View on Google MapsPhoto: Writing Shed Wales
Whitland sits in rural Carmarthenshire, a quieter corner of West Wales with countryside walks and cycle routes nearby. The Writing Shed occupies its own corner of a 20-acre alpaca farm, a standalone cabin with its own entrance, parking and garden. It sleeps two in a super kingsize bed upstairs, with a bathroom that has a bath, shower and heated towel rail. Downstairs, a combined living and kitchen space opens onto a patio and garden furnished for outdoor living.
The kitchen has an electric hob and microwave for self-catering. Heating is electric throughout, with logs provided for the wood burner if you want to use it. Wi-Fi and electricity are included, along with bed linen and towels. You also get a garden fire pit, barbecue, and an outdoor bath. There is private parking for two cars and an electric vehicle charging point on site. The cabin is non-smoking.
From here you can explore the Taf Valley, fish from a private riverbank if you wish, and meet the alpacas that share the farm. The market town of Narberth lies seven miles away with cafes, shops and galleries. The coast and its beaches are within easy reach, as are castles and ancient sites across West Wales. Check-in is after 4pm and checkout before 10am.

What guests say
Had an amazing time here, particularly enjoyed all of the outside sitting areas. The private fire pit / BBQ area with the outside bath behind the writing shed was a particular highlight. We sat, cooked, played guitar and had a bath under the stars (wine in hand). The night sky is so dark, you can literally see all of them. Lighting the log fire and warming up the writing shed was a great idea before getting in the bath too. It was lovely to have a warm dry space today off in. We had such a relaxing time and it felt like a million miles away from the hustle and bustle of day to day life. Just what the doctor ordered.

We only stayed a couple of nights but both me and my other half really enjoyed our stay, the place is very nice and the area and views are stunning. Both Jackie and Lindsay were fantastic hosts and made us feel welcome! The Llamas were awesome and we'd like to say thankyou for a lovely stay! Would absolutely recommend for couples looking for a quiet and romantic getaway.

This was a great place to stay, just for the two of us, to get away from our busy city life. We absolutely loved star gazing in the night and saw countless stars. The Writing Shed was a great place to cook, and enjoy a toasty fire, and there were 2 other rooms, with panoramic views. The biggest bed we have ever slept in. Feeling relaxed, so it was perfect for us. Already missing the sound of owls hooting at night.
