Ty Unnos is a fabulous traditional Welsh thatched cottage in the beautiful Carmarthenshire hills, unlike anything you'll find through your average holiday cottage agency. This is exactly what 'under the thatch' is all about - simple, rustic, authentic - in fact this is possibly the most authentic Welsh cottage interior in Wales. Built from local materials in the old-fashioned way, in just one night as per tradition, Ty Unnos is a typical croglofft cottage – an open-plan living space with a sleeping loft over. See how in thesephotosand in thisdescription. It really is like stepping back in time, into a museum-quality interior.

This romantic Welsh cottage is beautifully furnished with traditional antiques. With a sitting area around the hearth, a small kitchen with basic amenities and a Cwpwrdd deuddarn (storage cupboard) downstairs, the sleeping loft is up some fairly steep stairs. There is also a small alcove on the ground floor under the loft with a traditional single Welsh box bed ( you need to be reasonably agile to climb in). The stylish, contemporary bathroom is the only 21^st Century touch! See extraphotos of this perfect Welsh cottage. See a recent Christmas blog from Design Hunter here with some beautiful images.

The cottage has under floor heating throughout.
