Dulais Retreat

How it all Began 

L


It all started off some eight years ago where ideas over the kitchen table were being thrown about; we wanted a family business at our beloved home in Talgarreg. We set off by converting an outbuilding into a two bedded holiday cottage - which after many years where our late father who pumped all his time and efforts in building/renovating the empty shell it is now finally complete.


We have recently, been using all our energy in converting the small holding into a wedding venue. On 31 March 2018, we held our first ever wedding - a blessing held down by the lakes in our newly built band stand. Due to the unpredictable weather, in good old Wales, the guests were sat under our marquee gazing over at the couple celebrating their marriage. Here lays a great setting for wedding photographs.

The guests were then called to the marquee, situated on one of our precious fields overlooking the green, green fields of the valley. Our next steps in the near future, are to apply and hopefully become a registered wedding venue to hold legal weddings in the band stand, completing the second cottage (great as the bridal suite!), and having wooden lodges overlooking the lakes (and many more ideas and plans thereafter).
