Llwynywermod, Royal estate in Carmarthenshire, Wales.
Llwynywermod is a royal estate in Carmarthenshire, Wales, consisting of a main farmhouse, three smaller cottages, and a barn scattered across roughly 78 hectares (192 acres) near the village of Myddfai. The buildings sit in rolling countryside and retain the character of a traditional Welsh agricultural property.
The property has existed since the 13th century and once belonged to William Williams, a relative of Anne Boleyn. It later became the seat of the Griffies-Williams baronets before the Duchy of Cornwall purchased it in 2007.
The Welsh name means 'grove of the maiden', and the buildings follow traditional Carmarthenshire farmhouse design with local materials and craft techniques. Visitors renting the cottages experience rural Welsh domestic architecture as it has been adapted over generations.
Two of the cottages, North Range and West Range, can be rented as holiday accommodation from October to March. Bookings are handled directly through the Duchy of Cornwall management.
The Duchy of Cornwall paid roughly 1.2 million pounds for the property in 2007, which then became a residence for the then Prince of Wales during his visits to Wales. The renovations followed ecological principles and used native Welsh materials.
