✨ GUESS THIS DOG FRIENDLY BEACH! ✨

Clue: it’s eight miles long, gloriously wild, and paws-down one of the most breathtaking stretches of dog friendly sand in Wales 🐾 - and just around 45 minutes from the cottages.

Often called the jewel in Carmarthenshire’s crown, this place has everything:

🌲 Woodland walks and cycle trails
☕ A huge dog-friendly café
🚂 Miniature railway
⛳ Golf course & dry ski slope
🛝 Adventure playground
🏖️ And that vast, white-sand beach that feels like it goes on forever

Perfect for long, leg-stretching walks, sandy paws, salty air and that deep-exhale feeling 🌊✨

We’re wishing Nikki & Jay the very best of luck as they leave for Spain today – what an exciting new adventure ahead 😃

You might just see them on the telly this time next year… 😉

Until then, you can follow their journey and brand-new Spanish ventures at @escape_to_andalucia, @unique_retreats_spain, @mbspain.com_ and @creating_casa_fina 🇪🇸

In the meantime Brechfa is in safe hands.  Here’s to new beginnings all round 🥂

Our BBQ hut means BBQ season never ends – and honestly… winter is when it’s at its very best.

Picture this:
✨ Crackling fire
✨ Snow (or rain!) safely outside
✨ Plates warming by the flames
✨ Laughter, good food, and no rush to go anywhere

It’s snug, atmospheric and perfect for a small celebration, a cosy get-together, or the most romantic night in for two. No weather worries, no cold fingers – just proper hygge, forest-style a 2 minute stroll from your cottage🌲

Not surprisingly, it’s one of our most-loved winter features ❤️

Once you’ve BBQ’d like this… you’ll never look back.

🔥 Would you choose this for a winter escape or a special occasion?

“Beautiful cottage, just perfect for us and 6 dogs! They loved the dog park. Forest for walks basically on the doorstep and lots of lovely beaches and country park within an hours drive. Great getaway and would definitely go again!”

We honestly couldn’t have wished for a lovelier start as the new custodians of Brechfa Forest Barns 🏡🌲

We’re Sara & Drock, the new custodians of this very special slice of Welsh heaven 🌲

Along with our dog Bowie 🐾, we fell head-over-heels for Brechfa the moment we arrived — and instantly knew we were home.

Drock lives for the wild outdoors (think rivers, gorges, bushcraft & adventure) and has his own outdoor adventure business @ancient_boar_adventures while I’m a little more bougie and love nature with a side of comfort ✨

Brechfa Forest Barns gives us the best of both worlds — and we can’t wait to share it with you.

Cosy fires, big views, long dog walks, peace, adventure and space to breathe…

We hope to welcome many of you here in 2026 💚
