A magnificent dairy farm, extending to over 335 acres, is on the market for the first time in 40 years

A “magnificent” working dairy farm, with three residential properties and extending to over 335 acres, is on the market for the first time in 40 years.

Llandilo Abercowin is situated in beautiful Wales, just 11 miles from Carmarthen, and is on the market through Knight Frank with a guide price of £5,500,000.

As the current owners have reached retirement age, it is a once in a lifetime opportunity for a new owner to take on the guardianship of this special place, be it as a working farm and family home, an environmental project and a business opportunity or, as it has been for the past 50 years, a combination of all these aspects.
