If travelling along the M4 into Wales, after crossing the Severn Bridge, continue on the M4 turning off at Junction 24, Newport onto the A449. Continue on this road then take the turning for the A40 to Abergavenny. Stay on the A40 through Abergavenny>Brecon>Llandovery and continue towards Llandeilo.
At Llanwrda, turn right onto the A482 towards Lampeter and continue on this road for approximately 7 miles. Ignore the first sign to Caio, go past Down Home Garage on your right over a small bridge and continue round two fairly sharp bends past a farm entrance with a post box opposite in a small lay-by, then take the next unmarked turning right up a small unsigned lane, continue past two bungalows on your right followed by a sharp right hand bend, up the hill and just as the road levels out you
will see a cream coloured house on your right and the cottage sits sideways on to the lane with the driveway just past it also on your right.
