Guests say
Threshing Barn in Llandovery offers a tranquil, rural retreat with friendly hosts and a dog-friendly environment. Guests appreciate the beautiful setting, local walks, and proximity to a good pub and restaurant. The property is well-appointed, providing a comfortable base for activities like metal detecting. The enclosed meadow with a stream is a highlight for evening strolls.
The property is generally well-kept, with only minor comments about cobwebs, which are understandable given the rural barn setting.
The location is praised for its beauty and tranquillity, ideal for guests seeking a peaceful break from city life. Local amenities are within a reasonable driving distance.
The property offers a comfortable stay, though there is a mention of limited window opening which affected temperature control during warmer weather. A fan was provided for some relief.
While guests are satisfied with the property and mention helpful owners, there is insufficient detail to accurately assess the overall facilities and maintenance.
There are no mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate the level of thoughtfulness, so this cannot be scored. Guests should note that such gestures, if provided, are a bonus and not guaranteed.

We had a lovely time at Threshing Barn and the owners were extremely friendly and welcoming. We had gone for a metal detecting weekend which was around 30 minutes drive from the cottage so this was a great base and allowed us to spend the weekend with friends partaking in our favourite hobby whilst having the comfort of a soft bed, shower and toilet as opposed to the limited amenities of the campsite! I marked down slightly on cleanliness and comfort for 2 reasons. Firstly there were a few cobwebs in the ceiling, however as this is a former barn and in a very rural location this is to be expected. Second reason was that the windows do not open very far. We were lucky to have some amazing weather, but this did mean the house got a bit warm through the day, particularly upstairs. There was a fan available and we took this upstairs which provided some comfort but an open window would have provided a bit more of a comfortable night! Apart from those 2 very minor things, everything was perfect. As I said the owners were very friendly and we spent time talking to them both, the location is fantastic for evening strolls and walks with the dogs. There is an enclosed meadow with a stream that the boys loved. Finding the house was very easy and parking not a problem. Mobile signal is best with o2 apparently which is who we are with so we had no problems but apparently other networks may struggle. Wifi in the house is pretty good too. Thanks very much, we hope to visit again in the future!! Tom & Marie
