The property includes a massive agricultural barn that animals were kept in. This barn has now been cleaned and tidied up a bit, the bottom half of the barn is now a play space with a trampoline, a basket ball hoop and a ride on tractor for the younger kids.
The original farmhouse (on the right) is now covered in external wall insulation.
the last owner made four footbridges and a network of paths on the land these paths have now been overgrown with brambles. At some point we would like to recover them.

I had a great experience with Sheila, Gliff, Conner and the two other workawayers. You really become part of the family, eating mostly together and chilling in the evenings.

Every Wednesday would be games night which is always good fun, particularly when the neighbour tenants come round! During the weekend and on my last day we were taken out to local sites, like the old castle in Llandeilo, walking up the Black Mountains in the Brecon Beacons, and visiting Carmarthen and it's nearby seaside town and castle. My highlight was most certainly the night before leaving where we visited the old pub in the next village along where folk music was being played, one extremely good night that was!
There was a lot of outdoorsy gardening, I helped clearing out ditches, moving wood to the Blue Barn, cutting down some bushes in the back garden, taking down some fences and done quite a bit of strimming, I also did a little bit of the polytunnel on more wet days as well.
I recommend these hosts to anyone thinking about going to Wales, you will never find yourself activities that's for sure!
I hope you guys will let me back some day, maybe in the Spring or Summer though, where I can enjoy longer days.
Many thanks for having me! 😁👍Vous pouvez seulement contacter les workawayers avec une adhésion active.
