The Experience
Deep in the remote 600-acre Edwinsford Estate, in a woodland clearing gazing over the tree-filled Cothi Valley, find a cottage and a cosy Shepherd’s Hut away from the daily hustle and bustle. The Cothi river is only a few paces away, you can fly fish here, and you’re circled by miles of glorious forest and valley walks.
Inside, find Welsh slate underfoot, exposed stone walls and a sense of calm. Cook hearty meals in the cheery, well kitted out kitchen; read a good book in front of the wood-burner (with unlimited estate logs) and sleep deeply in comfortable bedrooms – one double, one twin and an extra double plus good shower in the hut. Stroll along the river to The Black Lion in Abergorlech.
The estate’s conservation is carefully managed and it’s teeming with wildlife: spot kingfishers, goshawks, kites, merlins and curlews, and shy otters living on the riverbank. You can wild swim on sunny days then barbecue on the terrace – you’ll feel utterly restored.

We think you'll love
- Sitting out on the terrace watching the sky light up with stars; there's not an ounce of light pollution here
- The feeling of peace and calm – the only sounds you'll hear are birds, the river, the wind rustling in the trees, and occasionally an estate vehicle
- Walking straight from the door for miles and barely seeing another soul
You should know
- There's no bath – both en suites and the hut are shower rooms
- Although you can walk to a pub it's best to do a food shop before you arrive
- You can rent the cottage on its own or take the Shepherd's Hut too

Location
The neighbourhood
You have 600 acres to roam and could spend a weekend here without using the car, but if you want to explore the area head to the nearest town, Llandeilo, for pubs, restaurants, indie and antique shops and the Toast outlet. The Aberglasney Gardens are 15 miles and the superb National Botanic Garden of Wales is 20 miles. The beaches on the Gower peninsula are about 40 minutes away.
Local points of interest from Sharon Pipe
- Cwm Cottage sits in the middle of the 600 acres that remain of the historic Edwinsford Estate, just yards from the gin clear water of the River Cothi, surrounded by the unspoilt river valley with miles of tracks on the doorstep providing beautiful walks.
- Day and weekly tickets are available for salmon, sea trout and brown trout fishing on the private, double bank 5 miles of the beautiful River Cothi that flows through the estate.
- Edwinsford is a working estate with a mix of field sports, farming and forestry. Our passion for conservation means you can see kingfishers, goshawks, merlins and curlew; otters playing by the river and clouds of butterflies and dragonflies above the ponds
- A lovely local pub, The Black Lion at Abergorlech, is within walking distance at the far western end of the estate. You will also find the entrance to the 6500 hectares of Brechfa Forest here with many trails for walking, mountain biking and riding.
- The National Trust properties of Dinefwr with Newton House, a ruined castle and nature reserve and Dolaucothi, the UK's only Roman gold mine are within a short drive. For gardeners, The National Botanic Gardens of Wales and Aberglasney Gardens are close by
- The wonderful beaches of the Gower peninsula can be reached in 40 minutes. Laugharne, the home of Dylan Thomas with its lovely coastline and castle, are an hour away. The stunning beaches and coastal path of Pembrokeshire make for a great day out.

Introducing
Sharon Pipe
When Sharon bought the estate in 2018 the cottage was derelict – she has renovated it with great care, creating a stylish place to stay whilst also minimising the carbon footprint of the property. It's powered by an air source heat pump, water comes from a bore hole, and the place is cosy with underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove. A charging point for electric cars is also provided.
We recently stayed at this enchanting place for a relaxing half-term holiday. This was a perfect place. Everything about it was delightful, starting from the immediate environs, which are fairytale-like with the beautiful river, many wild birds (many, many pheasants) and lovely walks starting from the front door. The cottage is spacious and cool, extremely tastefully decorated and lacking no comforts. Sharon, our hostess, was unstintingly kind and helpful in so many ways. We could not recommend this place more warmly.
