watch the sun setting over the rolling hills and listen to the sounds of the countryside. The land is also home to our small flock of Black welsh mountain sheep, our free ranging chickens and cockerels who are more than happy to give you an early morning call. We also keep ducks, geese and guinea fowl. On arrival you can expect complimentary tea, coffee and fresh milk provided by the cows that graze our valley and same day fresh laid eggs. It is possible to accommodate up to 6 guests if you combine the little cow shed (4) with Molehill lodge(2)
We are relaxed easy going people who thoroughly enjoy the pace of country life which we like to share with our guests. Our hobbies are looking after our animals, especially our Cocker Spaniel dogs and producing our own fresh food. We are always available for information about the area to help you plan your days.
The Little Cow Shed is in an ideal location to visit many attractions, approximately 40 Minutes from the Gower coastline which boasts some of the most beautiful beaches in the uk which include Rhossilli, Llangenneth and Three Cliffs. In the opposite direction 30 minutes takes you into the Brecon Beacons National Park where you find so many attractions including the 4 falls walk, a must for all hikers. The small market town of Llandeilo with its boutique shops, cafes, bars and restaurants is a short 20 minutes drive.
