In the foothills of Betws Mountain, in the heart of rural Carmarthenshire, sits our traditional small farm. A stay at Gilfach Gower is an escape to nature, tranquillity and a sustainable way of farming life. We offer unique accommodation and high end luxury in a completely private and secluded setting. As recently featured on BBC's 'Escape to the Country'! The yurt sits in its own elevated wildflower meadow, enclosed by hedgerows and trees to give complete privacy and seclusion during your stay. Celebrating traditional crafts, our yurt was handmade & hand-painted in Mongolia. The large yurt can comfortably sleep four; the king size bed providing spacious luxury for two, plus there are two extra single beds. When not in use, one is hidden away and the other serves as a relaxing day bed. Eclectic upcycled furniture give you total comfort and practicality. The yurt is fully insulated and at its heart is the wood burning stove... using our own seasoned wood it will have you tingling with warmth, even on a cold night. Outside the yurt is a dining area with kettle bbq and beautiful hand made fire pit for toasting marshmallows. And tucked away behind the yurt is the automatic hot tub which comfortably sits four, with 12 jets providing the ultimate massage experience. It's the perfect place to relax and gaze at the stars on a clear evening. The hot tub can be used whenever takes you like, day or night! A short walk from the yurt is the private fully accessible shower room and fully equipped kitchen, with everything you'll need for your stay. Parking is provided adjacent to the kitchen. Luxurious bedding, blankets, towels and toiletries are provided. All you have to bring is a good book, some comfy boots and your bathers! And we can arrange a private yoga lesson with an experienced instructor to help you unwind and relax. Our delicious farm produce is available to purchase. Why not try one of our pre-order Breakfast or BBQ boxes, or take some produce home with you!

I love the outdoors and being active so running our small farm is the perfect career for me! I set up a glamping business a couple of years ago to share the tranquillity, beauty and wonder of the farm with guests. I love nothing more than giving guests a farm tour and introducing all the animals - Highland cows, sheep (and little lambs in spring), pygmy goats, pigs and chickens.

It is stunningly peaceful and quiet... yet only 15 mins from the M4 motorway and 5 mins from Ammanford town centre. Parking is provided close to the accommodation and I offer free pick ups from the local train and bus stations. Ammanford is a coal mining town full of heritage and charm. The town has a great selection of restaurants, coffee shops, bars & pubs. The beautiful market town of Llandeilo is only 15 mins away, packed with visitor attractions and foodie delights. From the yurt you can see the Brecon Beacons. Local nature reserves, castles and the amazing beaches and the coastline of Swansea Bay and the Gower are only a short drive away.
