Pant-Teg is set high above the Teifi Valley, on the lower slopes of the Cambrian Mountains, between Tregaron (5miles - an old market town and Red Kite centre) and Lampeter (6 miles - a university town). This area of mid Wales will enchant you with its gentle mountains and unspoilt coastline, encircling pastureland threaded with rivers famous for sewin and salmon.

Pant-Teg (fair hollow), dating from about 1850 and originally a hill farm, rests in 4 acres of peaceful gardens for you to explore, with numerous benches to sit and relax whilst enjoying the magnificent valley views. The gardens are suited to wildlife, full of beautiful and unusual shrubs and flowers, and the ponds awash with lilies and various water loving plants and grasses. In our top field, a young wood has been planted, down to the banks of a pond stocked with rainbow trout (why not fish for your supper!) full of butterflies, dragonflies, newts, frogs and all manner of small mammals.

Many nesting boxes have been placed around the grounds and birds abound in our fields and hedgerows. The rare Red Kite and resident Buzzards can be seen gliding on the thermals above us and you might catch a glimpse of the beautiful white Barn Owl as it hunts at dusk.

Pant-Teg is an ideal base to relax and enjoy the peaceful tranquility of the countryside and yet within easy driving distance, along peaceful scenic country lanes, of the many attractions the surrounding area has to offer. For our more energetic guests, who enjoy outdoor pursuits, we have a dry-room, hosepipes and safe storage for bikes, rods etc.
