Location   In one of the loveliest valleys in Wales surrounded by woods and farmland whose titles date from the 14 th century. The Maerdy was once the home farm of the historic Robert Peel Estate in the ancient district of Dinefwr. The 300-year old farmhouse and its original stone buildings have been beautifully converted into six cottages sleeping between 3 and 10 people. Two of the cottages are totally wheelchair accessible. These cottages enjoy a tranquil setting amongst mature and natural wooded gardens with a stream. Furnished with many antiques and well equipped throughout, they are warm, welcoming and cosy retreats ideal for a holiday at any time of the year, and perfect for relaxing winter breaks. The grounds offer plenty of space for children and dogs, and lovely walks straight from the cottage doors will delight country lovers, bird watchers and serious hikers alike.

Close by are the Black Mountains . Llyne Brianne and Dinefwr Castle Estate, and within easy driving distance are several famous gardens including the National Botanical Gardens of Wales . Cardigan Bay and the excellent sandy beaches of the Gower are within an hours drive. Trout and salmon fishing, climbing, swimming, golf and riding can all be enjoyed locally. Llandeilo is 3 miles away and Carmarthen 18 miles.

Directions
If entering Wales via the Severn Bridge (M4), the fastest route, continue to the end of the motorway and take the A483 to Llandeilo via Ammanford. On leaving Llandeilo on the A40 bear left along the B4302, about 3 miles of undulating road, until reaching the Taliaris cross-roads. Turn right for Maerdy. The entrances to the cottages are on the left.

Alternative Scenic Approach
An alternative but more scenic route is via Raglan, Abergavenny, Brecon, and Llandovery along the A40. 12 Miles from Llandovery and just before entering Llandeilo turn right along the B4302, and approach as outlined above. To locate Dan y Cefn turn off the A40 away from the villages of Llangadog or Cwm Ifor, each about 6 miles from Llandeilo/Llandovery. Follow the road up on to the top of the ridge (about 1.5 miles). The entrance to Dan y Cefn is marked by the refuse collection box on the side of the road. Turn down the lane by crossing the cattle grid. Dan y Cefn is at the bottom of the lane.
