We’re absolutely smitten with this joyful trio! 🌈🐕 We’re absolutely smitten with this joyful trio! 🌈🐕 Meet Pumpkin, Dilly & Daisy – three very good girls who stole our hearts this week! From coastal adventures to countryside roaming, they’ve shown us exactly what life at Brechfa Forest Barns is all about. Pumpkin wasn’t happy with the location though & tried to dig her way to Australia 🇦🇺 😂 We spotted them with the most brilliant mug from Aberaeron: “Do you know what I like about people? Their dogs.” 🥰😂 I have to say though we were also quite taken with the trios hoomans 💕 They’ve loved every inch of our woodland – Scentral Bark, rolling fields, and those Carmarthenshire views. Thank you Pumpkin, Dilly & Daisy – you made the week. 🐾💚 #brechfaforestbarns #dogfriendlycottages #dogfriendlyholidays #carmarthenshire #wales
THIS REVIEW MADE MY DAY! 😍 “George, Connie, Bett THIS REVIEW MADE MY DAY! 😍 “George, Connie, Betty, Elsie, Martha and Mabel enjoying Scentral Bark & Llansteffan beach. Never thought we’d all get to go on holiday together, most are rescue pooches who were in a very bad state, so to see them here enjoying themselves is a dream come true for me. Thank you! They are having a total ball. George loved the ball pool and the ball on a rope...ball monster extraordinaire that one. They’re in total heaven 👌❣️” We have just a couple of reduced breaks left for August. Post ME for the dates ⬇️ #dogfriendlycottages #carmarthenshire #wales #bargainbreaks #summervibes☀️
🐾 Every dog deserves a holiday… and these four cer 🐾 Every dog deserves a holiday… and these four certainly made the most of theirs! ❤️ From racing across the sands at Llansteffan Beach, to relaxing in our secure dog park with those breathtaking views, and finishing off with a well-earned doggy ice cream at the National Botanic Garden of Wales... we'd say that's a pretty perfect break. 🐶🍦 Meet our gorgeous four-legged guests: 🖤🤍 Berwick – the short-haired Border Collie 🖤🤍 Campbell – the long-haired Border Collie 🐻 Rosa – the adorable Cockerpoo 🤎 Stanley – the handsome Vizsla Watching dogs explore new places and return home happy (and usually exhausted!) is one of our favourite parts of what we do. At Brechfa Forest Barns, your dogs aren't just welcome... they're the VIPs. ❤️ Who's bringing their four-legged best friend on their next adventure? 🐾 #BrechfaForestBarns #DogFriendlyWales #DogHoliday #LlansteffanBeach
🐾 When we say we have secure fencing… we mean it! 🐾 When we say we have secure fencing… we mean it! 🐾 Meet Alfie - official Chief Fence Inspector when we created Scentral Bark, ensuring it is as secure as we say it is! 🐶✔️ Our fun filled private dog park has 6ft upside-down deer fencing. Why upside down? Because the mesh is smallest at the bottom, meaning even tiny escape artists like Chihuahuas can’t squeeze through 🐕 And for those determined diggers? The land is shale at the base making tunnelling underneath impossible - although it will give those claws a good filing! So the only way your dog is getting out… is if you leave the gate open! 😄 That’s one less thing to worry about whilst you’re on your dog friendly holiday. Simply soak up the peace and quiet knowing your four-legged family members can roam safely. 🐾 Secure. 🐾 Private. 🐾 Beagle tested. 🐾 Husky tested. 🐾 Chihuahua tested. 🐾 Alfie-approved. ❤️ #BrechfaForestBarns #ScentralBark #DogFriendlyHoliday #SecureDogGarden DogFriendlyWales BeagleApproved

Worried you have TOO MANY DOGS for Brechfa Forest Worried you have TOO MANY DOGS for Brechfa Forest Barns? 🐕 Think again!! 🐾 Last week, the absolutely brilliant Helen Dempsey rolled up in her camper with not one, not five, but TEN gorgeous pups in tow — Patch, Elvis, Paddington, Sydney, Pine, Luthen, Minstrel, Hugo, Lilian and Banana!! Now here’s the thing. Banana’s already a seasoned Brechfa model (she basically owns our Instagram content at this point 🌟). The others? Let’s just say they’re getting competitive. Very competitive. Our ball pit has never seen such action, and we’re pretty sure Hugo practised his poses in the mirror before arrival. Even the sunset tried to muscle in on the action — couldn’t resist trying to photobomb the territorial photoshoots happening across the grounds!! 🌅 No such thing as too many dogs here. Just too little wall space for all the photos we want to frame. Especially of the very smug Banana! As well as a gorgeous catalogue of future Ad photos, they also very kindly ordered toys for other dogs to enjoy in the dog park! What a pack 💕 Want a similar experience? Your pack is welcome here 🥰🐾 #multipledogs #multipledoghousehold #multipledogfriendly

🐶 REACTIVE & ANXIOUS DOG OWNERS 🐶 We completely u 🐶 REACTIVE & ANXIOUS DOG OWNERS 🐶 We completely understand how difficult holidays can feel when you have a reactive or anxious dog. ❤️ Many of our guests stay with us for exactly the same reasons. We regularly welcome nervous dogs, reactive dogs, older dogs and dogs recovering from illness or trauma, so we’ve tried very hard to create an environment that feels calm, spacious and low stress. Because we’re tucked away in the Brechfa Forest hills, it’s naturally much quieter than many traditional “dog friendly” holiday destinations where dogs are everywhere. The woodland tracks are vast and peaceful, and because there are so many routes, it’s usually very easy to avoid other walkers if needed. For dog friendly beaches, the ones we recommend are usually much quieter than most all year around. For woodland walks, it’s usually incredibly quiet here year-round. Even in summer, the forest can still feel wonderfully calm compared to busier tourist areas. All three cottages have direct access to walks from the door, so you don’t need to load up the car just to have a stress-free wander. Our private dog park “Scentral Bark” works as follows: https://guide.touchstay.com/guest/bZ3Fdn4NGYaq3/info/164848/ Our guests absolutely love it because it means you can enjoy the space completely privately without worrying about other dogs appearing unexpectedly. Many reactive dog owners tell us it becomes their dog’s favourite part of the holiday! 😊 We also have:
• TOTALLY enclosed gardens/patios
• unlimited dogs welcome
• dogs allowed throughout the cottages
• quiet walking straight from the doorstep
• lots of nearby quiet beaches
• dog welcome packs and treats
• plenty of space to decompress and relax We think you could have a lovely, peaceful stay here without the usual pressures that many dog-friendly places unfortunately bring.  However please check our Facebook recommendations - there are over 600, lots of which are from owners of anxious or reactive dogs ☺️🐾
