Pressbox (Press Release) -
Need somewhere memorable for that last minute July week away this year? One Off Places have ensured that all of the following places still have availability of at least a week. As with any One Off Places property, their desirability means that peak season opportunities are rare - each of the below opportunities are due to last minute cancellations. We have supplied 5 properties in total – all located in Europe and all distinctive and characterful, plus in this case all ideal for a family holiday.
Wales – sleeps 4 in 2 bedrooms.
One week from Friday 10th July is available at Old Oak Barn in Carmarthenshire, West Wales. The owner will take only £400 for the week (down from £535) from One Off Places’ guests. A stunning barn conversion adjacent to 40 acres private woodland in West Wales. Old Oak Barn is self catering accommodation and is perfect for those wanting peace and privacy and is hidden away in its own valley but only 5 minutes from the A40 at St Clears near Carmarthen.
