View on Google MapsPhoto: Upton Hall Cottages
Carmarthenshire's rolling landscape draws walkers and fishermen to the River Cothi valley, where quiet villages and market towns like Llandeilo sit within easy reach. Gwili Cottage occupies its own corner of a courtyard at Upton Hall, a working estate south of Carmarthen. The stone building sleeps four across two bedrooms—one double, one with twin singles—plus a bathroom with bath and shower. Downstairs, the living room has a wood burner and Freeview television; the kitchen is equipped for everyday cooking with electric oven and hob, microwave, and washing machine.
Bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi are provided, along with initial logs for the burner. A travel cot and highchair are available if needed. Outside, an enclosed courtyard with seating and garden furniture gives a private outdoor space, and there is parking for two cars on site. One well-behaved pet is welcome. The cottage does not permit smoking.
Four miles away in Nantgaredig, guests have discounted access to an 18-metre heated indoor swimming pool—useful on poor-weather days—which also has a gym, steam room and changing facilities. The surrounding countryside offers numerous walking routes and access to fishing on the River Cothi. Llandeilo and Carmarthen, both with restaurants, galleries and independent shops, are a 15-minute drive away.

What guests say
Had a fabulous long weekend at Upton Hall Cottages to celebrate a special family occasion. We hired three of the cottages (Severn, Tawe and Gwili) as there were a lot of us and we had 5 dogs between us. All the cottages surround a small courtyard so the setup couldn't have been better. We used Severn as the main base for gathering together in the evenings as it easily accommodated us all comfortably in the open plan kitchen / dining / living room area. Five of us stayed in Severn, four in Tawe and another four in Gwilli. All the cottages are well equipped with everything you need and are very cosy and comfortable. Severn and Tawe had the benefit of hot tubs which was a lovely addition. There is a swimming pool, sauna and steam room a short drive away which was also very enjoyable. The area is very quiet and peaceful, with lots of nice places to visit nearby, including castles, beaches, national trust and woodland walks. Stargazing on a clear night from the hot tub is a must as the area benefits from dark skies. Muriel is a fantastic host and is on hand for anything you may need, nothing is too much trouble. The birthday card was a lovely touch and made the celebrations even more special. All in all we had a very enjoyable stay and we would definitely love to return again.

Lovely place to stay for a few day. Very spacious with all you need. Few roads closed due to the weather but found it ok. We had a very chilled time with our dog. Lots of walks. Will be going back.

Thank you for your hospitality — everything was perfect! The kitchen was clean and well-equipped, the location was excellent, the nature around was pristine, and the hot tub was clean and checked daily by the host. We truly enjoyed our stay; everything was great, and the host was very kind, helpful, and guided us a lot. We really appreciate everything
