The farm is situated in Cwmann, a village two miles from the University and Market Town of Lampeter in the picturesque Teifi Valley. Cwmann is almost equidistant from Carmarthen (23 miles) and Aberystwyth (26 miles). It is just 14.5 miles from the Georgian Harbour Town of Aberaeron and 21 miles from Newquay, both on the Ceredigion Heritage Coastline. The property enjoys privacy and seclusion and has excellent views over the Teifi Valley and unspoilt countryside.

On the East side, there is a small area planted with mature shrubs. From this garden area, a wooden foot bridge leads over a small stream to a nature – friendly garden with pond and shrubs. A gate leads from this area to the fields. Outside the cottage to the West is a cottage garden with mature shrubs joining on to large grassed areas, fenced from the adjoining fields. The LandThe land, extending to approximately 42.7 acres, is healthy, divided in to a number of enclosures. Some enclosures provide level fields; others are hillside. The farm is ring fenced. There is a conservation pond until recently stocked with Rainbow and Brown Trout.

LOCAL FACILITIESAmbitious sustainable development and regeneration visions for Lampeter and its surrounding villages will become operative over the coming years. Included in the plans is expansion of employment units at Lampeter Industrial Estate and creation of a Business Park comprising high quality office and work units. Already a considerable number of new residential buildings are underway, but the property has the benefit of being outside the main development areas. Whilst Cwmann has its own primary school, there is also primary and secondary education provided in Lampeter. Some children in the area commute to Llandovery Collage, a highly respected independent school. There are also buses to take students to Carmarthen and Aberystwyth Colleges.
