Discover ‘Alder Lodge’ perched on the edge of a beautiful 4 acre lake. This stunning lodge, 1 of 3 on the grounds, is in the perfect location to explore the delights that Carmarthenshire has to offer. It is located on a 50 acre small holding encompassing two fully stocked lakes and luxury wedding venue in the scenic Gwendraeth Valley. The lodge has been thoughtfully furnished to a high standard and offers floor to ceiling windows to the make the most of the views.

*Also see Willow Lodge.

The space
The mezzanine master bedroom overlooks the main lake where you can watch the resident swans. The property is centrally located and ideal to explore one of Wales’ top attractions, Pembrey Country Park with its many footpaths, 8 miles of golden sandy beach, 550 acres of woodlands, dri-ski slope and the longest toboggan run in Wales. A trip to Carmarthenshire is not complete without a visit to Laugharne, which was formerly home to famous Welsh poet Dylan Thomas, who described the charming village as ‘the strangest town in Wales’. A 40-minute drive and you can visit the stunning Gower Peninsula which is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and definitely worth a visit, or travelling west, Oakwood, Folly Farm and the famous walled town of Tenby. Beach 4 miles. Shops 4 miles, pub and restaurant 2 miles.

Other things to note
Our small holding is a working farm so there may be occasional machinery noise.
Our 4 acre course fishing lake is open to the public Monday to Friday 8am to 6:30pm and is free to our guests.
We hold occasional fishing matches on a Sunday. During matches, privacy to the lodge is kept as best as possible i.e a limited number of fishermen fish the furthest part of the lake.


We finished building our new Lake House in June 2025 and hope to open our Sunday restaurant from October 2025.
