This small coastal village is nestled between the traditional mining town of Llanelli and idyllic Burry Port, on the South West Wales coastline. It boasts an elevated position rising away from the coast, giving you views of the Gower Peninsula, and it is also home to the Amelia Earhart Plaque, which commemorates the first woman to fly across the Atlantic Ocean, who landed in the estuary near Pwll in June 1928. The village also has a local shop, pet shop and Post Office, as well as a few pubs. Venture over to the bustling harbour at Burry Port and watch the fishermen return to shore with their boats brimming with fish, or pay a visit to the 8-mile long Cefn Sidan beach and 550 acres of lush woodland at Pembrey Country Park.

Kevin and Roy could not have been more friendly or helpful. The icing on the cake is the glorious view from the conservatory and patio over the manicured gardens to the many ponds and lakes. We could have spent hours just watching the wildlife and our dog could explore it all. We loved it. A hidden gem.

Weather mixed but enough sunshine to let us get out and about every day including trips to Benllech (20 minute drive and a lovely long sandy beach), Red Wharf Bay (again 20 minutes away, good pub and bistro) and Amlwch (35 minutes drive, old port and copper mining museum). And of course there are still the amazing grounds to walk around (about 10 acres I guess?), with several lakes and ponds hosting ducks, greylag geese and goldfish. Kevin and Roy again very friendly and helpful. Can thoroughly recommend it.

The location was also great for us to visit the rest of the island, and was easy to get to. It was also ideal for our dog who enjoyed many wonderful walks around the lakes. Kevin the landowner was right next door, and was very knowledgeable on the ducks and geese that used the ponds, and was also available if we had any issues (we had none) We would highly recommended this location to everybody.
