Our Comments: Self catering thatched cottage which is totally vegetarian. Guests are not allowed to eat meat or fish there. You can order organic vegan evening meals or hampers from the bloke who lives next door. This is apparently if he is in, so it might be best to check bloke next door hasn't got a busy schedule during your stay.
Location: Half a mile from Llanbydder, just off the B4337. Mind you, it’s probably best to check exactly how to get there, as there is a dirt track involved.
