We had a lovely week. The house has everything you need and it is well organised. The garden is so pretty with a lovely view over the valley. We had a few BBQs when we had some nice sunny days which was great. Some of us managed to see Night Jars which was a real treat. All in all a nice holiday.

A great cottage with excellent layout for a group with children. The cottage was well equipped especially in the kitchen where we cooked every evening. A lovely location with plenty of books and recommended visits to plan. Also a selection of books and games - plus great hosts when we needed to call. I would definitely recommend.

Nice location with fabulous views across the valley. Good facilities and well equipped, well suited for 6/7 guests. Walks and places of interest all within reasonable driving distance. Reasonable shops at Llandovery (7 miles), pub in village but hours variable so check.

The house was spacious, comfortable and very well equipped, in a beautiful, quiet area of the country - a well-kept secret. The view from the back garden is stunning, whatever the weather. There are fabulous walks direct from the door, onto the Moors and up to the hills and we all had a lovely, relaxing week at Ty Gorof.

A wonderful cosy, comfortable cottage which had everything we needed. We especially liked the log burner, particularly welcoming as we had a wet few days. The separate drying room for wet gear was appreciated! The area is beautiful so the weather did not spoil anything and there are many lovely walks to do in the area to keep you busy.

We stayed in Ty Gorof for 5 nights over Christmas and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage is in a very pretty location with fabulous views especially from the back. The property is very well equipped and obviously well looked after; it's clean and comfortable and was plenty big enough for 6 adults and a baby. Despite the Holiday Cottages descrRead moreiption, however, there is no village shop and the village pub has now closed permanently. Nearest supplies about 7 miles in Llandovery. Hide

Lovely house, spacious, comfortable beds, spectacular views. Easy to walk or cycle from the house. Some low and long doorways, shower and en-suite a bit of a squeeze. Overall well equipped and comfortable. Superb bird watching from house and garden. Small south facing patio with furniture. Friendly local pub. Shops and eateries in nearby LlandoveryRead more, nature reserves, walks, mountain biking, heritage sites in area. Several local farms selling eggs and honey. Worth it for the views. Hide
