Modernist holiday cottage interior in a traditional Carmarthenshire holiday cottage shell, with cedar hot tub. Lovely private location and big open Carmarthen hills views, this cottage for six has been regularly filmed for TV and interiors magazines as one of the finest in Wales.

'This luxurious bolthole, approached along a private track, has a minimalist, design-led approach.Traditional cottage meets glass and concrete- no wonder it has appeared in glossy interior mags. The environmental side has not been forgotten, with sheep-wool insulation in the roof and natural spring-water supply.' The Times (Top 10 Best Places in Britain to Escape the Crowds).
'High-end isn't the only way to high style. Under the Thatch has revolutionised our expectation of self-catering, yet weekends are affordable in a Carmarthenshire cottage, such as Bryncyn, whose concrete extension houses a wet room and kitchen/diner from which a terrace and outdoor hot tub are accessed. It is quite something to float in the warm depths as rain falls and a herd of cows passes on its way to milking.' The Observer ('Holiday Homes with Grand Designs')
Tŷ Barddu is a secluded traditional hillside cottage with a minimalist & modernist interior, extension & hot tub. This is a holiday home for people that love minimalism, good architecture, and design. No fuss, no clutter, just clean lines and a wonderful sense of purity. Your eyes are constantly drawn out to the landscape and the views of the Preseli mountains. Easy access down to the beaches and coast too, as well as attractive local towns and good dining.
Set in a good-sized garden up a private track, this is a minimalist, really 'hard-core' modernist escape. Set in the heart of the hills of Carmarthenshire, yet easily accessed from the M4. There are no near neighbours and wide-open country views.
